Define work capacity and how it is illustrated by the power curve
- ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > your capacity to perform well at these tasks
in relation to other individuals. Work capacity is illustrated by the
power curve as the duration of effort on the X-axis
By tracking the difference in time between workout attempts, we
are looking at changes in power. We did not have to study this
much longer to come to this understanding that your collection
of workout data points represented your work capacity across
broad time and modal domains. This is your fitness.
Explain how CrossFit's definitions of fitness & health differ from
conventional definitions - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > I could make a list of
hundreds of these metrics, and no one has ever produced a great
athlete by advancing them one at a time. It does not happen. I can
move them best by doing constantly varied, high-intensity
functional movements; doing things that look like Fran, Diane,
Helen; turning fitness into sport by working with fixed workloads
and trying to minimize the time by making every workout a

competitive effort among the cohort. And when I do that, what we
find is that these metrics do spectacular things.
I want you to understand how these definitions of fitness and
health are different than those found in exercise-science
literature.
1. understand that our definitions of these quantities are
measurable.
2. its almost never about exercise
3. It is imperative for making meaningful assertions about
training that fitness and health are measurable.
Explain the concepts of measurable, observable, & repeatable -
✔✔✔ Correct Answer > you can measure it, you can observe it, & you
can repeat it
Define CrossFit - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > A core strengthing program
made up of constantly varied high intensity functional
movements
Articulate Characteristics of functional movements: Natural - ✔✔✔
Correct Answer > They are natural, effective, & efficient locomotor of
body & external objects; most important they move large loads
over long distances quickly;
,3|Page
Articulate Characteristics of functional movements: Universal
Motor Recruitment Patterns - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > universal motor
recruitment patterns:
movements that mimic motor recruitment patterns found in
everyday life
Articulate Characteristics of functional movements: Essential -
✔✔✔ Correct Answer > universal motor recruitment patterns:
essential because the soundness & efficacy of functional
movements are so profound that exercising without them is by
comparison a colossal waste of time
Safe - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > Functional movements are safe because
they are mechanically sound
Compound yet Irreducible - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > Compound/multi-
joint movements are functional
High-Power Producing - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > Power is the definition
of intensity; increases in strength, performance, muscle mass, &
bone density all arise in proportion to the intensity of exercise;
Power development is an ever-present aspect of Crossfit
workout

Identify the most important characteristic of functional
movements - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > most important characteristic of
functional movements is that they move large loads over long
distances quickly
Define & calculate work - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > ability to perform
real physical work
ForceXDistance/time = power
Define & calculate power - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > ability of a muscular
unit to apply max force in minimum time; time rate of doing work;
force x distance =time; time rate of doing work;
Understand how relative changes in force, distance & timing
change power output - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer >
Describe intensity & how it is related to power - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer
> Power is the definition of intensity; increases in strength,
performance, muscle mass, & bone density all arise in proportion
to the intensity of exercise; Power development is an ever-
present aspect of Crossfit workout
