Founded and operated by former U.S. Navy Seal and longtime CrossFit coach and analyst Pat Sherwood, CrossFit Linchpin is now offering this Gym Subscription Training Program, designed exclusively for use with the BTWB App. This program is intended to help streamline the day-to-day lives of gym owners and coaches by providing high-variance daily workouts suited to a wide range of athletes. A simplified Linchpin subscription plan for individual athletes is also available, sold separately.
The Linchpin private track for Gym Owners delivers programming 7 days a week, Monday through Sunday, and is catered to the logistical needs of running classes with 10-20 people or more. Each day includes carefully planned warm-ups that often differ from those in Linchpin’s Individual Track. A highly detailed Lesson Plan is also provided with every daily workout, written by a team of experienced trainers who run classes for a living, and reviewed by a Level 4 CrossFit Coach. As Pat Sherwood explains, “We feel we have found the right balance to give coaches all the guidance they need to run a top notch, professional class while still allowing their own style and personality to shine. Using the daily lesson plan is of course optional, but we think you will enjoy it.”
Key aspects of the Lesson Plans are:
The 5 daily workout options are:
Linchpin does not have a bias toward strength, gymnastics, or conditioning. Instead, they have what they call “a long term health and fitness bias,” with programming designed to keep athletes of all ages feeling happy and healthy. A key linchpin of the Linchpin approach is an emphasis on Intensity over Volume. Intelligent scaling or modification of a workout is often essential on a long fitness journey, and heavy lifting days aren’t over-crammed with other workouts. “We don’t rush it; we focus on doing it right.”
