The most flexible Lincoln gym — Anytime Fitness Lincoln

The key to building a consistent routine at the gym is simply to stick with it in the beginning. Unfortunately, student life will inevitably stand in the way sometimes, and having a flexible gym can make all the difference.

As the name suggests, Anytime Fitness Lincoln is open 24/7.

The best women-only gym – Curves Gym Lincoln

Gyms can be intimidating at the best of times, especially for people who are just starting. Unfortunately, this is one of the leading reasons women don't go to the gym, with 65% avoiding the gym due to the fear of being judged. Thankfully, Curves Gym is changing that. 

Curves Gym Lincoln North is a women-only gym that centres around safety, security, and community — it's a place where women can feel fit, strong, and free of judgment. 

The most fun gym in Lincoln — Everlast Gym Lincoln

We all have different reasons for going to the gym, but just a few key things keep us all coming back — and fun is one of them.

At Everlast Gym, there are so many ways to have fun. With all the incredible facilities at Everlast Gym Lincoln, it's more of a playground than a gym. Cycle rooms, cardio stations, powerlifting stations, steam rooms, boxing bags—you name it, Everlast has it. It's also one of the only gyms in Lincoln with a pool.

The best CrossFit gym in Lincoln — LN CrossFit

For some of us, the gym is a great place to disconnect with the rest of the world and have some dedicated you-time. For others, it's a way to connect with people and be a part of a community working towards collective self-improvement. CrossFit may be a brilliant option if the latter sounds like you.

The intense group fitness regime run by LN CrossFit will keep you motivated and get you fit, strong, and agile.
