The Best Free Fitness Advent Calendar for Christmas 2023

Looking for a free fitness advent calendar to motivate and inspire you until Christmas?

Download the StrengthLog Workout Tracker app for free today, and take part in a yearly tradition together with half a million other users!

25 days of Christmas, 25 different workout challenges. All easy enough to be done by anyone, yet challenging enough to help you get in better shape.

Some that you can do at home, others you need to do at the gym.

All readily available in your phone, no matter if you use Android or iPhone.

What to expect from our free fitness advent calendar:

  • All calendar doors contain some form of traditional strength training.
  • A good mix of upper and lower body training.
  • Most calendar workouts will take less than ten minutes to finish, and won’t interfere with your regular training.
  • You need access to gym equipment for the weekday calendar doors, but during the weekends you’ll train using only your bodyweight.
  • You can save doors for later dates, when they suit your schedule better (the calendar is available in-app until midnight on New Year’s Eve).
  • If you save doors for later, you can add as many as you like to the same workout in the app.
  • The app helps you keep track of which doors you’ve opened and trained, and which you have left to finish.

This fitness calendar is available exclusively in the StrengthLog Workout Tracker app, that’s free to download and sign-up for!

When We Say It’s Free, We Mean It

There’s no restrictions on how many workouts you can log, or anything like that.

Yes, we have a premium offer in-app, that gives you access to a handful of hardcore strength training features (that most users don’t need) and our more advanced workouts and training programs. But most of the app is free, and best of all: there’s not even ads in the app!

The StrengthLog Fitness Advent Calendar is our yearly gift to all users, that we place up front and center on the startscreen during December.

Tap the calendar widget on your startscreen to open the calendar
Once you’ve downloaded version 6.2 of StrengthLog, the calendar will appear on your startscreen. Tap it to access the fitness calendar.

There truly is something for everyone – but everything might not be for everybody. And that’s fine. Most users in the past haven’t checked off every door in the calendar; just pick the ones you feel will enrich your training.

Take another look at the top image of this article. That wintery apartment building will be on your startscreen in the app during December. And for each day you check off in the calendar, we’ll hang a numbered Christmas wreath in the tree.

How will your building look when Christmas is over?

Frequently Asked Questions About StrengthLog’s Fitness Advent Calendar

  • What is it? Twenty-five different workout challenges, from December 1st to December 25th. Sometimes playful and easy, sometimes a bit tougher but maybe even more amusing.
  • Why? Because it’ll be fun! Because trying something new will make you happy! Because Christmas can be stressful and messy and it’s easy losing track of your training routine during all this, but we’ve made most of the workouts short and sweet, so that you can squeeze them in quickly and still feel the gratification of having trained that day too!
  • What equipment do I need to participate? It varies. Some days you’ll only need your body and Earth’s gravity, other days you’ll need to visit a gym.
  • Do I have to? Of course you do. On the other hand, absolutely not. Join in just as much or as little as you want.
  • Where do I find the workout calendar? It’s exclusive for users of our training app StrengthLog. The app (and calendar) is free to use, and it is available for both iOS and Android.
  • Why can’t I see the calendar in the app? You need to update to version 6.2! If you visit Google Play or App Store, it’s already waiting for you there.
  • How long does the calendar stay in the app? We’ll take it down once New Year’s Eve 2023 has come and gone. That means you have a good chance of opening and finishing all twenty-five doors in the calendar, but do not wait too long …
