CrossFit Level 1 Trainer Certification Exam

Question 1

During a group class, a coach notices multiple athletes exhibiting different movement faults during the overhead squat. Which of the following is the most effective strategy for the coach to employ?

Address the entire class with a general cue that targets the most common fault observed. Stop the class and have each athlete demonstrate the movement one by one. Ignore the faults as long as the athletes are moving and completing reps. Correct each athlete individually with specific tactile cues during the workout.

Correct Answer:

Address the entire class with a general cue that targets the most common fault observed.

Question 2

A coach is setting up the gym for a large class that includes barbell work and box jumps. Which of the following represents the LEAST effective strategy for managing the class layout and flow?

Placing the boxes in a random, scattered pattern throughout the open floor space to allow for more workout area. Arranging the barbells in designated lanes with adequate space between each station. Creating designated zones for different parts of the workout, such as a lifting area and a conditioning area. Positioning themselves in a central location to have the broadest possible view of all athletes.

Correct Answer:

Placing the boxes in a random, scattered pattern throughout the open floor space to allow for more workout area.

Question 3

When correcting an athlete's movement, the principle of 'triaging' faults is recommended. In a deadlift, if an athlete has a rounded lumbar spine and is also not fully extending their hips at the top, which fault should the coach address FIRST?

The incomplete hip extension, as it reduces power output. Both faults simultaneously to be as efficient as possible. Neither, as long as the athlete is lifting the weight. The rounded lumbar spine, as it poses the most significant safety risk.

Correct Answer:

The rounded lumbar spine, as it poses the most significant safety risk.

Question 4

Which of the following is the best example of using an 'external cue' to correct an athlete's squat depth?

"Get your hip crease below your knee." "Push the ground away." "Sit your butt back and down." "Touch your hips to the medicine ball."

Correct Answer:

"Touch your hips to the medicine ball."

Question 5

A coach is leading the skill portion of a class, teaching the push press. After demonstrating the movement, what is the most effective next step to ensure athletes are learning correctly?

Immediately have the athletes load a barbell and find a heavy single. Have the athletes perform several reps while the coach provides cues to the group and individuals. Move on to the workout of the day to save time. Ask if anyone has questions and then start the workout.

Correct Answer:

Have the athletes perform several reps while the coach provides cues to the group and individuals.
