RIP you will be missed John the most modest gentle big guy I’ve ever watched. I’ve based my training by your teachings after I stopped strength training.
Shit ..so he actually died ..I thought stupid people were taking the piss ...rip I've just started watching his videos seems like a very knowledgeable guy with great experience..reminds me of my old trainer old-school style
I don’t mind cussing. But the fact that the cuss words get edited out just adds to John’s all American dad wholesome persona and makes me love him even more.
Makes it so much easier to watch with my girlfriends little girls running around me. When I watch Derek from more plates more dates I have to adjust the volume to very low because of the cussing.
John looks like the nicest guy in the world but when he trains he looks like he will beat someone’s ass. This has truly become my bible on training. I really love all your videos brother, thank you for them and please keep em coming!
Crocodile Dundee was a movie from the mid 80s but you really don't even have to specify the year, absolutely everyone is familiar with it or at least I think so maybe the younger generations aren't familiar
Mr. Meadows, you are the only person I can watch measure a bicep without shaking my head at the tape not capturing the thickest part of a person's arm. I also have tons of respect for how calm and thoughtful you are until you pick up weight and switch into a vicious punisher of muscle fibre.
Rest in peace Mountain Dog Meadows. Thank you for the workout programmes over the years. The hi everybody will never feel the same again. My condolences go out to your family and your fans will ensure your legacy and legend stays strong. Goodbye big man.
I like when they are doing the tricep extension that John is putting his fingertips on Juji's tricep. No matter how much experience you have, or how well you have developed your mind-muscle connection - sometimes having a partner to actually provide outside stimulus to the area you're trying to work can really help you concentrate on that area. For instance, because of my leverages and genetics bench press really works my chest well so I don't need to focus on it so much. In fact, my chest, triceps, back, calves and glutes really respond to training well. But I have crap leverages and genetics for shoulders, quads, and biceps - which unfortunately are prime movers in making you look like you actually lift. If you don't have a partner, this is what has worked for me. On muscle groups that you are weak on and need to work on...put a little bit of athletic tape on the area. Just that little exterior stimulus of the stickiness of the tape can help you really target where the effort should be coming from. Does it make me look weird? Yep. But I have a pretty solid home gym so I don't care how I look working out.
Interesting idea! In my 30+yrs of training I haven’t run across that advice. I too have poor bicep genetics, and like you said, it is the premier showcase muscle to the average person so it’s been a life long frustration of mine to be relatively underdeveloped in this area! I’ll give some tape a try. Thanks!
Just found out that John has sadly passed. Such a shame, what an absolute gent. Thoroughly enjoyed watching and listening to him on here. Will be sorely missed...RIP big fella.
Mountain Dog is by far my favourite person/bodybuilder out there, what I love more than anything else is how much he wants the person he is training to succeed and do well. Not to forget his intensity is amazing.
Oh my gosh, I just heard that John passed in his sleep. He is one of my favorites. Seems like such a nice fellow. My condolences to his family! So sorry
Thanks for everything, John! I thoroughly enjoyed your work and appreciate your work in all areas of life. My heart goes out to your family. Rest in peace
RIP John. Hes such a big inspiration for me. The dude was really so smart about his training. I've been adopting a lot of his principles with training in general, and the progress has been absolutely unreal. In just 6 weeks, my arms have no joke grown, so much, and got so much stronger. I love you, Mr Medows. Thank you for everything.
The double rope pulldown is by far the best tricep exercise I've done. John's arm routine is just top notch in general. Super setting with smart movements. Great stuff.
I did my workout alongside your collaberation here ! Really inspired me to push on and do a bit more. Im 49 yrs old and Im still pumping Iron, its never easy and maybe that's why I continue love doing it ! John ....your an inspiration !
Got all my gym buddies hooked to this channel as well. Thank you for posting quality content that is literally helping change my own life (down 30 lbs so far this year) as well as my family and friends. Love the Juji collab! Hyped for this one!
What John said there about Juji, it shows if you've watched alot of him. Very genuine guy, and I think both of them together is quite rare of a couple of awesomeness. Just genuinely good people. There's so much ego and bullshit in this industry, with these two guys, no ego, just good will towards everyone.
Dang it of course I did arms yesterday. I can't wait to try this routine. Juji you are a lucky man to train with one of the greatest of all time. Great video, I always learn something new!
John, if You could give my dad some workout tips up there where You both are,that would be great. He always admired "old school" bodybuilders with their discipline and dedication and reminded me that if some od the Pro's like You could build awesome physiques - from scrawny boys to peak muscularity- using just discipline, nutrition heavy iron and simple machines then no matter what is my starting point and how limited my resources are I can and should strive for greatness. He was a great workout buddy and can grill a mean steak and chicken, nevermind a proper "kotlet schabowy"...I miss him every day still, 20 Years later,and You John will too be missed greatly by everyone touched by your kind heart. The best people always leave us way too soon. You were an inspiration and positive influence for far many more people than You thought. Rest in Peace, Big Guy, You will be remembered.
I am absolutely astonished by the pure strength in the bicep tendon after watching Eddie Hall's surgery to reattach his tendon, which didn't look very big for the amount of stress it goes through. I can't watch a bicep workout like this without cringing anymore!
If you have lagging body parts that seem like there plateauing this guy will save your life he knows how to make that muscle Pop and grow greatest coach of all time IMO
Tbh I think (no expert so I might be wrong but this is what I observe) Juji's biceps have already really improved since last year. I think the main thing holding his arms back at this point is the long head of the tricep. Compared to John's that's what seems to be missing which is what gives it the more impressive appearance because it really rounds out the back of the arm to match the delts
This is godly. Loved it through and trough. Sure, I'm biased loving all vids but this collab sure was exceptional. I belive my arms grew just from the cheer wholesomeness. 💪🏻
What an awesome collab. Rip John, can’t tell you how much content I’ve been watching of yours. It’s amazing what you dedicated to fitness and sharing knowledge. Love you.
The two most wholesome guys in RUclips fitness. What a great collaboration.
Biggest problem with this collab is juji didnt do a yoyo trick
And they're both named John. Love these guys
My exact thoughts, just two of the kindest hearted fitness guys on youtube. Keep it coming!
comment of the day
Its the first name its gotta be

Shit ..so he actually died ..I thought stupid people were taking the piss ...rip I've just started watching his videos seems like a very knowledgeable guy with great experience..reminds me of my old trainer old-school style
He's was cool guy n humble 😢 ! I try all his routines , works perfect 💪🏿
Rip legend 😢
@@hasnaindurrani6165 he did very sad news
@@lussikongme too love it all still
For real you guys gotta try that lat pulldown supported hammer curl variation!!!
say no more
Big fan of you Juji!
Man ya gotta about all John recommends. Heck he’s the best fitness RUclipsr. No drama no BS.
Do more collab with John,brother..It was really soothing to watch you two working out together
I’d never thought of that before. Genius!
I don’t mind cussing. But the fact that the cuss words get edited out just adds to John’s all American dad wholesome persona and makes me love him even more.
Meh, I respect it, but I like cuss words too
Videos with cussing are not eligible to make money...…..
Makes it so much easier to watch with my girlfriends little girls running around me. When I watch Derek from more plates more dates I have to adjust the volume to very low because of the cussing.
@@SLF1990 her kids first word was ‘trenbolone’?
Lol have to keep the gainz monetized
Juji always seems like a totally genuine and decent dude.
he is - it's not an act - he is the real deal
Was really cool how he seemed so flattered and grateful that John said nice things of him.
A genuinely kind man and Ohio legend. RIP John, will be truly missed.
Jujimufu builds a giant home gym...to go to a gym to work out with the Mountain Dog. Solid choice Juji.
:)
Maybe the two nicest people in the industry
Rest in peace John, you gave so much to the community and beyond. Taken a lot of tips from your training videos, what a legacy you have left ❤
Give me a channel with nothing but Juji and John working out together and I’ll get excited for every video like Saturday morning cartoons.
John looks like the nicest guy in the world but when he trains he looks like he will beat someone’s ass. This has truly become my bible on training. I really love all your videos brother, thank you for them and please keep em coming!
He passed away yesterday
@ who John?
@@mikeggg1979 yes sadly he didnt wake up. Check out the community tab on youtube
What a Mind-F*** it has to be to show up to train with John while he's wearing "I must break you" Rocky shirt.
LOL
When John flexed his arm for measurement I remember the scene from Crocodile Dundee in the 90s... "That's not a knife! This is a knife!"
Crocodile Dundee was a movie from the mid 80s but you really don't even have to specify the year, absolutely everyone is familiar with it or at least I think so maybe the younger generations aren't familiar
@@Bushey4545 Probably watched it in the 90`s lol ;)
I’ve only recently found John meadows videos and I cannot stop watching them! He is was such a good soul🙏
Mr. Meadows, you are the only person I can watch measure a bicep without shaking my head at the tape not capturing the thickest part of a person's arm. I also have tons of respect for how calm and thoughtful you are until you pick up weight and switch into a vicious punisher of muscle fibre.
Rest in peace Mountain Dog Meadows. Thank you for the workout programmes over the years. The hi everybody will never feel the same again. My condolences go out to your family and your fans will ensure your legacy and legend stays strong. Goodbye big man.
Been looking forward to this one. The Dogfather as Ultimate Warrior is all I need
I think he resembles Macho Man. Oh yeeeah!
@@run2fire I think he was referring John Meadows cosplaying as ultimate warrior..

I will definitely be giving this a try. Thanks!
I am going to try this even john liked it, good explanation by the way.
Just found out that John has sadly passed. Such a shame, what an absolute gent. Thoroughly enjoyed watching and listening to him on here. Will be sorely missed...RIP big fella.
A Mountain of a man. Will miss you so much and wish the best for your family and loved ones.

Can't believe this nicest man i've ever seen is gone now i've learned so much from him too❣️😪
Man juji is such a good guy he damn teared up when John was giving him praise at the end y'all are both the best in the biz💪🙌🙌🙌
Oh my gosh, I just heard that John passed in his sleep. He is one of my favorites. Seems like such a nice fellow. My condolences to his family! So sorry
Thanks for everything, John! I thoroughly enjoyed your work and appreciate your work in all areas of life. My heart goes out to your family. Rest in peace
Thank you for your consistently high quality content John.
You both made a very good duet. Thank you for these shared moments and lessons. We miss you so much, John. Rest in Peace forever.
Love how much respect Juji has for John. Both experts and both deeply humble. Love it!
John looked legitimately sad admitting he wished Juji lived closer lol
The amount of wholesome bromance in this video is unparalleled. 💕
RIP John. Hes such a big inspiration for me. The dude was really so smart about his training. I've been adopting a lot of his principles with training in general, and the progress has been absolutely unreal. In just 6 weeks, my arms have no joke grown, so much, and got so much stronger.

The old school guys will never steer you wrong. Right to the point and no bullshit. Keep these videos and wisdom coming!👍💪
Man that was so much more than two cool dudes working out. Wholesale wholesomeness!
The double rope pulldown is by far the best tricep exercise I've done. John's arm routine is just top notch in general. Super setting with smart movements. Great stuff.
John’s shirt is 🔥
Yes these 2 guys together is brilliant!! Both legends, but gotta say Mountain Dog is the OG!
I did my workout alongside your collaberation here ! Really inspired me to push on and do a bit more. Im 49 yrs old and Im still pumping Iron, its never easy and maybe that's why I continue love doing it ! John ....your an inspiration !

John's biceps really are mad. Juji has gotten some super impressive physique gains too.
Dang it of course I did arms yesterday. I can't wait to try this routine. Juji you are a lucky man to train with one of the greatest of all time. Great video, I always learn something new!
John Meadows is simply the best ❤️
John and Jon! John's arms already looked pumped at the beginning of the video!
John, thank you for all this great info over the years! You have made a big difference in people’s lives for the better.
RIP John, you were a giant in our world and will always be the best.
"you sound like me" best compliment from this beast in a training session. partners like that are crucial
I like how when you see people posing sometimes they're not doing it to show off but they're seeing themselves slowly become the ones they look up to.
RIP John Meadows...a true gentleman of the sport
We miss you big guy!!!! Rest In Peace with God!!! One of the most humble bodybuilder ever!!!!
Again one of John's great vids....gladly watch it again.
What's crazy is you have no clue how much you've impacted my life.
Thank you so much John..I was in deep shock to hear you have passed on💔💔 you are a true legend and will be missed 😭😭😭
Not seen Juji in vid for awhile he's looking solid he was always good but damn he's smashing now
Thank you, John! I LOVE seeing antagonistic supersets! Thats exclusively what Ive done for years and people look at me like I'm crazy.
After training with Juji , I wish you could do a session with Brian Shaw !! You share the same positive energy and mentality in life
John you're a legend and are missed.

Two of the best in the business
To John and Juji, great work in this video for trng arms. Simply SUPERB! I hit the like button. Thanks.
I am absolutely astonished by the pure strength in the bicep tendon after watching Eddie Hall's surgery to reattach his tendon, which didn't look very big for the amount of stress it goes through. I can't watch a bicep workout like this without cringing anymore!
Alright hi everybody . I always count on it each video . Love it
2 of my favourite fitness youtubers collaborating! Awesome video!
It's a rare, but appreciated collab when Jon and Jon... I mean Juju get together!
If you have lagging body parts that seem like there plateauing this guy will save your life he knows how to make that muscle
Pop and grow greatest coach of all time IMO
Always look forward to the video collabs with you two, it doesn't get much better than that.
We love you John!!!! RIP brother!!!! Omg I’m so sad!!!!
actually found your channel because of juji :) great to see you guys together again
Jon is the father we all wish we had.
Great workout, love Juji proper nice guy...you guys should do more of these..great chemistry between you!!!
Just 2 of the nicest guys having fun!
I genuinely smiled so many times during this video and it actually made my day better.
That was a cute little wink Juji gave the camera at 12:40ish. Awesome workout video once again too
This guy John was the best I've learned so much from him that's why I can do 12 to 15 reps when I do my work out.
Might be a uncommon question but the camera quality really stuck out to me. What one are you using?
Rest in peace my boy, thanks for being honest and teaching us the way of bodybuilding.
Juji visiting the mountain dog….. great collaboration.
arms are looking absolutely crazy John ! you guys train well together it seems
Rest in peace champ!
John Meadows I apreciate all you do on YT, all your content is great!
I love both you and juji. Great video!
Tbh I think (no expert so I might be wrong but this is what I observe) Juji's biceps have already really improved since last year.

Compared to John's that's what seems to be missing which is what gives it the more impressive appearance because it really rounds out the back of the arm to match the delts
Love when these boys get together!! Always a rad time
I can’t believe that John was only 49. I hope they do a tribute video.
10 more seconds
Okay... again! Thats the best coaching tip. Respect 💪🏼
Juji!!!! Awesome, love how you bring other RUclipsrs into the videos.
Still watching your videos John! Never get old full of great information.
Rest easy big dawg! Miss ya brother!
John mate, I swear I hear a good southern preacher calling on the Holy Spirit when I hear you say 'Fire' on those reps! Love it.
Alright, the algo will be strong with this vid!
This is godly. Loved it through and trough. Sure, I'm biased loving all vids but this collab sure was exceptional. I belive my arms grew just from the cheer wholesomeness. 💪🏻
This video proved that anyone named John (In how ever way you spell it😁) is going to be super awesome, down to earth and pretty damn big n strong 💪😎
I love this channel. I used to be terrible with my form in the gym and John has taught me a lot.
you guys seem like long time friends that grew up watching wrestling together
:)
RIP big guy! One of your hardest sessions, it’s an honor to have stumbled upon your page. 🤞🏽
Those two guys are just off the charts! Loved the collab guys 🙂👍
What an awesome collab. Rip John, can’t tell you how much content I’ve been watching of yours. It’s amazing what you dedicated to fitness and sharing knowledge. Love you.
You had me there for a minute, I was bout to quit Physical Training, and now I'm back at it.
That's the best feeling in the gym, getting a pump when you do arm super set!
This video was awesome! Thanks John and Juji for the laughs and the training tips! You guys are bad ass!
Yep. Killer workout! I need to take a day and do these all. Thanks John - nice to see Juji in the gym with you!
This is probably my favorite training duo in the whole of the interwebs. More please!
