Rich Froning - "One on One w/ Becky Magura"

[@HarlyGuy13]

Great video Rich and I have to say you are an outstanding ambassador for the sport! Good luck with your box.

[@brosky117]

Rich Froning is a great role model. I think it says a lot that I would want any of my younger brothers to listen to what he has to say...it's so different from so many other top-level athletes out there. Some might think it's an act, but I believe him when he talks about Christ being so important to him...I hope he wins the Games in 2013!!!

[@turntableable]

Haha, when the dog barked - it made my neighbor who lives above me's dog start barking.

[@tmartinez426]

That wasn't Froning's dog barking, it was his Beast Mode going on hibernate

[@JustinKhoe]

To say crossfit doesn't teach mental toughness reveals you've never done crossfit for any serious length of time.

[@wtfwtfwtf777]

Whew, I've just had a 180 turn on this guy - he's so much nicer than I thought. He obviously keeps himself in check of reality - not being cocky or something. Obviously hard worker too.

[@ysphor]

I like how he said CrossFit is not the way you look at it in the CrossFit Games but the community.

[@CarterMvp]

true, im a body builder and i don't particularly agree with all the crossfit routines, i've seen, but i acknowledge that it takes a tough sob to do crossfit.

[@JIANYM36]

rich pretty much a very coooool guy. def motivates me a whole lot to hit the gym.

[@rockytroll]

I just love this guy totally awesome

[@SoberSam]

When she called his dog crazy I bet he wanted to tell her to shutup

[@saraimolinar]

I love this guy!

[@TrayCaddyyy]

Anyone here own or have used a Rogue Bar?

[@mr.cambrady5335]

Love CrossFit!

[@seantube1718]

i love rich's excuse about hillary picking the dog's name. rich got home and was like, "bro do you even lift?"

[@88joshuajohnathan]

When I was going to a crossfit box for a year I did nothing but watch nearly 95% of the people around me half ass WOD's or quit, or never really give 100%. It's the person that gives a 100% crossfit doesn't instill shit in people. I've seen it first hand repeatedly. You already had it in you and now you have an outlet. That's it.

[@RyeRocking]

You have to respect this guy regardless of whether you like crossfit or not. Not only is he "Yolked", he seems like a pretty cool guy

[@stayedleopard4]

Respect for rich froning because even if he looks week( he really doesnt he has a beast body) he can manage to do alot of weight, condition, resistance, and he has an even body cause he has good legs and torso, hes a beast!!!

[@PVTBROOM]

Look up Greg Glassman who founded CrossFit over ten years ago and watch his video explaining how it happened.

[@lifesince1992]

why do you replay the same video over and over

[@seansulllivan]

I don't know how you can say SF don't do CrossFit when Josh Bridges, Navy SEAL finished second in 2011 at the CrossFit Games.

[@chrisdoyle4899]

Take a look at Garrett Fisher, he did a 470+ lbs back squat and a 5 minute mile in the same day!

[@CodyVella]

Do fran, film it and post it.

[@chochmah]

So what's his marathon PB?

[@lechoso72]

crossfit has been around for more than 10 years. maybe you heard about it only 3 years ago. very different

[@SJSharksSCC]

I like the Sandlot reference.

[@chrisdoyle4899]

What do you suggest for a better test of all round fitness then? Also why does the fact that cross fit includes snatches, muscle ups and handstand pushups, stop anyone from another sport getting involved?

[@PVTBROOM]

Us CrossFitters only care about what our body can do vs what it looks like. Sure we will get bigger and more cut just from the Strength and Conditioning but ultimately thats not what matters. I understand the body building perspective to be focused on body comp over ability. ALL CF workouts for sure preach mental toughness the shorter ones are usually just as brutal as the longer ones.

[@alphatrum]

the interviewer is fangirling him

[@blaquiste]

They train you to be the best you can be at a variety of things. The limit is what your body can be prepared for. This is functional fitness, not beach muscle, and not long term endurance exercise. Your goal is to be able to handle any physical situation like its nothing.

[@06livefast]

Why not show him working out too?

[@UncleLouis1]

It's all sarcasm! No anger

[@jcowen12]

I can't take Rich seriously when he's wearing that scam of a "titanium" necklace.

[@PVTBROOM]

I'm in the military and I do Powerlifting regularly. Body building is rather pointless for us. And I wouldnt call what we do combat conditioning. It's still CrossFit just certain workouts and movements are geared towards what I would see in combat.

[@darko.ristanovic]

Alpha.

[@Rayrockny]

I think if they make another DBZ movie they should ask Rich Froning to play Goku. I could see him powering up and playing that roll, or Gohan at the least.

[@born68]

Hey here's a really good idea. the next time I have an interview lets leave the friggin dog tied outside.

[@bentmercer]

better idea, let's leave you tied outside

[@mmaman88]

yes but at the same time strength training alone has made me better than the people around me , but i do strain alot more stuff doing simple shit haha :P

[@skarpskyttar]

Thats wrong. You cant compare it like that. I don't know about police and firemen, but I can for a fact say that military train crossfit as a part of training, its never about powerlifting or bodybuilding, they do combat conditioning.

[@1888jayjay]

I dont think that woman really grasps the size of CF. She say a lot if people across the states will be watching this!! Try across the world I'm in Scotland and really need to get my arse back into CrossFit Fife "afafp" great people great community great fun.

[@skarpskyttar]

also called combat conditioning. I never claimed who created what from what.

[@ethanwmotley]

or any length of time at all.

[@rshan379]

lol apparently you haven't had many conversations with SF...

[@MrSickSauce]

or to be the best at everything...

[@Tersagio]

You know..

[@TheWei95]

it doesn't even have to be a serious length of time.lol

[@TheActiveAssault]

exactly. it's why special forces, firemen, and police do it. rather be mediocre at everything then be good at 1 thing. that way you're more ready for the real world.

[@MrAutokillerable]

'google' SEAL fit, or how about you tell that to Dave Castro(former SEAL)..or even better go down to Crossfit forged, or Crossfit east village and talk to them about it.

[@emm589]

The only bad thing of Crossfit, are the high fees they charge in the boxes.....sucks to not be rich...guess I´ll have to stick to calisthenics and bars....which are free.....

[@armand0]

Crossfit game: do 10 burpees errtime rich throws the ball.

[@poonageproductions]

crossfit got their stuff from the military. not the other way around. crossfit only appeared in the last maybe 4 years.While the military has been around for centuries

[@JBeatty17]

These guys don't do any real tests of endurance. I doubt this guy could run a marathon in under 4 hours; he has way too much bulk. Show me the guy who can bench press 300+ lbs (STRENGTH), run a sub 3 hour marathon (ENDURANCE), and dunk a basketball (ATHLETICISM)-- all on the same day. THERE'S the world's greatest athlete.

[@jeffers1119]

Weak physique? Lmao....Rich is a beast. I bet you can't do a quarter of what he can do.

[@ButOneThingIsNeedful]

I love dogs, but in this case the dog about drove me crazy trying to listen to the interview.

[@06livefast]

Why U mad tho!!

[@06livefast]

U mad brah

[@ang5035]

something about his breathing...

[@mohamedemad-qn3yz]

0:35 seems like some lady pads commercial

[@UncleLouis1]

just youtube him.

[@TheActiveAssault]

that made little to no sense. You can't be mediocre at crossfit, everythings scaled. you're always mediocre because you're always improving also mediocre is completely relative you need to choose a better word

[@gforcebreakin]

street workout is better :)

[@kingofcha00]

if thats wat u think then go do some crossfit workouts for 30 minutes see if u can last i bet u cant bcus it requires mental toughness something u clearly dont have

[@DaJahno]

military, police and firemen also powerlift and bodybuild. You don't need crossfit to improve conditioning or become fit. If ur mediocre at crossfit, you'll be mediocre in the real world as well.

[@D3ADLYBU11ET]

This lady is really weird

[@sharongriffiths1654]

she wants the D

[@carlosleiva785]

D3ADLYBU11ET

[@TheAce22716]

The only part of that statement that made sense was the last sentence. Otherwise you only demonstrated that you have little to no understanding of crossfit, mental toughness, or special forces for that matter.

[@UncleLouis1]

soooo mad!

[@ffryan]

Froning seems like a nice guy but the arrogance of crossfit is astounding. Fittest person on the planet, no. Top crossfitter, yes.

[@ethanwmotley]

1000 crunches? who cares? i could do any isolation movement 1000 times a day too. isolation movements don't take that much out of you. you sit here and troll a bunch of crossfit videos but i bet you haven't even tried it. it would put you away. sit here and talk all you want. put up or shut up.

[@mmaman88]

so bascially crossfit trains you to NOT be the best at anything?

[@tennisplayer103]

Get over yourself. Go train how you want to train.

[@coltersthebest]

please, no one cares about the dog
