Define CrossFit
|
Constantly varied, high-intensity, functional movements
|
|
Define Variance
|
Preparing for random physical challenges IE the unknown and unknowable events
|
|
Define general physical preparedness (GPP) and identify the relationship of variance between GPP
|
GPP = broad, general and inclusive and variance creates this general condition which prepares you for the unknown
|
|
Explain the concept of failing at the margins of your experience and how it relates to GPP and variance
|
Constant variance prepares you at your margins of experience to prevent failure at margins of experience
|
|
Articulate the difference between specialization and GPP
|
GPP is random and broad; specialisation is focussing on specific skills
|
|
Define Intensity
|
Power -
Intensity is the independent variable most commonly associated with maximizing favorable adaptions to exercise |
|
What are the 7 defining characteristics of Functional Movement
|
*natural
*universal motor recruitment patterns *essential *safe *compound yet irreducible *core to extremity *high power producing |
|
natural =?
universal motor recruitment patterns =? essential =? safe =? compound yet irreducible =? core to extremity =? high power producing =? |
*natural = involve multiple joint movements
*universal motor recruitment patterns = found in everyday life *essential = to independent living & quality of life & inhibits increpitude *safe = mechanically sound & safe post 1 max rep *compound yet irreducible = you cannot breakdown into individual movements and get the same benefit *core to extremity = mid line stabilization *high power producing = load, distance, speed |
|
Identify the definitive characteristic of functional movements
|
move a large load a long distance & quickly
|
|
Define and calculate work
|
Ability to perform real physical work as measured by force x distance
|
|
Define and calculate power
|
time rate of doing work or force x distance/time
|
|
Describe how power is related to intensity
|
Power = intensity
|
|
Articulate the relationship between intensity and results related to fitness goals
|
Intensity brings results
|
|
Identify the difference between absolute and relative intensity
|
absolute intensity is a number or result -
relative differs by degree not kind and is different for each individual which is based on the mental and physical ability of the athlete |
