Froning qualified for the 2010 Southeast Regional competition through the Sectional Qualifiers, a precursor to the online-based Open.

Froning won the Regional, thereby qualifying for the fourth CrossFit Games at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.

At the 2010 Games, Froning earned five top 5 finishes including two event wins, and never dropped below 19th.

He was leading heading into the final event, however the rope climb portion of the final event exposed "a chink in his armor" in terms of technique.

Froning did not use his legs and feet to wrap round the rope, and attempted the rope climbs only using his arms.

Fatigued, Froning fell from the rope multiple times.

The 2010 Games podium had Holmberg in first, Froning in second, and Chris Spealler in third.

2011

He became the first person to win the CrossFit Games title of "Fittest Man on Earth" four times with his first-place finish in the 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 CrossFit Games.

In 2011, Froning had a poor start at the Games in the Beach event that featured the first ever ocean swim, but performed consistently well in most of the other events, winning three events, including the event that featured rope-climbing, and placed second in three further events.

He topped the leaderboard with nearly a hundred points better than second place Josh Bridges, thereby winning his first CrossFit Games title.

Froning followed the 2011 Games win by winning every stage of the 2012-2014 Games season including the worldwide Open, Regionals, and the Games.

Both Froning and the winner of the women's competition Annie Thorisdottir were the first athletes to win the CrossFit Games twice.

2013

In 2013, Froning again started poorly in the swimming event, finishing in 30th place.
