It is such a great opportunity that Animal puts out there for us.
I would like to train with Derek Kendall. I know he is doing Military press in the Cage, but I am down to train just about anything. I am also looking forward to picking his brain about how he utilizes his BB'ing background in his training to maintain a physique while getting massively strong. Also interested to see how he has trained around some recent injuries since I am working around a torn meniscus. Thanks for the consideration and I hope I get to train with the big fella.
For sure man. We could use that weight to put up some big weights.
I signed up to train with Dan "Boss" Green. I cant think of anyone better to train with. Working my way back up into the 200s from a long drop weight period. I have always love to watch the way Dan lifts and his take on training. Coming form a bodybuilding style to more powerlifting i would love to hear more about his day to day training and how he preps for meets. Hopefully doing my first 3 lift this year and cant think of a better opertunity to learn all i can from a true legend! Thanks Animal for giving us bros a chance to stand in the spotlight for a lil while! Cant wait for this years ABC National......
This sounds good man. I'll be there. Time to train!

Unfortunately for me I did not make the cut off for the ABC event to register and there are no spots left I was told:(. If anything changes I will be there in a heartbeat. Come track me down in the booth if so, I really screwed myself over not registering in time...
Yea, bummed I didn't make the cut either. This is such a great opportunity to learn from the best athletes in these sports. But if he hasn't made up his mind yet, Jason Huh, it would be awesome to train. Its a name I've been familiar with for a while, and when I heard he was signing with Animal, I was excited. I'm extremely interested in his training style and philosophies, and really think I could gain a lot of knowledge from him. Plus we are both South Korean haha…Represent!!!
One of the elite lifters totaling over 2000 and a knowledgeable person in all that he does. Kevin Oak would be a great person to train with and get some pointers from. He has a hell of a squat and bench. Maybe those are some he can help me with. Gloing to be doing my first meet soon and would love this opportunity.
HOLY CRAP! i see the list and cant believe my eyes. Dan "Boss" Green has my name next to it. Level is now off the chart!!!! Man ill drive through 20ft of snow if i have to to get there!!!!

Dan, thanks a ton already! Truly looking forward to taking away everything i can from the ABC and this tops it all!

What's up my korean brotha, I'm in the same boat as you. Looks like too many of the forum faithful may have missed out... Planning to try and be standby, if there is such a thing.

I'm down, see you there. Flick my ear or something so I know it's you. Or maybe just tap my shoulder or something.

I would really like to get some tips, feedback, advice, etc.on squats from Sam Byrd. I recently hit a lifetime squat PR and did it without knee wraps. It would be great to keep the momentum going with a little help from a guy that squats almost 400 lbs more than I do.
