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 recommends Rokman
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 recommends Rokman
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 recommends Rokman
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 recommends Rokman
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 recommends Rokman
The Ghurka challenge 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 were good and really helped push you along.
Graham Taylor recommends Rokman
Tough as old boots but very rewarding challenges, go there, sign up, get out there, and get it done... !!! Seriously these are good guys

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 if 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.
