Appoint Rich Froning Jr. as CEO of CrossFit

The Issue

Built by Athletes. Led by Athletes. Saved by Us.

 


Fifteen years ago, as I crossed the threshold of a humble garage gym, I stumbled onto a transformational journey. A quest that evolved from a mere workout to a lifestyle, making me healthier, more focused, and a better father. That is the power of CrossFit—an entity that instills discipline, resilience, and the true essence of showing up—not just in the gym, but in every realm of life.

However, it's been heartbreaking observing the organization dwindle due to poor management over recent years. CrossFit at its roots is potentially the most influential sport ever conceived, a lifeline that welcomed everyone seeking true transformation. Yet, it feels like the doors have gradually begun to close—making CrossFit less accessible, less real, less raw.

This petition is a clarion call to all world athletes: It's high time we reinstate the glory of CrossFit—an integral part of our athletic culture. I, along with many others, propose that the former and widely admired CrossFit athlete, Rich Froning Jr., should lead the CrossFit community as its CEO. His deep understanding of the sport and dedication to the community make him the ideal choice to reenergize the CrossFit ecosystem.

Let's reclaim the transformative power of CrossFit, making it the welcoming, accessible and raw sport it was designed to be. It's time to open up the doors again. It all starts with a single signature. Sign this petition to support Rich Froning Jr's appointment as CEO of CrossFit. Let's bring CrossFit back, stronger than ever.
