How’s that for an attention grabbing headline?
The gymnastics start joins a long list of male and female athletes that have posed nude in celebration of the ultrafit human body.
ESPNw – Why pose for the Body Issue?
It’s a huge honor and a cool opportunity. I wanted to show that you don’t need to be 13 or 14 years old to be a gymnast. You can be older and still have good results.
When I first got the offer I was a little nervous. But then I thought, “You’ve worn a leotard in front of a billion people; this isn’t that different.” Plus, I work out really hard and I’m proud of my body.

This is good publicity for our sport, I feel.
Keith Russell brings gymnasts into his University Anatomy lectures to show real muscles. (They guys wear shorts, however.)
