robert Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Anyone in Portland want to get together to train? I've been training with davidtarrfoster and now I'm beginning to train with xdarthveganx. I'm across the street waiting for him right now and we're going to go destroy our legs in a few minutes. A day pass is only $5 so we should get a group of us together, maybe even once a week or every two weeks to train as a group. Who's in? Chances are you'll get a free or nearly free Vegan Bodybuilding shirt too since it's awesome to see a bunch of people in the gym at once wearing the shirts. Let me know!

DV Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Are girls welcome? Actually, are older women welcome? I don't work Wednesdays so that's always one of my training days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 Yeah, of course xdarthveganx has a really cool gym I've been going to. I'm sure we can all agree on a gym whether it is his YMCA gym or another place. I'd love to get a group together, even if it is just once every 2 weeks or once per month, just to workout and and have lunch or dinner afterwards (since I always eat right after working out) and it would be fun. The nice thing about xdarthveganx's gym is that it has these amenities and more: Outdoor running trackIndoor running track2 Basketball courtsSwimming poolTable TennisRacquetball WeightsCardio equipmentSteamroomSaunaHot-tubPunching Bagetc.... So anyway, it's a lot of fun. It's also located downtown in SW so it's pretty close to good eating places in SW, NW and SE. Let's try to get a group together at least once a month. It's only $5 for a day pass. Some other gyms are much more to workout for the day. Thanks for your interest DV, and I hope others are interested too. I'm having fun training with other forum members!

xdarthveganx Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Oh yeah, Robert and I have been a lot of fun. Like most people I push myself a lot harder when I have someone there with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Darth say Hi to me next time you see me there. I'm usually in all black in the weightroom. Look for poor form and headphones and you've found me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 Oh cool! You go there too? Sweet man, I'm sure I'll bump into you as well. I like that gym and the other amenities available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveliberate Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I'd love to come work out with ya'll. I have almost no experience so if anyone wanted to help me get started, I'd really appreciate that. Lotus & I have been considering a family membership at the YMCA so this might just help make that happen for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 3, 2007 Author Share Posted April 3, 2007 Yeah, this gym is great! You can see above the list of things they offer! The pool, the tracks, the b-ball, the table tennis, the weights, the steam, sauna, hot-tub, and much more, even kids activities! I may even join because it is very cheap and adjusted by income from what I heard. Granted, I have a gym just a few streets away that I normally go to, but it's small and YMCA offers so much more! Even if we just used guest passes, it's only $5 per person and we can meet once every week or once every 2 weeks and stay for like 2-3 hours training, eating, hanging out and playing basketball and table tennis!!!!! Portland just added a couple more forum members to it's list this week so we'll keep on growing with opportunities to hang out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 8, 2007 Author Share Posted April 8, 2007 Let's set a date and time for our first "group training" in Portland. Any ideas? xdarthveganx and I will be out of town the weekend of the 20/21st this month. I compete April 28th, but sometime before or after that would probably be fine for me.

DV Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Wednesdays are almost always good for me. As well as Mondays and Tuesdays. Maybe after your competition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveliberate Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Sundays & Mondays after 2pm generally work best for me & mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 After my contest let's do it! It was nice to see a few of you this week. I hadn't seen some of you Portland people in a while so thanks for coming by and dropping off fundraiser items, and stuff like that. We'll train soon. Also be sure to come out to People's Co-op May 5th 1PM-7PM for our Vegan Vacation fundraiser yard sale We have some cool stuff to sell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
