CrossFit Level 1 Exam With Complete Solutions 2024

Define CrossFit - correct answer-CrossFit is constantly varied functional movements performed at high intensity Characteristics of function movements: - correct answer-Natural, Universal Motor recruitment pattern, essential, safe, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity, high power producing Define most important characteristics - correct answer-Capacity to move large loads over long distance (high power producing) Define and calculate work - correct answer-capacity is the ability to perform real physical work as measured by force x distance / time (which is average power). Fitness is this ability in as many domains as possible Define and calculate power - correct answer-Work capacity is the ability to perform real physical work as measured by force x distance / time (which is average power). Fitness is this ability in as many domains as possible. Science is about measurement and prediction Understand relative changes in force, distance and time change power output - correct answer- Articulate the characteristics of function movements; Natural: - correct answer-involves the movement of multiple joints for every activity Articulate the characteristics of function movements; Universal Motor Recruitment Patterns: - correct answer-To use all of your muscles to move in symphony efficiently, effectively, and quickly from one place to another Articulate the characteristics of function movements; Essential: - correct answer-Quality of life, if we don't use them we lose them Articulate the characteristics of function movements; Safe - correct answer-functional movements done correctly. All movements must be safe when utilizing proper form. Articulate the characteristics of function movements; Compound yet Irreducible: - correct answer-Multi-joint movements. You can't break the movement down to smaller exercises or functional movements. Articulate the characteristics of function movements; Core to extremity: - correct answer-The movement starts from your core and works its way out. Articulate the characteristics of function movements; High-Power Producing: - correct answer-load, distance, speed-uniquely qualify functional movements for the production of high power.; Identify the most important characteristic: - correct answer-Power (force X distance/time) Define and calculate work: - correct answer-ability to perform real physical work. Force X Distance Define and calculate Power: - correct answer-time rate of doing work. Force X distance/time Understand how relative changes in force, distance, and time change power output. - 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 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 favorable adaption to exercise. Articulate the relationship between intensity and results: - correct answer-Intensity brings results Define variance: - correct answer-Prep for random physical challenges, unknown and unknowable. Define general physical preparedness: - correct answer-is broad , general, and inclusive Explain the concept of 'failing at the margins of your experience' and how it relates to variance in CrossFit: - correct answer-Constant variance prepares you at your margins of experience to prevent failure at margins of experience. Articulate the difference between specialization and CrossFit: - correct answer-Specializations focusing on special skills and CF is variance. Specialty is no specialization Articulate CrossFit's definition of fitness and health, and their relationship - correct answer-Increased work capacity over broad time and model domains as defined by: -10 general physical skills -The Hopper -Metabolic Pathways
