100% ACCURATE!!
What is Crossfit? - ANS>> constantly varied, high-intensity, functional movement



What is power? - ANS>> the time rate of doing work



What is the most important characteristic of functional movement? - ANS>> Capacity to move large
loads over long distance (high power producing)



What are the characteristics of functional movement? - ANS>> natural, universal motor recruitment
patterns, essential, safe, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity, high power producing.



Describe intensity - ANS>> Intensity is defined exactly as power. High intensity allows for shorter,
high cardio sessions.



What is the relationship between intensity and results? - ANS>> 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.



What is variance? - ANS>> Variance means unknown and unknowable events. The model we offer
allows for wide variance of mode, exercise, metabolic pathway, rest, intensity, sets, and reps.



What are the four supporting models of Crossfit's definition of fitness. - ANS>> The 10 general
physical skills; The Hopper; The Metabolic Pathways; Sickness-Wellness-Fitness Continuum.



What are the 10 general physical skills? Why is this model important in defining fitness. - ANS>>
stamina, balance, coordination, flexibility, strength, speed, power, agility, cardiovascular respiratory
endurance, and accuracy. You are as fit as you are competent in each of these skills.

,What is The Hopper Model? Why is this model important in defining fitness? - ANS>> Random tasks
to accomplish; The implication here is that fitness requires an ability to perform well at all tasks, even
unfamiliar tasks, tasks combined in infinitely varying combinations.



What are the Metabolic Pathways? Why is this model important in defining fitness? - ANS>> They
provide energy; They are Phosphocreatine, Glycolytic, and Oxidative. A fit person should be competent
in all pathways.



Describe the Phosphocreatine Pathway. - ANS>> Anaerobic (absence of oxygen); 10 second intervals;
100 meter dash.



Describe the Glycolytic Pathway. - ANS>> Anaerobic (absence of oxygen); 120 second intervals; 400
meter sprint.



Describe the Oxidative Pathway. - ANS>> Aerobic (uses oxygen); more than 120 seconds; mile run.



What is the sickness-wellness-fitness continuum? Why is this model important in defining fitness? -
ANS>> Every measurable value of health will fall somewhere on this continuum. Fitness (crossfit)
provides protection against the ravages of time and disease.



What's the difference between training and practice? - ANS>> Training refers to improving the 10
general physical skills (I think) whereas practice refers to sport specific skills.



How does the sickness-wellness-fitness continuum relate to health? - ANS>> sickness, wellness, and
fitness are different measures of a single quality: health.



Define the power curve. - ANS>> The area under which is your work capacity across broad time and
modal domains (your "fitness").



What is work capacity? How is work capacity illustrated in the power curve? - ANS>> One's fitness at
a certain time in one's life. (I think) I think it's illustrated by time, age, and power.

, What is technique? - ANS>> Proper technique is the mechanism by which potential human energy
and strength are translated into real work capacity.



What are the three macronutrients in our diet? Give an example of each. - ANS>> Protein - meat

Carbohydrates - broccoli

Fat - Butter



What's crossfit's definition of health? - ANS>> health is defined as work capacity across broad time
and modal domains throughout life. sustained fitness.



Describe the roles of hormones, like insulin and glucagon, for blood sugar control - ANS>> Insulin
regulates the sugar in our blood.



Articulate the effects a highly refined and processed carbohydrate diet can have on health - ANS>> It
can lead to increased insulin levels.



Define hyperinsulinemia - ANS>> Hyperinsulinemia is the chronic and acute elevation of insulin as a
result of habitual consumption of excess carbohydrate.



Articulate the dangers of chronically elevated insulin levels. - ANS>> Elevated insulin levels can lead
to coronary disease, cancer, and Alzheimers



Identify the diseases that make up the "Deadly Quartet" and the biggest risk factor for developing those
conditions - ANS>> (obesity, glucose intolerance, high blood pressure, high triglycerides), and
coronary heart disease, he claims, are avoidable through dietary means.



Identify the recommended diet for avoiding sickness - ANS>> Stay away from processed foods which
increase insulin production. Zone Diet.



Identify the CrossFit recommendation for optimizing performance - ANS>> The Zone Diet is what
takes optimizes performance.
