What Is ROXFIT Ultra
The free app stays free. Ultra is what's built on top.
ROXFIT Ultra is our premium subscription, built around two pillars: Compete and Athlete IQ. This guide covers what each one actually does, what you already get for free, and how to decide if Ultra's worth it for you.
1. What ROXFIT Ultra is
ROXFIT Ultra is our premium subscription. It sits on top of the free app, not instead of it. Workouts, HYPE, Race Goals, race tracking, results and your profile all stay free. Ultra adds a new layer on top of that: ways to compete that go beyond logging a session, and analysis that goes deeper than your splits.
Ultra is built around two core pillars:
- Compete - a new way to race previous efforts, challenge friends, and build your Compete Level as you train.
- Athlete IQ - a new way to understand your performance, through predictions, personalised pacing, and progression tracking.
2. Compete: race yourself, race friends, level up
Compete turns training into a game. Your challenges and benchmark workouts count toward your own persistent Compete Level, and Compete gives you ways to race that aren't just "do the workout and log it."
What's in it
| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
| Race Your Past Self | Race a previous effort and see your progress against it in real time. |
| Race Friends | Go head-to-head against a friend's effort, same workout, same target. |
| Compete Level | A persistent number built from your challenges and benchmark workouts. It's where you're at, not just what you did today. |
| Leaderboards | See where you rank against friends and the wider ROXFIT community. |
| Challenges | Time-limited events, always something on the calendar worth training for. |
In practice: instead of just completing a workout, you pick who or what you're racing, your own past attempt, a friend, or a challenge leaderboard, and the whole session gets paced against that target. Your Compete Level moves as a result.
Every athlete starts with four free challenges, and new free ones are released from time to time. Ultra opens every challenge and makes your level persistent.
3. Athlete IQ: understand your training and racing
Where Compete is the game, Athlete IQ is the analysis. It's built for the question every HYROX athlete asks after a race: where did I actually gain or lose time, and what do I do about it.
What's in it
| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
| Race Predictions | An estimate of what time you'll finish a race in, based on the information we know about you. |
| Personalised Pacing | Pacing and split recommendations built from your own race and training history, not a flat target time. |
| Multi-Race Analysis | See where time is gained or lost across your race history, not just within one race. |
| Performance Trends | Longer-term trends across your training and racing, not just a single session snapshot. |
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Surfaces where your biggest opportunities actually are, station by station. |
| Progress Tracking | Measures improvement over weeks, months and seasons. |
In practice: after a race or workout, instead of just seeing your splits, you see how they compare to your own history, what that means for your next race, and where your training time is actually best spent.
One thing that isn't changing: manual target-time Race Goals stays free. That's a permanent part of the free app, not a launch promotion. What's Ultra-only is personalised pacing built from your own data, plus full Athlete IQ analysis that goes beyond the short free summary you already get after a claimed race, workout or challenge.

6. Frequently asked questions
What is ROXFIT Ultra?
ROXFIT Ultra is ROXFIT's premium subscription, built around two pillars: Compete, which turns training into racing yourself, your friends, and a persistent Compete Level, and Athlete IQ, which gives you deeper insight into your performance with predictions, personalised pacing, and trend analysis across your races and training.
Does Ultra replace the free app?
No. Everything in the free ROXFIT app stays free, workouts, HYPE, Race Goals, race tracking, results and your profile. Ultra adds on top of it.
Is Race Goals still free with Ultra?
Manual target-time Race Goals is free permanently, for every athlete. Ultra adds personalised pacing built from your own race and training history on top of that.
What's the difference between Compete and Athlete IQ?
Compete is about racing, yourself, friends, and the community, and levelling up as you train. Athlete IQ is about understanding your performance through predictions, pacing and trend analysis. Most Ultra athletes use both together.
Do free athletes get any of this?
Yes. Every athlete starts with four free challenges, with new free ones released from time to time, plus one short AI summary after each claimed race, workout or challenge. Ultra opens every challenge and the full analysis.
