Copyright free music for fitness videos

Copyright free music for fitness videos depends on whether the video is a montage or a lesson. The license allows both as uploads. The songs only sound right in one of them.

Montage, transformation, recap

A week of training, a before-and-after with no speech, a race recap, a Short of one hard set. Put one track under the pictures and leave the lyric up. This Time I Walk is a second-chance tone. After the Crown is a show-up-for-people tone. Pick the one that matches the video, not the one that is trending. See how to pick.

Form lessons and follow-alongs

If you are counting reps out loud for ten minutes, a vocal rap is the wrong bed. Use an instrumental from a source that allows that, or speak in silence and drop this catalog only on the open. See music under a voiceover.

Credit is optional. A paid ad for a supplement or a program is not this license. See ads.

Copyright free music for fitness videos, montage versus lesson

Copyright free music for fitness videos splits on the script. A transformation, a week of training, a race recap, and a Short of one hard effort are montages. One track, lyric up, cuts on the bars. This Time I Walk fits a second-chance story. After the Crown fits a video about training with other people. Pick the lyric the footage agrees with.

A form lesson, a follow-along, and a ten-minute cue track are lessons. You are talking the whole time. Leave the catalog on the open and the end, or leave it out. A vocal under “hinge at the hips” helps neither the cue nor the song. The voiceover guide is the detail.

Two songs are allowed if the video has two chapters, warm-up and work. Credit both if you credit either. Do not crossfade them into a new arrangement. That crossfade, if it rebuilds the records, slides toward a remix. Keep each song intact and cut between them.

Supplement ads and program ads are not the lesson and not the montage. They are ads. The license does not include them. YouTube’s claim page is what you would read if a match showed up on the organic lesson. It does not convert the ad into an organic post.

Label the timeline “lesson” or “montage” before you choose music. A lesson gets silence under the cues and, at most, a sting at the ends. A montage gets one song and on-screen text instead of a coach talking. If a video is both, split it: song on the montage chapter, silence on the teaching chapter, and a cut between them rather than a crossfade that rebuilds the track. If a sponsor wants the montage used as an ad for a program, pull that request out of the edit and email arctaholic@gmail.com before you lock the picture. The organic training video can still go up on your channel.

Questions

Can followers work out to the video in their house?

They can watch your video. That does not make each living room a licensed public performance, and it does not let them extract the song.

Can I use two songs, one for warm-up and one for the sets?

Yes. Credit both if you credit at all.
