The differences
What Evident does differently
- Evident decides your next weight. Liftoff shows what you did last time and your estimated max. Evident prescribes the weight and one rep goal for every set, and moves the weight up the day you beat it.
- Ranks against your own size. Liftoff scores lifts on a 1 to 1,000 rating with leaderboards. Evident scores each lift against standards for your sex, bodyweight and age, from Iron to Radiant, three steps per rank.
- Photos as proof. Evident lines up your progress photos from day one to now and reads your physique from a photo. Liftoff focuses on body measurements.
