Quietly strong, that's Bailey!
"Bailey is newer to our community. What sticks out to me is how strong she is and how well she moves the barbell. She doesn't say a lot with words, but when she lifts...DANG!" - Coach Emily -
Glad to have you in our morning community Bailey, keep lifting 😎!

CERTIFIED!!!
COACH SOPHIE
American Council on Exercise (ACE) Certified Personal Trainer
We would like to congratulate coach Sophie on completing her certification as an ACE personal trainer. She began coaching with us in November in a group class atmosphere and hopes to use this certification to help coach those in group class and expand her personal training clients.
"I hope to use this certification to help me provide better one on one training, from creating quality programming for personal training to being equipped with the background and skills to discuss client needs and goals."
We are excited to have coach Sophie on our team positively impacting those in our community! 😃
Our athletes goals change all the time. Our job as coaches is to make sure we are aware of their goals so when they change we can adjust how we coach them.
Drew went from bulking and gaining strength as his goals to cutting and getting better at his gymnastics!
The cool thing about Drew is he is so consistent and hit is first goal, and now he wants more!!!
Down 9 lbs during his first cut, pull ups and double unders will definitely get easier!
Nice work drew!

We are excited to see her grow and reach her goal of playing college softball!
Keep working hard Emily!

Commonly asked questions in regards to what’s happening in our gym for Friday Night Lights for the CrossFit Open (2/25, 3/4 , 3/11 5-7pm):
Q: How much does it cost to participate in Friday Night Lights?
A: Members can participate for Free! Not a member, now is the perfect time to join!! (www.crossfitlincoln.com)
Q: How do I sign up?
A: You will sign up just like you would for class. The only difference is it will be a heat time on Friday nights (2/25, 3/4, 3/11 5-7pm). Still on Wodify and the heats will open the night before to sign up.
Q: Do I have to have a judge?
A: All athletes during Friday Night Lights will have a judge during their heat. This is for a couple reasons. 1. To keep the competitive feel 2. To hold all athletes to the same standards 3. To build our community, supporting other athletes as they complete the Open workout.
Q: Do I have to judge?
A: This year is a little different. We are asking all athletes to judge the athletes in the heat following theirs. This is for a couple reasons 1. This is a big builder for our community. Where all athletes get to learn the standards and help hold their fellow athletes accountable and encourage them along the way 2. It’s fun!!! 3. It is nice to not have to count your reps once in awhile 😜
Q: Do I have to take the judges course?
A: Short answer is no. We do encourage everyone to take the judges course. It is a really great course educating everyone on what standards in each movement looks like both to help you as an athlete and support others in their journey. If you want to take the judges course here is the link: Judges Course
Q: I can only make it to 2 Fridays, Can I still participate?
A: Yes, of course! Come for 1, 2, or all three Fridays!
Q: Can my family come watch?
A: This is dependent on Covid. Currently family members are welcome to watch and hangout in the designated area. We encourage everyone not competing to wear a mask and keep a safe distance from others.
Q: I am nervous. What should I do?
A: PARTICIPATE!!! If you are nervous you can always come watch the first night and see what you're missing :)
Q: Will there be scaling options? I can’t do muscle ups, or pull ups yet…Can I participate?
A: YES!! All workouts will have a scaled version released as well. It will be all inclusive. The Open is where a lot of firsts happen, so maybe this is the time to get that first pull up!
