| Kettlebell Swing | 75 reps | Grab the kettlebell with both hands, swing it between your legs, then launch it straight up to shoulder height. Core locked, arms straight |

| Ski Erg | 1000 m | Pull the cables down like you’re carving through snow. The harder you go, the faster you glide. |

| Farmers Carry | 200 m | Pick up a weight in each hand and walk it out, full-body strength in every step. |
| Row Erg | 1000 m | Perform a rowing stroke: Engage your legs and hips to power each stroke as you pull the handle. |
| Front Carry | 100 m | Walk the distance while holding the weight close, back straight, core tight. |
| Lunges | 100 m | Place the bag on your shoulders, step forward with one leg, and lower your hips until your knee touches the ground. Return to standing and repeat on the other leg. |

Am I fit enough for Fitrace?
We’re building a close-knit Fitrace Family where inclusivity comes first! Age, gender, and skill level don’t matter. However, we ask you to assess yourself before participating in Fitrace. It’s crucial for us that you can exercise safely!
Eager to take on the challenge but feeling a bit uncertain about your abilities? We recommend registering as a rookie in the doubles category. This way, you can share the load with another Fitracer. And training together is always more fun, right? Good luck with your preparation!
Can I bring my crew to cheer me on?
Absolutely! There’s nothing better than being cheered on from start to finish. For €10, your supporters can purchase a supporter ticket here and fully experience the unique Fitrace vibe.
