Q

Cortisol is the worst thing to have in your body in the long term why?

A

It stops you from using the energy from food properly, and it causes you to put on weight and break down muscle tissue

Q

Milk post recovery why?

A

In fact, there is just about the right amount of carbohydrate and lipid in milk to be optimal for post-exercise recovery—a good balance of the three macronutrients: protein, fat, and carbohydrate. It has been suggested by some research that chocolate milk is even better.

A

”Emotionally arousing events tend to be better remembered than neutral events” (2; p79).

51
Q

Example for emotional arousing drill

A

executing a good super-slow air squat so that you can roll a medicine ball and knock over foam rollers . This emotional connection is not only important for the short term recall, but more importantly for a long term, positive association between exercise and feeling good .

52
Q

Evidence, in fact, exists that physical activity is a means to also protect against

A

From the opposite perspective, chronic (and incongruent) stress negatively impacts learning (2,6) . Additionally, chronic stress can reduce efforts to be physically active as well as recovery from activity (7,8). A goal of CrossFit Kids classes should be to provide opportunities for success and learning to overcome hurdles . For children with stressful home and/or scholastic environments, these classes may be one of the few positive moments their day . Evidence, in fact, exists that physical activity is a means to also protect against and remediate the effects of stress (9,10).

53
Q

effective way of teaching

A

John Medina (2; p83) explains that “memory normally works by recording the gist of what we encounter, not by retaining the literal record of the experience.” Establishing larger themes first, before delving into intricate details may be a more effective way of teaching

54
Q

Preschoolers are taught full movements from the start, for example

A

ull range-of-motion air squat or shoulder press

55
Q

Three general positions are cued to delineate the extent of each movement

A

athlete starts, goes to, and finishes

56
Q

the goal is their introduction for familiarity not full compliance

A

hese refer to the minimum positions that must be achieved, and are also the limits of our expectations as CrossFit Kids Trainers . Although more detailed points of performance may be covered in skill work (e .g . knees out or weight on heels) for these young ages, the goal is their introduction for familiarity not full compliance . Increasingly more detailed instruction is provided to older age groups, although they all still begin with the simplest global cues; the progression to details however, occurs on an ever more condensed timeline, from years to perhaps months .

57
Q

e final detail added to the long-term instruction of any movement

A

It is worth noting that the final detail added to the long-term instruction of any movement is inten- sity, either load or speed .

58
Q

Dr . Richard Mayer support the conclusion

A

that “groups in multisensory environments always do better than the groups in unisensory environment

59
Q

For all ages teaching

A

For all ages, the desired movement pattern is shown (visual)
while the points of performance are established (verbal)
, and the class does the movement (tactile) .

60
Q

In preschool and kids

A

four to six weeks is spent working on a specific skill, allowing the material to be presented in numerous contexts with the intent of peaking the interest of and engaging as many children as possible . For example, the beginning of the deadlift for preschoolers may be cued by calling it the “angry gorilla .” That “start” position can be taught by telling a story about a trip to the zoo, having a contest for the angriest gorilla, explain- ing how strong gorillas are, or just telling them how fun it is to pretend . Essentially, one enhances the instruction by briefly, yet creatively elaborating on the age-appropriate “what,” “how,” or “why.”

61
Q

motor skill learning,

A

Although movement repetition itself is a key ingredi- ent to motor skill learning,
so may be the extensive cognitive processes that occur during the repetitions (11,12,13,14), leading to enhanced motor solutions .

A

ndeed, Meltzoff (15) also states “imitation accelerates learning and multiplies learning opportu- nities. It is faster than individual discovery and safer than trial-and-error learning.” Imitation is most effective when the transfer occurs from a “skilled to an unskilled agent”

75
Q

spouses a program CrossFit Kids

A

CrossFit Kids espouses a program of constantly varied, functional movements, executed at a relative (and age-appropriate) high intensity; and is governed by the progression of establishing sound mechanics and demonstrating consistency before intensity (load or speed) is introduced or increased (9) .

76
Q

“The process of practice towards the achievement of new motor habits

A

Because of this, practice, when properly undertaken, does not consist in repeating the means of solution of a motor problem time after time, but in the process of solving this problem again and again by techniques which we changed and perfected from repetition to repetition .

Q

. In girls

A

but bone growth and accrual is disproportionately greater when expressed in relation to muscle mass, The implication of this is that the effect of circulating reproductive hormones is to increase the sensitivity of female skeletons to load compared with males

A

eta-analysis “supports previous research highlighting the advantage of performing high-impact, weight-bearing activity on bone mineral accrual during prepubescence and imply that even non-competitive levels of weight-bearing exercise can exert a positive influence on the bone health of young girls” (20

94
Q

Wolff’s Law

A

The process through which physical activity can cause greater bone accrual is described by Wolff’s Law (21). Bones react and remodel according to the forces put on them, in this case strengthening them .

95
Q

Bones can sense the forces exerted on them

Bones can sense the forces exerted on them by mechanotransduction (21,22) .

A

High frequency impact activities such as jumping and bounding, broadly termed impact loading, are an effec- tive means to cause rapid force changes and perhaps elicit positive changes

100
Q

Which is better static hold or sudden load for bone growth in kids.

A

The rather slow lifting phase as well as the static hold may do far less to influence bone mass than the sudden de-loading (high frequency change) when the weight is dropped (or the rapid loading in a jerk)

101
Q

cause rapid force changes and perhaps elicit positive changes

A

High frequency impact activities such as jumping and bounding, broadly termed impact loading, are an effec- tive means to cause rapid force changes and perhaps elicit positive changes (24) . Without an external load, these activities are self-scaled by ability to reduce the risk of injury . Regarding load, the rather slow lifting phase as well as the static hold may do far less to influence bone mass than the sudden de-loading (high frequency change) when the weight is dropped (or the rapid loading in a jerk)(23)
