if u dont mind me asking what is the trip to the arnold gonna cost? im thinking about saving up for a bodybuilding pilgrimage.. next yeaqr i want to go to the arnold, down to metroflex in texas, and then over to california and then head up to the east side on the way back and train at bev's powerhouse..
BTW, i heard that frank mcgrath trains in brampton at bodyworks -- could we get him into the mix for the Ontario ABC meet??

It would be nice, but he's a busy man. We've been told something big may happen if this goes down in the GTA. We can hope, but let's not put any pressure on anybody.
As for the cost, it would depend on how many are going. I was thinking about getting a couple of rooms booked, but we have to make our decisions fast.
Anybody interested in Animal Gear has until next Thursday to give me the information.
FUCK YEAH I WANNA GO!!!!
get me some prices and we can split gas and what not. we'llk get er done the right way!

I've got a better idea. Why don't you eat a bar of scented soap each day for the week previous to the trip. That way we don't have to worry about having enough air freshener.

Hey fella's. a little request...
When i was growing up, me and my sis became friends with my mums friends daughters. We grew up together, went on trips, played in the park between 3-10yrs old. Then my mums friend had to move to Canada with the girls, as their father tried to kill them all. They had to take on a new identity (keeping first names) and lived in Burlington, Ontario. I went over and stayed there with my mum for 2 weeks in 1995.
Anyway i got a call from my mum telling me that the eldest daughter, Dee, 30, had been killed in a car crash....
http://www.burlingtonpost.com/news/article/147261
Its been really hard to take, as we stayed in touch, she was a beautiful, fun girl, full of life. And my heart goes out to her mum Lyn and sister Liddy.
Guys, when you get this together, would you all put in a last rep for Dee Thornton....

Finding a gym to let us train in isn't the problem, it's finding one that is big enough and will let us use cameras is.
ive been telling stiff about fitness 365, i dont know if he talked to them or not

Stiff was saying he is getting his first day off in weeks... so I am assuming he knows about your gym Pearce and he is going to check it out him when he gets a chance... Not speaking for him at all.. but I want to see it get done soon too ha... I haven't seen him in a while and the last time we met I had almost 20LBS on him and now we are almost the same weight... I have to see the "bulked" Stiff...

Whats they're stance on bringing cameras? I guess they're ok with it since you shot you video there.
im pretty sure they'll be ok with it..
im just anxious to get this meet going cuz i just started a diet for a natural show im doing in july.. i know im gonna lose strength and some muscle as always is the case when you diet down.. and i gotta keep up with you guys.. hah, so i dont want it to be too far away or else ill look like a poon with poon weights...
i started out at 278 at 6 3.. im down to 269 now.. strength is still the same for now..
Thanks to Pearce, we have found a good gym in the GTA to train at. I called his gym and got the OK from the assistant manager, Cathy. The one-time pass fee is $10. We ARE allowed to use cameras and set up our banner for the group pic. All we need to do now is set a date. I'm thinking a weekend in early Feb. would be best so we can organize the trip to the Cage at the Arnold Classic.
Lets have some chatter. I want to know when you guys are available so we can have the largest group possible. Let's also arrange rides for those who don't/can't drive.
I'm down for whenever boys!! wheres the gym anyways?? and Pearce...what show you training for in June? I;m training for one as well, FAME Worlds.

I don't think that is possible because at the end of Feb. half of us are going to The Cage at the Arnold Classic.

Ah it's been awhile since I've been in school, so what exactly is reading week, exams or March Break?

I've been thinking up driving plans. My original plan was... Herdz and Chin could meet me in Cambridge. I will get Hollow 1. We will then proceed to the gym.
This leaves out Hardgainer and A-Dub. Perhaps we could take 2 cars. Any other driving volunteers?

Anytime is good for me. Did you mean Chin?
I would hope to start at about 9:30...
I finish work at 6:30, eat.... so it will put it at about 7:30, over at Knox by 8 to pick everyone up... 1 hour to Sauga... 30 minutes to prep and 9:30 we are in the game?

We meetin at hard knox chin??
herdz
I fgured it would be better for the 4 or 5 of us if A dub comes because I live in Waterloo and its a little bit out of the way.. Hard knox is probably 5 minutes from the 401 while I am about 15 away from the 401. A dub, Stiff and Hollow are fairly close to Knox. So I thought it would just make sense because you know how to get there.... Unless you guys want to do something else but I am not a bus lol I don't know if I can pick you all up outside your houses.

You know I am in for 9:30 because I suggested it lol. Can you start making pick up arrangements or meet up at Knox... I don't think it will be a big issue for you and Hollow, But I don't know about A dub and his buddy... but I can conformtably seat myself + 5 others, and if we need to squish one more in there we can do it.

I would have to see the logistics of it when we get there, but I was thinking the following non stop:
Smith Squats x 10reps
Smith Front Squats x 10reps
Leg Press x 10 reps
Hack Squats x 10reps
Walking lunges x 10reps
And that would be the first of four sets. Remember, this type of workout is about heart and mental toughness NOT WEIGHT!!!

Yup, same deal. My metatarsals are too long to do them comfortably.

It's partly because they're flat. If I can find them I can also fit into 15 4Ws. It just helps with my balance when I squat and deadlift.
Anywhoooo... Anybody have any questions/comments regarding the upcoming session or the trip to the Arnold?

what's going on fellas? with the encrouagement of Stiff, just giving a shout out to my fellow canadian/ontario animals. each journey begins with a single step, right? this is mine. i live in toronto. very close to the GTA. i look forward to lifting and learning from all of you. i'll do my best to join you guys on Satruday the 23rd. It would be perfect cause Saturday is always leg day for me. if i can't, i'll be there in motivational spirit form.

Expo tickets are purchased, hotel is booked. Contact Shifty for hotel price and info, he got us an interesting deal.

That would be a good time. We could plan a session around your arrival.
So... I know no one is going to be happy with this... but after I talked to my boss... there is really no way I can get out of the doubles I am suppose to work on the weekends...
I am not really impressed with this at all... On top of that I am getting feed back from some of my professors that I am doing sub par work... and my grades are reflecting that right now...
I basically walked into a pile of shit that I am very bitter about... I know one likes to hear excuses.. but this is the sad reality I am left with...
I am very sorry fellas... I feel really shitty because I was suppose to be the ride... and I sorta fucked all of you guys...

No 5 plates yet. I haven't really been focusing on squats as much as I have deads lately. I want to find out what my new max in deads is soon. I am also coming to the realization that I need to start taking bench pressing more seriously.
I'll do a little Arnold update as soon as herdz gets me the pics.

Make the trip, it's worth it. Take a weekend off, rent a cottage, train with us, and go fishing!!!!
Come to think of it, we should all do that. Take to a cottage for a weekend. Each of us cart down some weights, and pull a Muscle Beach Canada type deal.

i work until 6pm on saturdays. i haven't seen my other work schedule, but if i don't have to work, then i'm in. as for my gym, it closes at 7pm on the weekends, so i don't think it will work.
How about the 3rd of May, if I have this transformation contest that starts on the 5th... that would give Herdz a chance to show me how to pose... HAHA...

Welcome! You are in the same general area as HYPERTROPHY81, Pearce, and roborob. I also work at Pearson Airport so perhaps we could get a couple of side sessions in together.
The third of May is fine with me as long as we start training before 10am. I work that afternoon at the airport.
so i have to leave at what time in the am? hahah

We haven't yet decided on the day, just throwing out some ideas. Is there a time of day you'd prefer to train?
May 3rd was a Saturday, pretty cool with me, I don't got too much on my plate right now. Of course, I'd like it to be as close to where I live as possible but who wouldn't :) Anywhere around the GTA is alright with me, I see that its been suggested to have the meet in the Cambridge area which I guess isn't too bad, an hours drive for me is acceptable, anything further and I'd have to pass... what can I say, gas is a bitch these days.

Cambridge is usually good because a couple of us live hear, it's closer to herdz than Toronto, and it's not too far from you guys in the GTA. You also don't have to pay an access fee to use the gym. If it ends up being in Cambridge, would you mind carpooling with a couple of the other guys in your area?
Carpool sounds great, and not having to pay to go to the gym sounds even better.

bros, i'm booked fairly solid that day and afterwards i'm working at the university. that being said, the morning is probably the only good time for me and that's only if my 9am time slot doesn't get filled. sorry fellas, i've said it a million times. my schedule fuckin sucks. i can't book anything off if it's not 4 weeks in advance. at this point, i can only hope that it just stays empty.

no worries herdz. it's my fault. i know how my schedule works and how booking days off works, so i shoud have taken more initiative and listed some days to get things rolling. as of now my schedule has changed again. i've got a client at 10am. so things aren't looking good from my stand point.
It looks like we'll be having 1 on May 3rd, but another one soon after so that those who could not attend will have a chance to.

Since some people are training for a competition, I think everyone should train whatever body part they would be normally on that day. We don't want any routines screwed up close to a comp.
