Crossfit Level 1 Trainer Test Exam Questions with
Correct Answers
1. Define CrossFit correct answer: constantly varied functional movement executed at high
intensity.
2. Characteristics of Functional Movements correct answer: correct
answer: 1. Natural
2. UMRP correct answer: Universal motor recruitment pattern. (found everywhere)
3. Essential correct answer: for quality of life, living independently, to do everyday things.
4. Safe
5. Compound yet irreducible (mutiple joints)
6. Core to extremity.
3. Define and Calculate Work correct answer: correct answer: The ability to perform real
physical work as measured by; force x distance
4. Define and Calculate Power correct answer: correct answer: The time rate of doing
work; intensity; force x distance./time
Functional
Movements; large
loads-- force
long distances-- distance(or
reps) quickly--time
5. Intensity correct answer: Power; is the independent variable most commonly associated with
maximizing the rate or return . The greater/higher the intensity the better the results.
6. Most important characteristic of functional movements correct answer:
Their capacity to move large loads over a long distances, quickly.
7. Crossfit Methodology correct answer: Safety, eflcacy and eflciency most important
facets to elevate fitness can be supported by measurable, observable and repeatable data.
"Evidence based"
8. Constantly Varied correct answer: correct answer: Exsposure to a
program that is broad general and inclusive. Factors to vary correct
answer:
,1. loads
2. distance
3. time
4 equipment.
Being prepared for the unknown and unknowable.
9. What is GPP and it's definition correct answer: correct answer: General Physical
Preparedness correct answer: Being prepared to run and weightlift better than someone who
only runs or only weightlift.
Ex correct answer: broad, general and inclusive and variance creates this general condition which prepares
you for the unknown.
10. Failing at the margins of your experience relating to variance
in CF correct answer: Constant variance prepares you at your margins of experience to
prevent failure at margins of experience
, 11. Specialization vs CrossFit correct answer: Specialization in one sport and being great
in one activity only vs Crossfit that will make you good in all activities.
12. Crossfit definition of fitness and health and their relationship
correct answer: Fitness is work capacity across broad time and modal domains. and
health is work capacity across broad time and modal.domains throughout your life.
13. What are Crossfits Four -4- Models for evaluating and guiding
fitness correct answer: correct answer: 1. The 10 General Physical Skills
2. The Hopper
3. The Metabolic Pathways
4. Sickness and Wellness Continuum
And to be considered fit is to be good at all 4 modals of fitness.
14. Define The 10 Physical Skills correct answer: You are as fit as you are competent
in each of these 10 Skills correct answer:
1. Cardiovascular/Respiratory Endurance (gather, process and deliver oxygen)
2. Stamina (process, deliver, store and utilize energy)
3. Strength (muscular unit, apply force)
4. Flexibility (maximize ROM of a joint)
5. Power(applying maximum force in minimum time)
6. Speed (minimize time cycle of a repeated movement)
7. Coordination (combine several patterns into a singular movement)
8. Agility (minimizing transition time)
9. Balance (control the body center of gravity)
10. Accuracy ( controlling movement in any direction at anytime)
15. The Hopper correct answer: Is loaded with as many skills and drills from many ditterent
sports. and the implication is that fitness requires an ability to perform well at all drills, even unfamiliar
tasks combined in infinitely combinations.
16. Metabolic Pathways correct answer: 3 Metabolic ways to provide energy to the
body
1. Phosphagen (quick)-- Anerobic(atp wothou oxygen)
2. Glycolytic (quick but not fast)-- Anerobix
3. Oxidative (long time)--aerobic(arp with oxygen)
, 17. Sickness and Wellness correct answer: The sick, well, and fit continuum can be
plotted. There is a sick side, well is in the middle, and the right side is fit. if all your numbers are on
the right if you if you do get sick you have a better chance of getting well sooner.
