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.
