  • Mat Fraser, a former Olympic weightlifter and the only athlete to take first place in the CrossFit Games for five consecutive years gives Black Rifle Coffee Co.'s Evan Hafer an inside look at what kind of punishing physical training it took to be at the top of his game for so long (including ingesting 10,000 calories a day) and what life is like after retiring from competition as he continues to build his company, HWPO Training (Hard Work Pays Off).

      @@ZachDylik Yes, it's true.
      He came second in 2014 in his debut year at the CrossFit Games against the best elite athlete at the time. And he came second again in 2015 against the best elite athlete at the time.
      Fraser crossed paths with Froning at the height of Froning's career.
      In his debut year, Froning came second against an athlete I bet you've never heard of and who has virtually no competitive history.
      Froning decided to compete in teams at a time when winning the individual title was becoming increasingly difficult with the emergence of a promising and super consistent youngster.
      The two are still the greatest athletes in the sport, just at different times.

    i wish this video was out before i got out the Marine Corps. i had no idea what i was going to do or even what i wanted to do. i sat around wasting life for 4-5 months before my wife kicked my ass into makign me do something. so i started school just to do something...i ended up dropping out of college for a third time and start working as a contractor in the military. havent looked back. but knowing that i could have started so much longer ago makes me realize i missed that possible promotion, possible life changing event or move.

    The "Health Dashboard" sound great but how would you account for something simple like dehydration everyday in all weather conditions and in all time zones 24/7 as someone progresses through fitness and age? There's countless questions like this that an app would have to address so how interested in how that can work?

      That's the legacy shirt. They put out a short order a few months ago to members and then the public but once they sell out they don't continue to sell items until a new run comes out. They sell shirts very selectively through the year and usually its only to members. You'd have to sign up for their email subscription to find out if they do another run.
