"I was hoping to hit 265 today" 

[guielidess]

the stabilisation work done for the 315 was just phenomenal... so strong!!!

[JM-fett]

This guy is so lovable! Seems like such a fun guy and super friendly.

[forgemindbodysoul]

I love his facial expression at the bottom of the squat when he catches 315.

I'm surprised how many people are screaming "cycle" and roids/peds. Matt came from an olympic lifting background and if any of you are familiar or keep up to date on national/international olympic weightlifting you'd know that this lift is easily attainable clean (as in no PEDs). US lifters are tested constantly in and out of meets and we have multiple guys weighing around what Matt weighs here who snatch the same or more. The idea that Matt can hit this just makes sense. He's a strong guy with an olympic lifting background.

Fraser did train at the OTC for weightlifting in the past so I can't say I'm entirely surprised by the strength numbers, but to have the work capacity to back that up is pretty amazing.

He doesn't tie his shoes until he starts getting serious

[EL-Geovanni]

Snatching goals.
Not riding the bar on the way down but actually beating it to the catch position!

[samrulz]

this guy came out of nowhere and he's tearing shit up.. unreal 

[wakkaboi]

I watched many CrossFit videos, for some reason this 6 year old video makes me want to start doing crossfit now, insane weight in such an awkward hold and he just stands while holding the bar over his head. Impressive stuff.

2018 crossfit games winner. 3rd one already. Incredible mat.

[hobgoblin]

You don't just hit the gym thinking you're going to do 265 and bust out 315.

[askVinSPENCER]

HQ is going to start trying to make Fraser one of the faces of crossfit since froning and Khalipa are done. He deserves it this guys a beast

[papageorgio]

Regardless if he is taking PED's, most of you who are criticizing him of taking PED's probably idolize Weightlifters from the European countries. (If you know anything about weightlifting then you know what im talking about). Regardless, when theres alot of money on the line for a fitness sport PED's will be used. It does not take away the fact that these athletes work there asses off.

[seankimsey]

MarsMedia love all your and hebers vids dude. Its gotta be awesome to be around such incredible athletes and document their training.

[navsquid]

Why do the jump rope handles on the wall in the background spell "WAX"?

[madmaxracing]

and people say crossfitters are weak and can't gain muscle, would like to see them snatch 300lb

[Svendeboer]

PR '' yeah''
was that a PR '' yeah''
lifetime PR? '' yeah''
So thats your new PR '' well yeah''

[charliemayers]

Wow these comments are so old. Im
Here after the pandemic.

[silverfrak]

It’s still impressive all theses years later.
