      Charlotte/Lake Norman NC

      Alright bros, Beastin & I are having an ABC next Saturday (Oct 15) in Huntersville @ Noon. It's at Elite Fitness (pure bodybuilding, powerlifting, strongman gym, AMAZING atmosphere-- www.Elitefitnessnc.com". Owner is excited about it, so we are good to go. Tons of places to grub around afterwards. Right now we have myself, Beastin, Funky, and a few local Animals at the gym already. Atleast 6-7 guys as of now. If there is the Triad Western ABC same weekend, sweet. We'll spread the word of Animal across the state. Just made since for us to have one closer to us too, since we have quite a few guys in this area of the state. Who's down to come destroy the gym with us and leave the Animal mark?

      Whose ready to DESTROY the first ever Lake Norman ABC?? Gonna be a monsterous time!! What kind of food we looking at afterwards? Plenty of steak houses, bar food, healthy food, TONS of damn places to eat. There is a really good bbq place about 10 mins from the gym with actually real good healthy options too. Macspeedshop.com is pretty great food

      Not sure exactly. Depends on money up front i believe. If you go to www.elitefitnessnc.com they will tell you. Also, check out www.sportsandfitnessclubs.com. Not as hardcore, but cheaper and theres 7 gyms
