Definition of Crossfit ✔✔constantly varied, high intensity, functional movement
(also known as Crossfits prescription)
What is functional movement ✔✔load, distance, and speed for production of high power
Define intensity ✔✔power
(intensity is the independent variable)
Crossfit methodology: ✔✔safety, efficacy, and efficiency
(the 3 most important and interdependent facets to evaluate any fitness program, can be
supported only by measurable, observable, repeatable data)
10 fitness domains of Crossfit: ✔✔cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength,
flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy
,Define athlete ✔✔a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring
physical strength, agility, or stamina
Define Crossfit athlete ✔✔a person who is skilled or trained in strength, power, balance, and
agility, flexibility, and endurance
How is energy derived? ✔✔aerobically when O2 is utilized to metabolize substrates derived
from food and liberates energy
Aerobic activity: ✔✔are usually greater than 90 seconds in duration and involve low to moderate
power output or intensity
Ex: running on treadmill for 20 min, swimming a mile, watching TV
Anaerobic activity: ✔✔energy is liberated from substances in the absence of O2; these activities
are of less than 2 min in duration and involve moderate to high power output intensity
Ex: 100 m sprint, squatting, pull ups
Anaerobic systems: ✔✔phosphagen and glycolytic (lactic acid)
, 2 Olympic lifts: ✔✔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: ✔✔increased in testosterone, insulin-like
growth factor, and human growth hormone
Adaptive responses to exercises capable of producing a significant neuroendocrine response:
✔✔mass and bone density
Power ✔✔time rate of doing work; also the definition of intensity
What is associated with high neuroendocrine response? ✔✔heavy load weight lifting, short rest
between sets, high heart rates, high intensity training, short rest intervals
Cross training vs Crossfit ✔✔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
