The LEGACY Lives On

- A legacy is something that is built with great dedication, something that lives on and is carried into the future. A legacy can take many forms, values, ethics, character and a life led that sets an example for those to come.
In this special video, we’ve sat down with those who have been there from the beginning, like HWPO CEO Matt O’Keefe and Coaching Director Jake Marconi, friends turned HWPO athletes like Katrin Davíðsdóttir, and those carrying on the legacy as new faces of the sport, like Jayson Hopper.
The Legacy of 5x CrossFit Games Champion Mat Fraser very much lives on. Forged by relentless hard work and dedication - from a basement gym, to the podium, to a platform and community that impacts the lives of thousands of athletes globally today.
HWPO Training was built off the mantras that created the Mat Fraser legacy: If I SHOW UP today and WORK HARD, I can BE PROUD for years to come knowing that HARD WORK does PAY OFF. Be proud of the legacy you leave behind.

Come on ppl.. Matt's legacy is layered ( the athlete- unmatched, the coach - to create more champions through the HWPO brand but win or lose u can see the progression and marked difference in the athletes he prepares, the businessman - bringing this brand to the world for all of us, the friend, the future mini mat, I could go on.
The best part about all of this is that u dont have to celebrate someone's legacy and all that they did when they are dead..the best time to celebrate is in the now, hence the video.
That is what this video is about EMBRACING AND APPRECIATING THE NOW.
Big congrats to Mat and his day ones... best of luck to jason and katherine and to be honest whatever position they place it really doesnt matter because only a blind man cant see they are so improved. Keep enjoying the journey
To Matt and super Sammy - stay blessed. I wish I could meet you all some day. True legends
What a fantastic video!! Super proud to be part of the HWPO family.
I'm a 50yrs.old man from Los Fresnos Tx. and Matt Fraser gives me the DRIVE to work out on crossfit...HWPO 🤠😎
Kat's looking unreal, can't wait to see what she does at the Games this year 🔥
Speaking of Kat, wish she had a banner hanging in the facility as a two-time champion
@@thomasfaust9703 she wasn't HWPO when she won
@@bonawah876 yes, Ben Bergeron.
Great video! Wow! What I find incredible is that you can hear and see Matt, looking and listening to the people he works with. They are transformed, wether they are newcomers or veterans. That's powerful. That's legacy.
5:32 “For anyone around me to be happy, I need to be happy first.” wise words
Great watch and thank you for everything you do. You are a big inspiration to everyone. You inspired me a lot. Thank you for your channel Mat. Keep up the hard work!!
"I try to be the person that I didn't have when going through a tough time" - wow that was a hell of a quote. After three ACLs that ended my football career.. I can relate to this SO much.
Matt, you think you were tired before? Wait till your little girl comes along 😂 what a feeling being a Dad to a little girl is. Will be your greatest achievement! All the best to you and Sammy. Alex 🇬🇧
Past tense, the way everyone comes to talk, the music. This video made me feel sad lol. Thank God he’s okay!
Necesitaba este video en mi vida en este preciso momento, por qué muchas veces la disciplina puede lograr lo que la motivación no, si mat logro estar en ese podio 5 veces, muchas cosas como atleta se pueden lograr, gracias Mat...
for a moment there, I suspected Mat to tear up, drunk by his own greatness 😀 gosh, this is kitschy.
This video feels like a eulogy.
Agreed.
I'm 7 minutes in and I don't know why this video exists. It seemed so pointless I came to the comments before finishing, hoping someone would explain what this is even about.
@@davidwendt4857 I feel that way about a lot of the HWPO content whether it be RUclips or instagram posts. So much of it seems like it was staged or forced as if it's gone through different PR and HR people and you are left to wonder what is the point.
And yet I still consume it all.
I think it’s more about the ones around him able to give him his flowers as a legend of the sport. You know not wait till tragedies in life happen to talk about how amazing he was a competitor, and how amazing he is as a coach.
So happy for you guys ;) Oh Katrin is such a badass - looking forward to seeing her and amazing Annie next week!!! Ain't gonna lie...I miss Mal :(
Great video. Mat is a GREAT GUY!
Great watch. THANKS MAT👏
CHAMP❗️❗️❗️🏆
Great Athlete and Coach❗️🏋🏻
Damn, Katrin is looking strong!
As I’m watching this, I’m getting the feeling it’s a video that HWPO put together in case Mat passed away and they accidentally uploaded it, kind of like how major news outlets have videos ready for celebrities or public figures they think may possibly pass away soon…
Is it the music choice or all the past tense?
@@veronicazimmerman3294I think it's because it doesn't seem to have a point, other than to eulogize Mat. Combined with the tone...music...ponderous retelling of history.
@@veronicazimmerman3294 Music I think. If they use more up-tempo/louder music (e.g. the kind you get in CrossFit documentaries) it wouldn't sound like an eulogy.
It is weird they’re reliving his past (and he’s only 33!) just days before the games. Why is this hwpo’s choice of content when they have so much to celebrate in the present.
Awesome…fan of Matt sinds 2014! Now it is your time to shine Jay
Dude, Kathrin is looking like a beast!! She been putting in that work
Jesus christ Katrin look jacked🤩
I thought Matt passed away when I saw the title, thank god this is not the case. Phew !!!
Epic piece
The old mat training videos..😅🔥
For big lift Saturday, I feel like it’s going to be standing clean & strict shoulder press…. It’s long overdue !
Really enjoyed this
Where is Amanda Barnhart?
Or Mal
@josephgambill3754.
Mal’s pregnant.
Matt should do the masters one year
He would literally win every event it would be fun to watch but ultimately he knows this and I don’t think he wants that kind of attention
Thanks Mat
True warrior
Why does the video feel like Mat died lol
Is Amanda Barnhart still with HWPO?
💪💪💪
Talk about legacy when you’re done-done, not when you’ve just changed roles.
When you’re talking about what someone did in a previous job / role, don’t make it sound like they’ve just died.
Make yourself proud
This is …. Interesting
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I gotta ask, did Mat have a coach during his crossfit career? or was everything self taught?
He first started being coached by Ben Bergeron, then spent some time self taught, then he worked with Shane Orr.
@@michaelbean4878 thanks for the response 👌
Ben Bergeron preferred athletes to win Spirit of the Games rather than winning the games 😂
HWPO the GOAT
Did Matt pass away?
Did Mat pass away?
What makes you say that?
@@WayneGlass1the video feels like he died
I almost googled it after watching 7 minutes...Honestly, what is this thing?
blesssssssss ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Ngl, this kinda sounds like people remembering him after he died
Champ.
Did Mat die?
nope, I'm still here

Like y'all but this is corny. At least take the music out.
You retired too early
Yeah 😩
Everything about this video and everything you do speaks to me and inspires me. “No excuses”, “make yourself proud”, “hard work pays off” it all hits home. It makes me want to become the best athlete I can, to be happy with my results, to give it my all, to work as hard as I can to achieve my dream. Thank you all that you do and for creating an amazing community.
Mat looks like 2 of him could climb into the old Mat.
Ouch
😂 agreed
He looks better for it.
Super excited to watch Jayson. Think he can do some damage.
Hoping this is a great games for Hopper.
Maybe Mat understands how Ben felt when he said he was super proud of dude getting the spirit or the games award and didn’t mention Mat winning instead.
I literally had this thought today. Maybe Mat is now seeing on the other side how important the small (and big) things are other than winning.
Watching all these Athletes the past few years, I am over the moon about HWPO. And it is fcking Crazy how Mat mightve stepped off the competition floor but he's still there in the same fashion he competed in. And seeing Sammy and O'Keefe be there with him still? Is fantastic. I can't believe we get to be here for all of this!!
Mat Fraser is a great guy. This is a great video, and I love it. As Nubian Queen put it best in the comments below me, celebrate people while they are here. That’s a legacy too. 😊👊🏾🏋🏾♂️🦍
Loved it all! Especially Jake talking about the impression of Matt has on every type of athlete.
Where are Mal and Amanda?
Awesome video and love the programs available, couldn’t ask for better
Fantastic video 👌
Actualy experience is when you lose so you can learn, but if you don’t lose, you will never know what went wrong to teach others what they shouldn’t do.
So humble to be talking about your legacy at 33 years old.
katrin looking juiced up like a bull!! you go girl.
its been 2 years.
Where to get that t-shirt?!
where is malorie o brien ???
Pregnant

Matt is great and you cannot take anything away from him. So sad he is not as good as Rich. ( Just Kidding!)

There will not be an other "Matt Fraser' in the games.
