Yay for getting started! I hope you love it.

In my Elements onramp course, we learned the basic moves:

Burpees
Pullups with a band or a box
Box jumps
Wall balls
Jumping rope
Air squats
Pushups

We also started on form for the lifts (with a PVC pipe):

Power clean
Back squat
Front squat
Overhead press
Clean and jerk
Deadlift
Snatch

I did a few onramp classes at the beginning of summer. Like the others said, it is an introduction to the common movements used in Crossfit, but it goes easy on the complex lifts -- so you can learn the form.
Despite that, mine tended to be pretty rigorous. We did WODs and they were hard, with lots of jump rope, running, sled pulling, push-ups and burpees, etc.
I thought they were fun.

Expect to be very sore. Learn to love the foam roller (embrace the pain) and mobility work.

Remember that while right now the warmup might seem like it's own killer exercise, it gets easier fast. I knew I was making progress when I finished a warmup and was thinking "cool now I'm ready to do this WOD" instead of sucking wind. Those warmups will go a long way to alleviating the soreness too.

If you're sore and still, go to the gym anyways. It will help.

Focus ENTIRELY on form and technique to start. Get the movements right, scale the weights if necessary, don't worry about intensity. Once you can do things the right way, THEN start upping the intensity. If you have questions about form, ask. I went to all the coaches and told them to never, ever think I'd be made if they stopped me and corrected something I was doing.

Keep an eye on your diet. I lost 20 lbs immediately and then have stabilized for a year because I was not paying proper attention to my diet. You can't out-train bad eating. Don't be crazy about it, just keep an eye on it.

I think someone posted a good meme here that I'll repeat:

It will take about one month/six weeks for you to feel the difference in your strength.

It will take another six weeks for you to notice the differences

It will take another six weeks for other people to notice.

My old box only did a 2 hour on ramp... needless to say i learned terrible form and bad habits, and got hurt often... switched boxes to one that did 4 weeks 3x a week, and now I see the difference between a ok box and a GREAT box. we did 1 hour and a half just on proper deadlifts. I would hope with only 2 hours during actual wods they don't allow you to do things until they are 100% that you know the right way.. best of luck!

I have just started. I only did a 3 hour on ramp this week though and Im into the classes next week!
I am probably not as fit as you but I found the first day seriously tough. I am still aching in my arms...
The second day involved a fair amount of puff too and the 3rd was just technique without a WOD.
There was a lot of emphasis on technique though. A lot to learn!

I did my on ramp with 3 men so I was never going to be on par with them, especially as Im curvy ;-).
The coach in my box decides on the WOD each week so its not part of the regular online one.
Im in the uk too, so its relatively new here.

Lol! I cried a little today. Ive never done a lunge that deep, and so many, and with a bar :-D Dont think I can stand up from the toilet any more
:laugh:

If they do 2 hours it needs to be followed up by good coaching. We were told to focus on form first and always the coaches knew the new faces and would jump in if we started messing up. Hell, I've been there a year and they still don't hestitate to correct, though now I usually know something is off before they tell me.

Might want to grab thin knee pads for lunges. My knees bruise easy and I also have a screw right under my left knee from my old ACL surgery. Much easier to do walking lunges mentally knowing I have a bit of padding.

Wow what a session I had. It was just me, so had his full undivided attention. He is a brilliant coach and is well educated on the subject. I really enjoyed it and was squatting over 30 kg. He was very impressed with how I got to grips with the moves. Form , form, form . Apparently I have a good posture and im quite flexible, which is apparently a good thing to have for lifting.
2 hours turned into nearly 4 hours, so I'm well chuffed. He said that he doesn't expect me to know everything for the WOD and will focus on me for the next 3-4 sessions. I think i'm lucky in that it was just me starting.
I'm already bruising on my left knee but I bruise so easily, really annoying. I'm going to be in immense pain tomorrow, I just know it. Doing the WOD on weds, wish me luck !

Sounds great, congrats!
