PROMO: "Train With The Pros" in The Cage

[RyenPaul]

well wats up fellas. im new to the board but id figured id give this a shot as my first post. it would be a dream to train with the wrath mcgrath. his dvds are really inspirtaional. as a matter of fact the animal brand and team is pretty damn insiprtational. i wish i could train with all of you guys to be honest! wrath seems to be pretty laidback and chill and somewhat on the quiet side but he seems to get real serious in the gym real quick. his form is damn near perfect plus i could always use some tips on building up bis and tris haha. soo thats about it. mcgrath is my pic. Let me know frank!

[dannynb]

Ok, I'm gonna put my name in the hat. I pick House...he;s been kind enough to help me with my show prep this past year, and meeting him at the Europa made me feel giddy like a school girl...yeah, yeah, let the jokes begin. Erik has been more than just a bodybuilder he's inspirational to me showing me that you can still be a family man and have this kind of life, which is my desire. My girl just told me that she'll pay for me to go just for this oppurtunity as an early birthday present. I belong there with the boy's reguardless if I win or not I will be there.

[Vinny G]

HAHA. If thats the Case I will travel to San Diego which is only two hours for me and take Freak out for Dinner and Dancing. LMAO!!!!!!!!!

i think FREAK will train with you...not DANCE....LOL

[The Freak]

lololol

ah yea vinnie's right train yes dance no..... you'll never see me on one of those dancing with the stars gigs..... more like the dancing fool maybe...lol

[firsthorseman97]

I would like the opportunity to train with non other than G Diesel. G is an inspiration, not only with his training but also with his words. G is my definition of Animal. Thanks and good luck to all who enter.

[scals]

No doubt about it, I wanna train with G Diesel. A man whose articles got me started in this game a few years back, would be nothing short of amazing to train with. His drive, desire, and all out no nosense training is something that I would love to experience in the flesh. I respect each and every one of the Animals that I could choose in this, but G has lived such a similar life to mine, I would like nothing better than to train with him.

lololol

I never said dance with me. Im sure Freaks Lady would take care of that job =D. But getting them there and dinner would b just a lil incentive to train with him. LOL

[sanga]

I have the utmost respect for all the Pros and all Animals and can`t wait to meet them all but Vinny is the man I am looking forward to meeting most of all, I think Vinny is the pro of the pros, without a doubt he is my number 1 choice to train with.

I`ve had some excellent advice from Tiny and from Ox in the past, I`m really looking forward to meeting them both too.

Vinny is the biggest inspiration on this forum for me, I love Vinnys no bullshit approach, the way he writes and the way he carries himself here on the forum and on Universal, a true gent and a postive attitude.

I`d be honoured to train with you Vinny, it would make my first trip to the states more special, the icing on the cake.

[Firefist]

If you know me at all, youd already know whod id pick. the house is an inspiration and the hat that he signed for me, and his quote "one more rep" has pushed me to crank out regaurdless of how shitty i feel at the end. one of his MD covers (the legpress one) got me to appreciate having gargantuan legs, now i embrace having pants that dont fit anymore.

above all, his quote, you are your maker, inspires me to work harder every day, not just in the weightroom, but in the classroom, at work, in my music, and everything that i do.

id also love to get tips on improving my calves, yes they are a very genetically inclined muscle i understand, but im not giving up, and if there is anyone in the world who knows a thing or two about calves, it has to be the house!

[BigAnt]

House, G, BigAl, Freak, Ox, Wrath, Machine, VinnyG...All train balls to the wall intense, just a glimpse what happened last year...

We where all at the Gym/Metro Fitness in Columbus OH, formely World Gym...I was training legs with a bunch of young forum members on Saturday. Friday, the night before...JDawg, myself and another Animal crew did over a 500 rep arm workout in less than 45 minutes---Anyway back to the leg workkout...We where on the leg press, and running out of plates, Machne was doing barbell rows next to the leg press, one Animal forum member thought Machine was done his sets and grabbed plates off his bar...The look on Machine's face was priceless! So the night comes to a close, group pictures are being taken, the gym lights go off and the gym is closing. Machine is still doing barbell rows with over 500lbs...IN THE DARK, HOODIE ON, JUST ROWING AWAY!

INTENSE!

[Flash419]

Awesome promo....

My pick would be to hit Arms with HOUSE! This guys guns are AWESOME! I got to meet Erik at the Akron ABC last year, and beyond being just a great bodybuilder (and definately an up and coming IFBB champ), he also is a very laid back and down to earth guy. I also got to go to dinner after with House and his wife.. among others after the workout. It was a great evening.

INTENSE!

I remember standing near where he was working right before we took the group picture. He turned to the ones of us right there by his set up and said. "if you guys will excuse me I'm going to pick this up off the floor a few times" Pulled some serious deads with all of us standing there in awe!!!

I can't wait for the fun this year!

[arsilva]

I'd like to train with G Diesel. In my short time on the Forvm, his articles have been put to great motivational use, and to have the opportunity to train not only with fellow Animals, but G Diesel himself would be a welcome break from the environment of my usual gym. Also, I think it would be great to get to take some time to talk to G, because it seems that he, like myself, can take the no-bullshit, go hard or go home discipline in the gym, and translate that into an easy-to-talk-to, straight shooting guy outside of the gym. Having this TRUE Animal experience would make the Arnold weekend just that much better.

Excellent stuff.

ok bring it on

[fatbackgoal]

First like many others I have to say what a great promo to run and shows that the folks here are well ahead of the curve. While it would be informational and inspirational to train with any of them I would have to choose BigAl. Having a large frame (6'5" 330) I have never had the size to go on that frame and have finally decided at age 41 I am going to make it happen. After watching and reading about BigAl moving the weight I would really like to sit and learn the basics of building mass off a powerlifting base. Regardless whether I am chosen I still look forward to meeting everyone from the boards.

[Big Al]

Thanks Fatback,I love that name.LOL
No matter what we'll sit down sometime over the weekend and talk shop.
And all you guys got to come up to us in the cage and let us know who you are.
We might forget some names,damn last year I ment a ton of you guys.
It's great to get us all together.

[arsilva]

BigAl, good point. Whether or not we get to "train with a pro," we should all be aware of the fact that the Animal guys are coming for us, to talk to us and train with us. Every brother and sister who calls themselves an Animal has a vested interest in every other Animal.
