OsteoStrong® is a revolutionary approach to quickly and painlessly achieve extraordinary gains in bone density and musculoskeletal strength.

Originally developed as a safe, natural, and effective program for the 52 million Americans suffering from osteoporosis, athletes are now discovering OsteoStrong® helps them biohack their way to peak performance.

OsteoStrong’s® robot-aided growth trigger devices enable users to activate “osteogenesis,” a natural adaptive response whereby bone tissue is regenerated when the skeleton undergoes sufficient compression loading. The dose level of compression that occurs with running, jumping or

LIFESTYLE LETTER

Home Sweet Home “HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS.” It’s a common phrase meaning that our homes are a central place in our lives—where we rest our heads, nourish our bodies and make fond memories with loved ones. It’s the epicenter of our worlds, where we start and end each day, and where we keep our most prized possessions.

THE ROAD TO RICH’S

(CON TI N U ED)

“[Having Lakelyn] was a complete 180, and now every time I have a kid it switches in a different direction—in a good direction,” he continues. “My mindset 100 percent switched when we had Lakelyn. And when we had Trice. And then a third time when we had Violet—in good directions. It’s made me more well-rounded. Balance is hard; to be the best at anything, you can’t really be balanced. Now I’m trying to be the best father and husband I can be. It’s a good challenge; it’s fun.”

Rich found some of that seemingly unattainable balance through his transition to team competitions, which have allowed him more of an opportunity to think about training while he’s training and to not think about training while he isn’t.

“I get to be present in my life,” he says. “[In individual], even when I was doing other things, I was still thinking about what I needed to do, what I was missing out on.

“Competing as an individual for me, I got burnt out,” he continues. “It’s been fun the last couple of years to be able to compete with a team. You push harder when you know somebody else is counting on you, and seeing how hard they push and what they sacrifice makes you want to do the same for them.”

Outside of the gym, Rich now spends much of his time using his experience as a CrossFit champion and exercise science degree from Tennessee Tech creating online programming for his gym, CrossFit Mayhem, which is located on Rich Froning Way.

“Winning championships is great, but it’s like the next year somebody else wins...I enjoyed that, but I don’t want that to be what defines me. I want to be known as a good husband, a good father.”

Among them are Mayhem Compete, a program for those beginning to take competition seriously or who want to take their fitness to the next level; Mayhem Masters, a program for competitive athletes ages 35-70; What’s Rich Doing, a program offering exactly what Rich is doing every day; Mayhem 60, a complete 60-minute workout for anyone with a garage gym; and M30, a short 30-minute workout designed for someone who travels or wants to work out at home with no access to equipment.

Looking toward the future, Rich is in pursuit of moving forward.

“Winning championships is great, but it’s like the next year somebody else wins so it’s always different,” Rich says. “I enjoyed that, but I don’t want that to be what defines me. I want to be known as a good husband, a good father.

Moving forward [is important] for sure—not getting caught up in one thing that’s stuck—you’ve got to always be thinking about what’s next and what [you] need to do to grow as a person.”

THIS BRICK HOME OVERLOOKING HOLE 5 OF STARMOUNT FOREST COUNTRY CLUB’S GOLF COURSE WAS DESIGNED AND BUILT BY CUSTOM BUILDER BEA MELTON IN 1978. Having only two previous owners, the home underwent a complete renovation in 2014, and no room was left untouched. The unique circular driveway that cradles the front of the home is unique to this neighborhood.

The main floor of the home has 9-foot ceilings, with a 10-foot ceiling in the living room and 8-foot ceilings on the second floor. Everywhere you look, there are gorgeous views of the backyard and Starmount Country Club golf course. The current owners refinished the hardwood floors throughout the first floor and replaced carpet with hardwood flooring in the living room and master bedroom. The tiles in the entrance area, front powder room and dining room are handmade and original to the home.

Greensboro Lifestyle | March 2019

PLANTING TIPS + Succulents don’t like wet roots, so when choosing a container, make sure that it has adequate draining. If there isn’t a natural draining hole, drill several small holes in the bottom. + To ensure your soil drains easily and the plants’ roots aren’t too wet, you can use a special soil mix for succulents or mix potting soil and sand together to make it more porous. + Mix and match succulents for an artful display. They don’t mind being close together, and finishing off with aquarium rocks, moss or other decorative material will give it a finished look.

LOCAL’S CHOICE

THE PERFECT SNACK ROSEMARY NUTS ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY RACHEL ROTH

INGREDIENTS 1 pound unsalted mixed nuts 1 tablespoon melted butter 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup 2 tablespoons and 1 teaspoon fresh chopped rosemary, divided 1 tablespoon brown sugar ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper 2 teaspoons flaky sea salt, plus more to taste

INSTRUCTIONS 1. Preheat oven to 350 F. In a large bowl, toss mixed nuts with melted butter and maple syrup. Add 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary, dark brown sugar, cayenne pepper and 2 teaspoons flaky sea salt, mixing until the nuts are well coated with the flavorings. Spread nuts out onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake until glazed and golden, about 1820 minutes, stirring twice during the cooking process.

2. As soon as the nuts come out of the oven, season with an additional 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary, and flaky sea salt to taste (I added an additional 3/4 teaspoon). Serve warm immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to five days.
