What is crossfit ✔✔Constantly varied functional movements executed at high intensity
Constantly varied ✔✔General physical preparedness (GPP)
What is General Physical Preparedness ✔✔Term used to describe the generalised base qualities
of an athlete
What's the aim of GPP ✔✔To establish a board foundational fitness level that can then be
converted and applied throughout a wide range of tasks hoping to consistently make gains in the
10 general physical skills of fitness which prepares you for any physical challenge
What is functional movement ✔✔Natural seen in nature, universal motor recruitment patterns,
essential to quality of life, compound yet irreducible, core to extremity = efficiency
What is UMRP ✔✔Universal motor recruitment patterns
Name the CrossFit models ✔✔1 - Ten general physical skills
2 - The Hopper
3 - Three metabolic pathways
4 - Sickness Wellness Fitness Continuum
What are the 10 general physical skills? ✔✔1 - cardio & respiratory endurance
2 - stamina
3 - strength
4 - flexibility
5 - power
6 - speed

imaginable.
This model suggests that your fitness can be measured by your capacity to perform well at these
tasks in relation to other individuals.
Name the 3 metabolic pathways? ✔✔1 - Phosphagen
2 - glycolytic
3 - oxidative
Define Phosphagen Pathway ✔✔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
Define glycolytic pathway ✔✔Mix of Anaerobic and aerobic
No more then 2 mins work
Typically 400m sprint
70% power/effort
Type 2a muscles fibres
Define oxidative pathway ✔✔Aerobic
Anything over 2 mins work capacity
Low intensity efforts 40%
Type 1 muscle fibres
Marathon runners, triathlons etc.
What is the 4th CrossFit model? ✔✔Sickness, well, fit continuum model
Define the 4th model ✔✔Health makers measuring from sickness to fitness
Parameters at mainly sickness, wellness and fitness
