I called the manager and left a message, but when I talk to him I'll make sure they have at least one power rack; the FAC and MAC each have two.

      I hit chest on Monday, and I might be able to make it to the NAC if you want someone from the FORVM to train with. Let me know what you think, and I'll confirm by Friday what I can do.
      Thanks Brother. I have to hit Squats sometime between now and wednesday and I'm pretty open in the mornings. not so sure about night but let me know when you are around and I'll see if we can make something work. I'll shoot over my cell # and you can text or call if something works.

      Sounds good. Let's see if we can't make this happen.

      As for muscle groups I'm still trying to heal a torn hamstring, so no squats, but at the very least I can provide a spot.

      We had two guys from Nashville/Middle Tennessee show up to the last event GUNS got together in this thread Middle TN ABC Thread; bigkahuna08 and myself. A few other maybes but they couldn't make it for various reasons.

      Three guys from MS showed up, too. They would be a maybe right now, but will probably make another trip later this year, I'll ask what they're thinking.

      If we can get a few more "yes" votes from people in the area, I think we could get something together in a reasonable amount of time. I'll start sending out some PMs and see what the interest level is at right now. Thanks for the interest!

      definitely need to get another one going this year. Last year was awesome with GUNZ and Appollonian. Would like to get maybe two workout groups together to lift. Last year we cycled 5 guys with shoulders and worked out well surprisingly, we killed it! BigByrd would be awesome if you could join us. I heard you were at the Conquer hours a few weeks ago. I got to Gold's gym in hendersonville, but I know some people there at Fitness plus. I went to the conquer hours early, so not many people were there initially.

      I'm in agreement with Big Kahuna.

      GUNS will have to let us know his availability, but Big Kahuna and I have tossed around the idea of May 18th, a little over a month from now. I contacted Sam Byrd and he said if we give him the date he can contact a facility for us, I just want a solid headcount before I take it to that stage.

      I'll probably be bringing 1 person (my wife) and maybe 2-3 others. I'll follow up on some PMs and see if I can get others in here.

      The gym in Nashville I have in mind already has a night similar to the ABC called Conquer Hour. I think it is every friday night from 4-7. Would be good to get in there with that. They have a DJ set up blasting music and selling local meathead clothing line and whatnot. Its run by my diet prep guy.

      I knew about it pretty soon after it was being built. there are people from CH who go to gold's and they were telling me about it. That would be awesome to have an ABc at the new gym. I would really enjoy that!

      If an ABC is done in Tennessee, best believe kettlebellfreak is anxious to come. Would love to learn something from guys who have done this a lot longer than me.

      Appollonian said something to me in a PM about mid may, is that about right?
