Blowing up at the wall balls because you went out too hard on run one? That's a pacing problem, not a fitness problem. ROX-strat builds a personalized Hyrox® pacing plan from your 5K time, your station PRs, and how aggressive you want to race. On race day, your Apple Watch or Garmin watch tells you whether you're ahead, on, or behind your plan — segment by segment, all 31 of them. New here? Your first 90 days of ROX-strat Pro are free, no card required. WHAT YOU GET (FREE) • PFT onboarding — a personal fitness test that captures your baselines • Simulator — a finish range from your 5K and two station times, narrowing with every station PR, a PFT or an imported race • Live Race Ghost on Apple Watch — ahead / on / behind and your heart rate, in real time • Garmin watch app — your race plan, live pacing and the PFT on your Garmin, paired with this app • Roxzone guide — pacing through every transition • Official result import — pull your HYROX result from the results site into Race History; your first import is free, and ROX-strat Pro covers every import after that WHAT'S IN ROX-STRAT PRO • Live Readiness Score — HRV and sleep from Apple Health, read as race-day readiness • Strava sync — read-only, to pull your training history • Fatigue Sliders — hand-tune the fatigue curve to your body • CrossFit Converter — turn CF benchmarks into Hyrox station projections HOW IT WORKS Run the PFT once to set your baselines. Simulate your race across 8 × 1km runs, 8 stations, and the Roxzone transitions — 31 segments in all (Ski Erg, Sled Push, Sled Pull, Burpee Broad Jumps, Rowing, Farmers Carry, Sandbag Lunges, Wall Balls). Then race with the ghost on your wrist. WHY ATHLETES TRUST IT Real race data — the Simulator reads how athletes at your running level actually race, and your raw Apple Health data never leaves your phone. You sign in with Apple, with Google or with a code we email you, so there's no separate password. Apple Watch native, with sub-100ms haptics. SUBSCRIPTION Every new install gets the first 90 days of ROX-strat Pro free — no card required. After that, ROX-strat Pro is $19.99/year, with a 3-month free trial for new subscribers. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings. terms of use (eula): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ privacy policy: https://rox-strat-legal.pages.dev/privacy ABOUT HYROX® Not affiliated with HYROX® or Hyrox World GmbH. PRIVACY Your training data syncs to our own server in Frankfurt (EU), so it follows you to a new phone and comes back after a reinstall. We don't store your name or your email (only a scrambled fingerprint of it, so your account can be found again), and your raw Apple Health data stays on your phone. Delete your account in the app and the server copy goes with it. We don't run ads or tracking.
