Rich Froning is pretty popular and in decent shape. In case you didn't know, he's also sponsored by (affiliated with?) Advocare, a multilevel marketing supplement company which has a huge party/shingdig/propaganda get together every year.



Last year Rich Froning was there to do Grace with 225lbs (30 clean & jerks for time), which was pretty cool because they had a video of him doing that same workout from years ago so he was essentially competing against himself.



This year, they brought him back to do Isabel with 225 lbs (30 snatches for time), which he finished in 4:35. The last time he did Isabel with 225 he finished in 6:09. If you don't remember that video of Rich also ended up introducing the world to Mat Fraser by way of his own video of 225 Isabel. 

There are a lot of cool things about this. For one, this is probably the biggest and most excited crowd watching someone snatch outside of the CrossFit Games, and it's still an insane idea that people are so pumped to watch someone exercise really really quickly.

On top of that, Rich destroys the workout. It's as if he still needs to prove that he's the Boss. Sure he won four CrossFit Games in a row, and yea he somehow miracled his team to the top spot in the Affiliate Cup this year, but gosh darn it he can still throw down as an individual.

The funniest part of this is that for some reason Advocare uses the same music for Rich Froning's workouts two years in a row, like they bought the rights to that song a couple years ago. It's just hip hop-y enough to get people pumped up, anonymous enough to not really attract a lot of attention, and it has no lyrics so it fits into the whole "Jesus doesn't like cursing" thing.
