CROSSFIT LEVEL 2 EXAM SCRIPT FINAL
PAPER 2026 FULL QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
◉ midline stabilization
Answer: athlete's capacity to prevent movement from this neutral
spinal position; synonymous w/ core strength
◉ Creates midline stabilization
Answer: engagement of abs, internal & external obliques, and spinal
errectors
◉ Deviations from neutral spine
Answer: Flexion, extension
◉ Most risky deviation from neutral/ midline stabilization
Answer: loss of neutral spine during movement
◉ Core to Extremity movements
Answer: a sequence of muscular contraction beginning w/ large
force producing, low velocity muscles of the core and hips and ends
w/ small force producing, high velocity muscles of the extremities
, ◉ Muscles more likely of injury
Answer: smaller muscle groups and tendons/ligaments
◉ Balance about the frontal plane
Answer: athletes movements accommodate the object and may or
may not be characterized by straight lines; frontal plane divides
athlete into anterior/posterior halves (bisects athlete at mid foot
◉ Posterior chain
Answer: hamstrings, glutes, spinal errectors
◉ Posterior chain engagement
Answer: balance of pressure btw balls of feet and heels; creates
increased power generation, helps keep knees in line w/ toes,
promoted midline stabilization and balance about frontal plane
◉ Sound hip function
Answer: athletes ability to flex & extend hip to maximize
contribution to movement
◉ Major safety issues w/ slow or incomplete hip extension
Answer: none
