Thông tin về bộ phim này

Rich Froning Jr entered the 2014 CrossFit Games competition with three consecutive victories, a feat that no other athlete had accomplished. After finding CrossFit in 2009, Froning began a history-making career, finishing second at the CrossFit Games in 2010 and dominating the competition for the next four years. His four titles, five trips to the podium, 16 event wins, 35 top-five event finishes and 45 top-10 event finishes are all records, and he’s revered in the community. Froning’s athletic prowess has been under the microscope for five years, but there’s much more to the man from Tennessee than snatches and pull-ups. In this in-depth documentary by Heber Cannon, take a look into the life and childhood of the fittest man in history, follow his quest to a fourth straight CrossFit Games championship, and see him as a son, a husband and a new father.

This film is a thinly-veiled advert for CrossFit. That's not to say it's bad. It is entertaining however the narrative is weak. Why did Froning take up CrossFit? What did he do before? Froning himself comes across as a driven competitor but one doesn't get the sense of an inner life... an okay film for fitness fans but the film falls of short of greatness.

Don't waste your time. You learn almost nothing of value about his life before crossfire. The pacing and composition made it very hard to follow and overall it was just badly conceived.

Great documentary on a guy who became the face of crossfit. Not only is he a beast who's workout schemes are mind blowing, but he's also an amazing down to earth person. A great watch for anyone that does crossfit.
