CROSSFIT LEVEL 1 STUDY SHEET 2026
COMPLETE QUESTIONS GUARANTEED
PREP
⩥ What is functional movement. Answer: load, distance, and speed for
production of high power
⩥ Define intensity. Answer: power
(intensity is the independent variable)
⩥ Crossfit methodology:. Answer: safety, efficacy, and efficiency
(the 3 most important and interdependent facets to evaluate any fitness
program, can be supported only by measurable, observable, repeatable
data)
⩥ 10 fitness domains of Crossfit:. Answer: cardiovascular/respiratory
endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination,
agility, balance, and accuracy
⩥ Define athlete. Answer: a person who is trained or skilled in exercises,
sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina
,⩥ Define Crossfit athlete. Answer: a person who is skilled or trained in
strength, power, balance, and agility, flexibility, and endurance
⩥ How is energy derived?. Answer: aerobically when O2 is utilized to
metabolize substrates derived from food and liberates energy
⩥ Aerobic activity:. Answer: are usually greater than 90 seconds in
duration and involve low to moderate power output or intensity
Ex: running on treadmill for 20 min, swimming a mile, watching TV
⩥ Anaerobic activity:. Answer: energy is liberated from substances in
the absence of O2; these activities are of less than 2 min in duration and
involve moderate to high power output intensity
Ex: 100 m sprint, squatting, pull ups
⩥ Anaerobic systems:. Answer: phosphagen and glycolytic (lactic acid)
⩥ 2 Olympic lifts:. Answer: clean and jerk and snatch
(they train athletes to activate more muscle fibers more rapidly more
than through any other modality of training; develop an athletes
explosive power, control of external objects, and mastery of critical
motor recruitment patterns)
, ⩥ Hormonal responses vital to athletic development:. Answer: increased
in testosterone, insulin-like growth factor, and human growth hormone
⩥ Adaptive responses to exercises capable of producing a significant
neuroendocrine response:. Answer: mass and bone density
⩥ Power. Answer: time rate of doing work; also the definition of
intensity
⩥ What is associated with high neuroendocrine response?. Answer:
heavy load weight lifting, short rest between sets, high heart rates, high
intensity training, short rest intervals
⩥ Cross training vs Crossfit. Answer: cross training is participating in
several sports and Crossfit views cross training as exceeding the normal
parameters of the regular demands of your sport training
⩥ Functional movement:. Answer: are mechanically sound and therefor
safe, and secondly they are the movements that elicit a high
neuroendocrine response
⩥ Crossfit diet:. Answer: protein 30%; carbohydrates 40%; fat 30%
⩥ Protein:. Answer: total calories based on protein needs which should
be between 0.7 and 1.0 grams of protein per pound of lean body mass
