Question: 1 / 50

Which of the following is NOT one of CrossFit's Four Models for evaluating fitness?

The 10 General Physical Skills

The Strength Assessment

The Strength Assessment is not one of CrossFit's Four Models for evaluating fitness. CrossFit identifies specific models that provide a comprehensive framework for understanding fitness, focusing on various aspects of an individual's physical capabilities and wellbeing. The 10 General Physical Skills encompass a broad range of attributes like cardiovascular endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy. These skills reflect what individuals can develop through training and are fundamental to building overall fitness. The Metabolic Pathways delineate the three energy systems (phosphagen, glycolytic, and oxidative) that the body uses to produce energy, each playing a critical role in various types of physical activity. Understanding these pathways helps trainers design workouts that effectively target different energy demands. The Sickness and Wellness Continuum illustrates the spectrum of physical health, from optimal wellness at one end to sickness at the other. It serves as a guiding principle for assessing an individual's health status and designing appropriate interventions. While strength assessments can be valuable in evaluating an individual's abilities, they do not constitute one of the primary models used by CrossFit to define and evaluate fitness. This distinction is crucial for trainers as they devise holistic training programs based on these established models.
