Week 2: Lukas Flückiger

Training:

For me, in training, he songs must make me feel good, be emotional or remind me of a successful experience. With songs like this, I can motivate myself to get the maximum out of my body, which is the best and most important thing for training especially in winter when it's cold and wet.

  • David Guetta: "Gettin Over"
  • DJ Antoine "Republikka Sunshine"
  • Lady Gaga "Poker Face"
  • David Guetta "When Love Takes Over"

Relaxing:

It can't be a song with power. I need a song with emotions, which is also calm, so I can go with my thoughts to the next race or a nice place in my world.

  • Starsailor "Tell Me It's Not Over"
  • Leona Lewis "Bleeding Love"
  • Milow "Ayo Technology"
  • Daniel Merriweather "Change"
  • Nightwish "Angegl Fall First"
  • Razorlight "Wire to Wire"

Pre-Race:

The key thing about pre-race songs is the same as the training music. I must have a good experience with this song. The song must give me power and confident emotions, helpming me remember a good race I've had or another nice experience. It gives me power and adrenalin.

  • David Guetta "Memories"
  • Pitbull"I Know You Want Me"
  • Cascada "Evacuate the Dancefloor"
  • David Guetta "I Gotta Feeling"
  • Emiliana Torrini "Jungle Drum"

Traveling:

When I leave my home, mostly I listen to Swiss music, so I can remain with my thoughts in Switzerland and know I can come back to my family and friends when the travel is finished.

  • Bligg "0816 Mach Musig Ide Schwiz"
  • Gotthard "Heaven"
  • Subzonic "Tittelgschicht"
  • Bligg "Soeldner"
  • Baschi "Gib Mer a Chance"
