Hi,
My name is Tony Sunzeri. I am a 33 year old sports anchor on television in South Lake Tahoe, CA. Two months ago I did a story about CrossFit for a show called Tahoe Today (
) and signed up immediately. What I enjoy the most is the competitive aspect and the still rings. Recently I got my first muscle up, and it felt so good. I went home, and googled "How to make your own gymnastic rings". I found a video on youtube and proceeded to "bake" my own pvc rings. I hung them on a tree in the back yard with some rope and off I went. Gymnasticbodies.com has been the best resource I have found on the internet, and I enjoy reading posts from gymnasts with years and years of experience and newbies such as myself. The gymnasts at the elite level get respect from me in a whole new way (Jon Horton is a beast!, and I'm trying to get him on my show before London 2012). Anyway, today is the first opportunity to say hello and any advice for a new gymnast on the still rings would be helpful. I look forward to being a part of your community. Take care, and thanks in advance for putting up with my naive questions about the fantastic sport of gymnastics.
Tony
