Rich Fronig just won his 3rd straight Crossfit Games Championship. Not familiar with Fronig or the Crossfit Games? Mmm, you will be (said in a Yoda voice). The Crossfit Games combines the strength of a power lifter, the endurance of a marathon runner, and the agility and athleticism of a gymnast. So that makes Fronig the world's best athlete, right? Maybe. If you watch a Crossfit Games broadcast on ESPN, thoughts such as "Are these people being punished for something?" or "Does the winner get to live?" or "Please help them- that looks like it hurts" will cross (no pun) your mind. There is one word to describe these competitors- machines. So that makes Rich Fronig the Terminator, right? Possibly. So then what would you call Rich? For now, let's just go with all around badass.
