Rich seems like such a kind, thoughtful person. The way he talks about his kids and wife is so lovely. He’s built his life to be able to do what he loves, hang out with his friends and run a successful business. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. I met him a couple of years ago and he could not have been more kind and lovely.
I had only "seen" Rich Froning in the Netflix series and this interview provides a fresh perspective. I especially liked his comments on the benefits of physical activities and teamsports for children.
27:11 - the way Rich's arm is angled makes his right arm look SUPER jacked and his left arm look really small. Of course we know without any doubt Froning is a machine! Awesome video!!
I remember watching a video where Mat Fraser was training with Rich at his house. Later, Mat said that Rich didn't have any secrets about training and Rich just trains harder than anyone else. Rich is one of those people that you can be on a team with and he will push you to work harder because he pushes himself to outwork other people.
In 2013, i tweeted to Rich that he needed to learn to swim, he answered back " Thanks for letting me know" . I still laugh about that moment, bloody GOAT. Thanks for doing this.
Thank you, Craig, for this! This interview is probably my all-time favorite interview to date! Hope to get to meet you someday.. I'm a big fan. Come to the Philippines next time!
Froning is such an alpha male: extremely sure of himself, but not hunting approval or sympathy; doesn’t compromise with himself; and yet he is exerts tremendous kindness and helpfulness. No wonder people flock around him. Or like the man says himself: lead by example.
Any chance we can get him to run for president? What a down to earth, humble, God fearing, family man! He says he's not a motivational speaker, but after hearing a 30 minute interview, I want to improve myself. That's the face of CrossFit I would want.
Yes! Come to Oz Rich. Craig one question for the athletes to interview, get them to show us their hands, do they have many rips or calluses on those bad boys.
