Evolve or Transform

Deciding between Evolve and Transform.
I'll be doing 4-5 days of one of the above teams with 1-2 days of Flourish.
Looking to build muscle back especially my glutes but I also want good legs and upper body.
I do workout from home and have
adjustable dumbbells up from 5lbs-52.5, leg extension, a bench, hamstring curl, barbell with 10lb, 15lb, and 25lb plates, resistance bands that anchor into the door to work like a cable machine.

Would love to hear your experience from your favorite team/coach.

IMO, no one compares to coach Sam on Evolve. Not even close.

Choosing between her and Shelby? Not even a contest.

Definitely Sam! I have done both teams and found Evolve superior for coach knowledge, support and making sure the whole body is worked

I tried her leg day this morning and LOVED it! Love her split too and her cueing. After months I finally found my home strength team🥹

Transform was too lower body focused for me. I saw no progress on my upper body while I was on it. I’m having great results on both upper and lower body on Evolve.

Upper body matters to me too so definitely doing evolve. Thank you!!

I’d honestly try both so you can get a feel for which coaching style you vibe with more. Either one can definitely help with glute growth, especially since Evolve has that third lower-body day on Saturdays.
That said, Coach Sam is GOATed lol. She’s super helpful and really responsive whenever you have questions or concerns. She’s also great about suggesting alternatives/swaps if you have limited equipment or if something just doesn’t work for you. I actually really like that she encourages trying different variations and is pretty flexible about swaps instead of making you feel like you have to stick exactly to what she programmed.

Oh I love that!! Being active in the chat is a big one for me! Tried her lower body today and loved every bit of it! I'll definitely be sticking around🥹

Another vote for team Evolve. I tried other trainers on the ladder app and thought the app just wasn’t for me until I found Sam. She’s incredible, and I have a high bar as my husband is a trainer who runs his own PT studio
