Something Better Than Gymnastic Rings
I have a secret -- I've been training with something for a long time now that I havent mentioned to you before...
You see, for a long time now strength fans all over the world have been after us for gymnastics rings.
Tis with good reason, ring training has been a staple of physical training for decades.
It may interest you to hear that many of the great oldtime physical culturists had rings in their gyms for a specific reason.
Henry "Milo" Steninborn always had a pair of rings in his Orange Avenue gym down in Orland, Florida. So did Sig Klein in his Times Square physical culture
studio in New York.
And, of course, the great French Physcial Culturist Professor Desbonnet had rings in his gyms all over France at the turn of the century.
Of course, they all trained with rings much like a normal gymnast would -- and if you have seen the gymnasts in the Olympics, youi know exactly why.
But there was another reason, a series of exercises which were designed for a specific and very important purpose...
I will reveal the answer soon, but the reason I am bringing up gymnastic rings today is that I have discovered something even better. Something that will provide all the amazing development that gymnastic rings do -- only better.
Stay tuned for a major announcement to be made at 9:00 am on Wednesday, October 24th 2007...
Train hard,
