On Ramp is a prerequisite and will prepare you to safely complete a regular class. These classes run 3 times a week for two weeks. The next open on ramp will begin November 5th. There are no more than 4-6 people per session so that we can ensure our athletes get the attention they need and can graduate feeling confident in their ability and knowledge of CrossFit. If you would rather complete the On Ramp individually or if these days and times don’t work for you, then we have a 5 session personal training option as well. These personal training sessions will also prepare you in movements and progressions like the class. If you are not sure which is the best path for you to take in order to reach your fitness goals please call us and make a free appointment for and assessment with one of our certified trainers. Other questions email us at [email protected] or call us at 508 930 8734. Claases fill up quickly, so contact us as soon as possible to reserve your spot today.

Restoration

25-40 minutes of one of the following performed at 60-70% effort – easy,
restorative pace:
* Swim (this is my first choice, and if you have an ocean, even better)
* Row (focus on mechanics, smooth and efficient with a very low stroke per
minute pace)
* AirDyne (keep the pace conversational and relaxed)
* Cycling (get outdoors and enjoy the scenery as you ride)
* Hike (nothing crazy here, find a nice easy slope and go for a walk outdoors)
B. Mobility and Maintenance
* Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility
Drills
from Kelly
Starrett’s Mobility WOD

C. Inflammation Maintenance
* This could be a lot of things, but think in terms of compression, contrast
baths, salt baths, castor oil packs, etc….
D. Nutrition Preparation
* Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to
fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.
E. Mental Restoration
* Different for everyone – could be meditation or could be gathering with
friends; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help
you recharge your batteries.
