I`m in Berkshire, I`ll be looking to hold a meet at Golds Gym (there are members there that will attend) in Camberley Surrey after chritmas but before the New Year if anyone is up for that, food at Nandos or Chiquittos after, just down the road from the gym!

Other than the Xmas bash I`ll be looking for venues to hit for the New Year, suggestions please!

Yeah U-REP I`ve had a few conversations about this mate, I`m actually in Cyprus for my daughters wedding from 16th to 26th so miss the whole thing along with all that will be going including some of our foreign brothers.

England Animals, if you can make it then go as there will be some good stuff here along with some surprises.

An ABC would be great up there after this event, wish I was in the UK around this time.

Thirdeye, you could arrange this if you are up for it and around mate, Temple Gym is too small though but there are others in the area, thoughts mate? Anyone else be up for that?

Understood, S...

Thirdeye/Elite, are there other gyms that could work? I believe Temple Gym can hold about 20 or so Animals, but if there are more coming, we may need a bigger gym...

Sweet... Corporate will try to work something at the BodyPower for all the Animals attending. They are planning to send someone from Corporate and most likely, an athlete. See if ya can drum up some enthusiasm. Any help organizing a big turnout at the BodyPower show and the ABC would be greatly appreciated brother.

I've been spreading the word and trying to gain some enthusiasm. I should have a few people with me and hanging around throughout the day as well as some fairly well known bodyfitness/Figure girls from over here.... Also, one of them said Temple could be used for an ABC but is pretty small as someone stated above.

We need to know where everyone lives and the we can go from there.

EVERYONE in the UK...tell me where you live! Im in Northamptonshire...off the A14...toward Corby. I actually live in a town called Kettering. Im close to 4 American military bases...Molesworth and Alconbury are off the A14...Lakenheath and Mildenhall are off the A11.

Im a bit of a way from London and not familiar with London at all. I only been there a couple times. I do have a GPS..so I can find my way no matter where we decide to do this. We all agree a weekend day is best right? Like a saturday?


How do you join the UK ABC?

There have been some meets but a lot of people are just not interested here in the UK, frustrating but thats the way it is, people are busy or not interested in meeting up.

You could post up some gyms near you that people may wish to meet up with you to train, not sure who is going to the British shortly but maybe a meet can take place around that time in Nottingham.

Anyone up for a session with Sprint?

Total Fitness in Lincoln is where I train & work brother. Not sure if it'll be close enough to where you're staying in Whitby, York, & Alford, but I'll get the postcode (zipcode) tomorrow & post it up so you can have a check on a sat nav or something.

Quick bit of info about the place...DB's up to 50kg, olympic bars, more than enough plates, adjustable benches, squat rack, cage, smith machine, 2 cable crossover stations (1 big, 1 about half the size) hammerstrength iso-seated chest press, h.s. iso-shoulder press, h.s. iso-lat pulldown, h.s. iso-row, standard lat pulldown, the usual suspects of resistance machines, cardio, bikes, cross-trainers etc.

It's not exactly hardcore, it's a 'family gym' but that means big car park with free parking.

They typically charge £15 for a day pass for a non-member (altho they've been talking about changing it for ages, if a non-member is having a session with a self-employed PT such as myself, it's £5 to get in, it's less because that non-member will be paying the PT for their services, so if you're planning on dropping in, let me know & as far as they know, you'll be my 'client'...)

Oh and don't get duped into buying a padlock for another £5, you can stash your stuff in the PT office where I leave all my stuff ( clothes, cooler, paperwork, valuables etc).

I'll hit up that address tomorrow for you, & if it suits then give me a shout.
