Some days you come in to get stronger.

Some days you come in because you need the people around you.

Either way, you leave a little better than you came.

That’s the magic of this place.

Name a fitness movement in 3 seconds or less or get a cup full of water 💧
This was way more challenging than you would think 🤣

🎶 At last…

At last, we found a coffee company that believes what we believe.

At CrossFit Okoboji, our mission has always been bigger than fitness. We believe God has called us to serve people, build community, and help others become stronger—inside and outside the gym.

When we met the team at Uplift Coffee Company, it was clear we weren’t just partnering with another coffee brand. We were connecting with people who live the same mission.

Like us, they’re a husband-and-wife team who understands the early mornings, the hard work, the long days, and the commitment it takes to build something meaningful. Their purpose is simple: create exceptional coffee while pouring into people who work hard, chase big goals, and refuse to settle.

A huge thank you to Uplift Coffee Company for sponsoring our Red, White & Brew event after our 4th of July workout. There was something special about watching our community recover together over a great cup of coffee after putting in the work.

We’re excited for this partnership and can’t wait to keep CrossFit Okoboji stocked with Uplift Coffee because we believe the best partnerships are built on shared values—not just shared products.

Here’s to serving people, building community, and helping each other rise. ☕❤️

CrossFit Semifinals Recap 2026
Karli Plueger | Indy RX

“I just wanna be her…”

As I was putting this video together, I couldn’t help but think about how often I hear people say they want to be like Karli when they watch her train.

As her husband, that always makes me smile.

Not because of the workouts she posts, the scores she puts up, or the success she’s had in CrossFit.

But because I know what happens when nobody is watching.

What started as a way to stay active turned into a business, a passion, and ultimately a lifestyle.

Karli has spent years stacking small wins.

Dialing in her nutrition.
Training 5 days a week for 90 minutes to 2 hours.
Prioritizing mobility.
Choosing active recovery on rest days.
Going to bed on time.
Doing the little things when nobody would know if she skipped them.

And somehow she manages all of that while working full-time as a dental hygienist, helping run CrossFit Okoboji, raising three boys, and always putting her family first.

People see the semifinal athlete.

I see the consistency.

The truth is, being like her isn’t complicated.

Eat clean.
Move well.
Take care of your body.
Pour into other people.
Show up every day.

The hard part is doing it over and over again without fail.

Success isn’t one workout, one competition, or one season.

It’s the aggregation of marginal gains repeated thousands of times.

That’s what makes Karli special.

Not because she’s a semifinal athlete.

Because she’s the same person on the days nobody is watching as she is on competition day.

And that’s why so many people watch her and say,

“I want to be her.”

I’m proud of you, Karli. ❤️💪

Nothing fills our hearts more than seeing full classes at CrossFit Okoboji.

“But do I have to be fit before I start?”

Absolutely not.

From beginners to elite athletes, everyone has a place in our community.

The truth is, most people who say they’ll start once they’re “fit enough” never do. Fitness isn’t a prerequisite—it’s the result.

Choose action. The hardest step is walking through our doors for the first time. After that, our coaches and community will help carry you forward.

This is your sign to start. 💪
