Yo fellas. It looks like we're gonna be hookin up a gathering of the freaks in Delaware. Gonna be at The Training Center, the best FUCKIN gym in Delaware. As hard core as it gets.

Right now we're lookin at the 26th of January and its gonna be a warm-up for The Cage, lol. I know myself, McFly, G and little B are there for sure. And Powerfreak and NPC Chicka know the gym well so they should be there as well.

Who else is gonna show?????

After talking with B.A.M and talking to Big Al damn near everyday.....this event is going to be sick. The east coast is full of the nations top level powerlifters and bodybuilders, many who frequent or are within a short drive of The Training Center....many will be in attendence, mark my word.

Mark your calanders, get your permission slips signed, request off from work, get a babysitter...do what you have to do......it will be worth it

oh a food, i know that is on everyone mind...well at least mine! all you can eat sushi is right around the corner or my favorite burger joint "5 guys".

I talked to one of the owners of The Training Center last night. He is excited about hosting the DE gathering. He asked how the Jersey one went and who showed up....and he is hoping to have a packed house of Animals and wants to see some bad ass lifts....lets not dissapoint!!!!

There is a pizza/sub shop right next door, I'll have to talk to them but I'm sure they could hook us up with a nice spread afterwards...hell during if needed LOL!!!!! but there are also a few other places nearby

I'm not in YET, but after talking to INTENSITY yesterday in NYC and reading through the thread, I'm gonna see what I can do. Looks like I've got plenty of time to get my ducks in row.
Mapquest says it's about 4 hours. We'll see how the weather is in Late January. I guess I'll know when the day gets closer.

Tiny
12-16-07, 1:24 pm
The Training Center is the kind of place where you've already got a pretty sick amount of muscle frequnting the gym as it is. Like one of their gym shirts reads "This ain't no pretty boy gym." I've never seen Jack (one of the owners) looking anything less than "jacked" and I think he's got a ripped mid-section 365 days a year. Hey, Al, is Tommy going to be around? I haven't seen him in a good while. Anyway, truly this is going to be a real freak show that nobody should have to miss.

Hoomgar

I am seriously looking forward to it. I will have started my Test cycle by then. Hopes are that my strength will be up a lot more by then.

McFly
12-17-07, 10:45 am
it will be a lot of fun Hoomgar, I guarantee

Tiny - I am sure Tommy will be there, I think he trains Saturdays anyway.

McFly
12-18-07, 7:55 am
over the weekend the training center got a fresh coat of paint looking all purdy....but still the same place with chalk dust everywhere, 185 dumbbells in the corner calling a few of you Animals and a monolift waiting to see some unhuman squats!!!

I'll have almost 4 weeks of my Test cycle down before this event so I am excited to see if I can get my bench up over 200. Right now my free weight barbell bench record is only 170. I need my strength to come up. Really looking forward to lifting with all you guys here and learning from everyone. I'm a total green horn to the lifting world. Lots to learn.

I hurt my left elbow/upper forearm Tuesday somehow in the gym. It was pretty bad, I could not pull up my own shorts or tie my shoes. Couldn't write or even scratch my head. As of this AM it feels a lot better. I can use the arm and for the first time in 2 days I can type with it again. I cannot lift a glass of water with it however. I am hoping to recover from this in time to still meet or even beat that bench goal :) Here is to healing quick!

awesome! I know there will be a few more powerlifters from the area on board, breaking in new gear and moving some serious poundage.

There will also be another photographer donating 100% of their time behind the camera for us and so Juggernaut can get his workout in too!!! this event will be well documented that's for sure!

I'll be bringing a couple of friends with me (besides McVicar), one's an IFBB guy who broke well into the top 10 at a couple shows this past year (friggin guy gets insane gritty hard), and the other is a pro wrestler who I train with frequently.

I'll keep it a secret just for the suspense factor - he's shorter than me but he crams so much muslce on his frame that it's sick and he's got that polished, finished look down. I like good guys, though, so believe me, he's a good dude, a family guy even.

Tiny and I went to the training center on firday to train legs. I was looking forward to squatting, being that this gym is (was) one of the last to have a mono-lift.
As soon as I walked into the back it was obvious that the unthinkable had happened, THEY GOT RID OF THE MONO-LIFT!!!
Not only does that fuck up the workout for the day but also what I had planned for the Animal session on the 26th, and of course there is also that a other small thing looming in the near future, THE CAGE!
Once again my training is fucked up as one more gym, one of the last "hard core" gyms, bends and breaks to conform to the personal training, fat house wife, panty waste BULLSHIT commercialism that we have all come to know only too well.
One more gym down the proverbial shitter.
We will still be at the workout on the 26th, and I am talking with some people to try and get the fucking thing put back in, but I aint counting on it.

Please please please PLEASE tell me that this is NOT true???!!!
This could mean the other unthinkable - no powerlifting meet at the Training Center this spring. I can't put on a power meet without two monolifts...well I could, but it would not be the same...
Last time I was there, a few months ago, they had moved it to the back corner of the leg room, but it was still there.

Powerfulkate
12-30-07, 2:07 pm
Just got word from the owner of the Training Center that yes, indeed, the monolift was taken out... :(
Had to accomodate paying members who never used it...substituted another squat rack instead.

GONE! They replaced it with a lovely power rack, right next to THE OTHER POWER RACK!
Think it probably has to do with them Moving Freddy's personal training business in, the mono-lift would just be too SCARY for the "normal people"

Yeah, I love "Jack," he's a righteous as they come but no question about it that this "unification" is going to prove more viable, financially, but it will change the entire demeanor of the place. It was kind of twilight-zone-esque Friday evening by the time we finished up. I'm no Nostrademous but watch any minute for the mood music to be Top 40/R&B based.

This sux. As a new lifter I was looking forward to my first visit to an old school hard core gym and getting to lift with you guys old school style. I have never even seen a monolift in person. Only pictures on the internet. Our gyms here at my area are all already what you say this one is working to become. We have a lot of nice equipment but it is all the new stuff. Nothing old school like a monolift or any of the equipment I have seen Dorian Yates use in some of his older videos and training sessions. So now what? Are we still on for Delaware or are you guys considering finding another Gym for this event?

Glad to hear it. Maybe the ABC will bring a little class back to the place and hopefully the gym owner will see it. There has to be more lifters out there that think like this than just the Animals? Maybe we should all take turns calling him up and say we heard he removed the monolift... wth is up with that? LOL!

If he gets enough of it in his ear maybe he'll realize he made a mistake.

Big Al
12-31-07, 12:13 pm
Tiny,you know it wasn't Jacks idea to remove the mono-lift.The issue here is that there are two (maybe three)owners now and one(maybe two) of them only cares about money!!!
I'm not sure what Freddies roll is exactly but I know he destroyed his own gym now he's at our's.??????
I really don't think(or hope) that Jack will let it get too much different.He is one of us,from the old school at heart.

Oh it is defintely going to be awesome. See, there were two different gyms somewhat in near proximity - The Training Center, and Gold's on Kirkwood (Feddie's gym). You basically trained at one or the other and both seemed to have sufficient numbers. Freddie is a former powerlifter and now national level bodybuilder, so he himself throws down with some serious iron BUT the business man in him knows well enough how to rake in the bucks with a gym, and his personal training business is the biggest and arguably most popular in Delaware. And when his place was packed with his trainers working clients all evening, that sort of permeates the gym and sets the tone - 'cause it is a huge training enterprise. Now he is closing his gym but bringing his training busness and staff to The training Center. It's going to have some influence there, and no doubt it is going to bring in a whole ton of additional business and income. Of course, any of you guys craving hard-core, old school Yates' type dungeon training, stop by anytime and catch a workout with me or us at my place. My place is damned near too hard core for me, especially with the cold weather and wood burning stove heater situation. (Oh, and we have a mon-lift, too and a Metal Militia bench, and all the right bars).

12-31-07, 12:43 pm
we can just hope things won't get out of control.....

but no worries the DE session will be the biggest baddest ABC event to date and even if there can't be some huge squats, i know there will be some big benching and sick deads shaking the place and just tons of weight moving all over the gym. We did acquire another 1000 or so pounds of 100 pound plates and more 45's then we know what to do with.

I have an extra monolift come in for the platform, but I like to have the one in the leg room for warm-ups. Jack said he'd bring it back for the meet...which, by the way, mark your calendars, will be on Saturday MAY 10. The third annual Delaware Power Classic, and it should be the best one yet!
I heard from authority that one of that area's hardcore powerlifting gyms will be closing its doors soon, won't say which one because I don't know if he's put the word out yet( he does have a monolift). The Training Center could certainly get most of the powerlifters from that gym...if they only had a monolift...

Wait, what? Are you saying this event has been moved from Jan 26 to May 10 bro? Or when you say "for the meet" are you talking about "The third annual Delaware Power Classic"? I am thinking you mean the second one there but want to make sure.



...."if they only had a monolift"....i have a feeling we'll be hearing that for a while :(


LOL! Actually, that is kind of funny. I still say we need to take turns placing anonymous calls asking them is they have a monolift there... pffft! LOL! When they say no we took it out then just go "oh, thats too bad" and hang up. ;)

I will more than likely be doing this meet. Just gonna have to use the mono-lift at the house.
Guess I shouldn't be bitching too much about the training center taking out their lift when I have one about 50 feet from where I sleep.lol
It is just an issue with the cold(which I think we resolved) and having enough people to spot.
I am looking to get my squat back to around 1100, and It requires that I have spotters to operate the lift, and side and back spot.
Just have to wait and see.

I'll also have to give the DPC it's own thread here on the Animalpak forum - soon.
For now, just remember - Saturday May 10, 2008 at the Training Center - the 3rd annual Delaware Power Classic.

This should be roughly half way through my training for the Cage, so the weight should be getting fairly heavy by this point, probably in the 800-900lbs. range.
So I hope there will be alot of you there to cheer me on and make me push as hard as possible.

After seeing Tiny yesterday at the end of his workout looking like his muscles where going to explode the ABC may never be the same! I'm already putting the DE session up for ABC session of the year 2008.

also, CarrieAnnSimmons trained with us yesterday and is turning up the heat something sick, the girl don't play!

I just looked back down the list again mark my word THIS WILL BE THE SICKEST ABC SESSION EVER! and there are still people coming not yet on that list..... if you haven't got your permission slip signed, babysitter lined up or called off work get your shit together.

i am pretty sure my tool box can get mistakenly left near the monolift "i don't know what you're talking about Skip, bolted back down????" LOL

After talking to Skip, I kinda got the impression that if we have enoughh requests to keep the mono-lift there he may go for it.
Problem was that it was just sitting unused and taking up space..

I am hoping to put up at least a little weight at the workout, and maybe give some people an education on what the mono-lift is and why it is such a great piece of equipment.
Most have never even seen one before, let alone had the opportunity to use it.

if a few powerlifters made their home @ the training center and used it i could imagine them keeping it. other then meets I don't think I ever saw it used, maybe once in the past year? otherwise I guess we'll have a second squat rack for personal trainers to have people do barbell curls superset with box jumps in. WTF

19 days.....counting down.
This is looking to be one hell of a gathering.
With the Cage less than 2 months away and the Delaware session loomig on the horizon, it is all I can do to focus on anything else.
People at work are starting to notice a change, they have never experienced me in pre contest mode, which is pretty much the gear I am in, which means the line between calm and kill is getting thinner by the day.
People are learning to keep their distance.
These Animal workouts are what keep me sane, at least by my standards. Most think I have already lost it. If they only knew.

I've seen him squat (something over 1000) in the summer sun, on the back of 18 wheeler in the middle of a picnic park.....so are you seriously going to miss this????

Oh yeah, the place is really hot (The Training Center) - when you got that much freak factor all in one place, the workouts are going to deliver. And by now I'm sure the mono-lift is back in place since Jack was straight up determined that he wanted it back too, and, he is The Man, afterall. Don't miss this one, kids - this is going to be a freakshow and we are throwing down. You got physiques as big as anybody's on bodybuilders strong as powerlifters AND you got powerlifters stronger than god in the house. I've been doing legs on Saturdays with Powerfreak, and who knows why but right now he is crazy fucking strong, probably as good as his best maybe better, so I think he's got a grand in him fairly easily if we can get enough animals in there to make some noise and get behind him. I'd really like to see a new record out of him sometime this year, and he can do it.

Masters Nationals bodybuilding July 19th -
Powerlifting...well, I have my thoughts geared toward one meet, but I'm not saying publicly yet - I've had some problems with leg pain that prevented me from squatting for several months recently... :( I'm doing alot of nerve manipulation stuff, working through it, I've squatted a few times in the past few weeks, it's getting better, but still a bit of an obstacle. I was supposed to do the national Raw Unity meet down in Florida the same day that this Animal "gathering" is taking place, but because of those leg pain problems I wouldn't be able to bring my best, so I decided to pull out. So lucky you guys are blessed with my presence instead! ;)

Any of you guys from the board who are coming out to this event, feel free to hit me up and we can do a typical "Back" routine. I would just LOVE it if some of the guys who think deads don't need to be first on back day would "come on down" as Bob Barker says. My partner, Kenny and I just did "Back" at The Training Center (of course) a couple hours ago and we were both fucked up by the completion of our deads and really had to push ourselves to continue on through the remainder of the workout. So I think I'm doing "Back" on the 26th. Hopefully, some fellow Animals would like to see if there's much difference in how we all train - I'll put my money where my mouth is (so to speak). Just be forewarned that it ain't gonna be purdy.

any word if OX is coming down?


so we got Powerfreak doing his thing on the monolift, getting ready for the Cage and as tiny called it another world record waiting to be broken in 2008...

...Tiny, putting the long back workout threads to rest and showing whoever wants to hang how he built the bulletproof wall he calls a back!

Everytime i see G Diesel and his boys at an ABC session the man is killing it

....Tek and Skiba's crew will be hitting it hard like they did in Jersey....

i think this is BigAnt's first ABC appearance in full "offseason" mode...should be exciting..

...Punisher is going for 405 on the bench...

....I know Powerfulkate don't play around


DAMN

damn there is going to be some fucking energy AND KNOWLEDGE in the training center on the 26th....if you don't get a killer workout and all your diet and training questions answered here....it's your own damn fault.....i am pumped!

There won't be a shortage - lots of weight there, and like I said, I've got sixty Ivanko 45's just down the road at my house. I hope Gene's coming - I'm going to call him this evening; Gene's the shit, one of my main apple scrapples! I hope a lot of the beginner and intermediate animals can make it, too, 'cuz it isn't often at all that you get a collection of people like this in the same place all training at the same time. This is shaping up to be an East Coast Mecca type gathering!

It's pretty much the same as listed in my "What's Tiny Know?" thread - a lot of deadlifting, a lot of sweating. I figure I should do something so Big Al actually cathes me training once.
It will be fun - we'll sweat and bleed together; some genuine "Animal" bonding. I'll bring a really nasty knurled bar so we can drag it up our shins and really rip some skin off.

You guys need to figure out a way to get a live feed from this session....it's a library of knowledge all under one roof....one training/seminar that I wish wasn't so far away and could get to.

about 4 more more days til this goes down....

just looking back at all those names and i either know them or can do a little search and find an article or journey pertaining to that person and every single one is a god damn Animal! everyone has a goal they are working towards, putting their time in, and or willing to help out some of us younger Animals in the game with their years of knowledge.

this is going to be one memorable day.

I'm going to be filming too so it is looking like I will move something heavy, not Powerfreak heavy but something in the 600 deadlift range. I KNOW Brian's got a grand's worth of squat in him, his strength is right on time as demonstrated effortlessly last week. Yeah, this is going to be the shit. I know we got a lot of freaks attending - I'm actually hoping we get a good turn out from the youngblood crowd; they are the future and these gatherings are really valuable opportunities which did not exist when I was coming up. You can read about it and hear about it all day long but here's the chance to jump in the mix right alongside somebody who has been where you are and is securely where you dream of ending up - physique wise. We've got a nice mix of different style builds all with plenty of experience and knowledge and willing to throw down right alongside of you. So come on out this Saturday and be about it with all of us and everybody else!
