The aims, prescription, methodology, implementation, and adaptations of CrossFit - ANSWER -to forge a broad general and inclusive fitness Prepare for the unknown and unknowable. Characteristics of functional movements - ANSWER -natural, universal motor recruitment patterns, essential, safe, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity, power. Most Important characteristic of Functional Movements - ANSWER -their capacity to move large loads over long distances, and to do so quickly. Define and calculate work - ANSWER -ability to perform real physical work Force X Distance = Work Define and calculate power - ANSWER -Intensity is defined exactly as power, and intensity is the independent variable most commonly associated with maximizing the rate of return of favorable adaptation to exercise. Force X Distance / Time = Power Understand how relative changes in force, distance, and time change power output: - ANSWER -100 pounds moved 20ft in 1 min= 2000ib ft/min 100 pounds moved 20ft in 10 min= 200ib ft/min 10pounds moved 20ft in 1 min=200ib ft/min Describe intensity and how it is related to power - ANSWER -power=intensity Intensity is power intensity is the independent variable commonly associated with max favourable adaption to exercise. Articulate the relationship between intensity and results - ANSWER -Intensity is the independent variable most commonly associated with maximizing the rate of return of favorable adaptation to exercise. Intensity and and functional movements are more effective at creating results. Define variance - ANSWER -Variance means unknown and unknowable events. The model we offer allows for wide variance of mode, exercise, metabolic pathway, rest, intensity, sets, and reps. Define General Physical Preparedness - ANSWER -GPP, the generalized base qualities of an athlete. the aim is to establish a broad foundational fitness level that can then be converted and applied throughout a wide range of tasks hoping to consistently make gains in the 10 General Physical Skills of Fitness which prepares you for any physical challenge
