Guys and Gals...
I've been reading a bit on your upcoming event. I think this is absolutely amazing what you guys are doing. This is especially great, to me, because in November a fellow agent was killed in Iraq from an IED. He was from Pittsburgh and damn proud of it and a good friend of mine. Thanks to you all!

P.S., Dee, if you're reading this (which I KNOW you are), it's me. LOL

Just a heads up to all the folks going to the Arnold this year.

It is official. On Saturday, March 1, 2008 after The Cage shuts down and the expo closes, we'll be holding the 1st Annual Arnold Weekend ABC in association with the Columbus chapter of the Animal Barbell Club. We'll have the gym after hours, open exclusively for us and our event. Training first with a Q & A to follow.

Location: World Gym/Metro Fitness
9 E Long St, Columbus OH

Time: 8pm

Cost: Free to all Forvm/ABC members. Let em know at the front desk that you represent Animal by wearing your favorite Animal t-shirt and you're good to go.

HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.....................

Landlord - yeah girl, I'm calling you out. I had a "nugget" of a time training with you on Saturday....so you up for it again at this session?

I'll have to make sure I bring some protective pads with me to this session - HOUSE, I just wanted to let you know that while you were at the night show on Saturday, X and Hunter were trying to bust some sneak attacks on me. I figured Landlord and Trista needed a break so I wrestled down with those little guys for a bit. Round 2 at the Pitt session.

Shaff, me and bvv might make it out there. I will be one week out and know I have a previous engagement that day, but I am trying to get that as early as possible so i can still make the drive. I will let you know for sure as soon as I can. I would love to get some last minute tips from the House and Vinny, if he makes it out there.

As much as I want to be there, I'll miss the event by a week and one day. I'll be in the Burgh for the St. Patrick's Day weekend playing in a b-ball tourney, but I'm gone again on the 21st. I did want to know though if I could possibly catch up with someone while I'm in town to drop off the used musclemags and other things I have for the boys over in the sand box. I was going to ship em, but why do that when I'm gonna be there for a bit. If anyone can give me a meeting location I'd love to give what I got. And even though I won't be there in person, know that I'll be there in spirit, so rep it strong Steel City!!

i am not compeletly sure but if we send it to 3 different units....estimating that there are 5 to 6 troops that I know are into training and they can use the supplement related things and everything else can be distributed through the platoons

Sorry G that I didnt get back to you. Time got away from me. Thank you and Universal for stepping up and helping us out. Also thank you Shaffer for really getting the ball rolling on this lil project! I really hope that with all the items we collect that we can show the men and woman oversease that no matter where you are or what you are doing the Animal brothers and sisters will always be there. The House and I get so much from everyone that we feel it is our time to start giving back. We are very grateful for the life that we have and we dont take a minute of it for granted. So with that said we cant wait to see everyone in a few weeks!

At only 17 years old, he has a lot of potential in front of him.

James - he's a monster.....shocking to see him in person, moves crazy amts of weight...very bright future ahead of him!

My next couple of weekends are booked up with class assignments and getting ready for finals. If you're game (which you should be) bring the shoes you're gonna wear for your show along with either a suit or short looser shorts. Let's see where you're at and what you need help with.

I'm about 2 weeks into my training to gain....these workouts/my trainer are putting a beating on me but my body is finally starting to become acclimated.....looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow and Shaffer - I'm in the same boat as you, I'm not sure if I'm more excited to train or eat - the sushi menu is already calling my name.

Thanks and I'll see you all tomorrow!

BTW - Landlord has been kickin some ass at the gym lately - proud of you girl!!

First....it was good to see everyone again as well as meet the new members. Again, everything was so welcoming but when it was time to get down to business, everyone got it done.

Landlord - thanks for the new title of "BRA" it's all good girl - lol! By the way, what ever happened to those chicken nuggets - X was very protective of them!!

Dee....posing girl, everyday. Keep going through those 4 point presentation turns and your mandatory poses.......you want to flow very naturally on stage. If you have any questions, give me a call or shoot me a text right away - it's time to iron out any wrinkles and become comfortable. Sorry we beat ya up a little yesterday.

Sorry I wasn't able to stick around for dinner - that's my favorite part but my little guy was calling and was becoming impatient with my absence.

Roo poppin those lats.....great job with everything and good luck to you next weekend!

Joe - if I'm ever gonna be out the Champion Fitness way - I'll hit you up...you're not that far away and a change of pace is nice.

I was glad that this time I had a chance to talk to a lot more of you guys than I did last time - you all kick ass. Looking forward to seeing you again soon....and hey Shaff, no more forgetting to call Missy....you can't worry or stress her and the little one out!!!!!

time will be late morning... maybe 10am?

Vinny Galanti is competing in the NPC Masters Nationals on 7/18-19
and has graciously offered to participate in an ABC session on Sunday.

i have to double-check with my gym, but the location would be in the south hills of pittsburgh,
about 15 mins from where the show is being held.

So, who would be in for this?

if the 20th is the final date then let it be, i will do what i can to make it, just make sure this is the final date, so i can request off ASAP from work, thanks a lot again for the update, and can i bring my brother along? hes not the most experienced lifter, but it would be a good shock to reality for him.

Wow.. Looks like it might be a Pittsburgh weekend...lol I am going to try to hit up Vinny's prejudging Friday, the show Saturday and the ABC Sunday.... Heck, doesn't make a whole lotta sense coming home...lol

You know I'm in Joe... I'll talk with my guys from the gym and see if they are up for it too...

hey Pittsburgh (and surrounding areas) animals...
i'm trying to gauge interest in having an ABC session on Sunday 7/20.
time will be late morning... maybe 10am?

Layzie, i'm trying to see if there are enough people interested in doing this on such short notice...
this is the only date available as it's the day after Vinny's show (very cool of Vinny to offer, in my opinion!)
if we don't do it on 7/20 when Vinny is in town, we'll probably wait until after The House's 1st pro show so that he can be there.

feel free to bring your bro, that's what it's all about.
have him sign up on The Forvm so he gets a t-shirt!

07-09-08, 2:53 pm
checking with Vinny on the time...
as soon as i get the word, i will post up and make this official.

this gym is a good bit larger than the gym we had the other ABC's at...
they have a good bench area (3 flat, 2 incline, several adjustable),
a raised dl platform with 2 power cages,
three cable cross-overs, a good amount of Hammer Strength,
a supplement store, and a fitness room.

i figure that some of you guys (or gals) that are getting ready for shows
can hit up Vinny to do a seminar in there are give you guys posing advice and stuff?

Brutus_515
07-09-08, 3:48 pm
Id be down, Vinny went over my posing when i was all fat and nasty at the Arnold ABC...hopefully he will have something better to work with this time around. haha

so who is all interested in this thing?

Alright, ill make sure he signs up on the forvms before he comes, and can you maybe get a list of possible people coming or people that said they might come just to see what were looking at here?

Im still very interested, loved the last ABC session I went to, and would def make a 2 1/2 hour drive to train with the animals (serious)

Keep in touch about 11 days away.

Shaffer...I remember those days of eating nothing but fish...did that for 6 weeks straight - was so excited just to eat but when I popped the top of the tupperware and saw the fish AGAIN I just shook my head, sighed, and fed the hunger.

Spray butter and sodium free seasonings is the only way I was able to tolerate it after a certain period of time.

You're kickin some ass - keep it up....lookin forward to seeing the finished product in Sept.
