Long awaited Cyclone Bar from Maximuscle.
This Cyclone Bar is a huge seller. Just 2 Maximuscle Cyclone bars a day and you get a recommended daily dose of Creatine (for weight training athletes). Mixing Creatine can be a pain for those that are rushed for time, often we forget to take it, or leave the pot at home when working away or late. By Making Maximuscle Cyclone Bars part of your daily diet you can make sure you never miss your Creatine shot, which, although I try and convince folks that a few days without Creatine won't mean over-night Creatine depletion many folks get paranoid about missing the daily dose, so, for those, Maximuscle Cyclone Bars will ease your troubled minds.
Initial taste verdict on Cyclone bars is... very slightly on the dry side, but I've nearly got through a whole box in 4 days. I find them even tastier than the Maximuscle Max-Meal bar. Definately a thumbs up for convienience and taste.

Maximuscle's own Cyclone Bar details follow -
Maximuscle Cylcone Bar is the first true muscle building and strength enhancing protein bar with Creatine, HMB & Glutamine...
Maximuscle Cyclone Bar is currently available in chocolate flavour with strawberry arriving Late 2003.
Maximuscle Cyclone is the no.1 selling ‘all-in-one’ advanced growth, strength and recovery product in Britain. So we thought, what could we do to enhance your enjoyment of this product – simple, produce a bar!
...and now the Maximuscle Cyclone bar is ready for you. These Cyclone bars are truly amazing. Each 60g bar contains a soft fluffy chocolate or strawberry centre, with a lactose and milk free real dark Belgian chocolate coating. With about 22g of protein per bar (whey isolates), and the lowest carbohydrate content when compared to other bars, the nutritional stats are spot on.
However, we wanted you to be really impressed... that’s why just 2 Maximuscle Cyclone bars per day give you a whopping: 10g of Creatine Monohydrate, a research proven 3g of HMB and 4g of Glutamine – the ideal amount for optimising growth hormone.
No other protein bar on the market contains such an impressive collection of muscle building and strength enhancing ingredients, especially when you consider the taste. In fact, when you try the bars you will not believe they contain what they do, because they taste so nice. (We keep Certificates of Analysis to prove every batch – so don’t worry!) When you compare the prices of all the ingredients, you’ll also find that the bars are actually very cost effective, as opposed to buying all the different supplements separately.
Regular use of Maximuscle Cyclone bars will, without a doubt, enhance recovery, lean muscle growth, strength and power. And even more so, when you combine them with the other amazing supplements you’ll find on this website.
