Tyler Christophel

Coach

Tyler Christophel is a three-time CrossFit Games athlete and performance coach. He has been committed to training and coaching for the last 19 years, with the past eight years in the CrossFit space. He has competed on teams and individually among the fittest athletes in the world and has learned from some of the sport’s greatest.

As a coach’s son, he grew up around athletics and has spent as long as he can remember around training and competition. After four years of collegiate baseball and an undergraduate degree in sports business, he accepted an opportunity to work with a premier baseball and athletic training facility called Two-K Sports Training. There, he took on a role in personal training, creating training structures and organizing group training sessions with baseball players of all ages. Training in the facility is where Christophel got his start in CrossFit, and after a local CrossFit competition, he realized he had a potential in the sport that he couldn’t leave untapped.

In 2019, he took over the gym manager role for Lift Gym in southwest Missouri and simultaneously qualified for his first individual CrossFit games.

He resides in Cookeville, TN, with his wife Baylee and dog Jax. He has committed to finding the edges of the performance threshold through training and nutrition and is looking forward to serving the community that has offered him this opportunity.

 

What makes you passionate about coaching?

My passion for coaching comes from a long history and love for competition. I love seeing the inner athlete and competitor come out of people.

 

What aspect is your favorite part?

My favorite part is sharing my knowledge, experience, and concepts with other coaches or athletes.

 

When an athlete communicates how much you helped them, how does that make you feel?

It makes me feel like I’m doing my job. But, I feel most successful when the process becomes seamless for athletes.

 

Thoughts around seeing potential in an athlete and how to unlock that potential. How is that exciting for you?

It’s exciting for me to realize and speak life into someone’s potential before they even know it, and it’s always special to see athletes progress toward their own goals.
