CrossFit L1 TEST STUDY Exam Questions with
Correct Answers
1. What is crossfit correct answer: Constantly varied functional movements executed at high
intensity.
2. The aims, prescription, methodology, implementation, and
adaptations of CrossFit correct answer: to forge a broad general and inclusive fitness
Prepare for the unknown and unknowable.
3. Characteristics of functional movements correct answer: natural, universal motor
recruitment patterns, essen- tial, safe, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity, power.
4. Most Important characteristic of Functional Movements correct answer:
their capacity to move large loads over long distances, and to do so quickly.
5. Define and calculate work correct answer: ability to perform real physical work
Force X Distance = Work
6. Define and calculate power correct answer: Intensity is defined exactly as power,
and intensity is the independent variable most commonly associated with maximizing the rate of
return of favorable adaptation to exercise. Force X Distance / Time = Power
7. Understand how relative changes in force, distance, and time
change power
output correct answer: correct answer: 100
pounds moved 20ft in 1 min= 2000ib ft/min 100
pounds moved 20ft in 10 min= 200ib ft/min
10pounds moved 20ft in 1 min=200ib ft/min
8. Describe intensity and how it is related to power correct answer:
power=intensity Intensity is power intensity is the independent variable commonly
associated with max favourable adaption to exercise.
9. Articulate the relationship between intensity and results correct
answer: Intensity is the independent variable most commonly associated with maximizing the
rate of return of favorable adaptation to exercise. Intensity and and functional movements are more
ettective at creating results.
10. Define variance correct answer: Variance means unknown and unknowable events. The
model we otter allows for wide
,variance of mode, exercise, metabolic pathway, rest, intensity, sets, and reps.
11. Define General Physical Preparedness correct answer: GPP, the
generalized base qualities of an athlete. the aim is to establish a broad foundational fitness
level that can then be converted and applied throughout a wide range of tasks hoping to consistently
make gains in the 10 General Physical Skills of Fitness which prepares you for any physical challenge
12. Explain failing at the margins of your experience and how it
relates to
variance correct answer: Constant variance prepares you at your margins of experience to prevent
failure at margins of experience
13. Articulate the difference between specialization and CrossFit
correct answer: Specialization is focusing on 1 set of skills, CF is varied skills.
, 14. Articulate CrossFit's definition of fitness and health, and their
relationship correct answer: -
Fitness- Work Capacity across broad time and modal
domains. Health- Fitness definition through out life.
15. Identify the 4 supporting models of CrossFit correct answer: -10
general physical skills
-The Hopper
-Metabolic pathways Sickness-Wellness-Fitness
-Fitness Continuum
16. 10 general physical skills correct answer: (Organic)
1. cardiovascular/respiratory endurance
2. stamina
3. strength
4. flexibili
ty (Both)
5. power
6. speed
(Neurologica
l)
7. coordination
8. agility
9. balance
10. accuracy
17. Identify how each model could be used to assess fitness and
to determine the fittest individual correct answer: - 10 general physical skills correct
answer: Demonstrates the Facets of Fitness and degrees of adaptions needed for fitness (Work
Capacity)
-The Hopper correct answer: Demonstrates the skills and drills the "Fittest" can do.
-The Metabolic Pathways correct answer: Demonstrates the Ditterent Bio-mechanical adaptions of work
capacity.
-Sickness-Wellness-Fitness Continuum correct answer: Demonstrates the traits of the "Fittest" individual.
18. define cardio-vascular/respiratory endurance correct answer: The
ability of body systems to gather, process, and deliver oxygen.
