Now, this is something special.
Marc-André ter Stegen is best known as the goalkeeper for FC Barcelona and the German national team. He’s an elite athlete at the top of his game and now he’s looking to share his training secrets with you.
Working alongside the Freeletics Coach team, Marc has created his very own limited edition Training Journey, Football Fit, designed to give you an insight into how he trains and what it takes to excel on the pitch.
Train like ter Stegen
For Marc, two aspects of training are particularly important: explosiveness and mobility. As a goalkeeper, developing these two components is key to his performance, which is why they play a central role in his Training Journey.
Explosiveness is vital for sprinting short distances and reacting to shots faster than any other player on the pitch. And because of this, mobility is crucial to ensure that the sudden and powerful movements he makes don’t lead to injury. In collaboration with the Freeletics Coach team, Marc devised workouts and Intervals that focus on both of these components, alongside the basic cardio and strength every footballer needs.

Over 12 weeks, get exclusive insights from Marc himself as you develop the skills, strength and technique needed to excel on the goal line in this bodyweight-only Training Journey.
