Just How Good Of A Weightlifter Is Rich Froning?

Rich Froning isn't a weightlifter; he's a CrossFitter. But just how good would he be if he were a weightlifter? In the CrossFit Liftoff event, Rich weighed in at around 195 lbs, snatched 306 lbs, and clean-and-jerked 375 lbs. If he had competed at the 2015 American Open just a few weeks after the Liftoff, he would have finished fifth in the 94kg class, weighing in around 89kg and finishing with a 310kg total.
