Mat Fraser's Return to the OPEN

We're back with PART 2 from our jam-packed Friday Night Lights weekend at HWPO HQ. Inspired by the 80+ members getting after it, Mat Fraser decided to hit 24.3 and you don't want to miss it.
HARD WORKERS traveled from near and far to partake in the festivities, including workshops from HWPO LIFT Coach Aimee Anaya Everett, HWPO STRONG Coach Rob Kearney, and Concept 2. Plus, we had epic giveaways, provided this crew the elite athlete experience for the day, and so much more. We can't WAIT to host the community in Vermont again soon.
Special thank you to the Association of Fitness Judges (AFJ), our Proud Partners (Ice Barrel, GOWOD, Concept 2, Podium and YETI) and R.A.D for elevating the event.
HARD WORK is a global phenomenon. To join the worldwide community, visit hwpotraining.com.

Now THAT is what i call Click Bait

[@docmarcano4456]

I came to see him doing it and his time 😢

[@amirmorales620]

I know right , skipped the whole vid looking for his workout

[@docmarcano4456]

@@amirmorales620 me too!! Two times to make sure I didn’t missed it 😔😂

[@greg9767]

Yeah man…I got a bit too excited!

[@pulidojoker88]

Not the same without MOB. But she has an awesome channel now.

[@johnmccrary6712]

Shaun and Laura Bailey's story is incredible! Real life stories hit the hardest and grateful Shaun was able to share his wife's story and struggle with cancer! Go Laura!!!!

[@ZachDylik]

I was so excited to watch him do the workout...

[@milesbaldwin7035]

3 seconds into the video and I got goosebumps! Mat made an absolute impact!! I miss it! 💪🏼

[@cdutch513]

I love the spotlight on the Laura and Shaun. Very touching!

[@stang93ful]

Look obviously the video was great and the people and stories in it were very heartfelt and amazing, but making us believe that we were gonna get to watch Mat do the workout and then not was kind of crap. We deal with enough clickbait bullshit from so many losers on here. I don’t want the people I love watching starting to do it too. It’s fake bait man. Having said that I hope it was for everyone and I truly send my thoughts and prayers to the woman battling cancer. God bless her🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@raymonarias6811]

Is it crap though? Yeah it would have been bad ass to see him so the workout but that's not him anymore. He's about the people around him like always. Giving others the spotlight now and showcasing their abilities and their stories. Everyone knows Mats story and accomplishments. I for one loved everything about this video, don't think it was crap at all.

[@leilarashid2413]

Wow HWPO team has had an incredible , priceless impact on so many ❤

[@kimolv]

God bless the Bailey family- it’s great that the HWPO family is there to support them!

[@mistameanor1]

This made me nostalgic for the Fraser era. Y’all are so lucky to have Aimee. She’s the best.

[@mariorodriguez7705]

Proud to be part of the programming and HWPO community. Drives me to keep at it and keep getting better.

[@zacktelander]

What a weekend. HWPO family is somethin special ❤

[@NoelNole1221]

So cool, hope to see HQ one day, so awesome to be seeing the hard work paying off for so many people

[@anthonyadams4081]

[@CoreyLunney]

DJ Reemie!!! Fun fact, he lost over 100lbs and is now an awesome affiliate owner and coach! What a guy!

[@elusivebutsatisfyingt.9166]

The HWPO Community is goddamn amazing. Mat is missing from the competition floor, it was a privilege to watch him make history, but oh my god did he create something incredible.

[@Brentmovson]

Man, watching Matt, even if it's just for fun really brings back some fire in me seeing him go. Such a legened to watch. I miss watching him just dominate everyone

[@TheMovementDr]

Story development was on point. Always catching the key points of weekend

[@Rowanmeme]

All the feels on this!! You guys are killing it👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@cleberalmeida9974]

Hello from Brazil. Amazing job , Fraser !

[@cdutch513]

I am so mad that I couldn't go. I looked into flights when the email went out and it was just too much with a newborn. Next year!

[@shaunbailey5542]

Next time brother, we look forward to seeing you at the next one!

[@davidboyle9732]

[@puravidaot]

That was an amazing story. Cancer sucks

[@papaschris]

Don’t know why but I love watching Fraser doin muscle ups.

[@kennedyracing7527]

Matt you’re super slim compared with your CrossFit championships

[@beto_og5595]

Poor vellner @16:11 😂

[@Robyamdam]

if physical 100 ever comes to america, this is the guy we call

[@eddalomt]

El crossfit para mi murió, el día que Fraser anunció su retiro. No ha habido alguien que domine tanto el juego como el lo hacía. Siento que los juegos perdieron la chispa que los caracterizaba por ver a bestias que dominarían todos los wods. Era genial ver quien se pelearía los puestos inferiores. Nadie a amado este juego como este señor Fraser lo hace.

[@jameslavergne1182]

Hey it’s Rob Kearney!

[@tyjune8639]

@aimeeeverett is such a VIBE!!

[@josephgambill3754]

Next HWPO shirt. Show up and win.

[@juansamaniego8306]

It's awesome, the Five time Champ, it's alive

[@alexfeldman3716]

Come on) Can anybody say Mat’s time of 24.3??)) It’s not comeback, not comeback 🙌🏼 😅 Simply interesting (in comparison with my own time)

[@RandyLe-cb2eb]

[@swat486]

[@tonymeinerding7463]

[@stacceyes5911]

Enough with the click bait.

[@chrishutchison621]

[@NorseNoahJ]

[@erica9563]

Weird vibe here fpr the weightlifting love Amie

[@alexlzomrt]

Nice clickbait

[@soyisaacrangel8748]

😠

[@vuton7670]

[@helieldias9340]

Click bait

[@vanillaghetto]

Fire the camera person/s. Really annoying.

[@lostitiarias2078]

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

[@andreassandstrom5101]

He is not in the Open. Stop lying

[@Otainment_47]

They need to stop those pull ups and muscle ups everything else is goood but those pull ups man wth is that….

[@missionbelle28]

Man, the guy who cried about herniating a disc must feel like an ass having his story follow the guy whose wife has cancer.

[@jomlin143]

Not necessarily. A person's trial doesn't diminish anyone else's. If that's *his* hard, who are we to judge?

[@artefactsbubble3742]

Weak effort from Fraser click baiting everyone and not showing his time. His ego won’t allow the world to know he doesn’t have the best time anymore but we already know. It’s ok brother.

[@martinle2865]

So Mat is no longer with Nike? 🫥
