”MORE GAME FEATURES FOR NEVER-ENDING FITNESS MOTIVATION
PROGRESSION: YOUR PATH TO GLORY!
Climb the ranks! Battle your way through increasingly challenging Leagues and Arenas.
Trophies = Your Fitness Rank
- Earn Trophies with Every Win: Win battles to gain Trophies and move up the ranks; lose and you’ll drop Trophies, ensuring you’re always matched perfectly.
- Dynamic Difficulty Matching: The number of Trophies you win or lose is based on how close the battle was—big wins push you up faster.
- Always Stay Challenged: This guarantees that every battle is competitive, driving continuous fitness improvement!
Move Up To Higher Leagues!
Do you have what it takes to make it to the top Leagues?
- League Placement: After your onboarding battles, you’ll be placed in a League based on your performance and personal fitness level.
- Battle Through 19 Leagues: From Bronze, to Silver, all the way up to Pro, you’ll always have a new goal to set your sights on… and then brag about.

10 Beautiful Arenas Per League
Each League contains 10 Arenas, with Arena 1 being the entry point and Arena 10 representing mastery of that League.
As you win battles and earn Trophies, you’ll climb from one Arena to the next, facing increasingly skilled opponents along the way.
Each new Arena isn’t just a number – it’s a whole new environment!
Reaching a higher Arena is a tangible marker of your progress, something you can proudly share with friends and fellow warriors.
Fight Epic Arena Bosses!
Advancing to the next Arena isn’t just about accumulating Trophies – you’ll need to defeat the Arena Boss first.
These specially designed battles are intentionally challenging, requiring you to draw on everything you’ve learned and developed. They’re the final exam before promotion, ensuring you’re truly ready for the next level of competition.
These victories aren’t just digital – they represent real physical achievements as you’ve become stronger, more skilled, and more physically capable.
SPORTSCASTERS AND COACHES
Those aren’t just random soundbites—they’re carefully crafted personas designed to enhance your workout experience, keep you motivated, and add fun and humor!
They know all about you! Using advanced AI, they know you by name, your Black Box VR history, the current game state, and many more details that make them truly personalized for you.
- Sportscasters: Your epic battle narrators.
- Coaches: Your personal fitness guides and motivators.
