Froning vs Fraser vs Smith vs Bridges – 16.5 CrossFit Open

CrossFit Open Workout 16.5 is arguable one of the toughest workouts experienced throughout the Open. A true test of fitness, it’s the elite that make this workout look significantly easier than it should.

With the live announcement hosting Rich Froning Jnr, Mat Fraser and Ben Smith at the ranch in Aromas, California it was Fraser who came out victorious.

After the controversy surrounding Josh Bridges in 16.4, Bridges was out to prove a point in 16.5. Bridges is known to blitz through workouts with thrusters and burpees, due to his size and speed. After winning the previous workout in 14.5, he was odds on to take top honours again in 2016.
