Animal Pak 44 outsells AST Multi-Pro in many areas, but both are good items. They are coming out with Animal Pump within a week or so...

LOL.  Gee, what can ya say.  If the fictional guy in the ad is more interested in working out than having some of that, then I'd say that's indicative of some deeper psychological pathology going on.  You have to question the wisdom of marketing your product to such a small niche (not to mention mentally deranged) demographic.

I dunno, if you had the ability pull new p*ssy of a high caliber 365 days a year, with no effort, you'd be better set to taking the year off from working out.  I don't know any man that would rather hit the gym for a year than nail 365 new females.  Keepin it real here.  When you're 80 years old, you'll remember that glorious year a lot more than you'll remember that extra quarter-inch on your arms.

Rod,

If some guys choose (via anabolics) to get to a lean 260lbs over-and-above investing in their financial future (or paying the rent)  ....then yes, most women are going to view those guys as "losers".

Women look at financial success, over and above all else, here in LA. It may be different elsewhere in the States.

If, however, you can drive a new SL 500, have financial investments AND weigh in at a lean 260lbs you may have a better shot?

Hey, I don't make the rules!

I was going to say something similar ROFL. Those 2 ads should be for Viagra!!!! Frank has the kind of miserable look on his face that someone would have if they couldn't ahem, rise to the occassion. It looks like the chick went to sleep waiting for him to get a boner in the first pic and the second pic should have a caption along the lines of " WTF do you mean you still can't get it up?"  (and hence, that look on his face that would PERFECTLY reflect how he would be feeling on the inside) ;D

The most ridiculous thing about this ad, along with virtually all of the other ones from Animal (Universal), is that being a selfish knuclehead somehow equates to being a "hardcore" bodybuilder.

Maybe someone should remind these folks about Bill Pearl. This guy used to wake up as early as 3 a.m. to hit the iron. With his training out of the way, he was able to work, run a gym, and TAKE CARE OF HIS FAMILY (wife and kids).

Did I mention that Bill Pearl won the NABBA Mr. Universe, which at that time was the most prestigious title in bodybuilding, FOUR TIMES. Yet, he didn't ignore his wife or foolishly spend his rent/mortgage money on supplements.

Oh, there's that other guy, a big black fellow. Some people called him "Awesome" or something like that.......OOOOHHHH!!! That would be Lee Haney!! All he did was win the AAU Mr. America, the NPC Nationals, the Mr. Universe, and EIGHT Mr. Olympia titles.

Last time I checked, he's been married for over two decades. He even missed watching Ronnie Coleman tie his record to be with his son, as he started his first year of college. He also runs a ranch to help young children out.

Yeah, being selfish is key to being a "hardcore" bodybuilder. ::)

 In that ad...obviously she is upset or mad at the big bad bodybuilder...the subliminal message I picked up is that the truth is...she is falling madly in love with him and the more he ignores her and puts BB first and makes her feel she isnt worth a shit...the MORE in love she will be with him. Women are like that! Now...if in this advertisment...the BB put HER first and didnt take training that serious and had flowers for her and treated her like an equal...she would probably look upon him as a friend...as a 'nice guy' hence...she wouldnt truly respect him then eventually cheat on him with someone who WILL treat her like a whore.

 9 out of 10 times...its what women really want. Know what Im sayin?

To a degree, you're right. I used to think the same way when I was in college 10 years ago. But, I realized something: These types of women are the head cases. These are the women that have been psychologically and/or physically abused in their younger years. They've become so used to being treated like garbage that they think being treated like a human being is a novelty. To them, being treated right means only hitting them once a month or cheating on them with someone they don't know. They're messed up, like the "Jenny" character in the movie, Forrest Gump.

I was briefly (and I stress BRIEFLY) involved with such a girl. This woman always thought I was going to see another girl, even though we were never officially a couple. She made a scene about that in front of my house and didn't believe I was going to play softball, even though I was my softball uniform. She didn't even believe me, when my best friend, who played for a different team (and helped set up the field) showed up in his uniform, with the balls, bats, bases, chalk, and gloves in the back of his truck.

These kinds of women are the only ones who would put up with a buffoon-type bodybuilder, such as the one portrayed in the Animal ads (by Frank McGrath, I think). Anyone woman with a legitimate amount of self-esteem would have told him to stick his protein powder, Aminal Cuts, etc. where the sun don't shine.

the reality is the ad is a good ad.   mainly for the fact it has people talking about animal pak, and thats all they can ask for. 

i remember when i was really young and my friends father drove a van service.  he posted his sign on his car.  the sign was posted crocked, just so people would look and be "ha, they are so dumb, the signs slanted"   meanwhile, the company name would stick in the memory, even if it was only for the brief time period. 
 
its the same reason the muscle tech ad's are as crazy as they are.   just the pages alone crack me up, but it does the job.   the cell tech name is household.  and the reality is, someone is going to give it a shot just because they keep hearing the name. 

the point is to get people talking about the company, and in that they have done their job.

the reality is the ad is a good ad.   mainly for the fact it has people talking about animal pak, and thats all they can ask for. 

i remember when i was really young and my friends father drove a van service.  he posted his sign on his car.  the sign was posted crocked, just so people would look and be "ha, they are so dumb, the signs slanted"   meanwhile, the company name would stick in the memory, even if it was only for the brief time period. 
 
its the same reason the muscle tech ad's are as crazy as they are.   just the pages alone crack me up, but it does the job.   the cell tech name is household.  and the reality is, someone is going to give it a shot just because they keep hearing the name. 

the point is to get people talking about the company, and in that they have done their job. 

Talking about the ad and actually buying their product are two different things altogether. I certainly don't feel the urge to buy Universal wares, just because the company protrayed some bodybuilder as a selfish meathead, living in a rat-shack, looking down on other people (including the few who might actually care about his dumb behind), in a foolish attempt to be "hardcore".

Is this guy more "hardcore" than Bill Pearl or Lee Haney? I don't think so!!! Win 4 Mr. Us or 8 Mr. Os, while maintaining a business, a stable marriage, and a loving family. Now THAT'S "HARDCORE"!!!!

 ;D

I bet the mood on the photo shoot set was all serious. 

"Frank, act like you're deep in thought.  Frank, act like you're really upset.  Frank, act like you are serious.  Frank, be an aminal."

Luckily for them, Frank's facial expression for all of these emotions is identical.



and that catabolic line is priceless!

just talking about the ad is half the battle.   it has a ripple effect, and someone will buy the product just to "check it out"

 I feel ya, MCWAY. I know what you mean...

 Still...how they were raised or what they expierenced in their younger years doesnt mean crap to me...overall, I have to go with the FACT across the board...doesnt matter their social status, race, religion, creed, socioeconomic situation...women like the jerks...and never respect good men. They just dont!

 Not ALWAYS true I know...it isnt an exact science but its a pretty safe bet. You want a woman to make YOU her world...treat her like garbage. Want her to NOT respect you and walk all over you and take you as a fool? Treat her good.

 It sounds like something out of a paralell(sp?) universe but its true! The less respect you give a woman the MORE you get back.

As long as you're involved with the "Jenny" types, that will often be the case. Some of these women will eventually come to their senses. The question simply is how many times will they get burned (literally and figuratively) before that happens.

If what you say were completely true, I wouldn't be married now, and an adorable little toddler would not be tearing my house to shreds, as we speak.

It goes back to what I've said before. Being a self-centered jerk is hardly a pre-requisite for being a succesful bodybuilder, which is why I find the Animal ads extremely ridiculous. And, bodybuilding should be an enjoyable thing; it certainly is to me. I've seen people getting root canals with better attitudes than the one McGrath is portraying in those pics.

Few points:

Psycho chicks are great in bed.  Oh well. 

Grant Michaels, money aside, and not to hate, but come on...if women were that concerned about how much money a guy makes in LA, then being a male pornstar ain't the way to reel em in either.  It's common knowledge that dudes don't make a ton of cash in porn...unless you've already resigned to that fact, at least you get to have meaningless sex with the hottest sluts on earth for as long as your dick continues to produce.

I can't see how being a porn star would help you get a decent woman any better than being the stereotypical "bad ass ANIMAL" portrayed in the ads...if anything, I'd say your chances would be BETTER in his case!  But you were one of them once upon a time as well, so you've seen both sides.

#1 You are the target auidence for this ad.  That being said, you guys have still given it a ton of press on here

#2 Universal does well oversea's, probably better than they do domestically.  Maybe this ad is big overthere, who knows.

#3 The girl in the ad has herpies, that is why he isn't hitting it.  Animal Pak can do everything for you, but cure you favorite STD.

I think you misunderstood where I was coming from.  I was never trying to convey that any porn star had a better chance than the financially broke bodybuilder (conveyed by McGrath) in the ad.

The focus of this discussion never had anything to do with me.  It had to do with the THEME of the Animal Pak marketing campaign.

My point was that women (especially in LA) are mainly concerned with a man's financial status and well-being far more so than where he might place at the next NPC show.

That being said many women are not even concerned with how, or where, a man may have made his money.  Just has long as he has it.

I dunno.  If a girl is that dirty, Animal might want to reconsider sharing that cot with her.

Thanks for giving me credibility as a bodybuilder once.  Yes, I've seen both sides.  And being 250lbs and broke just ain't in vogue anymore.

That's why I think this marketing campaign sucks.

...yep, I did misunderstand the original statement....and not to hijack the thread, but since you HAVE been on both sides, so... the question, if you're willing to answer it is....Who gets more legit pussy (ie, not on the set).....an NPC competitor (who may or may not be broke) or a male pornstar (again, may or may not be broke)...you might be the ONLY guy on EARTH who could legitimately answer that question, by the way.

The gist of these silly Animal (Universal) ads is that it takes this type of boorish, fiscally irresponsible, and utterly stupid behavior to be a champion bodybuilder. That is completely ridiculous.

Again, I refer you to the examples of 4-Time Mr. Universe, Bill Pearl, and 8-time Mr. Olympia, Lee Haney.

They didn't treat their loved ones like garbage, live in a rat-shack, or make bone-headed financial decisions all for the sake of bodybuilding.

Since when did squalor and selfishness equate to desire and dedication?

Rod,

If some guys choose (via anabolics) to get to a lean 260lbs over-and-above investing in their financial future (or paying the rent)  ....then yes, most women are going to view those guys as "losers".

Women look at financial success, over and above all else, here in LA. It may be different elsewhere in the States.

If, however, you can drive a new SL 500, have financial investments AND weigh in at a lean 260lbs you may have a better shot?

Hey, I don't make the rules!


doesnt have to be the new SL  take a look at a '67 250 SE convertible :)

Maybe the ad is saying, "even this big muscular(due to large animal pak consumption) looser can get hot p*ssy when ever HE wants or is in the mood"  "Being big will get you laid"

Sex is the seller.  Lots of the teens and young guys who this stuff is marketed at are definatly wanting sex, so they gear up on Universal products to get some....cause the guy in the ad is.  Maybe they dont see it right away looking at the ad but the seed is planted.
