10/10 Extreme Milk Chocolate

Best-tasting flavour! I'm really happy with it, it's satisfying and tastes great. It doesn't upset my digestion or cause any bloating, which is a huge plus. It mixes easily and still tastes delicious with just water, which is perfect while I'm on a cut. Definitely recommend!

The grape and green apple amino energy flavor is very good. I bought it to see if I would like it, but I think I'll have to buy the larger size because I take it every day. I really liked it.

10/10 Double Rich Chocolate

Fast shipping in NZ, authentic product and great taste. I got the Double Rich Chocolate flavour and it mixes very smoothly with water or milk, no weird lumps. Protein quality is solid and recovery after training feels noticeably better. Price was also one of the best I could find locally for a 5lb tub. Would definitely buy again from Sprint Fit.
