Define CrossFit - CORRECT ANSWER-CrossFit is constantly varied functional
movements performed at high
... [Show More] intensity
Characteristics of function movements: - CORRECT ANSWER-Natural, Universal Motor
recruitment pattern, essential, safe, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity, high
power producing
Define most important characteristics - CORRECT ANSWER-Capacity to move large
loads over long distance (high power producing)
Define and calculate work - CORRECT ANSWER-capacity is the ability to perform real
physical work as measured by force x distance / time (which is average power). Fitness
is this ability in as many domains as possible
Define and calculate power - CORRECT ANSWER-Work capacity is the ability to
perform real physical work as measured by force x distance / time (which is average
power). Fitness is this ability in as many domains as possible. Science is about
measurement and prediction
Understand relative changes in force, distance and time change power output -
CORRECT ANSWERArticulate the characteristics of function movements;
Natural: - CORRECT ANSWER-involves the movement of multiple joints for every
activity
Articulate the characteristics of function movements;
Universal Motor Recruitment Patterns: - CORRECT ANSWER-To use all of your
muscles to move in symphony efficiently, effectively, and quickly from one place to
another
Articulate the characteristics of function movements;
Essential: - CORRECT ANSWER-Quality of life, if we don't use them we lose them
Articulate the characteristics of function movements;
Safe - CORRECT ANSWER-functional movements done correctly. All movements must
be safe when utilizing proper form.
Articulate the characteristics of function movements;
Compound yet Irreducible: - CORRECT ANSWER-Multi-joint movements. You can't
break the movement down to smaller exercises or functional movements.
Articulate the characteristics of function movements;
Core to extremity: - CORRECT ANSWER-The movement starts from your core and
works its way out.
Articulate the characteristics of function movements;
High-Power Producing: - CORRECT ANSWER-load, distance, speed-uniquely qualify
functional movements for the production of high power.;
Identify the most important characteristic: - CORRECT ANSWER-Power (force X
distance/time)
Define and calculate work: - CORRECT ANSWER-ability to perform real physical work.
Force X Distance
Define and calculate Power: - CORRECT ANSWER-time rate of doing work. Force X
distance/time
Understand how relative changes in force, distance, and time change power output. -
CORRECT ANSWER-100 pounds moved 20ft in 1 min= 2000ib ft/min
100 pounds moved 20ft in 10 min= 200ib ft/min
10pounds moved 20ft in 1 min=200ib ft/min
Describe intensity and how it is related to power: - CORRECT ANSWERPower=Intensity. Intensity is power. Intensity is the independent variable commonly
associated with max favorable adaption to exercise.
Articulate the relationship between intensity and results: - CORRECT ANSWERIntensity brings results
Define variance: - CORRECT ANSWER-Prep for random physical challenges, unknown
and unknowable.
Define general physical preparedness: - CORRECT ANSWER-i [Show Less]
