The aim of Crossfit
Forge a broad, general, and inclusive fitness. To build a program that would best prepare trainees for any physical contingency-prepare them not only for the unknown but for the unknowable
Crossfit is...

CV-FM-HI




Constantly Varied, Functional Movement, High Intensity

The prescription of Functional Movements
Functional Movements: are universal motor recruitment patterns; They are performed in a wave of contraction from the core to extremity; They are compound movements, they are multi joint
Meaningfull Statements to evaluate.
Saftey, efficacy, efficiency,
Ten General Physical skills (first fitness model)

Cardiovasculair/respiratory endurance (Organic, through training)


Stamnia (Organic, through training)


Strenght (Organic, through training)


Flexibility (Organic, through training)


Power (adaptions, training and practice)


Speed (adaptions, training and practice)


Coordination (Neurological , through practice)


agility (Neurological , through practice)


balance (Neurological , through practice)


accuracy (Neurological , through practice)



Crossfit is a core strenght and conditioning program in two distinct senses

1: we are a core strenght and conditioning program in the sense that the fitness we develop is foundational to all other athletic needs.




2: we are a core strenght and coditioning program in the literal sense of meaning the center of something.

Whats an athlete?
An athlete is a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strenght, agility or stamnia
crossfit defenition of an athlete
a person who is trained or skilled in strenght, power, balance and agility, flexibility and endurance.
Cardiovasculair/respiratory Endurance.
The ability of body systems to gather, process, and deliver oxygen
Stamnia

The ability of body systems to process, deliver, store and utilize energy
Strenght

the ability of a musculair unit of combination of musculair units, to apply force

Flexibility

The abiltiy to maximize the range of motion at a given joint
Power

The ability of a musculair unit, or combination of musculair units, to apply maximum force in minimum time.

Speed

The abitily to minimize the time cycle of a repeated movement
Coordination

The ability to combine serveral distinct movements patterns into a singular distinct movement.
Agility

The ability to minimize transition time from one movement pattern to a other
Balance

The ability to controle the placement of the body's center of gravity in relation to its support base
Accuracy

The abiltiy to controle movement in a given direction at a given intensity
Second Fitness Model: The Hopper
The essence of this model is the view that fitness is about performing well at any and every task imaginable

Third Fitness Model: The Metabolic Pathways



Phosphagen (phosphocreatine) Pathway


Glycolytic (lactate) Pathway


Oxidative (aerobic) Pathway



Phosphagen (phosphocreatine) Pathway guidelines

Maximum- intensity 100%


Anaerobic


Location (Cytosol of muscle cells)


Duration of work 10-30 seconds


Duraton of recovery 30-90 seconds


Load recovery ratio 1:3


Interval repetitions 25-30

Glycolytic (lactate) Pathway guidelines

Medium high- intensity 70%


Anaerobic


Location (Cytosol of all cells)


Duration of work 30-120 seconds


Duraton of recovery 60-240 seconds


Load recovery ratio 1:2


Interval repetitions 10-20

Oxidative (aerobic) Pathway guidelines

Low- intensity efforts 40%


Aerobic


Location (Mitochondria of cells)


Duration of work 120-300 seconds


Duraton of recovery 120-300 seconds


Load recovery ratio 1:1


Interval repetitions 3-5

Forth Fitness Model: Sickness-Wellness-Fitness Continuum

Sickness-Wellness-Fitness




Based on measuremnts of:


Blood Presure


Body Fat


Bone Density


Triglycerides


Good and Bad Cholesterol


Flexibility


Mucle Mass


Etc.

A Theoretical Hierarchy of Development

Sport


Weightlifting and Throwing


Gymnastics


Metabolic conditioning

Power (average)
Force x Distance / Time
Fitness is defined as
work capacity across broad time and modal domains
Health is defined as
Work capacity across braod time and modal domains throughout life
Fitness is
Your ability to move large loads, long distance, quickly, in the broadest variety of domains
Health is
Sustained fitness
