Lucas McEmery

After doing the whole ‘body-building’ routine, Lucas got turned on to CrossFit from a friend. The competitive atmosphere immediately drew Lucas in, as it took him back to his days on the wrestling mat growing up. Wrestling and playing multiple sports growing up [football, baseball, track] always had Lucas trying to become better year-in and year-out, but he lost that edge after college wrestling. CrossFit brought that back. A newfound passion for pushing himself coupled with starting his work-career as a coach/trainer and wanting to bring fitness to his clients had Lucas buying into CrossFit full-swing. Qualifying and competing in the 2010 Reebok CrossFit Games Affiliate Cup at the Home Depot Center had Lucas hungry for competition; it just lit that fire. These days, Lucas’ main focus is on knowledge of sport and movement, trying to gain as much coaching experience and a broad array of knowledge as possible. He has 15+ years of CrossFit coaching experience and  years of personal training experience.
