Funded by the ALMH Foundation and in partnership with the City of Lincoln, the Fitness Court ® which launched in August of last year, is an outdoor bodyweight circuit training facility designed to transform public spaces into community fitness hubs. This system also includes a free Fitness Court App that residents can use to track their training progress, learn new routines, or compete in fitness challenges.

ALMH and the City of Lincoln will continue to partner with local trainers and fitness court ambassadors to connect the local community with free activities and experiences that encourage a healthy lifestyle.
