CROSSFIT LEVEL 1 CERTIFICATION
EXAM QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED
ANSWERS
1. What is the CrossFit definition of fitness?
A. Cardiovascular endurance and stamina
B. Increased work capacity across broad time and modal domains
C. The ability to perform daily tasks without fatigue
D. Maximal force production in a single effort
Answer: B
Conceptual Explanation: CrossFit defines fitness precisely as increased work capacity
across broad time and modal domains.
2. Which of the following best describes ‘functional movements’?
A. Movements that can only be performed by professional athletes
B. Isolated movements utilizing machines
C. High-velocity, multi-joint, and core-to-extremity movements
D. Slow-speed movements designed for rehabilitation
,Answer: C
Conceptual Explanation: Functional movements are natural, universal, multi-joint, and
recruit power from core to extremity efficiently.
3. What are the three primary energy systems that fuel human physical activity?
A. Aerobic, Anaerobic, and Oxidative
B. Phosphagen, Glycolytic, and Oxidative
C. Lactic, Alactic, and Aerobic
D. ATP-CP, Lactic Acid, and Mitochondrial
Answer: B
Conceptual Explanation: The three energy systems are the Phosphagen (ATP-CP),
Glycolytic (lactate), and Oxidative (aerobic) systems.
4. Which model of fitness evaluates performance across all 10 general physical skills?
A. The Hopper Model
B. The Metabolic Pathways Model
C. The 10 General Physical Skills Model
D. The Sickness-Wellness-Fitness Continuum
Answer: C
, Conceptual Explanation: The 10 General Physical Skills model measures fitness based on
improvements in cardiovascular endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed,
coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy.
5. What does the Hopper model test?
A. Cardiovascular output exclusively on a rower
B. An athlete’s ability to perform well in diverse and randomized physical tasks
C. Maximal lifting capacity in Olympic weightlifting
D. The metabolic cost of sustained running
Answer: B
Conceptual Explanation: The Hopper model posits that fitness is the ability to perform
well across a broad range of random physical tasks.
6. What is power defined as in physics and CrossFit?
A. Work divided by time
B. Mass multiplied by acceleration
C. Force multiplied by distance
D. Energy expended per minute
Answer: A
Conceptual Explanation: Power is the time rate of doing work, calculated as Work / Time
(Force x Distance / Time).
