Movement standards

Any movement listed and described in the document is eligible for inclusion in iF3 sanctioned events in the 2019-2020 competition season.

The document sets forth the general regulations applicable to a collection of the most common or otherwise notable athletic tasks employed and evaluated for purposes of events sanctioned by the iF3. The aim of the document is to establish a set of uniform standards applicable to the athletic tasks described for the purpose of enabling comparison of athletic efforts according to a set of uniform standards.

The document does not and cannot list every possible athletic task that can be incorporated into a functional fitness competition, thus event organizers and/or the iF3 will issue special regulations as necessary to establish uniform standards for other athletic tasks as necessary. The document represents an organic effort to encapsulate the most common standards applicable to designated tasks and may change as experience and the needs of the sport may require.

Above all, the document remains an ongoing attempt to refine functional fitness standards into a set of regulations that aim to improve knowledge of functional fitness movements, and to eliminate uncertainty and avoidable exercise of discretion in the execution and evaluation of functional fitness tasks performed at iF3 sanctioned events.
