Narrative:
After requesting and receiving flight following during commercial training, ATC advised of possible target to east. After leveling from lazy 8, saw bottom of aircraft maneuvering to his right. I turned left. After leveloff, beechcraft V bonanza seen. Approximately 5-10 seconds from ATC notification until evasive maneuvers. Clearing turns made prior to commercial maneuvers. I was trying to keep see and avoid during all phases. Never saw other aircraft until after evasive action.
