CROSSFIT LEVEL 1 CERTIFICATION EXAM
SCRIPT 2026 TEST PAPER QUESTIONS AND
SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
◉ What is power?
Answer: the time rate of doing work
◉ What is the most important characteristic of functional
movement?
Answer: Capacity to move large loads over long distance (high
power producing)
◉ What are the characteristics of functional movement?
Answer: natural, universal motor recruitment patterns, essential,
safe, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity, high power
producing.
◉ Describe intensity
Answer: Intensity is defined exactly as power. High intensity allows
for shorter, high cardio sessions.
◉ What is 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.
◉ What is 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.
◉ What are the four supporting models of Crossfit's definition of
fitness.
Answer: 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.
Answer: 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?
,Answer: 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?
Answer: They provide energy; They are Phosphocreatine, Glycolytic,
and Oxidative. A fit person should be competent in all pathways.
◉ Describe the Phosphocreatine Pathway.
Answer: Anaerobic (absence of oxygen); 10 second intervals; 100
meter dash.
◉ Describe the Glycolytic Pathway.
Answer: Anaerobic (absence of oxygen); 120 second intervals; 400
meter sprint.
◉ Describe the Oxidative Pathway.
Answer: Aerobic (uses oxygen); more than 120 seconds; mile run.
◉ What is the sickness-wellness-fitness continuum? Why is this
model important in defining fitness?
, Answer: 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?
Answer: 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?
Answer: sickness, wellness, and fitness are different measures of a
single quality: health.
◉ Define the power curve.
Answer: 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?
Answer: 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?
