Froning has been quoted as saying he does not follow special, strict diets, nor does he take days off training as are customary in other CrossFit athletes. Instead, he prefers to listed to his body, and give it exactly what it needs. Froning also claims to train multiple times per day, without every taking a rest day, as he feels rest days are not beneficial to what he is trying to accomplish.

While attending Cookeville High School, he participated in many sports, including football, but his greatest achievements were accomplished in baseball. Froning became an all-district, all-regional second baseman during his high school years.
