Question 11.
What's the aim of the Hopper?
Correct Answer: Physical challenge lottery Measurable tasks Quantifiable
Balance of skills and drills The performance of athletic tasks, fitness is about
being able to perform 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.
Question 12.
Name the 3 metabolic pathways?
Correct Answer: 1 - Phosphagen 2 - glycolytic 3 - oxidative
Question 13.
Define Phosphagen Pathway
Correct 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
Question 14.
Define glycolytic pathway
Correct Answer: Mix of Anaerobic and aerobic No more then 2 mins work
Typically 400m sprint 70% power/effort Type 2a muscles fibres
,Question 15.
Define oxidative pathway
Correct Answer: Aerobic Anything over 2 mins work capacity Low intensity
efforts 40% Type 1 muscle fibres Marathon runners, triathlons etc.
Question 16.
What is the 4th CrossFit model?
Correct Answer: Sickness, well, fit continuum model
Question 17.
Define the 4th model
Correct Answer: Health makers measuring from sickness to fitness Parameters
at mainly sickness, wellness and fitness Health makers measurements such
as: Resting heart rate Blood pressure Deadlift weight Markers should move
towards fitness Work capacity across a broad time and modal domains Add
third axis being age for health
Question 18.
So fitness can be defined as
Correct Answer: Work capacity across a broad time and model domains
• What are the major lifts involved CF? -✓✓Deadlift Squat Clean Presses Clean
& jerk Snatch
Question 19.
Explain the general guide on macronutrients
Correct Answer: Meat, vegetables, nuts & seeds, some fruit, little starch, no
sugar.keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.
Question 20.
What are the basic moves in the gymnastic section?
Correct Answer: Pull ups Dips Rope climbs Push ups Presses to handstand
Pirouettes Flips Splits Holds
Question 21.
5 causes of a bad squat?
Correct Answer: 1) Weak glute/hamstring. The glutes and hams are
responsible for powerful hip extension, which is the key to the athletic
performance universe.
2) Poor engagement, weak control, and no awareness of glute and hamstring.
, The road to powerful, effective hip extension is a three to ve year odyssey for
most athletes.
3) Resulting attempt to squat with quads. Leg extension dominance over hip
extension is a leading obstacle to elite performance in athletes.
4) In exibility. Tight hamstrings are a powerful contributor to slipping into
lumbar exion-the worst fault of all.
5) Sloppy work, poor focus. This is not going to come out right by accident. It
takes incredible e ort. The more you work on the squat, the more awareness
you develop as to its complexity.
Question 22.
Name 7 squat faults?
Correct Answer:
Question 23.
What are the three movement series?
Correct Answer: 1 - Squat 2 - Press 3 - Deadlift
Question 24.
Name the 9 foundational movements from the 3 movements series:
Correct Answer: 1 - Air Squat 2 - Front Squat 3 - Overhead Squat 4 - Press 5 -
Push Press 6 - Push Jerk 7 - Deadlift 8 - Sumo Deadlift High Pull 9 - Medball
Clean
Question 25.
Give 5 reasons for the 3 movement series
Correct Answer: 1- MLS midline stabilisation
2- AS active shoulders (retraction/elevation of scapula)
3- Posterior Chain Engagement (heels down and balance in frontal chain)
4- ROM range of movement (specific to each exercise) 5- Core to Extremity
(stars at centre and radiates out)
Question 26.
Explain the The Air Squat sequence?
Correct Answer: 1-set up: shoulder-width stance
2-hips descend back and down, - lumber curve maintained - knees in line with
toes - hips descend lower then knees - heels down
3- finish: complete at full hip & knee extension
