Hey brothers?

I am going to Southbeach on the 28th of August until Sept 4th. I was curious if there are any Animals that would like to meet up at there gym and lift!? I want to meet some more brothers of Iron from different places and pump some iron!

I will be staying on Ocean Dr. In Southbeach so lemme know!

If so, where and when? I'm looking to get "back on track" after third knee surgery and hit the weights again, but these "health clubs" are the last place I want (or need) to be. Too much fluff and distraction. I'm looking for a serious place that opens EARLY (maybe 5am) and closes late.

go under The Board and do a SEARCH there. That is where all the local Animals get together to train!

I second this.....there is a FL one, but orlando is a big ass drive for us. I would definately like to get a Miami chapter going.....I know me and Nulllogik would definately be in for that.

I'm all for a South Florida/Miami area ABC chapter... But the turnout has to justify starting it up. We need to have a few solid chapters per state based on region. Where are all of our Miami Forvm members? Peace, G

Does anyone know of a old school hardcore bodybuilding in the sw miami dade area ? i am sick and tired of gyms like L.A.FITNESS and BALLY'S it really sucks to go workout at those gyms you know old ladies , bunch of high school kids who don't use the machines just talk around them , breathing my air and when you hit the floor with the barbell after a rep of heavy deadlifts evrybody stares at you like saying... gross , fuck i am sick of places like that , so if anyone knows of a hardcore gym in the area . please let me know guys .

Well I just recently signed up at the 24hr Fitness Shaq, brand new gym, has pretty much everything and its my new home I love it and couldn't ask for anything else. Its basically like LA Fitness and the people there are great. As far as a hardcore gym cult I can't really think of one, but I went to 24hr Fitness over from The Fitness Station down south and its a pretty small gym, somewhat hardcore, but I got annoyed with the people there and I just needed a change.

So lets really see if we can get this goin' guys, we can seriously do it.

Talk with the owner or manager of that Fitness Shaq and see if it would be alright if a bunch of us met up down there on a saturday...

It would be a good for an S. FLA. animal leg day...

Then we could find some place to eat nearby hopefully.

EXUB
12-17-07, 11:39 am
the gold's I go to ins';t that big. Its simple with its weight section and then 2 rows of cardio machines. A hardcore gym is Porky's but I don't have a membership there. Which 24hr are you talking about? Coconut grove?

Pick a date and a gym and then roll with it. The event will grow, I know some people who are interested and we will promote it.

ya guys...but i cant think of any hardcore gyms...i go to a boxing gym with a full workout section...

Deadlift
12-17-07, 3:29 pm
I dont think it'd be a problem, I'm pretty sure we'd have to pay a guest fee or something of like $10, its like that at most gyms which I dont mind doin' if we lift somewhere else. I'll lift at any of the gyms, LA, Porkys, 24hr Fitness, doesn't matter to me. Btw its the new 24hr Fitness Shaq in Cutler Bay that I'm talkin' about, its down south, thats where im a member. So what do you guys think? I'll lift at any Miami gym...What do you guys prefer as far as a time?..Once again I'm down for w/e time.

Nulllogik
12-17-07, 4:53 pm
Saturdays the best day for me, and i start back school the second week in Jan (i think). I go all week...

Are all these gyms south miami or more towards the north?

They're more South Miami, but if you guys want we can do a North Miami, whatevers best for everyone I'm up for it.

Id be more than happy to. Only problem is that I live in Tallahassee as well as Miami. Im in Tally from Jan til April...then in Miami from April til August...then in Tally from August til december and then repeat. I mean, depending on how frequent we meet Im sure I could still manage.......so Ill toss my name in the hat if worst comes to worst.

I am willing to take up the spot for coordinator of the Miami Chapter.

However, I need to know how many people would be interested. We can do this by getting a list of names. I can have you guys come train at my gym, all I need to talk to is the owner. And finally we need to set up a date beneficial for everyone. How about a Saturday in January?

Spoke to the owner, he said anyone would be able to train for free as long as they have a local Miami I.D with them. He said I can bring as many guests, they just need to have a local ID and its fine. Is Sunday fine with everyone also? I can do Saturday's but that requires me to take the day off work. If not then Saturday is fine. The location of the gym is the following

3737 S.W. 8th Street

Im at the Powerhouse on federal and 49th (a little north of sample). Malloy's trains at La Fitness (Globo Gym). If you want to try it out, it would be a pleasure liftin with ya. Ill talk to the owner if youre lookin for something down/up this way.

I don't think that would workout seeing as some people will be out of town or traveling due to the holidays.


The owner didn't specify how local the guests would have to be. But if anything you would be paying 10 dollars at most.

naturalguy
12-31-07, 6:49 am
You guys don't all have to train the same bodypart in fact that would make it pretty difficult. We've done many ABC sessions and everyone does their own workout or some guys train in small groups but it's about training in the same gym with like minded individuals. Encourage each other, spot each other, meet and talk shop with other Animals. Take some great pictures and build Miami. Your on the ground floor of a movement.

Everyone that attended was very friendly and more than willing to help one another. No ego, no posers, just people looking to improve themselves and have some fun. It seems that we will have a solid foundation of people to represent the ABC in Miami. It was the first session of the Miami Chapter and I believe it's just going to improve. Outstanding.

thats awesome bro.

Actually, we have EXUB's Gold's already, or maybe Jwill's. As for a date? how does in maybe 2 weeks sound? on the 25th precisely. that way we all can have a good two weeks more or less to prepare, and open up our schedules. Time can be whatever, probably around 12 or so, sounds reasonable I think

Food, well, we've got LOADS of places to eat. I know where EXUB's Gold's gym is at, theres some places around there. Heck, whatever you guys want. we can all go to a buffet and eat like animals haha.

Do I need an animal shirt? I'll order one if so. or is that what you mean about the package?

anyways we just need to get some other animals in this. talk to people guys, send pm's, spread the word. there are some pretty big ABC chapters around the US. We're relatively small here. We gotta grow. thats what our great sport is about, whether it's mass, or strength(both?).

I work at Bally in Southland Mall, but I also train at the 24 -Hour with my buddy!! They got heavier DB and better leg equipment! Let me know, I'll send a pass to come lift with me. You? Where do you lift at? I don't even know of any other gyms in my area

I go to the 24 by Southland Mall. It's right across from where I work and my buddy works there so I can go lift for free, then go rigtht to work! It's nice to lift in one gym and work at another...I couldn't do both without being bothered.

When I go to Colombus for the Arnold, my buddy and I lift at the Power Shack; ever heard of it? It's a bad-ass gym away from all the craziness down by the Convention Center/downtown.

my schedule for work has been hectic.

If we get interest of over 10 people then we can have the event.
