About Nick Vujnovich
Expertise
I can answer most questions in detail but I am best used for "Forward" positions especially the "tight 5" and the scrum. I am a front row guy myself. I have good knowledge of game strategy and tactics. I cannot give detailed help with kicking myself but I can suggest general training applications and point you towards good resources. I am a New Zealander living in Southern California, USA.
With regard to fitness or weight training: please understand that you are best going to a gym and getting first hand consultation from a qualified trainer. The risk of injury is too great for me to simply give you a program without being able to analyze your fitness or capabilities in person.
I really suggest going through my previously answered questions as well. The most common repeat questions refer to tackling.

Subject: I´m too old
Question
Hello , I´m 35 years old , an I want to start too play rugby, am i too old ?
Answer
Nope. It does depend on your conditioning and the level of play in the team you pick but I know guys your age and older who pick it up.
Try to find a team in a lower grade like 2nd or 3rd division or a club that has a "training" team for beginners.
I suggest "Rugby For Dummies" as a great starter on the basics.
Feel free to ask me any questions
