      PROMO: "Train With The Pros" in The Cage

      If you are attending the Arnold this year. You have an opportunity to train with your favorite Animal pro. We did this last year and some lucky guys got to train with their favorite Animal. Here is a testimonial:

      http://forum.animalpak.com/showthread.php?t=15558

      Here's the deal. Tell us which pro you would want to train with (Ox, House, Wrath, Vinny, BigAl, BigAnt, Machine, G Diesel, The Freak,) and why. The pros will pick the best entries.

      This will go down on the Friday night of the Arnold weekend (March 6th) so you gotta be there to qualify.

      Post your entries right here in this thread.

      Shortstacks Entry

      I want to train with The Freak. After seeing the vids of Freak training legs, I thought, hmmm that's a guy that could probably give me a few pointers. The more I train legs the more I love em and want them to grow and testing that with a pro would be a real treat.

      Thanks for the consideration Freak and thanks to Animalpak for giving us this great opportunity.

      I pick "THE HOUSE"

      The Animal I would pick to train with would be none other than "THE HOUSE". He has been my favorite competitor way before he even made the pros. He is a true inspiration to me not only is he an awesome bodybuilder but he's one hell of a family man as well. I have been following his career for a few years now and this would be a huge opportunity that I'd hate to miss out on.

      lifting with pro's

      I would also pick "THE HOUSE". I am somewhat new to lifting and would like all the help I can get! I met House once and got the opportunity to watch him lift. I was unable to lift that day, and have regreted it since. This would be a great start to an awesome weekend called the Arnold!!!!

      Speaking from experience, last year was a blast for House, Ox, Machine and I... The opportunity to mix it up with the hungry, dedicated members of the board and the chance to put a face and real name to the screen names was time very well spent. Besides, you know we're gonna be in there training any damn way, so we might as well make a community event out of it. Haha. Peace, G

      I would love to train with Ox. Ever since I first saw him in MD back when he won the Junior Nationals he has been a huge inspiration to me. Last year at the Arnold I was training at Metrofitness and he came right up to me and started bullshittin with me just like he was one of my friends. Talk about a down to earth dude...It made my weekend. After watching the other guys training with the pros there it made me regret being such a pussy and not entering this promo lol! It would be a HUGE honor to train with my favorite pro bodybuilder. A big thanks out to ANIMAL for giving us this great opportunity...

      Pick me FREAK!!!!!!!

      I met freak for the first time at one of our ABC's back on 1/3/9. As soon as i saw him step out of his truck I could tell on his face that he was all business when it came to the Iron. I got to speak Freak briefly before the we started lifting and he was very humble and welcoming to me as well as the others to his stomping grounds. We then shortly headed over to the leg area where the FREAK put his name to use. the amount of weight he used shocked me and how hard he trained. He is a very dedicated and knowledgeable in this sport. His passion shoots out his eyes when ever you ask him a question. Then I had to opportunity to have lunch with him and during this lunch he answered more of my questions with a sincere interest and not just blowing smoke. He takes pride in his sport as well as the friends in makes while on his journey. I would love the honor to be able to have a training session with him and just soak everything up like a sponge. Training with Freak would be a lifetime memory that one could never forget!!!!!

      DAMMIT!!! I would give my left testicle...ok, maybe not, to be a part of this. I was planning on being there but just got laid off...no job equals no money. The ones that wins this better enjoy the hell out of it. I got to lift with G before guys...unfortanetly he was recovering from an injury but still put everything he had into it. Awesome promo Animal....
