Physical Strength Can Only Take You So Far

Reigning CrossFit World Champion Rich Froning is “The Fittest Man on Earth.” He’s fast. He’s strong. And he’s incredibly disciplined.

And it is the precise balance of all three that makes Rich Froning a champion.

In First, readers come alongside Rich as he trains for and competes in back-to-back-to-back CrossFit World Championships. Along the way, Rich shares invaluable training tips, motivational techniques, and spiritual insights that, in keeping with the CrossFit philosophy, will prepare you to respond to any real-life physical, mental and spiritual challenge.

About the Author:

Rich Froning is a natural born athlete. In 2010, Rich made his mark in the CrossFit community with a dramatic second-place finish at the 2010 CrossFit Games. In 2011, Rich took first place in the CrossFit Games, earning him the title "Fittest Man on Earth." In 2012 Rich successfully defended his title, becoming the first man ever to win the Games twice and cementing his place as the top CrossFit athlete in the world.

Easy Read, Repetitive
It is a quick read with very little substance to motivate or inspire or guide athletes. As well, I found it to be repetitive with the sharing of some of his personal experiences or his faith. As a non-believer who respects religions, this was a bit too much and I had to skip pages. In the end, I was happy my read was over and that it was short. Rich is a good man and fantastic athlete, and I believe that a good writer should write Rich's life story one day.

refreshing and honest
It was an easy read. It was nice to hear about his personal doubts and how he works around them. I also enjoyed reading of his relationship with God and his family.
