Mathew Fraser earned the title of Fittest Man on Earth at the 2016 Reebok CrossFit Games. The victory was three years in the making, after he took back-to-back second-place finishes in 2014 and 2015. In 2014, Fraser’s debut Games appearance, he earned the Rookie of the Year award for his efforts. Known for his hatred of second place, Fraser was unsatisfied with his consecutive silver finishes, and though he won the worldwide Open in 2015 and swept his region (EAST) with a dominate performance in 2016, it wasn’t until he stood atop the podium at the Games in 2016 that he showed signs of celebration. A former U.S. Olympic Weightlifting team hopeful, with a return from major back surgery in 2011, retired from his weightlifting career and has been a CrossFit athlete since 2012.

Such a legend!
ObesetoBeast you will be one day! You're helping too many people not to become a legend.
ObesetoBeast yeah man you've really inspired me. Down to 215 from 240 since last summer!
I'm 41 years old but his guy is my idol. Such an old head on young shoulders. I wish I had a friend like Mat Fraser to kick my ass and point me in the right direction in times of adversity.
Last time I missed a 225 jerk was always
Can Bodybuilding.com give titles or download link on the background themes used in this series , they are really cool.
What’s the song at 4:30????
#JUSTENJOYIT!!!!
repost
"Last time I missed a 225 jerk I was 13" wtf were u on at 13
Anto Francisco when i was 13 i was like 5'3 120 pounds, and i could probably do 15 pushups and 3 pullups in a row
Olympic weightlifters are strong
i think he means 225 pounds not kg
Still...what was he on at 13? That's crazy! Although, I do know an average 15 yr old, who hit a PR of 100kg and touched his first barbell just a year prior. There's something to be said of good coaching.
letitfly from downtown those are bodyweight exercises, impressive for your age but very different from doing a 225 lb clean and jerk
These are incredible but need to be waaaaaaay longer
Agreed
Bodybuilding.com thank you guys. Love any coverage of mat
Haha, someone did combine everythg into a one hour plus interview haha
That part where he talked about being a few years older than every one you're around and feeling like you've fell behind.. that hit home hard. Just turned 26, still no idea what I want to do.. Feel like I've wasted so much time spinning in circles, is this normal?
Jay same here bro. I feel lost but I will find my right path. You are not alone
Without getting to sociologically philosophical, it's much more normal today than it was for previous generations. That being said, it is nice to have something to devote time to, even if you end up changing it. I'm 28 and have applied myself to a few different things since high school already, and will probably change again. That's just me. Some people around me can choose something straight outta high school and stick with it for 60 years, but I'm not wired like that.
I was a late bloomer as well. I'll never forget when I was told, "Find something you're passionate about and make a career out of it." The journey will be filled with ups and downs, but keep the goal in mind and you will succeed. Best of luck.
Jay I agree. I've wasted 4 years of my life. The problem is I KNOW what I was born to do, I'm just lazy af. When I get my shit together, I will be on top of the world.
buddy, going on 7 years for my bachelor of science degree. Just keep chipping.
Mat Fraser, Brooke Ence and Sara Sigmundsdottir are my fav athletes! Awesome personalities, funny and humble people! keep up the good work.
MrPanSzymon mine is Mat Fraser, Brooke Ence, and Katrin Davidsdottir
Great content! I think the music in the video should be louder tough.
Trying to comment before Richey gets here! 😂 #TeamRichey #WEDONTQUIT

Crossfit
Varun Sahi says someone who has NEVER done Crossfit!
The part where Mat was in school and said “no friends, no girlfriend” summed up my experience of a year of grad school in Minnesota and I’m from Wisconsin. The CrossFit gym sometimes helped but still never really fit in. Was totally checked out a few weeks left of the spring semester and glad I didn’t finish school
Holy sh!t. Mat cleaned and Jerk 225 when he was 13?! I could barely bench press with the bar and 15 lbs plates. Weight lifting wasn't introduced to us until I was in middle school (7th grade). 😣
Love how real Mat is here. Humble beginnings and hard work made him the most fit man in the world.
does anyone know the name of that rap song in this vlog
#teamrichey is here!
Like for Jas!
Don't let the saccharine,brainwashed smiles fool you man-😐
You're absolutely correct to just sit in the corner and brood vs joining them in their lunacy-👍
Poor Mat Fraser! Why he didn't want to do Crossfit?
background music is too loud
he's not sweating but grunting alot in all of these "show" videos haha. 80kg isnt heavy for him but Its theatrical i get it :)
Mat Fraser BB collar?nice.. great interview...
who sings the song on this clip, hip hop song that mentions words youtube and victorious
Don't we all know that feeling of having wasted our time with Olympia and stuff?
I would do crossfit if I had the opportunity to. But I don't know if I'll ever have the opportunity to unfortunately.
Vita man pocketwood app and do it at home
Vita man Make your own opportunities 😊
Opportunity is always there, it’s the WILL that might not be there
no interest in parting... what a nark
we need crossfit programs or routines on the bodybuilding.com app !!!
Anyone has the song??!
who sings the song playing?
What is the song @4:20 ??
victorious tyrone briggs
thx a lot ;)
thanks (Y)
@@lostweeky - better than soundhound! thanks!
song at 4:20? great video btw
Alex Veres Tyrone Briggs - victorious
What's the song at 4:22 called?
Victorious by Tyrone Briggs
Hopefully tough thank you!
This is an inspirational video
Anyone know the name of the second song? The rap with the beat?
No one should be doing snatches or clean and jerks for "time."
Mike Luna thank you
Mike Luna Nope, I love doing crossfit but there is times and movements for speed in different things and that's why we do Olympic lifting separate on one day to just work on technique and strength. I know some workouts have them but I don't think it's a good idea so you slow it down and forget about time and just work in doing lifts. Atleast I look at it that way.
first
I agree Mat.. I don't wanna do crossfit either. I just wanna lift weights.
Penelope416 Hahaha forreal I prefer real pull-ups
They don't really do anything in crossfit but just snatch shit in the air, lol.
guess you didn't watch the video... leave some negativity elsewhere
G1LLAY_101 how is my comment spreading negativity?
+G1LLAY_101 "they don't really do anything in crossfit" ....ummm
Training should be for a sport. It shouldn't BE the sport.
I would do crossfit if I was gay too.
im gay then rofl and i bet i left bigger than you,
Hector Sanchez you also need to vap
LoL. But seriously, in order to succeed in crossfit you have to suck at pretty much every other sport you did. So you'll say, well I don't have much talent let me just punish myself...
MrBreakingbad and to troll cross fit you have to be shitty at every sport and then suck at cross fit,damn your life sucks troll.
sean rehse Former national waterpolo player and current strength&conditioning coach here. And I happen to enjoy my life. Unlike you I don't make shitty assumptions and know what I'm talking about.
So he talked about how he didn't want to compete and go on a cycle. So now that he competes and actually takes it seriously. Does he go on these said cycles ? 🤔
He's clearly talking about not wanting to do a training cycle. He said that he only went in a couple times per week, which isn't really conducive to a planned out training cycle.
Typically a weightlifting training cycle can be anywhere from 10-12 weeks. Depending on what type of lifter you are, they can be very taxing on the body.
Some people like to break bones and hurt muscles, crossfits for some people!
Mark Bell body builder.
Dipshit.
i have seen more meathead dudes in the globo gym throwing weights around in horrible form because they can't lift the actual weight if they just stood still. MRIs of their spines are horrific. Don't lay it all at Crossfit's feet.
