CROSSFIT L1 COMPREHENSIVE TEST BANK
PRACTICE QUESTIONS AND RATIONALES
●● Constantly varied
Answer: General physical preparedness (GPP)
●● What is General Physical Preparedness
Answer: Term used to describe the generalised base qualities of an
athlete
●● What's the aim of GPP
Answer: To establish a board 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
●● What is functional movement
Answer: Natural seen in nature, universal motor recruitment patterns,
essential to quality of life, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity =
efficiency
●● What is UMRP
Answer: Universal motor recruitment patterns
,●● Name the CrossFit models
Answer: 1 - Ten general physical skills
2 - The Hopper
3 - Three metabolic pathways
4 - Sickness Wellness Fitness Continuum
●● What are the 10 general physical skills?
Answer: 1 - cardio & respiratory endurance
2 - stamina
3 - strength
4 - flexibility
5 - power
6 - speed
7 - coordination

well at any task imaginable.
, This model suggests that your fitness can be measured by your capacity
to perform well at these tasks in relation to other individuals.
●● Name the 3 metabolic pathways?
Answer: 1 - Phosphagen

Answer: Typically anaerobic,
100% high power - low time activities
10 seconds or less
Typically 100m sprint or shot put
1 rep max on deadlift
Type 2b muscle fibres
●● Define glycolytic pathway
Answer: Mix of Anaerobic and aerobic
No more then 2 mins work
Typically 400m sprint
70% power/effort
Type 2a muscles fibres
