About The Program

We are a global community of amazing, positive and supportive people dedicated to making themselves better everyday through functional movements, variance and relative intensity.

Linchpin does not have a strength bias, we do not have a gymnastics bias, nor do we have a conditioning bias. We have a long term health and fitness bias.

We train in a manner designed to keep you happy, healthy and your quality of life as high as possible whether you are 25 or 65 years old. A key element of how we do this is by NOT overtraining you. We pour our heart and soul into one workout a day...and the rewards are tremendous.

Our Guiding Principles

At Linchpin we embrace Intensity over Volume.

We embrace variance. We want you to be well rounded.

We remove ego and that helps us make smart decisions.

We understand “Scaling” is not a bad word, as a matter of fact, intelligently scaling or modifying a workout is not only a critical factor for safety, but it is also a necessary and essential part of your long term fitness journey. Long story short….we encourage scaling. Scaling is cool!

We give heavy days the respect they deserve. On those days we just go heavy. There is no other workout crammed in. That way we don’t rush it...we focus on doing it right and we reap the benefits.

Our Guiding Principles

Something For Everyone - 5 Different Options

Every day we provide a detailed warm-up, 5 different workout options, goal times, demo/educational videos, optional accessory work, & much more.

The 5 daily workout options are…

  1. “Rx’d Workout” = this is the workout of the day.
  2. “Wild Card Option” = this option falls between Rx’d & Scaled.
  3. “Scaled Option” = reduced loading, fewer reps and/or simpler movements.
  4. “Limited Equipment Option” = dumbbell version of the workout.
  5. “No-Equipment Option” = all you need is your body & the ground.

Fun, Community & Support

Our focus is long-term health & fitness, having FUN, & engaging people in the most positive & supportive global community possible. The time you spend working out in your garage gym or anywhere else should be one of the best hours of your day. It should not be stressful, you should look forward to it. We believe “scaling/modifying” workouts to meet your needs is cool. We remove ego & help people make smart decisions, so their knees, backs & shoulders feel good. We want you training for the rest of your life, not just for a year or two. The people in our community make it so special. If you want to get fit, have fun & be supported by incredible people from all around the world focused on long term health & happiness, then welcome to CrossFit Linchpin.
