What is Golden FinisH ?Golden FinisH: Optimized Postworkout Recovery Complex  Key Attributes: - Nutrient Rich - Rapid Absorption - Precisely Flavored - Clinically Proven Anabolic Enzyme System - Sugar Free - 14g BCAA / EAA Per Serving - Aminogen and Carbogen- Optimal Growth, Nutrient Timing, and Amino Acid Assimilation - Enhanced Insulin Regulation - Muscle Glycogen Replenishment The perfect FinisH to your intense workout, Golden FinisH has been formulated specifically for the serious athlete. Research and development indicates that this nutrient rich formula will aid recovery and help stabilize blood sugar levels to avoid the post-workout "crash". By shuttling nutrients, electrolytes, and amino acids into muscle cells we are able to stimulate muscle groups more often for optimal growth.
Golden Protein Complex:
With Hydrolyzed Whey and Whey Isolate providing immediate and sustained amino acid delivery, we enhanced this complex with additional Leucine (the anabolic trigger). With Dicalcium Phosphate from our GFH Complex, the result is a mild tasting, highly effective, optimal recovery product that is easy on the stomach, and doesn't break the bank.
Anabolic Enzyme System:
To take this recovery and growth formula to the next level, we included the clinically proven anabolic enzyme system Aminogen and Carbogen. The result is more efficient utilization of key nutrients during the key post-workout recovery window, helping to trigger anabolism legally and naturally.
CoriCARB and Inulin for Nutrient Shuttling and Enhanced Insulin Regulation:
Our unique and proprietary sugar-free blend of premium, nutrient rich carbohydrate sources enhanced with Inulin will help the serious athlete replenish muscle glycogen and help shuttle amino acids / nutrients into the muscles while blood flow is optimal without the post-workout "crash" associated with other products on the market.
GFH Complex:
For optimal post-workout cellular anabolism, look no further than our GFH Complex. We included crucial Electrolytes and Taurine to work in synergy, keeping your muscles in an anabolic state at the cellular level and for as long as possible. As a bonus, it appears that this complex may even help reduce muscle cramping and unnecessary soreness.
FinisH every workout with Golden FinisH !!

Thanks for your interest CDub, it is competitively priced and at 20 servings it will last most lifters 1 month or more.

Just as long as it doesn't taste like a Golden Finish. These are expensive products to produce hence why you only see a month's supply. If they made a 2 or 3 month supply the product would cost well over $100 and would be hard to move. So is it a Pina Colada flavor? It's hard to judge from the label but that's what it appears to me. I'm wary of the flavoring of these type of products. Hydroslates just don't taste good so it's hard to flavor products of this nature. I've been using Torrent nad it's ok but I need a change of pace. I was considering IntraBolic but now will consider this too. Seems like no company offers sample packets for these products. So I have to wait for others to review the flavor as I'm a bit picky. I don't suppose there will be any samples?

 | QUOTE (christopher a;113285761) | Mixability: 10/10 - 3 scoops in 18 ounces of water in a shaker bottle, no clumps or any issues to speak of. Pretty smooth with 18 ounces, I will try less water next tomorrow to see how that works. My brother took 3 scoops with about 20 ounces in a glass and mixed it with a spoon. From what I saw it seemed smooth...I will try it with a glass and spoon tomorrow as well.
Taste: 5/10 (for now) - I say "for now" as many of these CL products tend to grow on me in terms of taste. First off, I knew I was in for something different when I first opened the jug and smelled the powder. No doubt, it's unique. The taste is unique as well. Nothing that I can't get down though. I personally couldn't care less how these products taste. It's my least important factor. The fact that the powder is so smooth and mixes so well makes it easy to get down so the taste isn't so bad.
Also, to be fair, this is my first PWO shake I've tried so I can't compare the taste to Torrent or 2:1:1 or anything. I'm imagining that making this stuff taste good is much harder compared to my plain jane 100% ON Whey. The instructions also recommend 40 ounces of water for a "smoother" tasting drink. I'll experiment with the ounces until I get something that tastes just right.
Again, I would have rated Purple Wraath a 3/10 when I first tried it. Now, I would rate it 10/10. Finding the right amount of water that works and allowing the taste to grow on you seem to be factors with CL products.
Effects: I didn't expect to have anything to post in terms of effects from a protein shake on day #1. The only weird thing I noticed was the feeling of a slight sugar rush that lasted about 15 minutes?!? Doesn't make sense as its sugarfree...could be insulin related? Also, I had less carbs in my stomach than normal at the time I took the shake. The label suggests taking 1/2 scoop to access tolerance. I usually do this with all other CL products. For GF, I decided to take a full 3 scoops so that could be related as well. Curious as to how I feel after I take it tomorrow.
Ingredients: I'm actually pretty happy about the fact that creatine is left out of this product. I take creatine separatley and see no reason to pay extra for creatine in a PWO shake. Carbs are 25g per serving. While this may seem low, its actually refreshing as I don't seem as bloated and filled up as with a product that may contain a bunch of sugar and carbs (such as cell-tech where I couldn't get a PWO meal in for 2 hours after I drank it).
20 grams of protein per serving? Not sure about it. In all fairness to CL, Torrent and 2:1:1 have similar amounts of protein. I'm used to taking double to triple the amount of protein. I will be taking my PWO meal within 30 minutes of consuming GF to make up for this.
This is just an initial review. There's really no way to give this kind of product a final rating without long-term use. I ordered 4 tubs so we'll see what happens over the next few months.

Oh yeah, and the color of the drink really is "gold". |
