Excuse me as my geography of Ohio is not great. I know we have/had some Ohio sessions. I have an offer from an employee of this gym in Cincy:

They said they would be happy to host an event.

I Have been checking with Cincinnati, Dayton, and Toledo on getting some sessions off. We don't seem to have a good amount of members in the area. I am hoping the Arnold will help get the word out and we can get some sessions of in these cities as well!

I just touched base with Adrenaline Sports & Fitness. The gym has offered to host a A.B.C. session for Cincinnati.

Do we have any Cincinnati Animals that are interested in attending?

Thanks,

Powerstation Gym in Middletown is a possibility, it about 30 min north of cincy. I now the owner real well and we got some big boys in there, more along the lines of powerlifters. We have a myspace page with pics of the gym on it. I can't remember the url but just go to MySpace.com and search powerstation in middletown ohio. Everyone loves it when I where my shut the fuck up and train shirt.

I am working with gyms in Cincinnati, Dayton , Youngstown, and possibly Toledo to start pulling some sessions after the Arnold. Member numbers are weak in these areas and hopefully the Arnold Classic will add new member numbers to the member dry areas. Stay posted and in the mean time get some like minded hardcore individuals to sign on the forum. Ohio Animals are hardcore and are serious about our reputation.

Youngstown is more than likely the first area I am targeting in March.

*** I live in Pittsburgh and make the drive for all Ohio sessions...

hey brothers,
i am a new found cincinnati animal. previously a detroit animal but moved for a job. currently i live in the sharonville area and i am looking for a quality gym that is close to home. you guys know of any or of a place where i could train?

MAUL
08-11-08, 9:16 pm
i have never trained at any of the gyms up that way. I live on the west side of cincinnati and have only trained at Bally's and Paramount fitness in the past. I now train only in my basement. but anyway i recommend you do a googlemaps.com search or local.com search and look for something that fits you there. most places will give you a free week to try it out before you sign a contract.

Just to clarify (sorry Zip), they can technically still come if they haven't registered before Saturday. I just wouldn't want anyone to think they can't come check it out. We know that after they are there, they will register, especially if they are like minded with the passion that we all have for ANIMAL.

Oxford is about an hour drive to the gym.. its located at..
5130 Crookshank Rd.
Cincinatti, OH 45238..

I did a quick direction search and it shows to take US-27 S all the way into Cinci (17.7 miles), run it till you see W Fork Rd, turn right on W Fork Rd
W Fork Rd will turn into Montana Ave after about a mile, stay on it 2.4 miles until you come to Boudinot Ave, turn left onto Boudinot Ave, remain on it 1.5 miles
thats where Boudinot Ave curves slightly to the right and turns into Crookshank Rd and the gym will be on the right.. Paramount Fitness Center

the trip or not myself.. talking about waiting till the last minute.. hopefully he's just out at the Mountain and left his phone in the lodge and will

We had a great turnout and I met alot of new ANIMALS. If I wasn't able to meet you one-on-one, I apologize, just make sure you hit me up at the Cage in C-Bus.

We hope to have the next one in June so mark your calendars! Stay in touch and keep training like ANIMALS!

Hey,
I have been a member of the forum since the start and a long time animal user. I was wondering what needed to be done to get involved with the cincinnati abc. I am really interested in training with some of you. I currently live in west chester and train at urban active. hit me up on here or you can also drop my an email at neo5_0@hotmail.com

that would be awesome. I would love to be able to train with everyone. i missed the abc event at the arnold. i was there friday in the cage but had to return to the area to work at my department. if there is something going on, i would love to get in on it. plus if people are interested in a gym, i could always try to urban active in west chester and see what they would say.

hey brother, like Redleg said just keep your eyes peeled on this thread, bodybabe10 and jjhoffard are on the ball and this chapter is going to be
HUGE.. big year for Ohio and ABCs in 2010.. we are all in the works now of getting something set up, we'd like to get it all situated incase anyone
wants to travel to the other chapters together and such.. ill send you a PM as well as post on here just to make sure you know next time Cinci has an ABC..
the last session was held at Paramount Fitness Center which is amazing and has a solid crew there, so when the time comes we will see what the options
are and what everyone wants to do..

sounds good, most of the time ABCs are held on Saturdays usually around Noon - 2PM we allow usually 2 hours for lifting and then we determine where to
eat and that could take at least an hour depending on how fast you eat and how much you want to converse with everyone lol..

BBQ / PWO Meal to follow....

Gym Entrance Fee... $10 if you are staying for eats, $5 if not....

We are going to have a "Relay for Life" theme (Ricky's sister in law passed from cancer January 7, 2010) and they are having a team (Body Shop) in the local relay.

I like Fitworks in Forest Park. I do deads in there and nobody complains but I don't let the weights bounce off the floor. I think they still have a $15 month to month deal. The dumbbells go up to 125 or 130. My one complaint is all the jackballs who refuse to re rack the weights.

Thanks man, I will check both those out. I dont mind to travel a bit to get to a good gym that doesnt give me the stink eye about lifting heavy. Its not that I try to drop the weights, but I have found that I can hurt myself more trying to "gently" set down 415 rather than let it hit, lol. The yoga members really dont like me, I think it affects there meditation...

My May is pretty wide open right now. Speaking for my big brother though, his weekend off days are the 7th, 8th, and the 14th. I'd say between noon to 2 is a good start time and beyond paramount fitness I don't know of a good place. I'll look around too Z.
