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 pow-
er
3. Define intensity power
(intensity is the independent variable)
4. Crossfit methodology: safety, efficacy, and efficiency
(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 sta-
mina
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 sub-
strates 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, con-
trol of external objects, and mastery of critical motor
recruitment patterns)
13. Hormonal responses vital to athlet- increased in testosterone, insulin-like growth factor,
ic development: and human growth hormone
14. Adaptive responses to exercises ca- mass and bone density
pable of producing a significant
neuroendocrine response:
15. Power time rate of doing work; also the definition of intensity
16. What is associated with high neu- heavy load weight lifting, short rest between sets, high
roendocrine response? 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 sec-
ondly they are the movements that elicit a high neu-
roendocrine 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 too rapidly
Ex: rice, bread, candy, potato, sweets, sodas
22. Crossfits 10 general physical skills: cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina,
strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility,
balance, and accuracy
23. Training refers to: activity that improves performance through a measur-
able organic change in the body
24. Practice refers to: activity improves performance through changes in the
nervous system: power and speed and adaptations of
both training and practice
25. Define accuracy the ability to control movement in a given direction or
at a given intensity
26. Define balance the ability to control placement of the bodys center of
gravity in relation to its support base
27. Define agility the ability to minimize transition time from one move-
ment pattern to another
28. Define coordination the ability to combine several distinct movement pat-
terns into a singular distinct movement
29. Define speed
