DAMN! That's a hell of a score!
I had a feeling it was gonna be pretty much all their products together with tons of other rad gear.
But it just looks more powerful when you see them all together devouring your kitchen table.
Tell me, was the lid of the giant pak can plastic or tin? I saw the first few vids but it seemed to get cut when you opened it. So the next scenes were just of you digging in the can.
Anyways, congrats once again.
The better man won.

I think the only way I would give it away is if Animal/Universal asked me to donate it as a prop or decoration for that sick gym they have been putting together thru Instagram...bc then, everyone gets to see it and have a part of it..

Bringing this back home for the month of August...

For those who missed out the first time around, this is your chance.

The supplement hook-up of a lifetime from the brand you trust to deliver the goods.

This time, to win, in 250 words or less, tell us how Animal has helped you in your life outside of the gym.

At the end of the month, we will pick a winner. Plus bet your ass there will be some consolation prizes for the best of the rest.

Deadline is Thursday, August 27th, 2015 at 9am. So you've got more than 3 weeks to make a splash worthy of such a ridiculous windfall.

If you won the last time around (grand prize or runners up), you are no longer eligible for this promo.

As always, you've gotta be at least 18 yrs old with a proper US mailing address.

Looking forward to being inspired by your entries. Let's do it again.

Peace, G

Animal is a way of life, Animal is a lifestyle, Animal is a brotherhood. Animal is far more then a supplement company, it is all of the things you could ask for in a group of people. My first experience with Animal was at the Arnold. It was the year before the military green hats w/ the white logo. I was doing the normal drag through the floor to get free shit I would never take. I remember seeing the cage and was amazed at the appearance. I have never seen dudes that big or lifting weights like that. I had to buy some shit, I bought a shirt and a hat and I remember Higa being the one I bought it from. He also gave me some wrist wraps and a journal and that sealed the deal for me. I truly felt like he was being a good dude and giving me something to keep me interested in Animal. I watched the cage for hours and from then I was hooked. I read all the articles, looked up all the training splits and went in to the gym on base and laid my mark. I am still not strong, no where close to where i thought I would be in five years but...I have made a new family. Go to an ABC if you need to see what I mean. Better yet come to one in Ohio. We are probably one of the tightest groups you will find in Animal. I still take animal supps and I have won a couple things here on the site and I would do anything for this company. I appreciate the chance to just enter something like this.

Not much has changed for me, in terms of fitness. I've STILL been grinding hard, and since the Arnold in March (my first time there) and meeting Dan, Frank, Garrett, Roman and others I've been even more motivated to achieve my fitness goals. Just talking to those guys, i realized that being an Animal is more than just in the gym. Outside of just the gym, as a person, Animal is doing the best you can to become the best version of you possible. As you get older, life just gets more complex. More hats to wear, more roles to fill, and finding the balance to do it all is pinnacle. Marriage, raising kids, maintaining a career and finding time to do the things you love. Like in the gym, i'm always trying to make myself a better; Husband, Father, Son, Brother, friend, role-model to my son and employee as possible, like i said so many of us wear so many different hats. Knowing your priorities is important, at the top of the list for me is my son. Starting my journey to become an Animal may of started in the gym, but it evolved into so much more. Thank you, Animal.

Animal has done so much for me inside the gym and outside. To start with start with friends, or the Animal Brotherhood. One of my best friends I've met with Animal! Some really great people in or around Animal. Ive also had a lot of help from learning and listening to Bros and Pros on how to eat, what to eat and how to train. My food diet has changed for the better in my life. As for learning stuff for training I've been able to help others get there goals along the way. One other note, with Animal doing Youtube videos and such they have helped in ways of “big on a budget” or just motivation for me to keep going in life to live “Big” like these people. I know this probably wasn’t a good run down on how Animal has effected my live but its hard to put in words how a supplement company is more then just that for a person like me, besides I'm happy I found Animal back in 2006, I wouldn’t know where my life would be now, and I've never looked back. Thanks for this opportunity

Growing up in the world and generation I am now kills the goals of many. Instead of bettering yourself everyday, the focus is fitting in, along with wanting to be loved by everyone else. There's so much BS in the world now regarding celebrities, athletes, and media to the point where there isn't much to aspire to. Animal has been my outlet, the standard by which I guide my actions and ethics day to day. On the surface it seems this lifestyle is all about lifting weights or getting bigger. Winning shows, making money, the want for fame is all nice and I believe crosses the minds of most who have picked up a weight. The deeper I've gotten in I have realized that isn't necessarily the case, it's more about self discovery and enlightenment. Anyone can run their mouth about what they will do, what they'll
become, how they live etc; but most of the time their actions reflect the complete opposite. So instead of "talking" of what I'll do, Animal has shown me to walk the walk. Be more than the average person, strive for greatness. At the same time better yourself each day along with those around you, which in turn makes the world a greater place. Most importantly Animal has shown me it's okay to be different; to not live in the norm of today's society. That one reason is why I align myself on this side, I'm grateful for it.

I know that life throws curveballs at everyone. For me I’ve found that nothing worth having is completely easy except giving in to defeat or temptation. I was raised to give 100% no matter what but there are times encouragement or being held accountable can push you forward. Being a member of the Animal FORVM is a great way to get the encouragement and motivation and at times being held accountable.

Over the last ~7 years that Animal has been part of my life I got what I thought was a dream job that turned into a nightmare, moved to a city that was like a different country from my hometown, my wife had a miscarriage, we had a kid, I moved back to my hometown, and tried to recover from an injury that defies diagnosis. Every day was a choice between pushing as hard as I could for what I wanted or taking the easy way out. I’m not going to lie and say “failure is never an option” or that I never considered settling, settling for an easier job or not trying for another kid or not or to keep pushing my fitness or just give in to the injury.

The discipline from the iron and the encouragement and the accountability of others on the FORVM has been a positive force in my life that can’t be overstated. With this and how I was raised I will never give in to the easier way.

It's the people behind the great product, every year I meet new people who have joined the brethren and every year I see old friends that have pushed each other along the way. I love the products from Pak to Animal Whey and everything in between. In closing, what makes a product great is the people who stand behind it and this company has it in spades.

Maybe it was Arnold, who said how the lessons he learned in the gym; hard work, dedication and the value of setting and achieving goals, served as a springboard into his professional ventures.

I have found similar things to be true in my time here and through the writings and interactions with some of Animal's most well known. Far beyond the benchmarks and personal milestones we all chase in the gym and behind the dinner plate, I’ve found solid, tried and true inspiration for a more impactful avenue of life; being a better man. We all know Animal is a no frill’s, blue-collar, save the smoke and mirrors for some other outfit type of company. What has kept me loyal to Animal for 8 years and counting, is the spirit of something bigger. Something that awaits all of us, during our time toiling with the weights and forever after. What kind of men are we?

So from Evan's, 'Nothing Worth Doing is Easy,' campaign during his run at the Arnold, to the House's, 'Do Your Work Son,' and all the blue collar ethos I've tried to soak up from the likes of G Diesel and Machine; Animal as a community, helped me bridge the gap between my efforts in the gym and the greatest assets I've had the gift of knowing: my father and grandfather. These are the men that have served as the best example of what real men, truly are. Thanks for helping me realize the connection.

It seems like it is more about the Animal brothers and sisters then it is about the supplements. That is whY i am still here and loyal. I consider you guys friends, and it is an amazing community. You really have changed my life.

Hello Animal!,

First off thank you for existing!!! I know there are many other less fortunate people out there, But as we all know life is tough and it will throw many curve balls at us when we least expect it, and although they say God gives his best battles to those he knows can overcome them, It’s been 4 years since my mother passed away from Stage 4 lung cancer and about a week after my father up and left me and my sister to move to the other side of the world. I still find myself battling life every day. So there I was at the age of 18 playing college football and loving life, the time came closer where I knew I would have to make a choice, a big choice that is. I would have to choose whether or not would be going back to attend my second semester or if I would be home to take care of my mother and spend the remaining time we had left together. As any loving son would do I called my football coach and told him I would not be returning giving the circumstances and that I was going to take a leave of absence for the second semester. My mother was not happy with my decision as she knew how much sports meant to me and how important school was for me but I could care less about anything else in that moment all I could care about was being there for the woman who has been there doing absolutely everything for me all 18 years . She made me promise that I would go back to school and Graduate, of course I knew I would go back to do just that. I ended up taking summer classes and overloading on credits so that I could graduate with my original class. Football didn’t not matter what mattered to me was that promise I made my mother of graduating and not only did I graduate I also strived to make Deans list as well. I found Animal while I had that semester off and started every morning by watching a YouTube video or reading some article related to the company and instantly fell in love. The brother hood of this company is like none other. These guys push each other and work together to create success and there’s nothing better than that! Without Animal I probably could have got addicted to something much worse but hey ill take an obsession or protein and animal pak over drugs or alcohol any day! Thank you so much for inspiring me and keeping me motivated on this Path called Life, without animal who knows where I might have ended up! I would love one day to tour the facility and or possibly work for them one day! This is a great promotion and a perfect opportunity for me to really tell you how much this brand has personally impacted my life. 5 years later I am now 23 and I still obsess over this company!

Thanks so much and God Bless!

I had set aside the iron when I got married. I ballooned up to about 298lbs of tubbiness. I had just started to train again in my baasement when I somehow partially tore a tendon in my ankle. I was out of work for 3 months and training was set aside again. Going down the stairs was out. Having nothing to do but read and surf the internet for 3 months I found Animal. The words spoke to me. I had to know more and found the FORVM. To make a long story short ... ANIMAL WOKE ME THE FUCK UP. My fires were lit. I was determined to make something out of my fat ass. I read the articles here over and over and eventually started a Journey. I became more confident in myself. I was changing, getting stronger. That confidence has carried over into my job and everyday life. Animal gave me back my belief in myself and that's a powerful thing. I have made friends on the FORVM and have been honored to meet some of them in real life. The knowledge and support here is insane. At 42 years old I'm stronger than ever and getting stronger still. I'm another who is proud to wear the gear because it means something to me. I don't even care if I win because I've already won.

Without Animal, there's no way that I would have found my current job, one about which I'm finally excited to go to work again. While interviewing, the CEO of my new company asked me about my ability to break things down into small chunks (both for myself and the team that will report to me), and I immediately started talking about bodybuilding. Animal is one of the key components that got me into this sport, especially with Frank's "Journey" ads. I told him that I approach every day with a plan, which includes short and long term goals- some of which I don't even notice anymore (like taking Pak), some of which are meticulously planned weeks or months in advance (diet or training plan). There's no way that you can do a diet anywhere from 12-20 weeks without proper planning, just like there's no way that I'll be able to help my new team of employees to achieve their aggressive quotas without it. Also, as a very health concsious office, I know that it helped me to have my references telling him that my dedication inspired them to get their own lives in check and helped them with their health- the first thing I did with many of these guys was talking to them about a good quality multi (Pak), and high quality foundational supps like Animal Whey, then directing them here. I know that without Animal, my life wouldn't be the same as it is today.

Alrighhttt everybody!! This EPIC promo is back and going to make someone very happy. Here is my entry:


Animal is special in not only is it hardcore, not your flimsy fake claiming, cookie cutter, average Joe company but it has created an UNTOUCHABLE brother/sisterhood among dedicated individuals. All gathered together for a common cause... being the total opposite of average. For me Animal has given me a home where I felt I belonged. Anyone can be "average", but I wanted to be something more. I wanted to be someone who would make their life matter in the world. I see Animal members and strong followers who do the exact same thing. They don't let life pass them by! They go out and fight for what they want! This example set by Animal and its brothers is what help keep that FIRE lit under my butt for years now. Going through college unsure of what I was doing and whether I could handle it. Animal's way of thinking is what made me sit down and tell myself "You know you got this! You can put your mind to anything, and you can make it happen." As I needed to start my career the uncertainty of my future stirred doubt inside my mind. Again the Animal's MINDSET came over me. I strapped up and got to work to get out and make things happen. Success isn't handed to you in life... You must go out and take it from anywhere you can while keeping your eyes on the end result. That is what Animal has done for me outside the gym.

Goodluck everybody!

While working the door of a club, I started talking to someone about health and trying to get back in shape. I shared my feelings about how hard it was to afford healthy food. He suggested looking at Big on a Budget. The next day at work I watched Big on a Budget and was hooked. For the next two hours I scrolled and watched everything from the cage videos to workout instructions. The one thing that got me was the term “Blue Collar”. And then I stumbled onto the supplements. Decided to roll the dice and placed an order. I still remember the first time I opened up Pak and questioned how I am going to take this many pills every day. But I believed in the words of strangers and started my Pak regiment. I continued to try new thing until I found the mix of supplements that felt right. Started to follow Animal athletes on Instagram and joined the Forum. I received “Real Talk” from the Animal athletes and other Animal Brotherhood. They pointed out flaws in my planning, nutrition, as well as built me up and gave great advice on how to improve and remove those flaws. Since I have started following Animal and living what I consider an “Animal” lifestyle, I have gone down at least 8 inches in the waist and two shirt sizes. No more 5xlt for me. Animal has helped me smile again and given me motivation to take back my life.

Every since I went to see Andrey last year I got an animal band and it has never left my wrist since. Even while deployed an in uniform I got in trouble twice for having it on but still it never came out. Those 3 words "Never Back Down" mean a lot and the Animal even more. It was a tough deployment we lost 2 guys, many were injured including myself but never once did i quit or backed down from the challenge. I believe I have become more confident in myself and less shy as well. There is something about wearing an Animal shirt that lights a fire in me, I know it sounds weird and it might all be inside my head but it works. I remember last summer I went on a gym date and I was nervous before hand but when i opened the drawer to grab a shirt my iconic yellow was staring at me and I had no doubts about putting that on. It was a nice date, we are still seeing in each other and every once in a while I let her sleep with one of animal shirts on, might sound weird but its sexy as hell to see her wearing it. Animal has changed my life both inside and outside the gym. I always got my shirt on every where. Always use my customized string bag that I got in Brazil with me. This band will never leave my wrist.

Since stumbling upon our beloved brand known as Animal, it's helped me define who I am inside. It is much more than can be put under 250 words about that immaterial, primordial starstuff that drives our passion and our determination. Call it bio-synchronicity that mimics wavelengths arranged in musical unison measured by equal parts will and self-sacrifice. Look into the innermost reservoir of emotions buried beyond, it is called will and it separates champions from journeymen. It is like a talismanic mind's eye prism that stakes its claim over solitude and casts doubt aside into clearer objectives. I see the returned soldier embraced by a clique of brothers bonded by the spirit of animal, much as a lone wolf traversing treacherous hemispheres back to its pack like lifeforce breathed into essence. We. are. animal. The Animal code has taught me to endure, adapt and defy limitations as an animal is supposed to do. While much of society live the zombie tumble coasting through life, Animal has refreshed values and grown my appetite for success. I have learned through trial and error and though I am not a betting man, because I've done that and lost - fought guys a foot taller and stronger than me before - I will always bet 100 out of 100 times on individuals' success being through the commitment that this Animal family and its athletes uphold. Working harder, not smarter has opened my eyes as to achieving more than a measly fraction of my true potential.

Many of you know my journey. Childhood obesity, border-line hypertensive, all about dat mass. Found The Forum at an early age (16 or 17 I believe) and learned from the Animal family all about dedication, hard work, and consistency not only in the gym but also in life. Of course being in my mid-teens and just starting out in the gym, that's all I applied it to because who cares about the future when you're poppin' a full chub when your shorts rub you the wrong way. Once I finished high school and began my college journey, I finally understood the importance of dedication, hard work, and consistency. I struggled out of the gate, school had always been easy, never studied up until this point. The first semester was rough (thank goodness I didn't have any super difficult courses) and I struggled to begin the spring semester too. At the CAGE that year (2012) I had a nice talk with good ole Evan Centopani and he spoke of the importance of applying gym dedication to everything in life. Fast-forward to now: I graduated with honors from undergrad, got a job doing what I love right out of school, and I am just beginning my first year of graduate school studying to get my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. Safe to say all the dedication, hard work, and consistency has paid off and I do not see myself letting up any time soon.

Some really great entries on how much the Animal brand has touched lifters from around the world. They speak to us at a personal level, they really care what we want and what we look for which is what has caused us to be partial to this brand and this brand alone. Animal is one of the only companies that I trust when it comes to taking supplements. I feel like I could contact them at any time and they would tellm honestly what is in a product and update me. Without Animal I know I wouldn't be where I am. I have met so many great friends using this FORVM alone that I will always be thankful.

Well said brother

Best of luck to my Animal brothers and the sisters that are out there, from the ones not accounted for to the ones we've shared a brew or partnered up for a few sets and who politely answered our questions. Important thing is we're here, inspired and we're all in this together!

If I could pick any brand..team... affiliation to get tatted on it'd be Animal and that's the truth. By golly there are so many a-holes and me-first personalities roaming across a fruited plane, it is not just fast becoming a shameless trend but a socially accepted form of mental disease, yet Animal rushes ahead with purpose, and pulls its weight up against the tide every day by striving to become better persons every day. Best of luck to all entrants!! This has been really amazing to be a part of.

Outside of the gym, to many, Animal is merely a brand. But as a brand and company it goes far beyond that. Firstly it represents motivation. All the ads and articles represent a form of motivation. That you are not alone in the grind and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. When I have been down due to teaching, medical issues or otherwise the Animal ads and articles have always been a source of motivation and inspiration. The no holds barred format has always hit home many of the lessons. Most of all the “You Can’t Do It” has motivated me the most with my medical issues. Everything said I would have to be careful and tone it down in the gym but I recovered and have hit more PRs then before I got sick. Animal has helped me make sure that I “never settle” for anything. Due to that idea I decided to take the high risk high reward of going back to Graduate school knowing the risks involved and the amount of work that I will have. So more than anything Animal has kept me moving forward both in the gym and out of it. It has helped me make sure that I do not get stuck in a rut and become placated with my life.

Patiently waiting here...

Got mine a few days ago but have not had much of a chance to try it out. Got the cookies and cream flavor so I am excited to try that out as I tend to go for vanilla or fruitier flavors since they mix better with water.

I received the BIG CAN today and wanted to first say thank you to G Diesel and the rest of the crew that made the decision.

Unfortunately for everyone here I've never uploaded a video online longer than a few seconds onto social media so please bare with me I hope to have it up tonight.

In the meantime here are a few pics of the moments leading up to the event and a few stills from the unboxing.

In the video please note I'm not exactly nervous as I have to regularly give presentations at work but this is a little different. Also I am not normally careless with a knife but the one I picked up would have a hard time cutting toilet paper let alone cardboard.

Also my legs are quite small but used to be proportional. As noted in my entry I suffered a leg injury ~4 years ago and I've yet to fully recover though I'm better than I've been since the injury and finally able to build my legs again

Next to the box

First my apologies. I ran into computer issues with my home PC for longer than I care to admit and then after I got that sorted I was having issues compressing the files (time and knowledge were limited). It's still potato quality but the best I could do. I'm not satisfied and will continue to improve the video but wanted to get it out now instead of later.

Again I want to thank G-Diesel and the rest of the crew at Animal for their selection. I just feel so blessed to have this opportunity and I can't say enough.

First video showing roughly 2/3 of the opening.

awesome! Glad to see that you got a M-Stak iconic since you had to retire your current one lol. Also, I think you will really like the Pro Style lifting straps. They hold up very well.

If I recall correctly the M-stak iconic was my first iconic shirt and maybe my first shirt period from Animal/Universal. It was hard to let go and I was overjoyed when I saw this shirt!
