    John Meadows is an American professional bodybuilder and entrepreneur with an intriguing story. While John now boasts a successful career as an IFBB Pro bodybuilder and fitness company owner, his journey towards the top was extremely difficult.
    Growing up, John never met his father, and his mother died at an extremely young age. This meant John only had his grandmother to take care of him. When his grandmother tragically passed away in 1999, John was left alone without his family to support him.
    As the years went by, John continued to face new adversities in his life. During his early days in bodybuilding, John suffered from a rare colon disease. After fighting the disease for several months, his colon burst - almost resulting in his death. Luckily, John was quickly rushed to an emergency room where his life was saved. After several months of recovery, John was finally back on his feet.
    Coming back into bodybuilding, John used the very obstacles that almost cost him his life as ‘fuel’ to grow stronger. Ever since he recovered from the colon surgery, John has gone on to become a successful bodybuilder, entrepreneur, and inspiration for many people all over the world.

    Hi John,
    I'd like to apologize to you for a comment I made on one of your previous videos.
    You're clearly very passionate about what you do and very knowledgeable in your craft.
    Unfortunately I became a keyboard warrior and misjudged you based on how you looked.
    My comments were made publicly and even though you replied to me, it's only right my apology is also made in public.
    I'm sorry for any offence caused, keep up the good work.
    Message I sent to John:
    Those over pronounced deltoids, rounded traps along with the stretch marks across your chest all point towards a natural lifter, now sell me your supplements and workout plans like everyone else and make me believe I can achieve your results naturally...
    As you can see I was very sarcastic and disrespectful towards John.
    Nobody knows the true meaning of why we are all here, but I know spreading hate isn't it and fundamentally didn't sit right with me.
    To say this experience has had a profound effect on me would be an understatement, as such any previous negative comments to anyone else have been removed with public apologies made.
    Thanks again for your time and understanding John.

    Almost impossible to have shoulders too large. Mine have been under size for many years because I never had a dedicated shoulder workout routine. My undersized and undefined shoulders absolutely diminished the look of all the other gains I was making elsewhere. I finally had to get serious and take my shoulders to the woodshed. Put them at the top of my list for almost two years. Man, best thing I ever did. My shoulders are now in proportion and i feel wide. My back and chest also benefitted from hitting shoulders hard. My opinion now is that large, cut shoulders are the keystone on which to build the rest of one's physique. Can never hit them hard enough. Love it!

Ohh that pump and burn is REAL !! ♥️♥️

I've been focusing on that more lately as it seems it's not so much targeted with "typical" shoulder exercises and I've observed my side delts seems lacking. Thanks again for another great video. I've never tried that last one (the cable side raises) with that form but I'm looking forward to adding it in.

    With you on the pressing. I've done a lot of overhead pressing in my life. I was a strongman competitor and every comp had an overhead event. Log, Axle, Single arm dumbbell, yolk press, medleys etc etc but my shoulders were always shit. Literally looked like I had no growth. I dropped pressing almost altogether and put in more side laterals etc and boom, shoulder growth! I used to lift heavy all the time and had lots of injuries with pressing. I lift much lighter on my shoulders now and they look 100% better! Have you tried cuffed crucifix laterals? Very similar to the last cable exercise you did. Love those at the moment.
