🔦ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT: LYNN🔦

❓When did you join Dawson CrossFit?
💪My profile was created Oct. 14, 2019, but I only came a few times that year. Then I came back in 2023 for a few classes. I finally committed in Oct. 2025 and now go 4-6 times a week.

❓Why did you join Dawson CrossFit?
💪My husband constantly encouraged me to go. Plus, we had been tracking our macros for months, losing weight, and I could see the drastic changes in both his body composition and his performance in the gym.

❓How did you find Dawson CrossFit?
💪I did a Battle for the Mountain competition years ago and my husband is a longtime athlete of Dawson CrossFit.

❓What is your favorite thing about Dawson CrossFit?
💪The coaches and the encouragement you get from everyone

❓What is your favorite move(s) or WOD?
💪Anything but snatches

❓What is your current goal?
💪Toes-to-Bar and Pull-ups

❓What goals have you already accomplished?
💪Wall walks and moving to more difficult movement, weight, and rep options for more workouts

❓What would you tell someone who is thinking about trying Dawson CrossFit?
💪Try it. There are modifications for everything and the coaches and members are very helpful. It’s no different than making yourself walk into a regular gym. You just have to get there, set your mind to it, and commit to getting stronger and healthier.

❓ Any other inspirational stories or thoughts to share?
💪My husband and I hired a nutrition coach and have been tracking our macros since April of 2025. Eating the right foods has definitely been a huge part of me being able to do the workouts and make improvements in the gym. It is a commitment to myself to get healthier, stronger, and hopefully live longer.

Hello Athletes! Can you believe this cycle is already coming to an end? Starting Monday, August 3, you get to see what the past eleven weeks produced.

Retest weeks run August 3 through August 16 and close out Achilles. Same benchmarks, same standards, same movements you hit back in Weeks 1 and 2.

Here is where to find your testing metrics. They are also loaded in RxGym for next week.

5x5 Front Squat, tested June 1
3x10 Strict Press, tested June 2
PRVN Engine, tested June 3
DT, tested June 5
5x5 Sumo Deadlift, tested June 10
1RM Sn**ch and Clean and Jerk, new tests happening in these two weeks

Pull those up before you come in. Seeing where you started is half the fun, and if you cannot track a number down, grab a coach and we will set a goal together.

A few things that will make these two weeks feel great:

Come in for all of it. The days that look a bit more intimidating are the ones you will be proudest of.

Sleep and eat like it matters, because it does. Seven to nine hours and a real meal two to three hours before class will do more for your numbers than anything else. Carbs are your friend!

Give yourself a few extra minutes. Getting here ten to fifteen minutes early means more time to activate.

Retest at the level you tested. Rx, Rx2, or Rx3, staying consistent is what makes the comparison real. Jump a level only if that is the goal you set for your retest.

Tell your coach what is going on. Sore shoulder, rough week, new to a movement, all of it helps us adjust with you.

Newer to us and missed the first round of testing? Come anyway. These two weeks become your baseline for the next cycle.

We are excited to see these numbers. Come in, have fun with it, let us celebrate the work with you, and leave no doubt.
