Maximuscle Cyclone vs My Protein Hurrican Evo 24 February 2010 10:54 (permalink)
Lets bury this once and for all, which is the best?
 
Cyclone can be picked up on Ebay for £30 including p+p!
Hurricane is £29.95 plus p+p
 
Which is the best product?
 
Which is the best value taking into account you get 600g more in Hurricane?

    Ive just ordered 2 tubs of the Hurricane evo.

    If you take it as recommened ie twice a day then a tub will last just under 2 weeks.

    A single tub of cyclone will last just over a week.

    Hurricane is much better value for a very similar formula.

      Cyclone is awesome, but ridiculously expensive, never used Hurricane.. seems pretty expensive again.

      Out of the two i'd buy neither, Reflex one stop, hands down.

          All in one supps are a waste of money IMO, much better and cheaper to buy the ingredients separatly and mix as and when needed because all in ones seem to have too much of each ingredient, gram for gram so more than you actually need per serving.
          all my humble opinion ofcourse, not scientific fact.

            I recommend PHD synergy iso, 

            All in ones are not a waste a money, I believe that supplements are there to make your training and life more convenient so me personally buyings loads of different ingredients takes that away.

            With exception from glutamine, creatine that is only things I buy in bulk

                Cyclone is the only all-in-one that's ever done what it says on the tin for me.

                The price is astonishing for what you get though. Hurricane does nothing for me.

                  I've just had a look at Cyclone and I may be being thick, but the info seems wrong to me...

                  It was per serving (60g) the breakdown is:

                  Per 1 serving = 60g (1.5 scoops)
                  Energy 230kcal/962kJ
                  Protein 30g
                  Carbohydrate 21g
                  Total Fats (includes MCTs & EFAs) 4.68g

                  However, it also says this underneath:

                  Per 1 serving = 60g (1.5 scoops)
                  Dextrose 42g
                  Creatine Monohydrate 5.1g
                  Glutamine 5.1g
                  HMB® (Enzymatic Metabolite of Leucine) 1.5g
                  Potassium Bicarbonate 500mg
                  Sodium Bicarbonate 500mg
                  Beta-Ecdysterone (97%) from Suma 40mg
                  Bioperine 5mg
                  Chromium picolinate 200µg

                  If my thinking is correct, Dextrose is 100% carbs so that should be 42g out of 60g and if this is the case, how is there 30g protein per serving??

                    Surely the dextrose amount should be included in the carbs section. That would make 63g of carbs.

                      The info in bold is the nutritional breakdown, whereas where Dextrose is listed, that is the ingredients. I'm questioning how you get 21g of carbs from 42g of Dextrose. Also, if a serving weighs 60g, 42 of which is Dextrose, how on Earth can there be 30g protein??

                      Maybe this is why it's so expensive... They manage to cram 70 odd grams of nutrients into 60g lol

                        Maximuscle is a rip off.   They charge twice as much for the same product.   

                        I also love how they advertise: fuelling the forces, but then they have "special" deal with NAAFI only selling maximuscle on tour at 50 bucks a tub!

                          In the grand scheme of things, excluding price, id say there's fcuk all difference between the two.

                            Buy each different thing serperate. Much more for your money then.

                            Reflex one stop i have heard is decent though!

                              both are good products if you have the money.

                              value wise it would be my protein hurricane as you get more for your money ..

                              but overall value for money you would be better off buying each bit separately and mixing your own.

                                Hi,

                                We do have Hurricane XS of course which is £26.49 for 2.5kg. Evo is slightly more expensive due to the additonal added ingredients.

                                http://www.myprotein.co...urricane-xs-%282500g%29/

                                HXS works out at £10.60/kg compared to the £25.80/kg for Cyclone (£31 for 1.2kg) [price taken from ebay] so it is a much lower cost.

                                MP

                                  What extra is in the evo over the XS mate ?

                                  Ive just received 2 tubs of the evo.
