CROSSFIT LEVEL 2 CERTIFICATION EXAM ACTUAL EXAM
200 QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS
(100% VERIFIED ANSWERS) |AGRADE
What is Crossfit? - ANSWER: constantly varied, high-intensity, functional movement
What is power? - ANSWER: the time rate of doing work
What is the most important characteristic of functional movement? - ANSWER:
Capacity to move large loads over long distance (high power producing)
What are the characteristics of functional movement? - ANSWER: natural, universal
motor recruitment patterns, essential, safe, compound yet irreducible, core to
extremity, high power producing.
Describe intensity - ANSWER: Intensity is defined exactly as power. High intensity
allows for shorter, high cardio sessions.
What is the relationship between intensity and results? - 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 effective at creating results.
What is variance? - ANSWER: Variance means unknown and unknowable events. The
model we offer allows for wide variance of mode, exercise, metabolic pathway, rest,
intensity, sets, and reps.
What are the four supporting models of Crossfit's definition of fitness. - ANSWER:
The 10 general physical skills; The Hopper; The Metabolic Pathways; Sickness-
Wellness-Fitness Continuum.
What are the 10 general physical skills? Why is this model important in defining
fitness. - ANSWER: stamina, balance, coordination, flexibility, strength, speed,
power, agility, cardiovascular respiratory endurance, and accuracy. You are as fit as
you are competent in each of these skills.
What is The Hopper Model? Why is this model important in defining fitness? -
ANSWER: Random tasks to accomplish; The implication here is that fitness requires
an ability to perform well at all tasks, even unfamiliar tasks, tasks combined in
infinitely varying combinations.
What are the Metabolic Pathways? Why is this model important in defining fitness? -
ANSWER: They provide energy; They are Phosphocreatine, Glycolytic, and Oxidative.
A fit person should be competent in all pathways.
, Describe the Phosphocreatine Pathway. - ANSWER: Anaerobic (absence of oxygen);
10 second intervals; 100 meter dash.
Describe the Glycolytic Pathway. - ANSWER: Anaerobic (absence of oxygen); 120
second intervals; 400 meter sprint.
Describe the Oxidative Pathway. - ANSWER: Aerobic (uses oxygen); more than 120
seconds; mile run.
What is the sickness-wellness-fitness continuum? Why is this model important in
defining fitness? - ANSWER: Every measurable value of health will fall somewhere on
this continuum. Fitness (crossfit) provides protection against the ravages of time and
disease.
What's the difference between training and practice? - ANSWER: Training refers to
improving the 10 general physical skills (I think) whereas practice refers to sport
specific skills.
How does the sickness-wellness-fitness continuum relate to health? - ANSWER:
sickness, wellness, and fitness are different measures of a single quality: health.
Define the power curve. - ANSWER: The area under which is your work capacity
across broad time and modal domains (your "fitness").
What is work capacity? How is work capacity illustrated in the power curve? -
ANSWER: One's fitness at a certain time in one's life. (I think) I think it's illustrated by
time, age, and power.
What is technique? - ANSWER: Proper technique is the mechanism by which
potential human energy and strength are translated into real work capacity.
What are the three macronutrients in our diet? Give an example of each. - ANSWER:
Protein - meat
Carbohydrates - broccoli
Fat - Butter
What's crossfit's definition of health? - ANSWER: health is defined as work capacity
across broad time and modal domains throughout life. sustained fitness.
Describe the roles of hormones, like insulin and glucagon, for blood sugar control -
ANSWER: Insulin regulates the sugar in our blood.
Articulate the effects a highly refined and processed carbohydrate diet can have on
health - ANSWER: It can lead to increased insulin levels.
Define hyperinsulinemia - ANSWER: Hyperinsulinemia is the chronic and acute
elevation of insulin as a result of habitual consumption of excess carbohydrate.
