ATHLETES!
Welcome to Freeletics!
During the next 5 weeks, we will send you at least one Freeletics workout on every Monday.
Together, these workouts make up the Freeletics basic package. The Freeletics basic package
allows you to train Freeletics and make progress anywhere and anytime.
During the next weeks, you will get a first impression of what it is like to live in a healthy, athletic
and good-looking body – of what it is like to live and train Freeletics.
WHAT IS FREELETICS?
open in browser PRO version Are you a developer? Try out the HTML to PDF API pdfcrowd.com
Freeletics is a sport. You can train it anywhere and anytime. The core of Freeletics is a set of
predefined high-intensity workouts. All workouts are bodyweight only. You always do them as fast
as you can. They only take between 5 and 45min on average. Workout times will be used to
measure performances and progress and to compare to other athletes.
WHERE DO YOU TRAIN FREELETICS?

Parks, sports fields, gyms and the like are well suited. However, you can do most workouts at
home as well. For some no equipment is required, for others a pull-up bar, a wall or some sort of
running track. Also, Freeletics can be trained both alone and in a group.
WHY FREELETICS?
The high intensity leads to impressive results despite significantly reduced workout times. Also,
you only need your bodyweight. That means you can work out efficiently anywhere and anytime.
HARD WORK PAYS OFF!

In the next weeks you will astonish yourself.
Is it going to be exhausting? – Definitely.
Are you going to have sore muscles? – Most likely.
Are you going to look better? – Oh yea.
Are you going to be fitter? – Ohhh yea.
MAKE A DECISION!
We believe in you. In each and every one of you.
But it is way more important that you believe in yourselves. That is why you have to decide
consciously that you want to become a Free Athlete. “Maybe”, “try” and “as long as I can” are
nothing more than different names for failure. And failure is not an option.
GET THE APP!
No worries, nobody is alone. Every week, thousands of new athletes are joining. All of you have
the same goal. If you are an iOS users, download the Freeletics training app for free and connect
to other athletes around the world.

ATHLETES!
Here it is: Your first Freeletics workout! You will find a workout description and guidelines
regarding range of motions and exercise forms below.
APHRODITE
Your first workout is called Aphrodite. It does not require equipment. There are no mandatory
breaks. That means you are supposed to complete the workout without taking breaks - if
possible. It is important to complete it in the exact same order as stated below and to work
through it as fast as possible. Quitting is not an option.
WORKOUT STRUCTURE
5 Rounds Round 1 Round 2 Round 3 Round 4 Round 5
Burpees 50 40 30 20 10
Squats 50 40 30 20 10
Situps 50 40 30 20 10
BURPEES
Start: Start from a standing position. Knees, hips and shoulders are in a vertical line.
Movement: Make your chest touch the ground. Get back up (however you want to, not
necessarily a strict push-up) and perform a jump – both feet have to leave the ground, knees, hips
and shoulders have to be in a vertical line and the hands have to touch behind the head.
End: When your feet touch the ground again, one repetition is completed.
Additional remarks: Make sure to keep your core tight.
Modified version: If burpees are too difficult or become too difficult during the workout, do the
modified version:
Move into the push-up position without touching the ground with your chest.
SQUATS
Movement: Lower your hips below your knees.
End: Return to starting position to complete one repetition.
Additional remarks: Make sure to keep your weight on your heels, your chest up and your back
flat. Push your knees out and keep your torso as vertical as possible.
Modified version: If squats are too difficult or become too difficult during the workout, do the
modified version:
Lower your hips as far as you can instead of lowering them below your knees.
SITUPS
Start: Start from a sitting position. Both of your hands touch the ground in front of your feet.
Movement: Move your torso downwards and touch the ground behind your head with both hands.
Additional remarks: Your butt may never leave the ground. Make sure too keep your core tight.
Modified version: If situps are too difficult or become too difficult during the workout, do the
modified version:
Touch your knees instead of the ground in front of your feet.
WORKLOAD
In general, we recommend you to train Freeletics at least four times per week. Since this is your
first week, three times is fine as well.
Freeletics is really tough, especially at the beginning. Workout times exceeding an hour are
totally normal. Also, don’t be discouraged if you can’t make the workload from day one. It is all
part of the process. You will improve much faster than you think.
Your fastest time is called personal best (PB).
If you complete a workout without a single modified repetition, the workout time receives a star (*).
Star times are always ranked before workout times without a star, even if they are slower.
We recommend you to warm-up before every training session and to stretch afterwards. Jogging,
jumping jacks, arm circles, light stretching and the like are suitable to warm-up.
Please take a picture of your body before you train Freeletics the first time. Take a new one every
ten days. Pictures are important to evaluate physical changes. Since you only change a little
every day, you will not be able to track your progress properly without pictures.
Have fun in your first week as Free Athletes!

ATHLETES!
You made it through your first week of Freeletics. Probably also through sore muscles and
dizziness after working out. Congratulations!
Besides the workouts, Freeletics also contains so called MAX:

At MAX, you do as many repetitions of a certain exercise as possible in a given amount of time
(100sec or 300sec). Two MAX are part of the Freeletics basic package.
PUSH-UP MAX
Push-ups for 100 seconds. No breaks. As many repetitions as possible.
PUSH-UPS
Start: Start from a lying position. Chest touches the ground. Feet are no more than shoulder width
apart. The angles at your elbows may not exceed 90°
Movement: Push up until your arms are completely locked.
Additional remarks: Your hands have to leave the ground before every repetition. Your body has to
be in a line throughout the upward movement. Particularly, your chest may not leave the ground
before your hips and legs. Keep your abs and butt tight.
Modified Version: If push-ups are or become too difficult, do the modified version:
Perform the exercise from your knees.
SQUAT MAX
Squats for 300 seconds. No breaks. As many repetitions as possible.
SQUATS
modified version.
WORKLOAD
As we already said, we recommend you to train Freeletics at least four times per week. Use both
of the MAX as well as Aphrodite. If you can’t remember Aphrodite, look up the details in our email
from last week.
Just like with workouts, your best performance of a certain MAX is called PB. You also receive a
*, if you complete a MAX without modified repetitions. If you do a MAX, we recommend you to
choose whether you do it with or without * up front. Then do all repetitions in the according
version.
We recommend you to warm up before every MAX session and to stretch afterwards. Jogging,
jumping jacks, arm circles, light stretching and the like are suitable to warm up.
You know the game by now: Quitting? – Not an option.

Have fun!

ATHLETES!
By now, you know all workouts that are part of the Freeletics basic package. You might wonder
what is yet to come. Last but not least, a major Freeletics experience: Hell.
HELL WEEK
Every now and then we choose to go through hell to come out even stronger. Freeletics Hell
Weeks are all about reaching true exhaustion – reaching our performance limits several times
within a short period of time and with little rest – exceeding our own expectations. Hell weeks
made many of our athletes much stronger – both physically and mentally.
Hell Week means a lot of training. 7 days, 7 times Freeletics. All out: 7 days in a row. As always,
try to beat your PBs. This week, however, it is even more important to successfully complete
every single session. No matter if your body and mind get weaker. Remember: This is Freeletics.
Quitting is not an option.
Day 1: Dione or Zeus

Day 2: Squat MAX & Pushup MAX & Metis
Day 3: Dione
Day 4: Aphrodite
Day 5: Dione or Zeus
Day 6: Aphrodite
Day 7: Dione or Zeus & Metis & Squat MAX
Day 8, 9 and 10: Rest.
If you have to do more than one Workout or MAX at the same day, do them in one session.
Choose Dione if you rather want to burn fat or if you don’t have the equipment that is required for
Zeus. Choose Zeus if you rather want to build muscle.
Make sure to warm-up properly before every workout. Jogging, jumping jacks, arm circles and the
like are suited.
The following links will lead you to the workout descriptions:

Workout Week#1 – Aphrodite
Workout Week#2 – Squat and Pushup MAX
Workout Week#3 – Zeus and Dione
Workout Week#4 – Metis
You think you can’t make it?

No worries. You are neither the first, nor the last that will go through a Hell Week. Every single
one of you has what it takes! Yes, it’s going to be tough. Yes, it’s going to be painful. But the
feeling you will have once you made it will more than compensate your struggles.
Have fun and be strong!
