Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Elevate at none against Hybrid Calisthenics's shown. Elevate also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Hybrid Calisthenics's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (3.1K vs 10). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
