i will break your camera. hope its not expensive

[Boonetang789]

Hey i figured i'd drop some knowledge since i study Digital Media Studies, and tell you about some good ways to publish pics on the net.

Facebook (completely free; limitless photos)
http://www.facebook.com

Picasa (Google's answer to online photos; photo software as well; 1GB space)
http://www.picasa.com

Flickr (also good and free to an extent; 100MB per month)
http://www.flickr.com

But really if you wanna talk more about tech stuff, it is what i do and enjoy and will be more than happy to tell you more about anything just PM me. Enough from the nerd corner for now.

[GrayBull]

i will break your camera. hope its not expensive

Hah. Sure thing...

[pain4life]

Boonetang789, thanks for the advice. I am going to use Picasa for our web album.

[born0withno0soul]

Guys we need to try and round everyone up that has posted here to get them to post again for one last roll call.

[pain4life]

I Will Be At The Event!

[Strokin385]

Count me in for sure! Ordered my shirt just now...should get here by Friday! Is it okay to bring a couple of friends who are wanting to check it out? I am trying to get them to sign up, but they may be more interested after getting to know the whole thing better.

[GrayBull]

You know I'm coming...I also pm'd some of the guys from earlier in the thread, but never got a response. Born, did you search the FAQ for more people in the area?

[Boonetang789]

I will be there for sure!

[born0withno0soul]

You know I'm coming...I also pm'd some of the guys from earlier in the thread, but never got a response. Born, did you search the FAQ for more people in the area?

i have pm'ed just about everyone i can find but it helps for you guys to look as well incase i missed someone.

were always looking to make the abc to grow. get them to sign up on animal pak.com and check in here at the thread if you can.

[born0withno0soul]

graybull did you ever get in contact with the gym today?

[Cyrus The Virus]

I will be there.

[stumblin54]

This ABC's lookin' like it's going to be a great one. Nice work gentlemen.

Stumblin

[born0withno0soul]

yea stumblin i was beginning to think it would never happen. thanks to graybull and pain4life this thing is really rolling

[pain4life]

If anyone has extra Animal Shirts, bring them to the event on Saturday for any guys who have just decided to join us in the last few days. It will probably be too late for them to order a shirt and get it by Saturday!!!

[born0withno0soul]

Pain4Life is right. anyone with any extra animal shirts need to bring them. if everyhting shows up in the mail on time, we will be hanging a large animal banner for a group picture and signatures. everyone needs to have an animal shirt for this.

[born0withno0soul]

I also want all of you guys to know that pain4life is the Colorado ABC Recruiter. any questions you may have, pain4life and i will do our best to answer. Dont let this thread die down guys. help us make this event grow and make some memories. spread the word

[GrayBull]

Congratulations, Pain!

[pain4life]

Thanks brother. I will do my best to keep in contact with possible prospects and to keep everyone informed of future events.

[pain4life]

Is everybody excited about tomorrow! You best be, because tomorrow it is on!!!

[born0withno0soul]

Is everybody excited about tomorrow! You best be, because tomorrow it is on!!!

i know damn well i am. i have been lifting for 2 years or better and i have never had a workout partner. now i get to workout with a whole group of dedicated lifters

[G Diesel]

i know damn well i am. i have been lifting for 2 years or better and i have never had a workout partner. now i get to workout with a whole group of dedicated lifters

Nothing beats the raw energy and camaraderie of the ABCs... PRs will be set and plateaus will be busted, every time. Peace, G

Indeed it is...get ready for the pain!!!

[GrayBull]

Yeah...so somebody definitely bring an extra shirt tomorrow because I just got home and checked the mail and mine still hasn't come in!!! Agh! It was ordered last week.

[born0withno0soul]

everyone try to bring an extra shirt today if you have one in case we have some guys without one

[born0withno0soul]

Well guys, the first colorado event was a huge success. six people showed up with a strong will to move a lot of weight. the gym we chose to workout in was needless to say, a hardcore gym that most people will never get to see. there were barbells and 45 lb pies everywhere. they had everything a strongman competitor could ever need. a bodybuilders dream. we hit legs today and it was the best leg workout i have ever endured. we started with squats to get the blood flowing and i think its safe to say almost everyone hit a new personal record, one cat hitting 500 lbs for deep reps. but that was just a warmup. after that we went to front squats and continued warming up with the heaviest weight possible. then we moved on to the leg press. the fun started and people began really feeling the burn here. after that, stiff legged deadlifts. followed by leg curls, extensions, and of course supersetted calves. i can honestly say this is the best time i have had in along time and actually brought the fun back into weightlifting that i had lost awhile back. thanks guys for the experience. next time is my favorite. back day. deadlifts until everyone sees stars or pukes.

[born0withno0soul]

oh, and we also took a lot of pictures that will be posted up as soon as possible.

[pain4life]

Today's workout kicked my ass!! I am still feeling the burn and just know I will be in more pain tomorrow!! All you guys were great and I can't wait to meet up again very soon for the next Animal Session. You guys gave me the energy I needed to keep pumping out those last painful reps with weight well above what I had been doing.

There are definitely some HARDCORE ANIMALS in Colorado we just had to find them and bring them together in one place.

[pain4life]

I also wanted to say that we couldn't have picked a more Hardcore Gym!! The Colorado Pro Gym is just that. It is a gym for those who go to the gym to become Animals, not to get dates. It is by far the best gym I have ever been to in Colorado and will be joining very soon. Everyone in the gym had one goal, to get bigger and stronger.

[pain4life]

I will be posting the pics tomorrow so everyone can see them and share them!!

[pain4life]

I want more pain guys!! When is back day fellas?

[GrayBull]

Hell yeah. It kicked mine too...was still trying to stretch in the shower at 1230am because my legs were so tight.
But today was awesome, guys. I'm really glad we all got to meet up and train together. Seems like we're really going to be pushing each other from now on, which is stupendous. Colorado Pro Gym is going to suit us very well. I can't wait for our next meet!

PS- if you're sure about joining, let me know so I can get a hold of Matt and let him know. His policy is 5 or more need to join to get the cheap discount, but if there aren't that many wanting to maybe I can talk to him and see if he can make some kind of exception.

Let's get planning on the next meet...BACK!

[pain4life]

Graybull, let me know when you go down there to join. I am definitely in!!!

[GrayBull]

Born/Boon, I wont be able to make it to the gym at 12. But I can go at 330...
My cell is- 832.212.1412. Call or text to let me know if this is a problem or anything as I wont be able to check this. Sorry for the confusion, didn't know I'd have to be doing this yesterday.

[Boonetang789]

yeah my legs are pretty tight today. That was a good workout for sure. I am excited to meet again. I won't be joining that gym though, because i got DU's gym. Monday when i hit the gym i will ask if we all could meet there sometime in the future. If we did chest or arms there it would be awesome because DU has a lot of flat benches i think they have like 5 or 6 benching benches and then probably like 4 more just flat benches.

More to come later on that.

Graybull: just sent you a text, but either time is fine. Let me know what born says.

[born0withno0soul]

Im just throwing this out there and you guys can tell me what you think. May 11, 2008. Its on a Sunday and a little over 30 days from today. After talking around with you guys, would Sunday be easier for everyone to show up. A lot of people have shit going on Saturdays like work, and their kids' sports games. Colorado Pro Gym again of course

[Boonetang789]

yeah May 11th is fine.

[born0withno0soul]

We may or may not do an ABC every month but i figured we needed to get another going soon so we can get the Animal banner up and signed. I also sent out private messages to 20 people from Colorado on this forvm that did not come to the first event. May 11 should give enough time to spread the word and get it worked into everyones busy schedule.

[born0withno0soul]

Well it was brought to my attention that mothers day is may 11 and i dont think we need to meet up on that day. So lets do it the next sunday, May 18, 2007

[pain4life]

I posted the pics from the event under "the gallery" section of "the board". Enjoy the pics and lets post some comments!!

[born0withno0soul]

awesome pics pain. as much as i hate taking pics i can say i am proud to be in these. just for anyone wanting to know, so we can learn names better, i am the one wearing the beanie. everyone else describe yourselves so we can better match faces with names.

[pain4life]

That's a great idea Born! I am wearing the red Animal shirt with the blue/white shorts!!

[GrayBull]

I'm the one also wearing a beanie, with the white-ish pants on.

Thanks for posting the pictures, pain. Next time I'll take some videos as well.

...unless you've talked to Matt and got something changed- admission will be $15.

[born0withno0soul]

well we need to get that worked out. the woman running the check-in desk told me and cyrus 10 dollars. we need to get this settled quickly.

[pain4life]

Lets get a few more guys together to join so we can have the $20/month membership!

[Boonetang789]

i'll be there for the May workout and if anyone wants to workout sooner let me know what your thinking. Obviously weekends are better; although this weekend i'll be gone.

[pain4life]

i'll be there for the May workout and if anyone wants to workout sooner let me know what your thinking. Obviously weekends are better; although this weekend i'll be gone.

I would definitely like to meet up before the next event for a workout session or two.

[GrayBull]

Hmm...that's weird. I didn't talk to that lady about any prices, but every time Matt's mentioned it it's been $15/session.
Chad, are you going to call and find out who's right, or do you want me too?

[born0withno0soul]

i would assume the owner knows best. i will pm everyone and tell them the admission is 15. i wonder if he will cut us a deal if there are 5 or more people?

[Boonetang789]

I am wearing the red Animal shirt and wearing black shorts with red on them. My name is Boone.

[born0withno0soul]

graybull if you would give a call i would appreciate it. i know you have called several times before but lets get this figured out so i can pm everyone about the change as soon as possible

[GrayBull]

Hey sorry for taking so long to get back. I'll give him a call tomorrow and clear this up...

[GrayBull]

i'll be there for the May workout and if anyone wants to workout sooner let me know what your thinking. Obviously weekends are better; although this weekend i'll be gone.

I'm always down for a workout with any of you that want to get together...
My number is posted on page 15 so any of you can just give me a call or post up a suggestion on here.

[Cyrus The Virus]

Glad the pictures camshirte out good. I am the one weraing the black animal shirt and black pants.

[born0withno0soul]

Hey sorry for taking so long to get back. I'll give him a call tomorrow and clear this up...

thanks dude. let me know as soon as you find out. dont text me or call because my phone is down until friday.

[born0withno0soul]

Come on guys lets keep this thread going and promote the event. Ask friends and family if they want to come May 18 and see what real training is? lol

[born0withno0soul]

Hey gray, hit me up if you want to hit back or chest sunday. i was wanting to do back but either one is fine with me

[GrayBull]

Come on guys lets keep this thread going and promote the event. Ask friends and family if they want to come May 18 and see what real training is? lol

Hah. Yeah it is getting pretty stale here...but hopefully you all are still talking about it to people during the day.

[GrayBull]

Hey I got in touch with Matt today...he said he didn't know what the lady was talking about. So it's STILL $15 dollars a session per person.

[born0withno0soul]

right on bro. thanks

Admission: $15

I apologize for the inconvenience but i was mistaken on the admission price to Colorado Pro Gym. The one day entry will be 15 dollars. I know this is a bit expensive but the time invested in the ABC event and getting to workout in a hardcore gym like Colorado Pro is worth it. Hope to see you there and spread the word. I pm'ed this everyone in my list but i thought i would also post this here.

[GrayBull]

Hey gray, hit me up if you want to hit back or chest sunday. i was wanting to do back but either one is fine with me

For sure, man. My current split has me doing chest on Monday so it'd be best for us to have another chest session. Plus it's good to have a spotter on that day.

[GrayBull]

right on bro. thanks

My pleasure.

[born0withno0soul]

For sure, man. My current split has me doing chest on Monday so it'd be best for us to have another chest session. Plus it's good to have a spotter on that day.

yea if you want to hit chest give me a time and location

[GrayBull]

It's my birthday today, guys. The big 20. If anybody likes sushi/Japanese feel free to come eat with me, the gf, and a couple friends tonight.
If you're interested let me know I'll let you know where and when.

[born0withno0soul]

happy birthday dude.enjoy yourself.

[pain4life]

Happy Bday Graybull! If I wasn't working today I would definitely meet you guys for sushi!! I love Sushi!!!!

[born0withno0soul]

yea i cant say the same. i do get a cheat meal tonight but it wont be wasted on sushi.lol, sorry

[born0withno0soul]

graybull, im hitting chest today if you want to join up. tell me when and where and ill be there if i get the message in time. hit me up

[GrayBull]

graybull, im hitting chest today if you want to join up. tell me when and where and ill be there if i get the message in time. hit me up

Dude, you know I'm down. Parker/Quincy...330?

[born0withno0soul]

ill be there at 3:30.

[born0withno0soul]

thanks for the workout graybull. im going try having a shorter arm workout like today and see what happens. it felt good.

[born0withno0soul]

So how many people can say they have friends coming to the next event?

[Cyrus The Virus]

None of my friends work out so it will just be me.

[born0withno0soul]

thats the same with me cyrus. guess we need to choose more friends from the gym

[GrayBull]

thanks for the workout graybull. im going try having a shorter arm workout like today and see what happens. it felt good.

Yeah man. It was a pretty good one today. Though I hated doing dumbbells...with a passion!!

[born0withno0soul]

i think dumbells feel great but just not on decline. i wont be doing any more declines because that didnt work shit but delts

[pain4life]

So how many people can say they have friends coming to the next event?

I think I will have at least two maybe three!

[born0withno0soul]

thats awesome pain. make sure they know it will be 15 dollars for entry.

[GrayBull]

i think dumbells feel great but just not on decline. i wont be doing any more declines because that didnt work shit but delts

No, I'm just playing. I actually think DB, both incline and decline, feel pretty good. It's just that first set that threw me off with that over-stretch in my right pectoral. Like I said....terrified of tearing something. That's why all my reps are so controlled.

[GrayBull]

I think I will have at least two maybe three!

Awesome!...the more the better.

[born0withno0soul]

hell yes. i expect a good turnout for the next event when we take our pic with the animal banner. we also have some sample packs to pass out to the original 6 who came to the first abc event

[pain4life]

hell yes. i expect a good turnout for the next event when we take our pic with the animal banner. we also have some sample packs to pass out to the original 6 who came to the first abc event

Sounds good!! I can't wait to get a picture with the Banner!!!

[born0withno0soul]

yea that will be good shit. hey pain, did you ever get your lifting belt in?

[pain4life]

yea that will be good shit. hey pain, did you ever get your lifting belt in?

I plan to order it on Friday after I get paid. I am debating however between the 10mm and 13mm thick belt. What do you think?

[G Diesel]

So how many people can say they have friends coming to the next event?

It takes time and a lot of promotion, born... Keep working hard and spreading the word. The next event will be large. Peace, G

[born0withno0soul]

I plan to order it on Friday after I get paid. I am debating however between the 10mm and 13mm thick belt. What do you think?

well pain, your a tall guy so go with the thick one. i dont believe you can go wrong with that but it will be less flexible. but of course i dont ever use mine so its stiff as hell

[pain4life]

Thanks Born, I found a thread on here and it seemed the 13mm belt was more common among members.

[born0withno0soul]

Thanks Born, I found a thread on here and it seemed the 13mm belt was more common among members.

yea dude i think it will work just fine for you. they are good belts

[pain4life]

Boone, I am unfortunately not going to be able to workout with you on Saturday. I got into a traffic accident today and my back muscles are in tremendous pain. Nothing was broken, but I am still going to take at least 1 week off from lifting so my back can heal.

We will reschedule for a later date. Sorry brother.

[born0withno0soul]

damn dude that sucks, but taking off from the gym is definitely necessary. dont worsen your injuries

[born0withno0soul]

yo pain, you feeling better from that wreck you was in?

[GrayBull]

Hope you heal up quickly, Pain. Glad to hear you're OK though...
Were you on duty when it happened?

[Cyrus The Virus]

Pain, hope you start feeling better soon.

[Boonetang789]

Yo pain take all the time you need and heal. You don't wanna go back to lifting too soon and then hurt yourself real bad. Stretch a lot and heal man. Sorry to hear about your accident man.

[pain4life]

Thanks for the support brothers! Yeah I was on duty when it happened. I was T-boned by another car going at least 40 MPH! My back is feeling better already so I plan to hit the gym at the end of next week. It sure is hard for me not to hit the weights though!

[born0withno0soul]

i understand where your coming from but it stupid to hurt yourself even worse and be out of the game or even work for much longer than necessary

[born0withno0soul]

[born0withno0soul]

the next abc will be a big hit too. whether its 6 people or 26 people i will have a lot of fun

[born0withno0soul]

bumping the thread to keep it up top for promotion

[Boonetang789]

yeah i know im a pussy for missing out on the workout but i am going to miss my other cousin's marriage and i haven't even met the girl, so i figured i should see them before the wedding atleast and tell them good luck.

[GrayBull]

yeah i know im a pussy for missing out on the workout but i am going to miss my other cousin's marriage and i haven't even met the girl, so i figured i should see them before the wedding atleast and tell them good luck.

Good call. I can't really say anything to that...

Born: Any news on the shirts?

[born0withno0soul]

Good call. I can't really say anything to that...

Born: Any news on the shirts?

i want to get everyones address before i get to work on bothering the staff. i dont want them having to orer out several shipments at different times. i only have two so far. there are three more that i need. i need strokin, cyrus, and pains addresses

[GrayBull]

Oh OK...no problem. Was just wandering.
Guys- ADDRESSES!!!!!!

[born0withno0soul]

i still need pain4life and strokins addresses and then i will consult with the chairman about the t-shirts

[Cyrus The Virus]

Do you know which color they will be?

[born0withno0soul]

there is not even a guarantee we will get them. i just know people in the past at other abc's have gotten them. i will do what i can. probably the yellow one. i hope

[Cyrus The Virus]

Hopefully we will get them.

[born0withno0soul]

i think we will, but we havent done the signing of the banner yet. so we will see. but just because we didnt have the banner, we were all repping an animal shirt.

[pain4life]

i still need pain4life and strokins addresses and then i will consult with the chairman about the t-shirts

I sent you a PM with my address and shirt size!

[GrayBull]

Born, I'm pretty sure you have my address...but I'm not sure if I told you my shirt size. So I'm thinking Large will be good.
That is all.

[born0withno0soul]

right on bro. im still waiting on strokins address and then i will see what the deal is with the abc shirts.

[Strokin385]

Sorry guys, I have been super busy of late; my wife's birthday is more like a weeklong celebration! I sent born my info except I didn't include shirt size, XL please!

I'm looking forward to one hell of a back day, it is going to be back right fellas?

Jesse

[Strokin385]

I see a message from Enforcer about signing up on the calendar...I don't see a signup function.

I'm hoping one of my friends attends at least, but we'll see!

[born0withno0soul]

Sorry guys, I have been super busy of late; my wife's birthday is more like a weeklong celebration! I sent born my info except I didn't include shirt size, XL please!

I'm looking forward to one hell of a back day, it is going to be back right fellas?

Jesse

hell yea dude, certainly a back day for me

[born0withno0soul]

Sorry guys, I have been super busy of late; my wife's birthday is more like a weeklong celebration! I sent born my info except I didn't include shirt size, XL please!

I'm looking forward to one hell of a back day, it is going to be back right fellas?

Jesse

i will start talking to the guys and see what we can do about getting some animal shirts for attending the first abc

[pain4life]

I will be doing back day tomorrow for the first time since the accident. Wish me luck!!

[born0withno0soul]

how did the back day go pain? dont push it too hard you need to be healed for the abc event coming up. resting for an injury isnt as bad as it seems. any mass you lose will bounce right back after you start lifting and eating again

[born0withno0soul]

yo grey, we gonna do chest this sunday?

[GrayBull]

We'll see man. I just had my wisdom teeth pulled yesterday (Tuesday) so my face looks like a rodent scavenging for nuts in its mouth. I'll definitely keep you posted though and let you know how I'm feeling...

[born0withno0soul]

yea i have had my wisdon pulled as well. the shit sucks but you should be cool by sunday if you dont get any dry sockets. let me know

[born0withno0soul]

the next abc event is not far around the corner. hope its a big turnout

[GrayBull]

yea i have had my wisdon pulled as well. the shit sucks but you should be cool by sunday if you dont get any dry sockets. let me know

Yeah man...I'll let you know about Sunday on Saturday night. I'll text you or something to make sure you get it. I'm excited to get back in the gym after being out of it for a week. I hate taking time off!!!!

[GrayBull]

the next abc event is not far around the corner. hope its a big turnout

Indeed. Definitely have high hopes for it...
We should be growing from meet to meet.

[born0withno0soul]

so graybull, you think we should contact the gym owner the week before we have the abc event?

[pain4life]

I have been hitting the gym this week and my back is feeling good! Looking forward to the next event!!

[born0withno0soul]

good news pain. i think we will have a good turnout. we need to get everyone who plans on coming posting up in the thread soon

[GrayBull]

so graybull, you think we should contact the gym owner the week before we have the abc event?

Yeah man. I think that would be a smart thing to do...
I'll get in touch with him and let him know when our next meet is.

[GrayBull]

I have been hitting the gym this week and my back is feeling good! Looking forward to the next event!!

Glad to hear you're healing up, man. Hopefully the time off lit a new fire in you...
I know my time off is.

[pain4life]

Taking a week off was great. It gave my muscles time to rest so I could start shocking them again.

[born0withno0soul]

Well boys, i have talked to the chairman of the ABC and sent him the addresses and shirt sizes of everyone who attended the first Colorado ABC. The shirts they give for this promotion is currently out of stock. We just have to wait patiently and they will be sent out as soon as possible.

[born0withno0soul]

Also, the second Colorado ABC event is less than 2 weeks out. Its time to start inviting freinds, family, and co-workers to come have a very painful but fun event.

[pain4life]

The event is only 1 week away!! Looking forward to it!! Where are we going to eat afterwards?

[born0withno0soul]

well i chose last time, so its someone elses turn unless you want to go back and get barbeque again. i dont care because i wont be eating

[GrayBull]

Ted's is still my suggestion...anyone else feel free to chime in with what you'd want.

[born0withno0soul]

thats sounds fine with me. i might actually eat a little wherever we decide to go.

[pain4life]

I vote for Ted's

[GrayBull]

thats sounds fine with me. i might actually eat a little wherever we decide to go.

You eat?... you planning on using it as your cheat meal, or did you end your diet?

[born0withno0soul]

i will use it as a cheat meal. it wont kill me.

[GrayBull]

Good call...

[Cyrus The Virus]

I vote for Ted's also. Are we still going to train back?

[GrayBull]

Yes sir. A back day it will be!...and triceps for me as well.

[born0withno0soul]

everyone got an animal shirt now? we have to take a pic with the banner i have lying around and we also have to sign it so i can mail it back to corporate

[GrayBull]

Yup... mine came in the day after our last meet. I was so pissed and happy at the same time.

[pain4life]

I have some bad news guys. I just remembered that I promised my son that I was going to take him to the zoo on Sunday. With my schedule and all, I don't get to spend enough time with him as it is. I am taking him first thing in the morning so I will try to make the Animal Session, but I may be late.

get your ass up early and wear that kid out quick. dont break promises but you need to be at this abc

[GrayBull]

Haha. While that is an option... I don't think there will be time for it. The zoo doesn't open until what- 9am?
This sucks man. But I understand; if I had a son I'd probably do the same thing. HAVE FUN!

That's two ANIMALS out for tomorrow...

[born0withno0soul]

well graybull, do you have a good digital camera for tomorrow? i hope someone does because i dont have shit

[Cyrus The Virus]

Sorry this is late notice but someone at work called in sick today so I have to go in and cover.

[GrayBull]

Dude...so how many do we have showing up, 3?

Should we just put it off or what?

[dragondad]

We did it with 4. Come on all you Colorado Animals! Lets step it up. Good session today. Lets grow this Colorado chapter. Maybe some pushing from G will help. lol See you guys soon. Lets plan on arms next time.

[born0withno0soul]

i usually workout alone, so working with three others was very motivational. i have fun no matter how many people show. but i know colorado has much more potential, we just need people to be more involved and show greater enthusiasm in these events. great workout for those who showed

[pain4life]

Sorry I couldn't make it today. I hope you guys at a hard-hitting back day. Lets try to make the next event very soon.

[pain4life]

Did you guys sign the banner or are we waiting for the original guys to sign the banner before we send it in?

[pain4life]

I would love to be able to sign it before it is sent to HQ!!!

[born0withno0soul]

hi pain, we will decide when the next event will be soon. im not necessarily waiting on certain people to sign the banner, im waiting on the event to grow so we will have several signatures on the banner. maybe next time will be bigger and we can do it then. so to answer your question i still have the banner and it is unsigned

[born0withno0soul]

So when do you guys want to try this again? i know next time around we must have more participation in the thread and with family and friends. i know a lot of you guys dont hang around here as much as i do, but it wont kill you to stop by once a week and say your alive and coming to the event. This state has potential to grow big, but participation and motivation is needed. who knows, if we grow big enough universal might just send some of the pros out to lift and teach

[dragondad]

I would love to see universal send some pro's. Nice!!! My buddy got pretty motivated yesterday. I had a great workout! It was cool working out with guys with the same kind of interest. Lets say we shoot for June 22nd. I think fathers day is the 15th???

[Boonetang789]

After June 7th i have basically nothing to do (school is done). So i will be there and if a camera is needed i have a decent one to get the job done. I might have a friend or two who would want to come, so i will talk to them about it. Also sometime in June my army buddy is coming back and i know he would LOVE to come and show us some crazy army workout/torture, hahaha.

I'll see when he comes and keep me posted about the date.

[GrayBull]

Indeed it was a great workout. Had a really good time and it was awesome to see two new faces there as well...
Next time all you slackers better show. LOL. We need to get that banner signed and sent off.

Born- I got that guy interested in joining us. The one that lady at Ted's mentioned lifted as well. So hopefully that'll be another new face.

Dragon- Great pull on the deads!

[naturalguy]

Hold on to the banner. We are going to institute a new policy soon regarding them.

[dragondad]

Dragon- Great pull on the deads!

GrayBull, Thanks. It was awesome to workout with others. I travel alot, gets kind of boring working out by yourself. I need you to show me how to get my arms to peak. I've got good size, just can't seem to get them to peak??? Maybe start hammering bi's 2x's a week?

Born, Keep pushing! This chapter will grow. Nice job on the back routine. Thanks again, had a good day. This old guy is still sore. lol

[born0withno0soul]

yo dragon, as far as the arms go, you cant make a peak, all you can do is grow them as much as possible and they will shape themselves. i know graybull helped me with arm growth by getting me to work my arms with fewer sets. i do 9 sets max on my biceps and im seeing better growth than ever. if you do a lot of sets for arms try this method. fewer sets with heavier weight and more intensity

[born0withno0soul]

oh, and age does not have a dman thing to do with the soreness because i am sore as hell too. its been 5 days and im still a little sore. thats the routine i use alot for back day, i guess you guys being around helped me push myself because im usually not that sore.

[born0withno0soul]

So are you guys wanting to do another event the weekend after fathers day?

[pain4life]

So are you guys wanting to do another event the weekend after fathers day?

We definitely have to have another Animal Meeting! That should work for me as far as I know!!

[GrayBull]

GrayBull, Thanks. It was awesome to workout with others. I travel alot, gets kind of boring working out by yourself. I need you to show me how to get my arms to peak. I've got good size, just can't seem to get them to peak??? Maybe start hammering bi's 2x's a week?

Born, Keep pushing! This chapter will grow. Nice job on the back routine. Thanks again, had a good day. This old guy is still sore. lol

Yeah man. I know how it is working out alone... and to some it can really blow.
As far as the arms go- Born has the right idea. You can't shape or bring out a peak in your biceps. They are what they are. All you can do is make them bigger.

[GrayBull]

So are you guys wanting to do another event the weekend after fathers day?

ANY Sunday or Monday is great for me. You know I'll be there...

[born0withno0soul]

yea guys, i think sundays are the best way to go all around for most here on the forvm. lets get some responses on the next date. is a week from fathers day enough time to spread the word and mark the calendar?

[Cyrus The Virus]

That should work for me. The next time I won't answer my phone.

[born0withno0soul]

So what do you guys think about June 22?

[GrayBull]

I'm there.

So far that's three in attendance for sure.

1. Born
2. Cyrus
3. GrayBull

... and a possible fourth if Pain can make it.

[pain4life]

I'm there.

[GrayBull]

1. Born
2. Cyrus
3. GrayBull
4. Pain

[pain4life]

there is not even a guarantee we will get them. i just know people in the past at other abc's have gotten them. i will do what i can. probably the yellow one. i hope

I Just wanted to thank Team Animal for the complimentary Yellow Iconic T-Shirt for attending the first Colorado Animal session. Now I have three of your shirts I can wear with pride!! Thanks again.

[born0withno0soul]

great to hear you got your shirt. i got mine in the mail as well. universal takes care of its people very well. so moving on, are we doing this next abc or what? only 2 people are responding.

[GrayBull]

Awesome!... guess I better go down and check the mail for mine.

[GrayBull]

Dude.... you guys are boring.

[born0withno0soul]

yea i was going to hang around and see if anyone picked up the attitude around here to get these abcs running. hope our last abc is not the best we can do. the first one was great because everyone was communicating and showing some interest

[GrayBull]

Yeah I know. I really hope we can get this thing rolling... there's just no motivation, questions, communication, or just some bullshitting to pass time.
But eh- we'll get it going. Guess it'll just take a bit more time.

In other news: I lifted with Boonetang today and he said he would most likely make the next event! So yeah... just though I'd let you all know.

[Cyrus The Virus]

I will be there. What time will it start?

[born0withno0soul]

i believe 11 is a good time for everyone. some of the guys work nights on the weekends so we need to be in a little early

[born0withno0soul]

11 am that is

[dragondad]

Sorry. I've been on the road and really busy. It sucks trying to find a rec center or gym out of town. I went to a Holiday Inn Express and they called a d.b. stack to 40lbs, a flat bench and a couple of tread mills a weight room. (lol) OH well, I made due.

Anyway, I'm in for Sunday the 22nd at 11am. Where? Same place, or are we going to try one of your guy's 24hr fit? My buddy Mike is in again also as far as we know. So by reading the post we are up to........6?

Whats up with the shirts? I just bought a yellow and a red after our last meeting.

[GrayBull]

Awesome to hear from you guys!
I believe that make seven in attendance thus far...

1. Born
2. Cyrus
3. GrayBull
4. Boonetang
5. Pain
6. Dragon
7. Mike- Dragon's friend

[GrayBull]

Yo born... how's your neck feeling?

[born0withno0soul]

it was sore and stiff as hell for about 2 or 3 days but it went away. just a strained muscle. nothing serious. i have deadlifted since then with no probs. good to see people are joining in and showing some enthusiasm. my favorite gym is the colorado pro where we had it last time. but i have no problem with going wherever

[born0withno0soul]

bumping the thread. colorado deserves the front page

[GrayBull]

Jebus... I go out of town for a few days and this is what I come back to? Not a single post!!!
Lol.

The next meet is getting close. Hope everyone's doing ok.

[pain4life]

So just to confirm the event is on Sunday, 11:00AM, at Colorado Pro Gym? We are working Chest right!

[dragondad]

Chest would be sweet. Seems to be my weak spot. Would love some pointers. Guess I'm just impatient. I think I should be further along, but???

[dragondad]

The next meet is getting close. Hope everyone's doing ok.[/QUOTE]

I'm good and looking forward to it....

[born0withno0soul]

i will certainly be there. hope everyone can make it out.

[GrayBull]

You all know I'm coming! Though my chest sucks donkey nuts... should be a great session.
:)

Pain- have a good father's day??
Dragon- glad to hear it. Can't remember if you're a dad, but if so how was your father's day?

[dragondad]

yep....4 kids, 2 boys 20 & 18 and 2 girls 16 & 12. Good fathers day, thanks for asking. any kids for you????

[pain4life]

I had a great Father's Day!!! Spent a lot of time with my son and wife. My Dad and I even made time to go to the Shooting Range.

[born0withno0soul]

hey guys, i greatly apologize for the bad news but i cant make it in the morning. push some heavy weight forr me

[GrayBull]

Great. Our "coordinator" isn't coming to this meet... is everyone else still in? Really don't feel like going and paying to get in that gym for no one else to show.

[GrayBull]

I had a great Father's Day!!! Spent a lot of time with my son and wife. My Dad and I even made time to go to the Shooting Range.

Awesome man! I'm glad to hear you had such a good day with your family. Can't wait to have that someday...

[GrayBull]

yep....4 kids, 2 boys 20 & 18 and 2 girls 16 & 12. Good fathers day, thanks for asking. any kids for you????

Oh yeah? I come from a family of four... they must have kept you busy all these years.
And no, none for me- not yet. One day though.

[pain4life]

Hey guys, I don't know what happened to everyone, but me and Cyrus were the only guys that pumped weight today at Colorado Pro Gym!! We had a great workout, but missed the rest of you guys!!

Where was everyone??

[dragondad]

Hey guys, I don't know what happened to everyone, but me and Cyrus were the only guys that pumped weight today at Colorado Pro Gym!! We had a great workout, but missed the rest of you guys!!

Where was everyone??

Sorry guys...I meant to send an e-mail this morning...I bought my daughter a car late yesterday and we got 10 miles from the dealer and it fucking broke down...we had box seats for the Crush last night at 6pm and didn't make that either...Mike and I spent the day at Autozone on 68th and Federal installing a new fuel pump in a 99 s-10 blazer...trust me, I would have much rather spent the afternoon with you guys...kind of unusual gray didn't show...do we want to try this again in a couple of weeks?????

[dragondad]

I don't know how you guys feel about the gym and...Born I'm not trying to step on your toes..but I think I found another "Hard Core Gym" on I-225 and Mississippi. I'm going to call him and try and work a deal on admin fee's. I have a problem paying $15.00 for a day when their monthly is $35.00 at Colo Pro. They have all the equip you need at Colo Pro...stuff I have never used but, to be honest, its not the money, its the principle. My gym is $3.75 (maybe $5 for non-locals) for a 1 day deal. So I guess on that note, its a hole in the wall but it seems to have everything I need...if you all want to make a field trip to Idaho Springs (its 18miles, 25min max from the Morrison exit off I-70) I'll still make that call to the other gym...keep you guys posted...

[Cyrus The Virus]

Ya, we missed everyone and were bummed but we still had a good work out.

[GrayBull]

Hey guys... I'm sooooo sorry I wasn't able to make it on Sunday. I hadn't felt good all morning, but I figured once I ate and got moving I'd feel better. Was ready to go, as you can see from the posts that morning, but right after I logged off I made friends with the porcelain princess (my toilet) and spent quality time with her all day. I'm guessing it was the sausage from the night before, but don't understand why it didn't hit me during the night. I even had tickets to the Rockies game for after our meet and had to miss it!
Anyway, I'll save you from the details. But I certainly do apologize guys. This ABC is important to me and I want to see it grow from our continues efforts. The last couple of meets have been sub-par, so lets get serious and make this thing grow. It's really nice to have a big group of friends with the same interest in lifting as you. A group that can come together for support and encouragement. Don't let this die, guys.
I'm always around and always willing to meet up outside of out meets if any of you ever want. This ABC group is about building relationships as well as lifting. The synergism of the two are what make it special.

[GrayBull]

Sorry guys...I meant to send an e-mail this morning...I bought my daughter a car late yesterday and we got 10 miles from the dealer and it fucking broke down...we had box seats for the Crush last night at 6pm and didn't make that either...Mike and I spent the day at Autozone on 68th and Federal installing a new fuel pump in a 99 s-10 blazer...trust me, I would have much rather spent the afternoon with you guys...kind of unusual gray didn't show...do we want to try this again in a couple of weeks?????

Things happen, man... not to worry. I am sorry to hear about what happened though. I've had that happen to a couple used cars, and it blows hard.
I'm most definitely down to have another meet soon. But it needs to be a date that everyone can meet up on. It's not cool to have 8 guys saying they'll show and then less then have make it out. So check your calendars guys- what's looking good?

[dragondad]

How is July 20th or 27th?

[pain4life]

Hey guys we need to start planning the next ABC Event! However, I think we should try and find a cheaper gym so those of us who live far away don't need to pay the high daily fee for non-members. I would join the gym but I live too far away.

[GrayBull]

Those dates should be fine for me. And as far as the gym goes... I know it cost a lot to get in, I've been thinking the same thing myself. That means we need to start searching for another gym that would suite all of our needs. One maybe in the middle of all of us (not two minutes from me and 25miles from Pain), and with a cheaper entry fee. So everyone do their part and start searching for gyms around where you live. Then we can make a list of the best ones and choose together.
Sound good?

Kinda sad that the last post was from Graybull on the 7th. I know its summer time, but have any of you quit working out?? I know I haven't and I would love to get this abc chapter rocking. Would saturadys work better? Friday nights? Anybody have luck on the gym search? I was in Glenwood Springs last Tues. and the owner there knows the owner of that other gym off 225 and miss. and said he would give him a pre-warm up shout. (The Glenwood gym was pretty sweet. I walked in for the first time and they had Animal Pak posters on the wall. NICE!!!) I was supposed to look into it and haven't yet. I am going out of town tom and will be back fri. I'll try to get something rolling. COME ON YOU GUYS!!!

Yes. It's very sad...
I know I'm still working out, but it doesn't seem to be that way for many others. Or at least not together with this whole ANIMAL shindig. It's cool though- not for everyone I guess. I'm still around, though, if anyone ever wants to get together and lift.

[dragondad]

Let me find a date that works and I would like to get together and lift again. I'll grab Mike and we can meet somewhere. I'm going to take the boat out next weekend but I think...the week after is looking pretty good. I'll keep you posted. I'll be out of town Mon-Fri next week so e-mails might be sparattic.

[GrayBull]

Awesome, man. Thanks for the update... just keep me posted and we'll be sure to get together soon.
Have fun on the water!

[pain4life]

I would like to get together again for another lifting session. Has anyone heard from Born? It is so strange that he has not posted something on this website for several weeks. I hope everything is ok.

[GrayBull]

Yeah, he's fine.
We're trying to get something worked out on when we will meet up next. I'll post as soon as more is decided.

Life going OK for you Pain?

[pain4life]

Yeah, he's fine.
We're trying to get something worked out on when we will meet up next. I'll post as soon as more is decided.

Life is wonderful. How is life treating you? Lets pick a day to meet up so we can get lifting again soon!! I will not be able to lift Aug 23-30 because of work-related obligations. Let me know where and what day you guys were thinking would work for the next session.

[Strokin385]

Hey guys! Sorry for the long hiatus! I didn't make it to the second lift and forgot to check back in from there. I don't receive any email updates from the site unless I get a PM so feel free to PM me if I'm gonna miss out on an event. Again, sorry for the long time away, I had a great time at the first lift.

Two thoughts, the fees at Colorado Pro are just too much. I'm sure you've all heard it before but I'm just flat busted right now. I would also be cool with doing an early workout on a weekday too...easier to fit into the schedule before work because that's my usual lifting schedule.

[born0withno0soul]

well boys its good to see you all continuing to show interest in this event. i have spent some time away for awhile but i will start logging onto the forum again. Its time to get things rolling and drop the bullshit.

August 24 is a setup date for our event. 11 am should suffice. you guys dont want to go to the colorado pro gym then let me know whats up.

I want as many people there as possible... especially if they're wanting to make it out. It's been so long since we had a good meet, i think we can either push it forward or move it back to accommodate for Pain's job. What do you guys think?

I'm glad to hear things are going so well, man. Life has been treating me pretty good as well. Just been dealing with some issues with my left knee lately though... will be setting up an MRI appointment tomorrow (doctor's orders) to make sure nothing's seriously wrong- since all of my tendons and ligaments seem fine.

Dude, it's GOOD to hear from you. I was wondering what happened to you after that first meet. Born had said he saw you sometime afterward at 24 but we never heard anything...

Things going OK with the job and everything? I feel you on pinching pennies.

And we're working on the gym situation.

[born0withno0soul]

come on boys, you want this to happen then make it happen.

[Strokin385]

I did see Borne at the Parker/Quincy location a while back, I totally forgot about that. I think I saw you the other day at the Tamarac locaiton but I was in the middle of a lift and didn't see where you went, LOL!

The job is good, my wife lost hers about a year ago and we've been whittling away at savings. She found a new one but the budget needed to be adjusted to accommodate her decreased pay. I think I will be getting a second job to makeup the difference and get to eating as much as I'm used to. It's been NOTHING but protein shakes, chicken, rice, and spaghetti. Need a little change but tilapia isn't as cheap as chicken!

Hey bro, can I get you to email me a picture of that 500# squat and the leg press stacked out. I'm gonna PM you my email addy. Thanks!

I am glad to see we have some activity here again. I thought it was going to me and Graybull for awhile. Ok. The general concensus is that Colorado Pro is sweet but expensive. Where does everybody else lift? Seems like 24hr for some of you. How much is a drop in there? My gym is only $5.00, but, I am sure you guys are not up for Idaho Springs. I'm with Graybull on getting everybody we can there. As far as I know, I'm good for the 17th, 24th or 31st.

[pain4life]

Where does everybody else lift? Seems like 24hr for some of you. How much is a drop in there? My gym is only $5.00, but, I am sure you guys are not up for Idaho Springs. I'm with Graybull on getting everybody we can there. As far as I know, I'm good for the 17th, 24th or 31st.

Pain, since you're working on the 24th... how do the other dates DD mentioned sound? Either one of them work for you (17th, 31st)?
The rest of you answer as well so we can determine which date would be the best to try and meet.
Either is fine with me as far as I know.

If I remember correctly... I believe me, Strokin, Born, and your friend Mike all lift at 24. That would leave you, Pain, and Cyrus (who I think is at Fitness 19 or Anytime Fitness) to come to come and pay the fee at 24. I believe it's only 5 bucks to get in for the day, and I have one more free pass for anyone who wants it.

If that is the case, I'm down with that, we just need to pick a central location.

Welcome aboard, man. It's good to have another new member...
Our next meet will hopefully be sometime later this month. We'll keep details posted in this thread as they come in. Feel free to post, comment, ask questions or just shoot the shit.

You ever want someone to lift with feel free to let me know. I'm also a member at 24.

I'm good with that, the 17th. What are we going to train? Need more feedback from everyone else.

Hey Gray, Mike is a Better Bodies member. So If you can check that drop in rate at 24. I would prefer to pay $5.00 than $15.00. We can get the same job done I'm sure.

I thought 24 was 12 per day or even more. Whatever happened to the gym at DU being an option?

I'm going to find out later today, when I go lift, how much it costs visitors at 24.
And DU is no longer an option... as Boone, the guy that attends there, is studying abroad for the semester.

I'll report back later tonight with what they say at 24.
