ROOQ BOX

How do I wear my sensors?

The supplied straps have a small pocket for the sensors. Put the sensors in the pockets with the ROOQ Logo facing up and the QR Code facing down. Place the sensor pockets on the straps on the inside of your wrists, so that you can read the ROOQ Logo.

How do I know which sensor to wear on which hand?

Your sensors are smart and detect automatically on which hand they are located. There’s no right or left here.

How big and heavy are the sensors?

Every sensor weighs 12 grams, is 4.2 cm high, 3.2 cm wide and 9 mm thick.

Can I wear my ROOQs under normal boxing bandages?

Yes. However, you should still use the ROOQ straps so that the sensors are in the right place and the recording is error-free. Of course, you can also wrap your own bandages over them.

Can I wear my sensors underneath my boxing gloves?

Of course! The ROOQs were specially developed for use in boxing.

Can I also wear the ROOQs in sparring?

You definitely should!

Can I wash my ROOQs?

Your sensors are resistant to splashing water. This means you can hold them under running water or wipe them with a wet cloth. This will not affect the function of the sensors.

How do I wash my straps?

Your straps should be washed at 40 degrees maximum. Hand washing is better.

How can I dry my sensors if they get wet?

It’s easy. Just take a lint-free cloth and wipe over your sensors.

I lost my straps. Can I buy new ones?

You can now buy the straps separately as a 3-piece bundle in our shop.

Can I also buy a charging case?

Please contact our support and we will help you: support@rooq.de

Can I use my ROOQs internationally?

Yes, you can. The location of your training is completely independent and freely selectable. In order to evaluate your data you only need an internet connection.

Can I lend or give my sensors to someone else?

The sensors are linked to a user account. In other words, you can link them to a ROOQ app profile and use them for that app account whenever you want.

Important note: If you want to lend out your sensors, you have to disconnect yourself from your account. Only after this step can another athlete link them to their own account. We recommend that you do not share your ROOQs. If several athletes train with the same profile, the data will be skewed as, among other things, the individual weight of athletes is taken into account.

Can the ROOQs also detect kicks?

Not yet but we are always working on further developments of our technology.

App

How do I connect my sensors with the ROOQ App?

You can connect the sensors via bluetooth by using the ROOQ app on your smartphone.

How does data get from my sensors to the app?

Your ROOQs send all recorded data via Bluetooth in encrypted form to your app on your smartphone.

What happens to my data if I don’t have an internet connection right after I finished my training?

The collected data is backed up on your smartphone even without an Internet connection. However, for your evaluation an internet connection is necessary.

Where can I see my data?

You can see and manage your data through your App. And that is top secret. Only you can do that.

Which mobile phones work with ROOQ?

Here you can find a list with all compatible devices.

Will there be regular updates?

There will be regular updates for the app which will also automatically install updates to your sensors.

What is the price of the ROOQ App?

The app is free of charge. Just go to your app store and search for ROOQ.

How do I link my coach/club with my data?

If your coach/club is already registered in our coaching zone you can simply search for him/her in your app. Once you send him a connect request he can accept and you’re connected.

Does ROOQ work as a coach or how can I improve my skills with ROOQ?

Your sensors detect your performance data and your app shows you how you really train, but none of this replaces your coach. ROOQ visualizes your results and progress so that your training can be optimized in a way that wasn’t possible until now.

Does my trainer see all my data?

You as an athlete decide which data your coach can have access to.

Can my coach still see my data after I stopped the relationship?

As soon as you stop sharing your data, it can no longer be viewed by anyone else.

My training today felt much more intense than last week but why is the score from this training lower than last week?

The ROOQ Score doesn’t necessarily tell anything about the intensity of your training. It calculates the relevant data for boxing and uses them to determine the score. So there is a difference between 2 hours of pure strength training and 2 hours of different punch combinations followed by sparring.

What exactly is the ROOQ output in the punch score?

Great question! We calculate the physical momentum, also called “force”. We are able to do it since we calculate the speed of all your punches. The rest is ROOQ magic. We deliberately chose the momentum because we focus on the athlete’s performance which matters. This is more representative than softness or hardness of the target being hit.

How can I punch faster? Are there any recommended training programs?

Your coach is the one to determine that! The Coaching Zone gives him/her a holistic data driven view of your training. Simply work as a team to optimize your training results. More informations here.

Is it possible for beginners to train with ROOQ?

Of course it is. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or a professional. Everyone benefits from their ROOQ training data.

Can I use my ROOQs internationally?

Yes, you can. You can freely choose where and when to train. Anywhere, anytime. In order to evaluate yor data you only need an internet connection.

Why does ROOQ need my data regarding my age, weight and height?
