2014 Games 

Same, it’s so mesmerizing

Glad I’m not the only one who still comes back here

I'm a crossfitter and I respectfully disagree. Calling people ignorant to the methodology of crossfit "idiots" is unnecessarily disrespectful and frankly, pretty unintelligent in and of itself. He's talking about METCONS vs. the complete picture, it's not serious enough for name calling. "Misguided," "ill-informed" or simply "they don't understand" would've sufficed. We get it though, he's passionate. I imagine discussion on topics outside of working out with Rich Froning to be inspiring and thought provoking.

***** He literally gets tested all the time. They show up at hotels and random places they know he's going to be. (this is what I've heard so I can't say this as a 100% fact. Just trust me, though… he's not on roids.)

Michael Wright Well, in my experience, there's a willing ignorance about CrossFit and crazy hatred and name-calling directed at CF. Having a conversation about how strength and conditioning are within CF and that metcons should be used to track progress or in competition settings doesn't usually work with the people I've encountered. So if they won't hear reason and are unwilling to have a candid discussion without getting caught up on something like kipping in a competition, they are idiots.

Ambis Magee I think we all encounter the same issues socializing the validity of crossfit. I don't debate with the uninformed about it and if I did, I honestly wouldn't mind being called an evangelist. Top "personal trainer" cert programs teach HIIT that looks alot like crossfit to me. It's evidence based, results driven and time tested. It's science. I predict our military to centralize their training methodology around cf in the near future (they're already incorporating it now). And no question, Froning is our Tiger Woods of the 00's. He's an amazing athlete and I appreciate what he's done for the sport through performance alone. My assertion was based upon the notion that the top reps of our community should treat their leadership role with respect. However, I'm pushing 50. 20 years ago, I would've been on board with "**** em, if they don't get it or refuse to try to get it, **** em!" Anyway, there's a more than a solid chance that only crossfitters have made it that far into the video.

48:15 to 51:34

Dude Forreal it motivated me to get in shape. It sucks there’s 50 ads now

A lot of assumptions in there. Some people like to run, crossfit, yoga, or body build. To each their own.

Claudio Mota III the video doesn't seem to be about, or for, some people. It seems to be about and for crossfitters.

mike alley he said that buff ass people in the gym look miserable and assumes they hate their lives which isn't true. Different people like different things. I didn't know you had to cross fit to be dedicated toward fitness.

Roger that.

Lukas Pommerenke You could probably find crossfit people who don't have fun in their workouts too. All my bodybuilding friends freaking love pumping iron in the gym, as do I.

sure its a big thing!

This part would have been cool for 1-2 minutes. After like 10 minutes I thought my youtube changed channels while I wasnt paying attention.

I love every part of the video she's in. ...

What a smug a-hole.

Dan Stennis ää

@@danstennis1817 Or he's right. As I know the man I can tell you smug is not the case.

I see you posted this4 yes ago. I'm assuming you have watched the Fittest on Earth documentaries?

He stayed the same. Didn't he also finish 2nd in 2015?

@@TheMystery51 yes

+Alan Lithgow haha same here

+Alan Lithgow 10 months later, and I too just did the same thing.. oh i'll watch this for a bit before bed. nope.

If Crossfit ever has sleeping for time as an event I'll OWN Froning and Fraser......

CrossFit® at first i read LMAAAAYOOO as part of the comment. lol

This is awesome! I am just getting into crossfit. Is this a good jump rope? www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TD75HHM

Batshit insane, in her own way. But she overcame a shitload of struggle and adversity to do what she did so kudos

I liked this video in a different way than I liked The Fittest On Earth. I love both but this one seems more focused on the athletes personal philosophies and beliefs about themselves and the sport, while FOE was meant to be just entertaining footage of the games.

P

Gordo Thomas Lol thats just 1 person.. doesnt mean anything.

***** Look at this denial and delusion. Way to represent the crossshit community, this is EXACTLY what I'm talking about. And you wonder why champions NEVER train in Crosshit, NFL players, Jon Jones, GSP, Ronda Rousey, Floyd Mayweather, Hockey athletes. LMAO! Just the mediocre insecure people that feel the need to stand out and swing around on the pullup bar like a fish out of water.

Gordo Thomas How can you call crossfit athletes mediocre weightlifters? Mat Fraser was an olympic weightlifter and is elite. Many og the athletes have 600+ deadlifts and 450+ squats. You also mention that other pro athletes in different sports don't do crossfit, which is a lie. Head Coach Sean Payton of the New Orleans Saints has incorporated crossfit into the team's workouts. They actually benefit from that type of training. Boxers and MMA fighters usually don't do crossfit, although there is exceptions, but there's a reason for that. They train for a specific reason, which is to fight, and therefore they go through a specific type of training. So why should they do crossfit? To me you sound like the stereotypical tough guy that hates crossfit because it's "homosexual". Btw.. I would like to see you compete in a crossfit workout against any of the athletes that ever participated in the Crossfit Games. You would get crushed in every single workout by every single of them, so why don't you shut up.

Oscar Gonzalez You mean there are 1 or 2 people who were olympic athletes that turned to crosshit? No shit, there have been olympic athletes that have turned to everything. They've turned to drugs, they've turned to murdering, some have joined other sports like UFC, Hockey or wrestling. Is that your stamp of approval? "Well olympic athletes have done it so it's okay!" Crosshit isn't a sport. It's a cult. It's $100+ a month to have DYEL clueless egotistcle douche bags tell you that jumping on a box and doing 50 snatches with 95lbs will make you a "true" athlete. It's horse shit for naive people.

waskly wabbit >This is how delusional Crosshitters are LOL! Representing your community is it's truest form! Bravo

You're such a nerd!

Mitchell Wright :(

+Alyssa Boulton I watch this video everyday before i go to the gym. it gets me going

You're my favourite ever!

Or when Bridges said he was a little afraid of going in the ocean. He's a Navy SEAL, he's lived in the ocean.

@@tidefanyankee2428 Oh man I completely forgot he was a Navy SEAL! I also just found out Dave Castro is a SEAL as well. Did not expect that.

@@TheMystery51 There have been other SEAL's who've competed at the Crossfit Game as well.

@@tidefanyankee2428 Thanks, I will look them up. It seems like a lot of the male athletes were former college football players who did not make it to the NFL.

Rich Froning is like the crossfit version of Hercules.
