EVL Trans4orm and its stim-free companion Lean Mode are exceptionally popular right now with cutting season right around the corner.
On this review we’re going to share with you our experience taking Trans4orm and Lean Mode, plus a cross comparison to their powdered versions (which include different formulas).
Kicking it off:
EVL Trans4orm: the stimulant based thermogenic
Here’s what we really liked about Trans4orm:
- The caffeine wasn’t overkill – 175 mg natural caffeine is a good crash-free sweet spot.
- Lots of choline for focus – contains both choline bitartrate and A-GPC.
- Reasonably inexpensive – current promos provide 60 caps for about $20.
Here’s what we weren’t fond of in Trans4orm:
- Under-dosed forskolin – a solid dose is upwards of 200 mg.
- Contains yohimbe – this isn’t the most enjoyable ingredient
- Formula change – the previous Trans4orm formula with synephrine and theacrine was better.
Trans4orm versus Trans4orm powder
With Trans4orm powder:
- All the ingredients in Trans4orm pill version minus green tea
- +1,000 mg CLA
- +1,000 mg L-carnitine tartrate
Price wise, each are the exact same cost per serving.
So: if it’s convenient for you to take the powdered version of Trans4orm, you’ll get more value out of it.
EVL Lean Mode: non-stimulant thermogenic
Here’s what we liked about Lean Mode:
- Incredibly inexpensive
Here’s what we weren’t fond of in Lean Mode:
- Entire formula seems pretty under-dosed
- Fad ingredients like green coffee bean extract
Lean Mode versus Lean Mode Powder
Lean Mode powder contains:
- All the ingredients found in lean mode
- ½ Garcinia extract
- ½ Green tea extract
- 2X Acetyl-l-carnitine
- +1,000 mg CLA
From our perspective, they reduced the ‘not-so-good-tasting’ ingredients and packed in a few that don’t taste bad. Net positive or negative? Hard to tell.
Comparing Trans4orm to Lean Mode
If you are dead-set on losing weight, Trans4orm powder is going to be the strongest of all 4 options here. But each has its own advantages…
Transform is better than Lean Mode for:
- Burning total calories
- Increasing energy
Lean Mode is better than Trans4orm for:
- Taking in the evening
- Stacking with caffeinated products
Regardless of which Evlution Nutrition fat burner seems most interesting to you, it’s quite clear to us that they were designed to be taken together.
So basically, you combine two $20 products to make one $40 good one.
This is the general trend with a lot of Evlution Nutrition products like their pre workout ENGN and vast lineup of different BCAA supplements.
Final Verdict on these EVL Fat Burners
Trans4orm is admirable and Lean Mode is a great fat burner accessory to add to your workout and diet routine, but neither are magic pills. The stimulants in each can up your caloric burn. But, not massively. So make sure you stick to your diet plan.
But if you want something gentle to take that will increase your energy and allow you to burn a few more calories a day – this is a winner. Plus the price isn’t bad at all either.
In general, we are not big fans of Evolution Nutrition products. But, Trans4orm is definitely one of their better products. When you consider price, and the fact that it doesn’t crack you out – it beats out 80% of the competition.
