These days you see a lot of high intensity fat burners that border more on the lines of an energy pill or powder. They deliver solid doses of energy, thermogenesis and sometimes mood enhancement, encouraging an active lifestyle, however there are very few that stretch beyond the simple effects. EVLution Nutrition are one of the brands that have gone that extra mile with their complex weight loss solution Trans4orm. As well as coming through on their promise of the common two highlights thermogenesis and energy, the brand throw in a few more making the supplement a real all-round experience. Being a fat burner we of course had to put this one to the test over a number of weeks, where we saw the true power of Trans4orm and found out why it took so long for EVL to get this one on shelves.
In the first few days of taking EVL’s Trans4orm you’ll really only notice the immediate effects most of the more mainstream weight loss products offer. The ones we are talking about are of course the reliable thermogenesis and energy, two effects you can almost guarantee every brand can produce. In the case of Trans4orm the energy is definitely quite impressive, not to mention comes with a touch of focus. While those two do come hand in hand, they are kind of on different levels. The energy usually slides its way in roughly around 10 to 20 minutes after you take in the supplement, a little later than your common pre-workout. Also slightly different compared to a pre-workout, Trans4orm doesn’t exactly kick in or jump start the body. The fat burner’s energy is almost like a gradual dose of caffeine where it doesn’t get you going and have you overly alert until about an hour after you take it. As mentioned the focus is on a relatively different level as it hits its high point a lot sooner, although does maintain its productive mindset for about as long as Trans4orm’s energy lasts. While it would be difficult to put an exact time frame on the longevity of the product’s immediate effects, we can say they start to soften out after about three to four hours. Based on the usual amount of time people are awake in the day, it will leave most a tad energyless for an hour or two as after that time you will be able to throw back your second serving for the day.
The effect we did say basically comes hand in hand with energy, despite EVL kindly incorporating a nice dose of focus, is thermogenesis. One of the most well known effects in weight loss formulas does come in a number of different ways. You’ll have the overbearing heat that doesn’t necessarily always result in a large amount of sweat, then the opposite where you may have a large amount of sweat but not necessarily feel overly warm. There is of course the middle ground where the heat matches the sweat, however in Trans4orm the thermogenesis does fall into one of the earlier two areas. Compared to the amount of sweat you may produce during activity, you’re not likely to find your body heating up as much as you’ve noticed in other fat burners. Your temperature will rise, although not to a point where you feel the dripping sweat is justified. This can further be seen when you’re on the supplement and not doing cardio or working out as you’ll find your body heat doesn’t really change at all. While some may not be expect to build up a sweat during every day activities, we have seen thermogenesis done that well in other products where you’ll find yourself heating up from the lightest of movements. Though Trans4orm doesn’t sit well in that comparison, EVL do deliver on their promise of thermogenesis. It’s not as strong as we’ve seen in other supplements, but the effect is there and unlike its competitors the product does have more to offer.
As well as listing energy, focus and thermogenesis, EVL also promote a few other effects for Trans4orm, and that is where the supplement sets itself a part. Those first three highlights are as mentioned immediate effects, which you will likely notice right from the first dose. Once you get past a week or so, you’ll then be introduced the always appreciated cravings control and amplified weight loss. The thing with cravings control is that it’s always a “hit and miss” feature as quite a few companies promise it, however very few come through with it. Some of the best examples we know of can be found in our favorite flavored fat burner ANS Diablo and Myokem’s Pyroxamine. After using Trans4orm for a solid month, we can honestly say that EVL are on that small list of brands who deliver cravings control. Compared to our two favorites Diablo and Pyroxamine, Trans4orm isn’t as powerful, but has enough of the effect to successfully keep junk, treats and fast food off your mind, and make it a whole lot easier to say no.
A little earlier we did talk about having your results amplified, something Trans4orm has no trouble doing and after hearing all it has to offer, should come as no surprise. With an increase in energy, boosted thermogenesis during exercise, enhanced focus making sure you’re doing what you should be doing, and cravings control encouraging you to only put in what you need to. When it comes to weighing in or checking the mirror you’re going to have the upper hand. The EVL product essentially helps you out in all the areas you can be helped, which saw our reviewer drop an unexpected 6 to 7lbs across the month. Bare in mind this was in combination with a regular training program and proper diet, and by unexpected we mean the user was on a steady pace down and only noticed the drop once starting the one month cycle of Trans4orm. The supplement may very well have had other effects at work that we weren’t able to measure, although either way the product is without a doubt effective.
All in all Trans4orm really only proves something we already knew, and that is EVL know what they’re doing. As young as the brand is standing at about one and half years old, they’ve been nothing but successful since they launched going from store to store and supplement to supplement. While Trans4orm is relatively old as it arrived the week before the Olympia almost six months ago, it is actually the brand’s second most recent release, second to the individual formula CLA 1000. Despite its age the product has no trouble tackling all its current competitors, and needs no help taking on and comparing well against some of our long standing favorites. Anything that really goes beyond that cliché combination of energy and thermogenesis always seems to make for a great experience, more so when there are results to back it all up. The price on Trans4orm is a little bit expensive, however if you are a regular EVL shopper you’ll know that over at Bodybuilding.com deals go off almost every week, sometimes more than one at a time. At its usual $40 it is still a good buy, but when purchased in a stack or with a promotion it will get a lot closer to that kinder and extremely competitive $30 mark.
