1. Definition of Crossfit: constantly varied, high intensity, functional
movement (also known as Crossfits prescription)
2. What is functional movement: load, distance, and speed for production of high power
3. Define intensity: power
(intensity is the independent variable)
4. Crossfit methodology:: safety, eflcacy, and eflciency
(the 3 most important and interdependent facets to evaluate any fitness program, can be supported only
by measurable, observable, repeatable data)
5. 10 fitness domains of Crossfit:: cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength,
flexibility,
power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy
6. Define athlete: a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical
,strength, agility, or stamina
7. Define Crossfit athlete: a person who is skilled or trained in strength, power, balance,
and agility, flexibility, and endurance
8. How is energy derived?: aerobically when O2 is utilized to metabolize substrates derived
from food and liberates energy
9. Aerobic activity:: 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
10. Anaerobic activity:: 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
11. Anaerobic systems:: phosphagen and glycolytic (lactic acid)
12. 2 Olympic lifts:: 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)
, 13. Hormonal responses vital to athletic development:: increased in
testosterone, in-sulin-like growth factor, and human growth hormone
14. Adaptive responses to exercises capable of producing a
significant neu-roendocrine response:: mass and bone density
15. Power: time rate of doing work; also the definition of intensity
16. What is associated with high neuroendocrine response?: heavy load
weight lifting, short rest between sets, high heart rates, high intensity training, short rest intervals
17. Cross training vs Crossfit: 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
18. Functional movement:: are mechanically sound and therefor safe, and secondly
they are the move-ments that elicit a high neuroendocrine response
19. Crossfit diet:: protein 30%; carbohydrates 40%; fat 30%
20. Protein:: total calories based on protein needs which should be between 0.7 and 1.0
grams of protein per
pound of lean body mass
21. High glycemic carbohydrates:: raise blood sugar
