Vintage Build – Post Workout Recovery & Muscle Building Powder Drink for Muscular Strength & Growth - Reduces Soreness – Creatine Monohydrate, BCAAs, L-Glutamine – Black Cherry Flavor – 324g

What can I say about this product that hasn't already been said? In short, it works. It works as advertised. But you may be reading my humble review wanting a bit more information and validation. Perhaps, you're like me, one of the "classic hard-gainers" that have tried a bunch of workouts, supplements, and gimmicks in order to gain size naturally. Let me tell you, from one hard-gainer to another, don't waste anymore time, buy this product to help you in your workouts. Here's my disclaimer and advice to those who are looking for a miracle: There's never any magic "muscle in a bottle." It largely depends on diet and consistency in exercise. You need to eat (more than you think), and you need to consistently train smart and hard. However, Vintage Build is probably the closest you can get to the mythical muscle bottle. It most definitely will help take you where you want to go faster. Here's the skinny (pun intended): How it worked for me: - My muscles have so much more endurance. I hit more reps on every exercise. - My muscles have noticeably gotten denser, harder after recommended use for one month. - My rest times between sets have gone down. I can jump in and do just as many reps as the previous set. - Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is practically a thing of the past at this point. I can train the same muscle groups more often. How it will work for you: - Most likely the same way it worked for me and about 1,600+ people. Size? Yeah, it will come. I have noticed a small increase after one month personally, and I've upped the dosage to two scoops since ordering my second bottle, and so far, so awesome. My workout today was unbelievable. I can only expect greater results from here on out. If you have a harder time than usual putting on mass, double the dose. In comparison to other products, I don't think there's much comparison. The simple ingredients simply work. Everything is high quality, and the powder mixes well. The only thing I'll say against it, is that the flavor might be too "intense" or not sweet enough for some people (I've tried both lemon lime, and berry). This is not enough for me knock off a star or really complain about it, because both flavors mix well with orange juice and lemonade (and make a more tasty post-workout refreshment that way, in my opinion). If you're worried about flavor, don't. It's not all that bad, and the product works just as well mixed with juice. In addition, for those of you who appreciate the little things, the scoop has been at the top of the container both times when I received my order. This stuff is amazing, and it's worth every dollar. Don't waste any more time my friend. If you want to train hard and gain, include Vintage Build in your program.

I use Vintage Build 3-in-1 Essential Muscle Builder (BCAA powder) pretty much daily, during workouts and recovery. I find it boost my energy while training and helps me recover. For recovery, I also include a scoop of collagen. I actually like the lemon-lime flavor (haven't tried the berry, sticking with what I like). Also like there is no sugar or artificial flavors. I'm not usually a fan of the taste of stevia, but find this product tastes good. I feel like I get an energy boost and recover faster when taking BCAA's, but can't say scientifically. I like the addition of Creatine, supposedly helps hydration at the cellular level. Malic acid, though listed as an inert ingredient, may also have health benefits. I have no gut or digestion issues, or gas, associated with using this product. At one to two scoops daily, it's likely not a significant source of protein, but I’ve sworn by high-quality BCAA's in water while working out to increase my stamina, particularly while bicycling. From the ingredients listed, and the reputation, Vintage Build seems to be one of the better products out there. I’m very satisfied with my first bottle and plan to buy more. Update: Tried the berry flavor on my 2nd purchase and not as satisfied with the berry flavor. Berry flavor is just OK, not great (or all that bad, a little chalky tasting, but perfectly drinkable). For my taste, I like the lemon-lime, and just re-ordered more.

I'll start out by saying that the only reason I gave this product four stars is the Fresh Berries flavor just isn't that great, especially if you are doing two scoops at a time. I actually ordered the Lemon Lime flavor but I was sent the wrong one and me being a little impatient I decided to just use the Fresh berries. Other than that this is a great product. It ACTUALLY dissolves in water unlike most other products, especially ones that have Creatine in them. I can't say too much on my results in the gym since my schedule didn't let me make it to the gym much shortly after I purchased this product. The BCAAs do work pretty well though since I've continued taking it even without working out and still maintained a good deal of muscle. On another note if you're a person who enjoys the little things like I do, the scoop they send with it has a long handle so you can always find it after you shake up the container instead of digging around for the dinky little thing that some other products come with.

This is an excellent recovery drink for people with food allergies. It definitely helps with muscle recovery after intense workouts and restores energy with very few calories and very quick recovery time. Excellent for long-term use and well worth the price. The lemon flavor is very pleasant. Just shake it in a sport bottle with a couple ice cubes and water.

I have been using OSL's Vintage Build for about a year now and I thought it was time I give it some credit. As I was getting into weightlifting, I saw an ad on Facebook for Build and I decided to give it a shot. I had never taken a Creatine or BCAA supplement before, and was relying on whey protein for recovery and was not getting much results. After using Vintage Build, I noticed I was not as sore as I was before and I could lift heavier. Very quickly, I could see I was gaining muscle. Now weightlifting and body weight training are a part of my daily routine, and I take Vintage Build as part of my post-workout. Since taking Build, along with a healthy diet and plenty of exercise, I have gotten so much closer to obtaining the physique I want. I recommend the Lemon-Lime flavor over the Fresh Berries. I started with Fresh Berries but have now switched to Lemon-Lime, because the flavor is much improved. The mixture is still bitter but it is better. I also prefer to take Build apart from my protein shake, because mixing it made both seem to taste worse. Also, Build will make you super thirsty, so make sure you drink plenty of water. You will also likely have to piss more frequently. My only issue is that the container is too small and I wish it came it a bigger size.

Man did this taste awful! With old school products, you can be sure that the ingredients and quality are of an impeccable quality, and maybe I messed up ordering the lemon-lime flavor (lot of people in the reviews went for the fresh berries) and jeez this tasted like laundry detergent. This is the first time I’m ever returning a product on Amazon and I’ll be headed over soon to return it. I’m probably just gonna order a creatine from my go to brand (the German creatine monohydrate you find on Amazon) and look elsewhere for BCAAs. Maybe the other flavors are really good but the lemon-lime was a major miss. Again, I still fully support old school products (delicious protein powder, I ordered the tiramisu and it was amazing)

I want to rate my experience with OSL products and the company itself! I originally ordered Vintage Blast in late October. Five stars on everything! Only problem is that I noticed myself getting dizzy and a bit nauseous later in the day. After playing with every variable I could think of, I reached out to OSL to talk about the issue. Within a day Steve contacted me, and we both decided that instead of a refund I would try Vintage Build. Steve was great, super friendly (even through email), and was understanding while fully endorsing OSL. I made it clear that I felt like I was definitely in the minority of people having a negative side-effect from an OSL product and was eager to make something work. Vintage Build arrived! Here's my story. ....Wow. Just Wow. Something that might be specifically helpful: First: I work hard. I work 10-11 hour days laying patios or landscaping in the cold or the heat. It's often brutal and as I've aged it's become more difficult to mentally be able to say "I'm not tired I can still lift" at the end of each day. Second: I'm 5'10", 35years old, and at the time of starting Build I was 235lbs which is unacceptable to me. Ideally I should be 210-215. Third: As someone from an obesity/diabetes/cancer prevalent family, I try to monitor how I can build muscle and not bulk. So...back to "WOW"....Wow! Here's how I do it: I consume a full serving of build. In the morning I mix half the serving, and a teaspoon of creatine/teaspoon of beta-alanine into 64oz of water (vacuum insulated bottle). I consume that throughout the day. If I finish it (usually do), I just refill with water only. When I leave work, I change/wash up and get to the gym, work out and go home, consume the other half a Build serving in 20 oz of water cut in lemon juice and some cranberry juice with a separate protein shake (I add the juice to get the carb intake a little higher to facilitate absorption). Them I refill a 20oz bottle with water and 1-2 table spoons of apple cider vinegar to get my blood sugar to drop as low as possible when I get to sleep. I also take fish oil and 8000iu's of D3 in the morning. Results: Mental: Fantastic. I mean I feel as motivated to get to the gym as I did when I was 25. Build has literally given me my edge back. I know when I get into the weight room that I can face challenges and have a chance to succeed. Physical: At the time of starting build I was 235. I am now 221 when I weigh in, in the morning. I have lost close to 15lbs, BUT I have put an inch on my arms, 2" on my chest. All of my exercises have exploded. I cannot go too heavy on flat bench anymore because of an old shoulder injury, but with build I am able to rep 225 for 5x12 confidently. Overall OSL is a fantastic company! Using your products has played a HUGE part of literally reshaping my approach to health and fitness in my life. Cannot thank you guys enough. Cut season is coming! Let's see what I can do about losing more weight with diet approach.

I'd like to start off saying I am a loyal old school labs customer and love all the products they offer and use most of them on a daily basis. With that being said, I was extremely disappointed with the Vintage build BCAA powder. I ordered the lemon lime flavor and it is absolutely terrible. It reminds me of Gatorade mixed with ground up Tylenol because it is so bitter. I'm so sad this product is so inedible because I absolutely love all of their other products and am a huge fan. There are so many other BCAA products on the market with the same ingredients that have amazing flavors. Stay away from this product due to taste but please don't let it discourage you from there other products which I find amazing. I guess they can't win then all!
