The differences
What Evident does differently
- A log or a plan. Hevy is a quick log you fill in, with a program generator on Pro. Evident writes the whole plan and sets every weight, on every plan.
- One number, not a range. Hevy Trainer works in rep ranges and raises the weight once you top the range on every set. Evident gives each lift one rep goal and raises the weight when you beat it on your last set.
- Food in the same app. Hevy sends workouts to other apps for nutrition. Evident sets calories and macros from your goal and logs food with a barcode scan.
