After talking to other people I've realized a need for another Animal Chapter. That is why MattyH7688 and myself want to start an Erie chapter for the ABC.

Who is up for it!?

That's what's great about the ABC Chapters... When different ones get together. In the future, we'll hopefully have larger, regional events, then the main national one in Columbus around The Cage.

yeah, I'm hoping with this kind of being in between Pittsburgh and New York that we can get some people from both. Matty will be getting a lot of people from erie as well.

I'm down. Unfortunately, I am done with school May 8th, and I won't be back until late august. I can try and get something started in terms of people, then we can make it happen in the fall. Until then, I'll have to help out with something on LI :)

Hey NRK5014.

I have been following your posts/desires to start something on LI as far as an ABC chapter.

I live in Queens (on the border of LI) and will be more than willing to assist you in gathering something up!

I know NG stated some "rumblings" in Syosset at Powerhouse Gym (or w/e it's called nowadays), so maybe we can make the "final touches" and get it going!

I am going to the NY ABC meeting on May 10, i'll chat it up with him and see if we can get this started!

I used to live in Williston Park, which is realllllll close to queens, but we finally got a house out in East Patchogue, so now I'm kinda far...lol. Either way, Syosset is like a 30-40 minute ride, and it will be well worth it. I've heard nothing but good things about the gym. I'll be home from school May 9th, Vacation from the 12-16, then I'm back and ready to fuck shit up in the gym. Are you a member at bb.com also?? If you want to shoot me a PM here or there it's cool.

Whats up Animal, just got the word from kcinnitram91 you will be rolling to Erie, and I along with matty are close friends and live nearby

Some Suggestions I can give you for a gym would be anywhere in the Edinboro area (20 minutes south of erie)

Or in Erie we have a very nice gym in Natilus , the gym I go to is small but we could maybe arrange things at a local YMCA there are quite a few aroud the area, as well as a few new gyms opening up. Also there are some university gyms nearby such as Penn State Behrend which is quite extensive and I know a lot of people that go there so i could get in contact with them ( again right off the highway )

I could get in contact with the new gyms and see if they would not mind some "Animals" rolling up and showing the newbies how to really lift some weights.

As far as a place to eat afterwards i work at a fine dining restrautn that is right off the highway that seats over hundreds, so I could arrange things with my kitchen and head manager about eating there. The choices are very good, Rice, Chicken, Beef, Steaks, Tilapia, Salmon, Steamed Veggies, Fresh Fruit.. etc you name it we got it.

Let me know what you guys think..

If there is anything I can do to help contribute let me know. I would love to train like an animal.

Yeah dude, my gym's pretty big. The whole conditioning area contains a track, tons of cybex and nautilus machines, a bunch of cardio equipment, and a large weight area. The weight area is spacious, around 1,000 sq. ft., and IT HAS THREE SQUAT RACKS, SIX BENCH PRESS STATIONS, A FEW DUMBELL BENCHES, TWO LEG PRESS MACHINES, TWO HACKS, A SMITH, AND DUMBELLS THAT GO UP TO 150 POUNDS, just to name a few. For sure there could be an ABC meeting because they had a karate demo on the fitness floor before.

Well I think we should definitely all agree on one. I'm down for any one of the steak houses. I'm guessing you know your way around the area layzie so we'll be fine. I also have a navigation system that I'm going to borrow off of my dad. What do you guys think?

What's up fellas, I'm the animal member from Pennbriar who described the gym and I'm stoked for this event! YOU PICKED THE RIGHT PLACE FOR THIS! Besides myself, we have a cop state champion powerlifter, Rick Emmerick, who's huge, strong, and cool as hell. We have two cool trainers who are seasoned lifters, Big Rich ( one cool& crazy meathead ), and Giles (the natural version of Phil Heath). If all these guys were there, it'll be a blast!

Hey man if you don't want to bench, its cool. Matt AKA icekitan is doing back like he said, and I'm sure he won't mind you joining in with him.

I'm thinking about having one of these every few months. Probably not another one during the summer just because of the drive I have to make along with changing around my plans.

This event is more so a local event with a couple outsiders. My reasoning for having it here in Edinboro is to get more exposure of Universal Nutrition / Animal in the small town of Edinboro. Don't be fooled, we have some strong beefy motherfuckers here. We will have more events to come I can promise you that. I won't let you down bro.

looking solid Ice!
it gets damn cold up there in the "snow belt" at edinboro (the fighting scots, i went to bball camp there a bunch of times in high school!)
so i know you guys are training hard.

if any of your boys up there are going to be home around the 'burgh for the holiday, tell them about the Steel City ABC on 11/29.

or better yet, just bring 'em with you!
looking forward to seeing you there.

To all the animals in the surrounding chapters, you may have caught word of an Akron/Canton ABC, and you heard right. We are gonna be throwin down at the Buckeye Gym in Tallmadge, OH. From what ive heard and from the pictures ive seen on the site, the place is noooooooo joke, some very cool equipment there to be used. i tried to get a time and date to cater to alot of yall that i talked to, so we can get this shit official.

Gorilla Pit Strength Sports in Mentor, OH is hosting an ABC on Jan 23, party starts at 2pm. If anyone plans on competing in Cleveland's Strongest Man on Feb 13 this is a perfect opportunity to check out the equipment that will be used. $5 at the door.

Contact info and address can be found at gorilla-pit.com

Michael Cartinian stopped by last weekend with Danny and Dave from 216 barbell. Mike and Danny both killed 900+lbs squats. See the videos on Gorilla Pit's you-tube channel, and a great interview we did with Cartinian here: http://www.facebook.com/v/1316173753193.

It's gonna be back to school time before we know it so I figured I'd offer an offical invite to all of ya still left in the Erie Chapter. Who wants to see an Abc happen before school time? Ya know I'm down. Let's get this shit rolling.
