A Good Watch

Below is a video that was recently put out by Andrew Hiller. For those who don’t know, Hiller came on the scene publicly a couple years ago for calling out the standards that some Games athletes were performing. We agree with a lot of the things he has to say, not all, but a lot.

Hiller has recently been posting more videos of him spending time with some Games athletes, interviewing them, etc. This most recent one is with the goat, Rich Froning.

It’s a great watch, I highly recommend it, however it is on the longer side. There is a part where Hiller is talking to Saxon Panchik and Saxon talks about the OG athletes like Rich and his brother Scott, and how they really believe in and understand the methodology and how a lot of newer athletes coming into CrossFit, don’t. They don’t really understand it, a lot don’t even go to an affiliate, etc. It was an interesting listen.

Give it a watch for yourself. If you don’t know who Rich Froning is, he is the goat of CrossFit. The greatest of all time. Don’t come at me that Fraser won 5x to Rich’s 4x. Rich has 10 gold medals from the CrossFit Games. Rich got into the sport of CrossFit before there was really any money to be made and won the Games from 2011 to 2014. Then went team and won another 6 golds with his team. But aside from that, Rich was Seminar Staff ( a CF Red Shirt ), he’s a coach, and an affiliate owner. From the way he moves, to the way he carries himself, Rich has always been one of the best ambassadors for CrossFit as a whole, from the sport side to the fitness side.
