Ramp Up Classes in Mesa, AZ
If you've never done CrossFit before, our Ramp Up Program is the perfect place to start.
Designed specifically for beginners, Ramp Up consists of three private or small-group coaching sessions where you'll learn the foundational movements, terminology, and techniques used in CrossFit classes. Our goal is to help you feel comfortable, confident, and prepared before stepping into your first group workout.
Whether you're brand new to fitness, returning after time away, or simply want to learn proper technique before joining classes, Ramp Up gives you the individual attention you deserve.
At CrossFit Incite, we believe great movement comes before heavy weights.
Our coaching philosophy is simple:
Before adding weight or increasing speed, we focus on teaching you how to move safely and efficiently. This approach helps reduce your risk of injury while building a strong foundation that will support your progress for years to come.
During your Ramp Up sessions, you'll learn many of the movements you'll see in regular CrossFit classes, including:
More importantly, you'll learn why each movement matters and how to perform it correctly.
By the time you complete the program, you won't be expected to master every lift—but you'll understand the fundamentals, know what to expect in class, and feel much more comfortable walking into your first workout.
Our Ramp Up Program includes:
Because everyone's schedule is different, there are no fixed class times. We'll work with you to schedule each session at a time that's convenient for you.
By the end of Ramp Up, you'll:
✔ Feel confident walking into your first CrossFit class
✔ Understand proper movement mechanics
✔ Learn CrossFit terminology and class structure
✔ Know how to modify workouts for your fitness level
✔ Build relationships with our coaches
✔ Reduce your risk of injury through proper technique
✔ Start your fitness journey with confidence

Our experienced coaches understand that starting something new can feel intimidating. That's why every workout can be modified, every athlete is coached individually, and every member is encouraged to progress at their own pace.
You don't need to get in shape before joining.
You join so you can get in shape.
Whether your goal is to lose weight, build strength, have more energy, improve your health, or simply feel better every day, we'll help you get there.
Once you've completed your Ramp Up sessions, you'll be ready to transition into our regular CrossFit classes.

Your coaches will continue to guide you every step of the way, helping you become stronger, healthier, and more confident with each workout.
