Frolov qualified for the2008 Summer OlympicsinBeijing,along with his teammate and defending championAndrey Moiseev,and competed in themen's event.During the competition, Frolov struggled in the early segments, with slightly fair scores inpistol shootingand a one-touchépéefencing, but he was managed to perform consistently in the final rounds, including his second-place finish for the 3 km cross-country running. Frolov's best result in the last round was insufficiently enough to reach the top position, and he eventually finished in twentieth place, while Moiseev successfully defending his Olympic title.

Despite his disappointing performance at the Olympics, Frolov eventually won a team gold medal at the2011 World Modern Pentathlon ChampionshipsinMoscow,and added another winning streak at the UIPM World Cup circuits inChengdu, China,and inCharlotte, North Carolina,in the United States.
