What types of movements does Crossfit work with? with compound movements and shorter
high intensity cardiovascular sessions
CrossFit is a core strength and conditioning program in what two distinct senses the fitness
we develop is foundational to all other athletic needs and our work focuses on the major
functional axis of the human body, the extension and flexion, of the hips and extension, flexion,
and rotation of the torso or trunk. T
Definition of an athlete a person who is trained or skilled in strength, power, balance and
agility, flexibility, and endurance
CrossFit modelholds what as strongly overlapping constructs. "fitness", "health", and
"athleticism"
What are measures of health fitness, wellness, and pathology (sickness)
improvements in which of the ten recognized general physical skills come about through
training. endurance, stamina, strength, and flexibility
Training definition activity that improves performance through a measurable organic change
in the body
,improvements in which of the ten recognized general physical skills come about through
practice? coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy
Practice activity that improves performance through changes in the nervous system
improvements in which of the ten recognized general physical skills come about through practice
and training? Power and speed
What are the three metabolic pathways that provide the energy for all human action
phosphagen pathway, the glycolytic pathway, and the oxidative pathway. Crossfit works to
balance these
glycolytic pathway moderate-powered activities, those that last 30-120 seconds (mid-distance
anaerobic) Duration of recovery: 60-240s, Load:Recovery Ratio 1:2, Repetitions 10-20
phosphagen pathway the highest-powered activities, those that last less than about ten
seconds (sprint anaerobic). Duration of recovery: 30-90s, Load:Recovery Ratio 1:3, Repetitions
3-5
oxidative pathway low-powered activities, those that last in excess of several minutes, 120-
300 seconds (distance aerobic) Duration of recovery: 120-300s, Load:Recovery Ratio 1:1,
Repetitions 25-30.
