CrossFit Long Beach On-Ramp Course
On-Ramp Course Gets You Up To Speed.
If you're new to CrossFit, or haven't CrossFitted in a certified school or in a while, then On-Ramp is the way to start. This four-week course equips you with the core knowledge and confidence to join the group classes - and kick butt in them.
Required for all new members before joining group classes - regardless of what kind of shape you're in - On-Ramp includes 12 sessions, each one hour long, led by our private coaches. With 12 students max in each class, these sessions introduce you to the basics of CrossFit technique and movements - safely and at a pace that matches your individual fitness level.
Our curriculum is based on NorCal Strength and Conditioning’s On Ramp program. They are the 4th CrossFit affiliate and run a hugely successful training facility. We are grateful to Nicki Violetti for sharing this with the greater CrossFit community. Nicki is a co-founder, along with Robb Wolf, NorCal Strength and Conditioning. This program has been well-tested and the success rate of our On-Ramp graduates is remarkable.

Here's what you can expect from your On-Ramp Course.
Learn The Moves.
We'll start off by showing you CrossFit mechanics and movements you'll be using in group classes. So you can burpee with the best of them.
Technicalities.
Have no clue what a deadlift is? Never held a kettlebell before? Can't tell the difference between a thruster and a clean-and-jerk? That's what On-Ramp is for. We'll make sure you're fluent in CrossFit terminology, equipment, proper form and technique. So you can push yourself, while staying safe.
Things Start To Get Intense.
If you haven't worked out in a while, we'll build up the intensity steadily. Remember, we've got 12 sessions to get you there. You can do this. Each session ends with a progressively more challenging workout. It won't happen overnight. But it will happen.
It Ain't Called A Workout For Nothing.
Trust us, you will get a grueling workout in every On-Ramp class - even for those uber-athletes among us. Because while everyone in the class completes the same WOD (Workout of the Day), your coaches scale the workout to match your fitness level.
You Set The Pace.
How hard you work, and how much you suffer, is ultimately up to you. We'll push you as much as we can, but you decide the level of intensity you're willing to reach.
Put Down The Double Bacon Western Cheeseburger.
Like the workouts, we'll gradually challenge and change your eating habits to healthier ones. What you eat has a lot to do with how well you succeed.
