Start at the right progression.
BASE is our structured onboarding program. We assess how you move, build a plan around what we find, and get you ready to train with our group classes with confidence.
A structured program built on progressive overload.
Progressive overload means building toward a goal in small increments, without overstressing the body. Done well, it develops movement skills and strength while lowering the risk of excessive soreness and exercise-related injury.
We run it in 6 to 8 week blocks, long enough for real development to show up.
Why it works for beginners. It allows a high frequency of exposure to movements and skills that are underdeveloped or have never been developed.
Why experienced exercisers succeed with it. It provides a consistent frequency of stress exposure, which is what muscles need to reach the desired adaptation.
Variance exposes you to more patterns and stresses, but it limits the frequency adaptation needs.
Get new members up to speed.
Learn the patterns
Proper movement patterns, and why they matter for function and for your goals, whether that is hypertrophy or skill transfer.
Find your limiters
Know where your limiters are and which progressions will improve them.
Close the gap
Bridge the distance between someone who has never followed a proper exercise program and our longtime members.
Lower the stress
We remove as much environmental and emotional stress as we can, so you can focus on having a great experience from day one.
Scaling that builds progress, not just a lighter workout.
We scale for progress
At many group fitness gyms, new members are dropped into a class with no expectations set, and "scaling" loosely means making the workout easier. BASE is not designed to make the workout easier. It starts you at the progression that allows proper development.
We assess movement, not just skill
Most people new to compound movements are short on flexibility or mobility, which makes proper positions hard to reach. That limits range of motion, limits your ability to leverage heavier loads, and in turn limits strength development. BASE finds those limiters, and you leave knowing how to improve them in class or on your own with accessory work.
You experience the full program
BASE prepares you to experience our program fully, with 1 to 2 integrated class exposures. With the full picture, you can decide whether a long-term membership is a good fit for you, or not.
