I trained with 5X CrossFit Games champion, Mat Fraser. He is seen by many as the most dominate athlete in the sport and the fittest man on earth.

I Survived Fittest Man On Earth's Brutal Daily Routine
Not even into CrossFit, but just watching any documentary on Matt winning any of the games he won is like watching a legit superhuman among men.
Yea alot of ppl dont get how crazy these guys really are, ive always said, most ppl who workout would struggle after 10 min of doing what they do in a competition, and these guys are able to keep that pace up for hours, mult days in a row,
I'm not into it either, and I'll say that they def have a crazy level of endurance and power, which is what makes an athlete elite imo
Where can I watch the documentary? 😊
Its the peds
@@FilleboooiiI think some are on CZcams!
Mat is awesome, love hanging out with that dude.
Keep it up Donut
Its donut!!
Not the usual Donut to see on Will's channel.
@@SkyeEyeSightings think it's more because or Mat
@@meduala usually it's Boston creams :s
Used to hate on CrossFit, then I did it and haven’t stopped in 5 years. Best shape and strongest I’ve ever been.
"Clean & Jerk not usually done in that order" - Will being Will!! I'm laughing so much
You're laughing at that? What are you? 12 years old?
@miserable man you are
@yes David, we are 12
@yes
I'm 11
I take my hat off to the effort you put into getting access to these athletes. Personally, I would love to see more of their meals, habits, and day in the life in general. Great video ❤
@DontReadMyProfilePicture.57I won’t
I don’t think these athletes like being analyzed that much in depth due to being judged-
Crossfit is just juicy people doing wrong exercises
@@bronson4574there’s probably some decent science behind cross fit. I haven’t looked
@@bronson4574 what do you mean by "juicy people"?
For people unaware of how impressive Mat is, this guy is a literal anomaly and is the goat of CrossFit. Super cool to see Will collab with such cool people.
Cant be with pull up form like that
@OmeganM "For people unaware of how impressive Mat is, this guy is a literal anomaly"
Well yes, but actually no
Froning is the goat.
Being the goat of a baby sport with inconsistent rules and poor event programming is pretty meaningless
@@marcorojas-vazquez6792 the rowing form aint much better tbh.
This is so unexpected! Mat Fraser is so underrated when it comes to lifting! He changed a lot damn
Not sure I would say Matt is underrated as a lifter. He was a powerlifter before finding CrossFit. Power lifting was one of the things that separated him from most of the CrossFit elite athletes.
@@chrisburton3571 weightlifter not powerlifter. Big difference
@@Bjorn_R From his bio: “Fraser has a background in Olympic weightlifting and was a junior national champion.” One of the functional areas of CrossFit is Olympic lifting…
@@chrisburton3571 Yes. Olympic weightlifting. Not powerlifting. Big difference.
@@orbbb24 Yes, it was a misspeak, but those responding to my initial post are missing the point. Matt came into CrossFit as an elite lifter. The original poster claimed that he was underrated. That is untrue, he has an extensive background.
He should have left the part where Mat was going to talk about how his wife made all his meals that allowed him to focus on training and being the best. If it wasn't for her he wouldn't have been able to make any of this happen. They have a cookbook. The frasers are amazing
Yes. I was thinking he should’ve left that part in too. Sammy is amazing. She played a big part in his successful career.
Y'all need to go cook something
@@Donte-mh4su😂😂
I can't believe he gets to workout with the GOAT! Mat Fraser is really lucky!! 😘

nah bro i‘m good, more into women you know
lame af
siu
Mat is for sure built different to be able to do these specialized workouts. It woulda kicked anyones ass lmao great stuff Will
He is on juice and peds.
@@KTK44any other average juice users still wouldnt do what he does
That's why there's only one 't' in his name... the second one got rabdo and fell off
@@KTK44 That's your excuse.
@@KTK44 I dare you to take all the juice and peds in the world and then win either the CrossFit championship or Mr. Olympia. Go do your 9 to 5 job and listen to your supervisor.
The way Will walks off while Mat is mid sentence and his voice just fades out has me rolling 😂 you were honestly keeping up with them throughout up until the very end!!! Crossfit really is a true test of one’s strengths (and weaknesses)
He was never keeping up, edited to seem that way but after the first rd of anything they did he didn’t complete a single workout. My bet on the rower after the 2nd rd was under 1000cal/hr after the 5th 800cal/hr or less. He did however back squat well. Working out wise though he is not in shape to do anything high intensity or athletic
@@gokeymasterflexhe is definitely specialized in strength, his cardio is not very good compared to high end athletes.
This workouts are soo grueling even for trained athletes no wonder he struggled yet he put his heart out.
Great video mate.
The amount of videos he puts out is insane, he is one of the most consistant long video youtubers rn
*Ok*
Here before he changes the thumbnail, like he always does.

Here
It's actually youtube that does that
Here
Heeeeere
The way you incorporate your sense of humor to your exercise/workouts are amazing. I always look forward to your uploads. Would love to see more of you and Dr. Mike!
2 observations: 1- Mat is a machine. That level of fitness is just unbelievable & 2- You just don’t realise how massive & strong Will is until you see him with “normal” sized people. Brilliant video as always
Mat is actually tiny at 5ft 6 as are most of the elite crossfitters. It's a sport that favours shorter people for sure
I always think the same thing about Rick bugenhagen. Some of those body builder boys are like intermediate powerlifters.
Will is fucking huge & strong and he seems to keep growing
@@shanehickey9022 Most of them are between 85 and 92 Kg. Above that no matter how strong you are the gymnastics will take a big hit due your bodyweight, and despite you usually can have 1-2 heavy lifting exercises in the Crossfit Games (like a deadlift or a clean ladder) most of the workouts are a mix between pure cardio and mid weight lifting, so endurance scores a lot more points than just being the strongest at static lifts. Although can be argued that Decathlon is equally valid to define "fittest on Earth" and the talent pool and money involved is much larger.
Truth
Thank you for not being afraid to be humbled by the sport
As a former CrossFitter, who still enjoys the occasional WOD, it was entertaining watching Will doing some of the movements.
Im shocked he doesnt clean
@@RT-qz5ci he does but only after the jerk
@@RT-qz5ci I thought the same initially, but unless you’re into Olympic lifting, it’s just not a lift people do. IMOH, after snatches, cleaning is the next difficult move to execute with proper form. Especially if you have tight wrists and elbows. Getting under the bar fast and low is also a challenge for people. The one thing Will has in his favor is the fact he is stronger AF. I had flashbacks to when I first started learning Olympic lifts.
@@chrisburton3571 same lol
Well done on pushing so hard. Most would have backed on way before. Also thank you for showing how hard some of it is. Filming stuff not going quite so well is such a positive message that we are not all good at everything, but that is a good thing. Back square was epic!!!!!!
For people unaware, mat is one of the most unique people out there. He is amazing at everything. Towards the beginning, he’s flaw was running, but he improved that making him indeed the best and imo the fittest in the world (that’s been recorded). Also he moved into coaching when he retired and some of the athletes he trains have become so great. As someone who loves fitness I think Will is very lucky to have had this experience with him
The people he trains have already made multiple games appearances before being trained by him.
Lucky?? Lucky I guess to meet him, but that was horrible coaching. He could have gotten way better coaching at any CF gym.
Will never fails to deliver
I love that Will is up for trying anything! Everyone in the comments is hating on CrossFit, but he showed how difficult the workouts can be. If you don’t like CrossFit, don’t do it and don’t watch the video. To each their own.
Disagree see a lot of love for cf lot of legitimate criticism of Matt’s “coaching” if we could call it that
@@hardlylast people criticize what they don't know. The idea that people are stuck to one way or no way at all tells you the limitations. You should train with him to know they why and the results rather than blow someone off without knowing anything at all. LOL
@@hardlylast I can see that I like Matt but after watching the clips of this on hillers channel he didn’t really show him what it’s like vs the buttery bros and Whitney whose another fitness influencer CrossFit video. I mean some people don’t know how to coach a very new person and that’s ok but just expecting will to be able to do a handstand is a bit much and I did kind of feel bad for him when he was like ya can’t laugh at me man
As a previous rower and now coxswain, I love the recognition of how tough rowing is, it's definitely not easy and having to train on the rowing machine most definitely induces anxiety knowing that the workout you're about to do is going to be painful, on top of knowing that your time counts. Also really great form on the rowing machine Will! Honestly very impressed
How in the hell you get that? All my coxswains were these tiny dudes like 5'5" who would cut you down to their level 😂.
Is rowing cardio or weightlifting?
@@Joeybsmoothit’s a power endurance sport so it’s cardio that requires muscle
Great to see you collab with a CrossFit legend! I think it's time more people in the fitness industry learn about what the method of crossfit is all about and that it's not all about bad form and getting injured like people make it seem.
We're fine thanks crossfit is a joke
By 35 this guys body will be finish it’s like being a complete nobody no legacy 0 in CrossFit there is no physical knowledge in crossfit....it’s a bunch of extreme dangerous moove to get badly injured be dead are end up in hospital ...that shit is dangerous and forget physical activities for the long run ....in numbers of years in CrossFit ... nobody know that CrossFit Mat Guy and nobody care ,but 2,23 millions of people know will tennyson and is intelligent way of training and techniques..
@@OrionDuCrosnot really it’s humbling
@@isaiahloya1713 yeah bro start jeopardizing form in your powerlifting meets and see how that goes
@@OrionDuCrosWhy would a Crossfitter go to a powerlifting meet? Your critique of CrossFit is just blind hatred.
Diverse fitness ability is always impressive! Respect🔥🏆
@2025UsaChannel too late I already did
Diverse anabolic steroids always work well too!
@@fauge7 silly goose
Two of my favorites! Great job Will. So fun to see you both together. :)
Whenever I’m depressed I just put your videos on and always cheers me up. Thank you so much your amazing Will!
I have so much respect for Will to go and do these as hard as he can and not having any experience with how much it requires. Awesome
Editing and videography keep getting better and better. Awesome video
Will, the amount of hard work and sheer effort you put into all these vids for us is incredible, keep doing what you do and know that you'll always be my favourite youtuber. (come on guys he deserves so many more subs)
This is by far my favourite video you have done! Great job taking that on, you should be proud
It’s good to see people finally appreciate the pain that can be achieved in an erg
I wasn't expecting that collab, Amazing!
That rowing workout is pure insanity. Well done Will.
Im honestly surprised you are this strong Will. I have struggled with knee issues which has tanked my leg power. So for you to have knee issues and still have this juice in the legs is really motivating.
It's called 'being young' :D
@@alexp601guy is still strong as shit
@@Yankee4ever2 Yeah 100%, Will is a beast. I'm just saying that knees and joints and stuff are easier for younger people. As Mat Fraser himself said, the older he gets the more he needs to warm up etc.
Best video I've seen all month!!!! Will has a new respect for Crossfit athletes.
HIIT cardio is no joke when done with the proper intensity. Kudos to you Will for pushing yourself on the workout.
Ive been waiting for this video since the insta post. It was better than expected haha love that you're comfortable getting uncomfortable!
Mat is a beast. You have the most incredible workout colabs. Love the content, never disappoints.
Being fit is a amorphous concept. One person thinks fit is strength, another endurance.
I used to lift a lot. Strength was my fitness measurement. Then i got into road cycling and it changed my whole concept. As soon as i understood how hard it is to maintain a certain wattage over a whole course AND charge through uphill sections, to me fit changed to endurance.
And not just endurance, but being able to maintain while putting out a lot of power. So its a measure of your VO2 Max and lactate thresholds.
Now i view Tour De France and pro cycling as some of the fittest people alive. I can appreciate what they do.
But Matt is a freak and deserves all of the accolades he has.
I agree. Personally I think Ross Edgley is the fittest man alive.
found Greg deucette
Or explosivity ... e.g. track sprinters
Many of the cyclists that do The tour de France are extremely unhealthy though and suffer from low bone density, lack of muscle mass resulting in emaciation, and lack the capacity to do basic ballistic movements or weightlifting. Many are underweight and suffer from eating disorders. Obviously they have great endurance and the ability to sustain high levels of pain. Similarly many Strongmen and Powerlifters are obese have little aerobic or endurance capacity and overconsume food to stay at high body mass. They suffer greatly for their sport but not sure how 'fit' they are. Those are very narrow definitions of fitness and instead I'd say they excel at their individual sport.
Crossfit defines fitness as increased work capacity across broad time and modal domains. Capacity is the ability to do real work, which is measurable using the basic terms of physics (mass, distance, and time). They use 10 physicals skills to judge fitness including cardio/endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, accuracy. For the general population being balanced in these areas is a good indicator of fitness rather than hyper-specialization required for a sport. This is an interesting foundational article on the matter from a Crossfit perspective: journal.crossfit.com/article/what-is-fitness. Don't get me wrong I love sport but I'm just attempting to make fitness a less amorphous concept.
@@zarbins As you as you don't watch the abomination called the Crossfit Games where all that goes out the window, they demonstrate they can hardly ride a bike, momentum is used to cheat on a lot of exercises (hand stand pushups anyone?) and form completely goes out of the window for "max reps" .... yeah ...
I've been waiting for this video since it was announced on IG that you did a workout with him.
I love how uncoordinated Will is - had me crying lol.
Strong af though 💪
I love all of the videos! you should do an kettlebell training day of some sort. Keep up the great work!
Can we acknowledge how amazing that shot was at 17:30 where Will is at his limit and spinning and heads outside with the horror strings playing only to have the camera pan to Matt there still talking like a devil on his shoulder? Amazing shot!! Like a film.
Yes! The squence from 8:20 is also legit. Nicely shows the psychosis of just keeping going while they all separate in their ways of coping and all that.
Exactly 💯
Fraser and Tennyson, love this so much
This was so good! Will, you never fail to deliver 👏
Loved it - That may be my favorite video you have done. Love seeing guys leave their comfort zone.
Im a yoga girlie addicted to Wills videos, watching him try to handstand gave me so much joy hahha its the only thing I can do that will cant (yet)
Hats off to you Will! Always trying everything once! 🎉
Mad respect to Will for going all out & not holding back in what must be one of the most gruelling workouts ever!
Love it! Would love to see will put through some CrossFit workouts like they do in the CrossFit games
Credit to you for doing these kind of workouts, not just a typical bodybuilder - and with Mat Fraser no less. The crossover we never knew we needed.
This was by far the best video yet!!! Love CrossFit
This is giving me the same vibe as when my friends from two very different friend groups meet and it’s kind of fun but also very awkward. 😂 Great vid and, to be clear, I love Will and have been a viewer since the Ollie days.
Bro I love how fearless you are.
These transitions are crazyyy love the editing
Love this so much man. Good job.
@2025UsaChannelyour not even doing it right 💀
And Will super impressed you went full send on the fan bike, and even pushed to point of puke - shows you really did it!
Mat is so legit, kind, stoked, and the consummate athlete. I’m a huge crossfit fan. Cool to see you train with him!
Just found your channel.. Love it, and love how genuine everything seems!
That was eye opening. I dont think I've ever seen you struggle like that during any lifting or exercise session. Do you plan to modify your training perform better during MetCon style workouts or are you sticking with bodybuildong protocols?
You already know this gone be a banger!
Will, you really inspire me to do better on my workout as always! Im so grateful to your efforts to give us these experiences! Wish you always the best!!!!!!
The collab I've been waiting for 🙌🏾🎉
best content its so good. Motivating work outs but every video is different. I learn a lot and enjoy it. Impressive work here.
A gut punch into another person’s world of volume is always a humility check and good for the soul!
Will is a fitness youtube goat. Great videos with awesome people. Love seeing videos like this. Also, he looks incredible!! Keep it up!
I love that you’re able to make content like this have fun and just be yourself and it’s so entertaining thank you Will!!!!
I have been waiting for this video ever since the instagram post about Will and Mat and now its finally here!!
Will you have gone absolutely massive!!!! You’ve put on so much muscle it’s insane! I’ve been watching you for at least 3 - 4 years! Check your old videos if you don’t believe me, I don’t think I’ve missed any 🤷🏼
Been a joy watching your vids and still to this day I await your content. Class buddy 💪🏼💪🏼
Right! Those legs have grown so much
Love this!! Mat is the GOAT….respect for going into his gym and trying!!
Dude the filming, the editing, the sound?? Top notch stuff man, kudos to whoever's doing them, I'm watching a movie rn.
Wow that’s the biggest compliment ever! Thank you (Editor)
Great vid! Are you okay after all that Will?
As a CrossFitter, those workouts and that volume is killer. Will stuck with it like a champ. This brought me back to my first workouts and all the pain that comes with pacing workouts aggressively. That rower workout is deadly and the echo Bike burpee workout would also leave me on the floor for 30min.
Wow to able to train with Mat Fraser would be an honor
The video I was wating for!🎉🎉🎉🎉 Now please do one with Tia Claire Toomey!
Yes!! She’s hilarious and it would be a great video!!!
Been waiting for this one. Knew it was gonna be great. What a workout. Hats off you Will !!!
Are you still planning to make a follow up ATG video? i was really looking forward to see how far you’ve come in that training!!
*Will coughing
“I’m gonna throw up”
*Mat smiling
“Yeah? You wanna poke your head outside?”
By FAR my favorite collab
As a CrossFitter I enjoyed this video so much! We get a lot of hate for the sport by people who sacrifice technique for time. If you focus on form and technique you’ll excel! Always fun to see people realize how hard it is! Great video!
I was looking for this comment and completely agree. The only people who hate on it are those who never tried it.
Dude Will is strong as fuck. Big ups to the guy. Love the content also. Been here since he wasn’t showing subs!!
Great work Will!! Even attempting handstands is a feat in itself! You dug deep bro it's the hardest part of crossfit IMO
Dude that was hard as shit for a beginner (and no beginners of course). No matter how strong you are, most of these movements were new to you, but you did great! The workouts can be easier though, its not either this or just walking for 10 minutes.
Crazy to see Matt after retirement. Man is so much leaner than he was when competing. Nice to see.
Leaner or cleaner 😂
@@scottmurray7283 😂😂
@@scottmurray7283 Both, first comes cleaner and then you get leaner.
Mat Fraser was my inspiration right when instagram was cool to look at through an iphone 4, such a GOAT
I'm not a CrossFitter, but I respect several parts of the training methodology. I felt the glory on that rowing set. Excellent gymspo.
You should go to Mayhem with Froning in TN next!
I wish I could hang out with Will for a day man he's hilarious. "Clean and jerk... Not usually done in that order"
😂 fucking dead
Great video. Awesome to see Will trying tough stuff.
The rowing bit... absolute perfection of what a crossfit session looks like, especially towards the end.
More collabs with crossfiters PLS!!
As a crossfiter myself I LOVE WATCHING THESE!
Best episode/video ever!!!!!! Matt is a beast and a role model & Will, you’re super!,, thank you for sharing this and I was hoping for this collaboration for a long time. Cheers and much love from Barbados 🇧🇧 guys 🤙🏽🤙🏽
my two favorite youtube content genres collabing here. love to see it!!!! mat's wife sammy is the absolute GOAT too. she is amazing. great video will 🙏
That workout was sick kudos for the effort to stay with em 👍🏻
Oppenheimer background music snuck in at the start I think
Damn Will, you're looking beastly in this video. Your shoulders and neck muscles look great when you're doing the squats. Keep up the good work!

@@jway9097 I can appreciate a muscled man even though I'm a lesbian lol
I've enjoyed watching Matt over the years. Dedicated, principled, great human. I started working out at 10, over 5 decades later still kicking it, learned a ton. Crossfit is a blast to watch but brutal on the body. Despite peds, anti-inflammatory practices, and thoughtful warm-ups, crossfit workouts compress your vertebrae over time, wears down your ligaments and tendons, and positions you strongly for diminished mobility in your 50's and beyond.
No disrespect to the crossfit movement. A tight culture with great energy, great people, who are living with integrity, all good. Crossfit is a recovery sport that unfortunately narrows the wonderful emotional and physical benefits of working out to a grind and recovery "sport".
Training should invigorate your life. Max lifts and PR's are unsustainable pursuits with huge lifelong detrimental impacts. Workouts in the 40% to 80% zone allow all physical and emotional benefits, minimizes lifelong injuries, leaves energy for daily and other fun / family activities, and safeguards your recovery and immune systems.
I was 180 lbs when I was in the Marine Corps, lifting, wrestling, boxing daily. Loved it all and absolutely loved the combative arts for 10 years. Went on to coach wrestling, awesome experience coaching and supporting young people. Intense, grind it out workouts were my bread and butter for decades. They came with huge costs. Crossfitters are under the impression that they can avoid the downside of body crunching, grind till you can't workouts with chemical support and thoughtful programming. Neither is true nor sustainable. Working out hard is not the challenge, never was. Balancing sustainable, enjoyable workout sessions with systemic recovery is the true challenge and mission for lifelong benefits. It's a huge mindset change, but I did it, and it's been life changing.
All my best to the crossfit community. I love watching all of you put it all on the line. Your dedication and effort is literally super human. Turns out, you pay a huge price for being superhuman, with lifelong downsides. Life is short and as you age you'll look back and re-evaluate the effects of body crunching crossfit workouts on your health. The athletic choices you make in your 20's and 30's will determine your vigor, strength, and mobility in your 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70's. Crushing PR's in your 30's may inhibit your ability to move with freedom in your 70's. Workout with wisdom. I want all crossfitters to fully enjoy the benefits of strength, mobility, and stamina that will allow every athlete great health today, and into their later decades.
I can appreciate how difficult it is as a body builder to try a new fitness discipline. Will being able to hang in there for as much of those workouts as he did is super impressive. Hats off.
That camera man knows how to get good coverage.
Can we do a video of Katie preparing healthy meals for Will from his cookbook for 24 hours or 48?
more of these videos, love the pain it brings
Watching this guy compete was so inspirational, just when you thought he had given it all, he would turned it up. A beast.
