What is Liftle?
Liftle is a daily exercise guessing game that uses anatomy figures instead of letter grids. Each day you must identify one exercise within six guesses. The board displays a front-view and back-view body diagram, a three-level muscle activation legend (Activated, Mid, Inactive), a single guess field, and four feedback columns: EXERCISE, EQUIPMENT, MOVEMENT, and a percentage match indicator.
How to play Liftle
- Open liftle.fit and skip or click through the five-card welcome overlay.
- Enter an exercise name in the guess field, then click Guess.
- Check the four feedback columns to compare your guess with the target exercise by name, required equipment, movement pattern, and overall similarity percentage.
- Look at the front and back anatomy figures. Their colored muscle groups show which areas your guessed exercise activates.
- Use this feedback to choose your next guess and narrow the answer by equipment, movement category, or target muscle group.
- Complete the daily challenge within six attempts.
The board provides feedback through both text columns and visual anatomy diagrams. After each guess, the four columns reveal how close your answer is by comparing exercise name, equipment requirements, movement type, and a percentage match score.
The two body figures update with muscle activation levels marked by the three-tier legend: Activated, Mid, and Inactive. This visual feedback shows which muscle groups your guessed exercise engages, helping you rule out or confirm exercise categories based on primary and secondary muscle involvement.
Why play Liftle
Liftle translates fitness vocabulary into puzzle mechanics. If you train regularly, the feedback columns read like a workout log rather than a word game. The muscle activation diagrams create a visual reference that matches how lifters think about exercise selection: by target area, movement pattern, and equipment availability.
The game suits anyone familiar with resistance training who wants a short daily challenge that tests exercise knowledge instead of spelling or general trivia.
Tips for narrowing down the answer
Start with a compound movement that uses common equipment, such as a barbell squat or bench press. The initial feedback will reveal the movement category and equipment type, which eliminates large groups of exercises immediately.
Pay attention to the percentage column. A higher match score means your guess shares more attributes with the target. If you guess an upper-body push and see a low percentage, pivot to a pull or lower-body movement rather than trying variations within the same category.
Use the anatomy diagrams to confirm muscle involvement before submitting your next guess. If the front figure shows heavy quad activation but minimal chest coloring, you know the answer involves leg work rather than pressing. The legend runs from Activated at the top to Inactive at the bottom, so compare the intensity of highlighted areas across both views.
Popular questions
How many guesses does Liftle give you?
Six attempts total. The welcome card and the board both display this limit as a "6 tries" hint.
What do the two figures on the board show?
A front view and a back view of the same body, labeled FRONT and BACK. A vertical legend beside them reads Activated, Mid, and Inactive, indicating muscle engagement levels for the guessed exercise.
