CROSSFIT LEVEL 2 EXAM COMPREHENSIVE
TEST PAPER QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
◉ 2 Olympic lifts:
Answer: clean and jerk and snatch
(they train athletes to activate more muscle fibers more rapidly
more than through any other modality of training; develop an
athletes explosive power, control of external objects, and mastery of
critical motor recruitment patterns)
◉ Hormonal responses vital to athletic development:.
Answer: increased in testosterone, insulin-like growth factor, and
human growth hormone
◉ Adaptive responses to exercises capable of producing a significant
neuroendocrine response:.
Answer: mass and bone density
◉ Power.
Answer: time rate of doing work; also the definition of intensity
◉ What is associated with high neuroendocrine response?.
,Answer: heavy load weight lifting, short rest between sets, high
heart rates, high intensity training, short rest intervals
◉ Cross training vs Crossfit.
Answer: cross training is participating in several sports and Crossfit
views cross training as exceeding the normal parameters of the
regular demands of your sport training
◉ Functional movement:.
Answer: are mechanically sound and therefor safe, and secondly
they are the movements that elicit a high neuroendocrine response
◉ Crossfit diet:.
Answer: protein 30%; carbohydrates 40%; fat 30%
◉ Protein:.
Answer: total calories based on protein needs which should be
between 0.7 and 1.0 grams of protein per pound of lean body mass
◉ High glycemic carbohydrates:.
Answer: raise blood sugar too rapidly
Ex: rice, bread, candy, potato, sweets, sodas
, ◉ Crossfits 10 general physical skills:.
Answer: cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength,
flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy
◉ Training refers to:.
Answer: activity that improves performance through a measurable
organic change in the body
◉ Practice refers to:.
Answer: activity improves performance through changes in the
nervous system: power and speed and adaptations of both training
and practice
◉ Define accuracy.
Answer: the ability to control movement in a given direction or at a
given intensity
◉ Define balance.
Answer: the ability to control placement of the bodys center of
gravity in relation to its support base
◉ Define agility.
Answer: the ability to minimize transition time from one movement
pattern to another
