View Full Version : Arkansas Animals
Fellow AR animals, I'm going to take the lead in trying to keep us as a solid brotherhood here as I know there are not many of us...I live up in Fayetteville and I know Crash does too.
Let's make this chapter of the ABC a strong one by keeping each other accountable and helping each other out whenever we can.
I would love to set a workout and meeting sometime here in the near future, I will be getting married two weeks from this Saturday and won't be back until around the end of November and I know that all of us will be getting ready for the holidays, but you guys give me some feedback on what you are thinking as I was thinking about doing something around the first of the year...
Let's go ahead and introduce ourselves and let everybody know what part of AR you are in...If anybody needs to ever get in touch with me my number is 479-225-2371
Maximus told it like it is. I'm down for whatever, whenever, however. Just give me date, time and place. It's high time that we poor lost souls out here in Hillbilly Country, raise up, to Layeth the Smacketh Down. PM me for my Cell.
...Strength and Honor...

Surely there are more then three of us animals here in arkansas? Anyways, I should be able to make it up there any weekend between now and when I come back for xmas break. Also, have either you guys ever been to the golds? I here the rate is pretty cheap...
I have yet to see a Gold's up here, unless you are talking about the World gym...anyways, those gyms are too froo-froo and we will get in trouble for making noise there...Crash and I are both members of the Northwest Athletic Club and trust me, that is an Animal gym if there ever was one...

Yea your right, I was thinking of the worlds.

That's the problem, with living in the Walmart capital of the world. They think "Good Enough" is "Good Enough". Believe me. Enough times of seeing three Lunatics, running around in Animal Gear, training their Balls off, will create a stir. It only takes one to start a Revolution.

Amen, brotha! Now that's what I'm talking about!
Maximus, Torque, and Crash......it's mchik and I'm down in Arkadelphia, but I will do my best to make the trip up there to Fayetville/Springdale even if I have to take a friggin bus. All i need is a date, time, and place.
The Place will be Northwest Athletic Club, where Maximus and I Train. The Day and Time have not been set yet. Maximus is wanting to wait till the first of the year. I do not know how that will co-inside with Mchik, and Torque757's schedule since you two are both in school. Feasibly, the earliest and most convient time looks like December 15th and 16th. We could train in the early afternoon, and then hit Panda's Chinese Buffet. They have Spicy Fajita beef, Steamed Seafood and Vegatables, Rice and Vegatables. Etc. Etc. Etc. If we are wanting to wait till the first of the year, then I believe that the 5th and 6th would be the very latest before Mchik and Torque757 are called back to school. Let's get this ball rolling. I say we do Back or Wheels as I want to show the masses how you train to be a freak.

We won't turn you away bro...come on down! Now that I am finally back from the honeymoon and life is starting to get back to normal, I don't think that the 15th and 16th will be a problem...Crash is definately right about going to the Panda Buffet, that place has sushi, fajita beef, and all the good stuff that we will need. Let's tenatively mark off the 15th or 16th as our meeting day...and back or wheels is fine w/me.
Crash, thanks for taking over w/the VP duties while I was in Cabo...you are the man, bro!

Not a problem buddy...I feel that the 15th may be the best b/c its a Saturday and that will give everybody a chance to make it home on Sunday...Give me some feedback everyone
I agree. I have work committments on both days, But on Saturday I have to be in at 5 pm, as opposed to 3 on Sunday. The gym opens at 10:00 on Saturday. I say we stride in at high noon. At that time the early Weekend Warriors should be finishing up, and the Gun Bunnies that are sleeping in will just be getting their cups of Mocha-Choca-Latte, or their Cans of energy drink.
I say Wheels till the first person passes out. Since you are the Salesman, Maximus, do you want to talk to Lee?

Haha...yeah I can talk to Lee, last time I went in there w/one of my buddies, he let them work out for free since they had never been there...but even if we don't get everybody in for free, it's only $5 so it's pocket change
everything sounds great here. I'll just make some final arrangements and should be good to go.
I didn't know if Lee would want to do anything to promote it or not. I know he's got some "big" guys there. But if Mchik is actually able to make it, she would blow those three housewives on diet pills out of the water. Could you actually see one of those skinny bitches putting 135 on their back for reps? That, and Four other guys training their balls off. I think it will be quite the event.

I am sure they paired off, and went with the "I Go, You Go" method. Our gym has 2 squat racks, a cage, 1 leg press, and 1 hack squat machine. They have 3 leg extensions(one upstairs), all of which suck except the one back in the Leg Room. a Lying Leg curl, a sitting leg curl (Which Sucks) and a Hamtractor (Upstairs) (Which is pretty good as a finishing exercise.) I don't think we'll have a problem.

Sweet!
Snow has been forecast for this Saturday. I know I have 4 Wheel Drive and Maximus should have it on his Expedition. I am unsure about Gelbach! and Torque757. Knowing the weather here in this Fucked up State; It's either going to be sunny, or we are going to get a foot of snow. If either of you two guys need some help, let us know.

I'm glad you brought that up crash, b/c I didn't know if you guys still wanted to do this with the bad weather forecast...I can't drive my Expedition b/c it is the company vehicle but I have an Accord that I can drive...I hope Torque and Gelbach will still be able to make it...Gelbach let us know if you can come
...Miss a Wheel workout because of bad weather?...Only if the Gym is closed...It seems they've down graded it to simply "light snow"...Who the fuck knows?...I have to be at work that day at 8AM to load our granite scrap to be hauled off...After that I am going to the gym...I've been looking at the Cage and Leg Press for a couple of says now...And I am sure that its going to be calling me again while I am Deadlifting tonight...If any of you guys need some help...My Dodge seats Six...Well,four...Join me...

What's up Brothers,
Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself. I'm 23 years old. I'm originally from Springdale, but I'm currently in Italy serving in the military. I've been in the trenches for about a year and a half now. I've had a few setbacks but hope to stay healthy for a while. I'm 5'10", 205lbs, and 10% bf. I have the itch and I can't get rid of it. I go to the gym to try and change my body every training session. Looking forward to getting out of the service and getting back to my roots in Arkansas. Can't wait to do my part in the FORVM and hope to be a part of this club. If anyone could PM me an up to date scoop that would be great.
Gehlbach!
12-16-07, 5:02 pm
Guys how did the lift session go? I haven't heard nothign yet. I hope it ws great and lets see some pics!
There was only three of us, but we rocked our legs really hard! It sucks you got sick, you missed out on a great session, but there will definately be plenty more. I hope your feeling better so that you can get back into action quickly. Crash and Torque, thanks for coming and bustin your tails like a true animal does. Torque, Crash and I look forward to your prescence at the Northwest Athletic Club while you are out on break.
BigCountry-we will be more than happy to add you to our ABC. We need all we can get and let us know when you are getting back and we can probably plan another session around that. Thanks for keeping us safe over there and we look forward to having you with us soon!

The next time I should be home on leave is around the middle of March, so if you wanna start planning on something then. I'll be home for at least 2 weeks so I'll be open anyday. Plus my house is only 5 mins. away from Northwest Athletic Club.

That sounds like a plan...did you workout at the Northwest Athletic Club when you were here?
BigCountry021
12-19-07, 10:40 am
I just worked out wherever I could. I've been in NW Athletic Club a couple of times. I'm not picky on where I workout as long as I can get in there and not worry about people being in the way. I'll let ya know the exact dates when I get the flight plans arranged.

Whats up guys?! Just checkin in to see if anything new was goin on. Just found out when I'll be home on leave. I should get home on March 14th but that first weekend I'll be wrapped up with my best friends wedding but that next saturday, the 22nd, I'll be free if we can get something going.
The only person that would have a conflict is Torque 757. Maximus and I live in Northwest Arkansas. We are still trying to get Mchik up here too.

The more the merrier. I started an abc ove here in Sicily where I'm stationed. We're havin our first meeting on March 1st. Should be a good outing. I train with themovielife over here and we are workin on getting some pics posted up. Hopefully we can get torque down while I'm home.
My parents barely let me drive to Benton alone to watch the movies, but I'm still trying to conjure up ideas. My spring break will be sometime in March....so that might work out great!

Glad to see something new is the works. I will keep checking back here, and when theres a finalized date i will do my best to plan accordingly to make it up.
well, since torque and mcchik are both still in school, it looks like something around spring break in March would be best for everyone...what is everybody's thoughts?

01-31-08, 12:46 pm
Thats good with me cuz I'll be home on leave from the 14th of March until about the 2nd of April.

I always know I can count on you, Crash...
my spring break is March 17-21...
...So it looks like March 22nd is the day...That just leaves the time to train, and what to train...Then where to eat afterwards...
Guys and gal, it's getting real close to our next ABC...We have next Saturday, March 22nd set as the day at the Northwest Athletic Club and if anybody has ideas for a good place to eat, I'm all ears. Steak n' Shake crossed my mind, but you guys just let me know!
Also, what time do we want to do this? 11:00? 1:00? lets hear some thoughts
I'm staying w/ my grandma on spring break, so I'm trying to "pulll some strings." :)
If I do get to go, I would come by bus....doesn't matter what time to me.
What are we gonna train?
I personally always train arms on Saturday's and that is what I was planning on training...but lets get some input fellas
...11am definately...I should be through with the Powerlifters by then...I'll be warm and down for anything...
I also set aside Saturday for arms.
I was checking the bus schedule and if I do get to come 11:00 AM is just fine.
Awesome! that will be great to have you there...Bigcountry, can you make it?
Are all you Razorback and (Longhorn) fans ready for the ABC this Saturday?
Whats up guys i live in Rogers. I train at benton county barbell. I just started in to body building.
If guys get this going again, i know that gehlbach had talked about showing, and if he does, i could ride down too.

...It's that time again...Classes are almost out, and it is time for Motherfucking School... Where is everyone at?..
Okay... Maximus is taking a break so as to concentrate on his upcomming child to be born. Where is everyone, and what is going on?...
Whats up with these work out partners? When the iron gets heavy they start running. I just lost another workout partner. Now its not the time trying to get rdy for the NW classic. Sorry guys had to vent alittle.If any one needs a work out partner let me know. I just want to bodybuild.

Seems as though you and I are the only one's around here. mchik is hasn't sounded here in awhile. Torque757 is back in Conway, although he might be back for the summer. Maximus is concentrating on getting ready for his trophy, and I never saw BigCountry021.
We need to get something together.
We need to. What days do you lift?
Monday (Wheels)
Wednesday (Chest-Front Delts)
Saturday (Back-Middle/Rear Delts)
Sunday (Gunshow)
The former two are in the evening. The latter two are in the morning.
Mon-legs
tue-chest
wed-arms
thur-back
fri-shoulders
1 hour cadio every morning and 15 cool down after each workout except legs
Im trying to get rdy for the nw classic.
I don't want to interrupt you with your prep. I am taking it old school. Lots of Squats, Deadlifts, and Benches. However you want to get down. If you want to wait till after the NWA Classic, that is cool with me.
Well im backing out this years show. I dont think im big enough yet. plus i have only been doing this for 4 months. Show im going to prep for a show next year. being 5' 11" I want to put more size on.
...Well then, Tell me how you want to throw down...
Heres my # 595-9944 lets set it up
Let me see if my boy is going to be medically cleared for Saturday. Then I'll give you a ring.
...I just got the Word that my Boy "T" has been medically cleared to train again... I work with him on Saturdays from 2-3. So what If we get together at lets say 3 to kill some back... Pull-ups, Bent Over Rows, and my Personal Favorite the Dip Grip and Rip...
This is a call to all Arkansas Animals in preparation of the next Arkansas ABC event.
...
I think you are alone homeboy.
...What a Pity...More Plates and More Weights for me...
...What a Pity...More Plates and More Weights for me...
I would love to head down there bro, but i can't even make the ones in my own state that much. I am sure you can wake them up.
Springdale is a 5 hr. drive for me, so I just can't make it....sorry guys.
...What most suffer from here, is Ostrich syndrome, or Peacock-itis. And I will be god-damned if I am going to be some Street Corner Preacher. The best Example I know, is to Lead by Example, So that is what I will do. Everyday, every Plate, every Rep. And those who truly want to find the Path of Enlightment will hear the Call...

Have two people I lift wth in The Rock. One of them is 22 and is still in college and the other is 28 and working everyday like me. Our gym is small but we have everything we need and people stay out of our way so it works. Our gym manager and good friend still competes at age 64 and looks fantastic. No one in my workout group competes although we have the size to make some noise. We have Justin 6'4 250-260ish, DJ 5'6 230, and myself at 5'7 190.
Started a blog as more of a workout journal last week. Check it out at CelticMuscle@blogspot.com
If anyone ever wants to come down and hit chest on a random Saturday just let me know. Gym guest fees are free for my boys. I'll buy the protein.

Nope. I'm back up here in Springdale... For now...
...Who was the guy who posted that he trained in The Rock with two others?... Having an ABC up in the 479 would definately accomidate my schedule better...
...Strength and Honor...
does anyone train in the rogers area?
...I think I was the only one up in NWA. I have relocated down to the Fort. Ur welcome to come down here, or occasionally I go up there...

Good to see you bringing it, Crash...
Where the hell's my boy Maximus? He's been missed 'round these parts.
Peace, G
yo guys. Im going to be coming home from the ghan in august. My family lives in cabot so thats where ill be staying for about 2 weeks. I know it is a ways off but I would like to get a good session in while Im home. No one here shares the same goals as me here and none of my friends from home lift. We have plenty of time to prep. What do you guys think?
Maximus, is mia after his child was born. I'm holding it down in the Fort stride, if you want to bring the noise, I am down.
like I said. we have plenty of time to plan. I just wanted to throw the idea out there.

I have been in Hot Springs for almost three years training off and on silently while still keeping up with the Animal guys every now and then. I have decided to turn up the heat here in Hot Springs. I'm looking for others wanting to share the journey.
...Sorry Guys, not much happening in the 501 or the Dirty 479. Still holding it down in the Fort...
...Strength and Honor...
I'm up here in northeast Arkansas I'm currently trying to coordinate an animal barbell club meet around here, but that's all I am tracking
