G.O.A.T

Beagle’s Bodybuilding Blog is more than just about bodybuilding; it is about being in the best shape of YOUR LIFE, physically. Not only looking muscular, but being strong when it comes to lifting weights, and having a great amount of cardiovascular endurance. If I were to narrow done one person, who is the G.O.A.T (greatest of all time) in muscular appearance, weight lifting, and endurance it is undoubtedly the 4 time “CrossFit” Games Winner, Rich Froning Jr.

Rich Froning Jr. from Crooksville, Tennessee is a professional CrossFit athlete that can be considered a legend when it comes to the CrossFit games. The CrossFit games started in 2007 and ever since it has been a competition between teams and individuals to see who is the “fittest in the world.” Each year there has been over 10 events and some of them include, long and short distance running, swimming, hundreds of pushups and pull ups, “burpees,” handstand walking, heavily weighted deadlifts, hang cleans, overhead squats, and much more. From the year 2011 until 2014, Rich Froning Jr. dominated in every category each year, and was pretty much unstoppable being the first athlete to take home 4 consecutive CrossFit Game titles.

Training for “the games” is something that is done year around, with little to no rest. It is hard to believe how strict and focused Froning can be during training, which may be part of the reason why he can’t be beat. The 40 men and women that compete at the CrossFit games sacrifice blood, sweat, tears, jobs, and time spent with their families to win it all, but with Froning competing you can kiss your chances goodbye. For Froning to go the games four years straight and win it all, he simply makes it look easy. There is a documentary titled, “Froning: The Fittest Man In History,” the title of that documentary in itself should explain why Rich Froning Jr. is the G.O.A.T. In fact, Froning hasn’t competed since his fourth title win just because of the mere fact that he has nothing else more to prove! (He competes with a team.) I challenge anyone to pick their favorite CrossFit athlete or anyone they think it more fit than Rich Froning Jr. and I guarantee and it’ll be laughable.
