Answers
Nine foundational movements relative - CORRECT ANSWER - Air squat/front squat/
overhead squat/ shoulder press/push jerk/deadlift/sumo deadlift high pull/ medicine ball clean
Relative intensity - CORRECT ANSWER - A persons physical and physiological
tolerance
Mechanics/consistency/intensity - CORRECT ANSWER - Effective implementation of
Crossfit programming
Safety/efficacy/efficiency - CORRECT ANSWER - 3 meaningful components to a fitness
program
Strength - CORRECT ANSWER - Productive application of force
The leg - CORRECT ANSWER - Femur and tibia
The trunk - CORRECT ANSWER - Pelvis and spine
Flexion - CORRECT ANSWER - Reducing the angle of a joint
Extension - CORRECT ANSWER - Increasing the angle of a joknt
Muted hip function - CORRECT ANSWER - When the pelvis chases the femur
, Functional movements - CORRECT ANSWER - Universal motor recruitment patterns
performed in a wave of contraction from core to extremity and the ability to move large loads
over long distances and to do so quickly.
10 fitness domains - CORRECT ANSWER - Cardiovascular/respiratory
endurance/stamina/ strength/flexibility/power/ speed/coordination/agility/balance/accuracy
Crossfit definition of of an athlete - CORRECT ANSWER - A person wh is trained or
skilled I strength power balance agility flexibility and endurance
Measures of health - CORRECT ANSWER - Fitness/wellness/pathology
Fringe athlete - CORRECT ANSWER - Being to specialized sit hat they are inconsistent
