Hasbin; could u post more about Animal in the gym? I remember an old wrestling mag where writer commented on Hawk's physique and power and he was like "Animal is the man he blows all power lifters away at every gym we visit." Always stuck with me, Animal was a true iron warrior
I think my post may be misleading. I worked out with him once when he was in town. I was not his training partner. sorry if that was misconstrued.
he was huge, powerful and friendly. there was a member that had possibly the best arms in the world (seriously, unbelievable, and I have seen most of the greats. triceps striated from elbow to rear delt, both heads. and biceps that still were peaked when his arm was almost straight. but the guy never ever trained legs. he said it was too painful
) anyway, animal complimented him on his arms and the kid snubbed him. animal was PISSED!! for the rest of the workout everyone thought he was gonna kill the kid. and this was back in the day when people would follow someone into the changeroom and beat them half to death when they deserved it.
