Our platform eliminates the obstacles of race-day events, inviting you to push your limits with pure, unfiltered intensity.
The repetitiveness and lack of inspiration in current training routines is resulting in boredom, making the pursuit of fitness feel tedious and purposeless.
You don't have the time or patience to wait months for a race day event to come around. You need a kick up the arse now!
You don't want the hassle traveling to a far-away race day event, plus the huge expense of entering.
Regular distance challenges and races don't cut the mustard anymore. You have a desire for variety and novel challenges that will test your limits even further.
Hi, I'm Terry Rosoman, challenge enthusiast and Rokman Founder. Having experienced firsthand the transformative power of embracing physical challenges in my fitness journey, I came to recognise the profound impact it had on my mental well-being.
These challenges offer more than just physical exertion; they provide a sense of purpose and direction, pushing us to explore and expand our boundaries while fortifying our resilience to navigate life's daily stresses.
Observing the growing struggle among those around me to find time and motivation for training, and witnessing the toll it took on their mental health, I felt compelled to create Rokman. It's a platform designed to eliminate the barriers typically associated with race day events, igniting a passion for self-improvement among its members. Rokman aims to make pushing your limits achievable for anyone, regardless of their schedule or ability level.
Without meaningful trials of strength and courage we stagnate, weaken and never truly flourish in life. Let's embrace adversity and run the gauntlet together, to test and further and limits and reach our greatest potential.
An online challenge platform that offers monthly 4-week challenges series to test your limits around your everyday life, from any place, any time, all year round.
Our flexibility allows you to take part at your convenience in the privacy of your own location, with zero fancy workout equipment.
Each challenge is inspired by some of the world's most infamous fitness tests, providing the ultimate opportunity to test your limits.
Our innovative scoring system allows us to go far beyond regular distance challenges, helping you stay focussed and motivated on your fitness goals.

"The Team Rokman group is a huge part of the experience. The group is so friendly and supportive and it keeps you motivated. It's also very comforting to know that there are other people out there as daft as you doing tough challenges."
Jamie Stephenson
"I use the Rokman challenges as a coping mechanism. They keep me on the straight and narrow, helping me to keep my health and wellbeing in check. Embrace it, enjoy it and push yourself as hard as you can. You might just surprise yourself!"
Dean Wright
"Being part of Team Rokman has been an extremely positive experience for me. I was starting to fall out of love with running. So, whilst surfing the net for challenge races I stumbled upon Rokman. The rest, as they say, is history..."

Rokman challenges are a great way of keeping motivated and to keep moving. I have a job that involves lots of desk work these days, as well as a young family, so it important to me I get out and exercise. The challenges throw things in that I perhaps wouldn’t do or think to do.

You've heard of the Beep Test? Well, this is like the Beep Test on a bad day. A really bad day.
Choose your starting time limit and then keep covering a distance of 400m within that limit until failure. However, here's the kicker. After each successful split, the time limit in which to complete the next split is lessened by 15 seconds. The test continues until the challenger fails to cover the distance within the required time.

Like the Pressure Cooker Quarter Mile Challenge, this test requires participants to run mile split times for as long as possible starting with the target time given. However, after each split, the time limit per mile is lessened by 30 seconds. The challenge continues until the challenger fails to run the target distance in the target time.

Chris Flemmer
I love the challenges. They are just right to push me outside of my comfort zone. The support from fellow competitors is awesome as the focused goal of the group is to challenge each other to be better.
Paul McDonald
Now completed my second challenge in a row and really starting to feel the benefits. The challenges are varied and help to hit all the muscle groups whilst having an element of fun.
Dennis Collins

Vicky Shipman
Absolutely love the Rokman challenge series. I like the way only one activity brief is released each week as it allows you to focus and fully engage with the challenge, there is always great support in the facebook group... will definitely be coming back for more!
Adam Badat
I love a challenge and this was the perfect fit. It was a brand new start for me after mostly gym based bodybuilding style training for years. It’s really improved my cardio and functional ability. The team are very supportive and responsive and the challenges are tough but fun.
Graham Berry
I’ve just completed the High Walk challenge (UK Special Forces) and loved it. It changed-up my normal running regime, challenged me physically, pushed me mentally as I wanted to succeed and did, I got sore legs, a pip and certificate to be proud of and a true sense of achievement.
Josie Cheshire
I found this a challenge but achievable. It's made me realise I'm made of tougher stuff than I thought. The Team Rokman Facebook group is also encouraging and everyone is super friendly. I've already signed up for another month.
Steve Sherman
Good challenges, able to fit in around training and work, all efforts scored whatever your level. Great support from the community. Nice to do something different.
Andy Laws
The challenges was great, you could choose a level that suited you but still pushed you as you were trying to reach times and targets within your level. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking to push themselves that bit harder. The chat and motivation within the group was good and really helped push you along.
Graham Taylor
Tough as old boots but very rewarding challenges, go there, sign up, get out there, and get it done... !!! Seriously these are good guys
Worst case scenario is you invest in Rokman and you end up hating it. Well, we have a solution for that. If you complete the series and thought it was a complete waste of time we will refund you 100% of your money immediately.

How does it work?
How does it work?
How long do we have to complete each challenge?
We recommend that you complete each challenge within 7-days from the date of issue. However, we understand that life can often get in the way, so that’s why accept submissions up until 7-days after the end of the series.
What is someone cheats?
We do our very best to weed out any cheating by asking people to evidence their challenge attempts. However, due to the nature of this being an online challenge series, it’s not 100% fool proof.We have to take everyone’s submissions at face-value. If we can confidently identify people either cheating or doing the challenge incorrectly, we will notify the competitor privately via email.At the end of the day, the leaderboard is just a bit of competitive fun. These challenges are personal tests of resilience. If people decide to cheat, they’re only cheating themselves. If you concentrate on yourself and give your best honest performance then you can hold your head high at the end of the day.
Do you offer refunds?
Unfortunately, we unable to offer refunds on challenge series entry, however, we do offer transfers. If you’re unable to take part in this challenge series, let us know and we can transfer you on to an alternative series.
