Frequently asked questions
Everything people ask us about the app, the records on race results and the data behind the numbers.
The app
Training plans, equipment, devices and what the subscription covers.
Do I need special equipment or a HYROX gym? +
No. TrainRox adapts to whatever you have, from a full commercial gym to a home setup with a barbell to bodyweight only. When you create your plan you select your available equipment and the app builds every session around it.
Is TrainRox free? +
Yes, TrainRox is free to download and use. A premium subscription unlocks full training plan access, advanced stats, and additional features. You can explore the app without paying anything upfront.
I've never done a HYROX race. Is this for me? +
Absolutely. TrainRox is built for all levels, from first-timers to seasoned competitors. Plans are tailored to your current fitness level and race date, so you'll always be training at the right intensity for where you are right now.
How do the training plans work? +
You pick your race date, set your fitness level, and choose your available equipment. TrainRox generates a structured multi-week plan with daily workouts that progress as race day approaches. You can edit days, swap sessions, or adjust volume at any time.
Does it work on iPhone and Android? +
Yes. TrainRox is available on both iOS and Android. Download it from the App Store or Google Play, and your data syncs across devices automatically.
Can I start if my race is only a few weeks away? +
We recommend at least four weeks to see meaningful gains, but TrainRox adapts to whatever time you have. The closer your race, the more the app focuses on the highest-impact sessions for your remaining timeline.
Can I use TrainRox if I'm not training for a specific race? +
Absolutely. Many athletes use TrainRox purely to build HYROX-style fitness (improving strength, endurance, and functional movement) without a race on the calendar. You can train without a target date and still get fully structured, progressive workouts.
Does it work with Apple Watch or other fitness trackers? +
Yes. TrainRox has an Apple Watch companion app, so you can glance at your workout (timers, sets, and reps) right from your wrist while you train. It also syncs with Apple Health and Strava, so your data flows into the ecosystem you already use automatically.
