Good luck to Steph P and Christine G competing in the NYC Triathlon today!

Are you a relative beginner to CrossFit?  Are you unclear on how to properly warm-up your lifts or what to do about movement issues like when your knees cave in?  Check out our new "On Ramp" classes starting on 7/27/10

___________________
Today is the last day of the CrossFit Games. What is your opinion on the WODs so far? Do you think they are a balanced test of work capacity across broad time and modal domains?
Watch the games live here!

Are you a new athlete?  Do you have trouble keeping your knees out in a squat or your back set in a deadlift?  Are you fresh out of Foundations and not quite sure if you’re ready for the demands of group classes? If so, our new On-Ramp class may be perfect for you.

The sole purpose of the On-Ramp program is to develop consistent technique and increased capacity so that new athletes can proceed into group classes with solid movement and training habits.  By focusing on truly mastering the fundamentals, developing proper movement strategies, and increasing strength and mobility, we’ll provide you with the fitness base to move seamlessly and successfully into Group Classes. 

The key difference is that the On-Ramp classes purposefully take more time to review exercises, detail good training habits and limit intensity.  Most workouts will be done not for time in the interest of making you move better before you move faster.

The class meets 2x/week and is recommended as a 8-12 week cycle for potential participants. Attendance is open to all members and payment works exactly like your regular Group Class membership.  You may also mix On Ramp and Group Classes if your schedule doesnt afford you the time to come to both classes.

On Ramp Classes meet every Tuesday and Thursday at 8pm.  If you’ve got
any questions about this class, please email

Happy Birthday, Alek G, Debbie P and CrossFit Virtuosity!

We've made one change to the programming for the upcoming cycle.  Instead of Overhead Squats we're going to do Back Squats.  The rational being that we'd like to drop the additional overhead component so that we can go overhead in conditioning workouts more often.
