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! Do you ever do face pulls at a horizontal angle, either standing or seated (like on the seated cable row)? I find these stimulate my rear delts more than when I do them from the low pulley position like you demonstrated here...especially with an external rotation.
mountaindog1 bro your channel has changed my workout routine(s) in such a fantastic way.
So so appreciate what you do.
- fellow gym junkie
yes I like those more..
What is the major differences between face pulls... moving the pulley at a lower angle, medium range and higher angles?
Thank you for all the work out videos i turned 68 last month retired i watch your videos every day they work i am getting healrhy working out thank you again for all thr help
Reading these comments from 1 year ago about how classy and a legend John is... makes me miss him even more RIP champ
RIP 💖 you know someone is loved and respected when you've just discovered lifting and seeing these beautiful comments on all his videos.... May you all have peace in your hearts and may we become as awesome as John is
@@skyejacques mq3t5zn2
Glad they released some new videos recently. It was hard to watch at first knowing he’s not really there but I’m glad we get to see him again at least
When did he die?
@@danielcontreras976 i wanna know too
John Meadows is like the Mr Rogers of bodybuilding. Such a great guy. Always positive and encouraging.
I was just thinking "I really like this guy" and then you come along & nicely explain what it is that I'm liking!
Yap bro thank you 💪
My dads the complete opposite
Hell no, mister Rogers was super creepy. Meadows is cool
Got damn your right
I had no idea John has passed. I’m new to lifting and his videos have been soooo helpful. He seems like such a great guy. Rest In Peace John and prayers to his family !
Amen
Yeah RIP John lm still a big believer in his teachings
Same here. By the time I learner about John and these amazing videos, he had already passed. But his legacy will live on forever. Out of the thousands of exercise/bodybuilding videos out there, these ones here on his channel seem to work best for me. Something about his approach and the way he explains things makes it so easy to understand and execute. They're direct, short and sweet. No fluff or filler. If he needs to explain, he'll reference his life long experience and decades of training with the best. Some guys are great bodybuilders, but not great teachers. Some are great teachers but not great bodybuilders. John was the rare few great bodybuilders and great teachers. Thank you to John's family for continuing to upload videos till this day. Sometimes it maybe same or similar to past videos, but hearing/seeing it again just might make it sink in this time.
Also check out Seth Feroce. He also mentions how good John was !!!
Juice makes you huge but also kills you. He made the best of it. Rip.
this man deserves the whole fitness community as a sub. dudes a fucking legend
:)
Seriously💯💜
I hope these vids stay active on the platform for John’s family.
They definitely will be active from me watching so much
I still come to his channel and like the vids I didn't press like, and comment on some of them for the algorhytm, and I hope more people will do the same. The man was a treasure and left us too soon, not to mention his family...
How did he die?
@@moukbu4235 heart attack I believe.
@@moukbu4235pulmonary embolism pal
03:07 "That was quick. I'm back." I wish that were real life too. RIP John.
Who is that classy man who is taking time to help others?
Answer: John Meadows
I feel so comforted each time I watch John’s videos. I love that he always said ‘it’s ok’ with the variations. Truly a legend
Whenever training gets stale or things arent firing right, I always come back to John's videos and learn something new even though i've watched them. Proof of the man's legacy. Legends live forever!
Amen
I was just ganna right this comment, as im looking back just trying to refresh my mind :D yea Legend! I feel like his tutorials are just the right length and they follow the same explanation pattern. It's just real familiar at this point, not fluff.
For real….
That part when John says, ‘as you fatigue you’ll use some traps…that’s ok’…..
That is why he is such a respected figure, person, human, and father.
He’d always talk to you like a loving dad, who aimed helping you develop the best ways to target your muscles, instead of talking you down with excessive rigor.
Whoever doesn’t like John had to get their head checked cause there’s definitely something wrong there…😅
I haven’t had the courage to watch one of John’s videos since his passing and this is a reminder that I have been missing out. He explains things like no other, such a great coach, humble, an inspiration, truly missed.
But we gotta.... That is how we build his legacy and keep him alive.....
Preach! " Not every movement has to be full range of motion "..I agree to the up most!
Utmost*
Agreed...do your full range of motion with weight you can handle, then go heavy and griz out whatever shitty reps you can. This most notably works for rear delts for sure....
John,
I think I speak for the fitness community when I say this: Thank you for sharing your workouts, tips and tricks with us, in addition to being incredibly down to earth.
welcome!
If John’s family reads these, just know he helped a lot of people and that we are extremely grateful for him and you.
what happened ?
Thanks for taking time to make these videos and share with us. I'm 72 and you are KILLING me but I refuse to stop!!!!!
Keep cranking!
Rest Easy John, hope you lived a well and fulfilled life❤️thank you for sharing your fitness gems and being so open
John had such a calm and sincere way about him and his training tips are pure gold for me, RIP great man you live on in my pursuits of staying in shape.
Rip Big man.. Such a Big inspiration and have definitely help my improve my physique and training in general..!
what happened ?
Swings...... I tried these one day. I hadn't had that kind of burn in a while. I started throwing these in fairly regularly and I see the growth above what I was seeing prior. Thanks for sharing these training tips John.
I love how humble this guy is
Rest In Peace Sir
You are a LEGEND and will be MISSED dearly
That face pull looks suspiciously like an upright row. Athlean X wants to know your location.
it does, I wasnt thinking on that one
@@mountaindog1 ur doing an internal rotation on the facepull not external. A bit misleading
Mr cavalier are you watching lol
@@bribas6847 are you drunk?
@@Skiller96512 what? Your question doesn't relate on the topic.
"And that's okay"... love this guy and how he explains things
Just discovered this channel, dude has great way about him that makes me want to listen. I'm reading he passed away, how sad.
R I P john,much remembered,never forgotten still doing all his exercises, LEGEND, hope family are doing OK
John the type of guy to teach you awesome stuff and I thank him for it eternally
A Mountain of a man. Will miss you so much and wish the best for your family and loved ones.
I found this man after his passing which is a bit sad. But the man lives on and is still teaching
Man the good ones always leave earth to early. RIP John. your videos helped a lot.
John, I'm 54 and have been weight training since my college days. Your series of three exercises targeting different muscle groups is a game changer! I have literally cut down may routines to follow your exercises and they are killers - 4 /5 sets 6 to 8 reps, three different exercises, that's all she wrote. Thank you, this is definitely a more time-efficient way of exercising not to mention that it will kick your behind if done correctly.
thank you!
Something I’ve really liked are rear cable flies on the cable machine. Constant tension on the delts.
One of my favorite too I smoke the shit out of theme with that one
Definitely, love those
Absolutely, always get a crazy burn doing those!
Thank you dog. You will continue to influence bodybuilding even in death. RIP . Thank you to your family for keeping these videos up.
Thanks to your tips and explanations my shoulders are getting nicely capped! Rear delts have always been a problem but now I'm seeing results. Thanks again 👍
I like your style MD. Old school. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Plain and simple. Great content. Ty.
By the time I learned about John and this amazing channel, he had already passed. But his legacy will live on forever. Out of the thousands of exercise/bodybuilding videos out there, his seem to work best for me. Something about his approach and the way he explains things makes it so easy to understand and execute. They're direct, short and sweet. No fluff, no filler, no fat. Most guys are good bodybuilders, but not good teachers. Some are good teachers but not good bodybuilders. John was the rare few great bodybuilders and great teachers. Thank you to John's family for continuing to upload videos till this day. Some videos my be similar or cover the same topic as past videos (not complaining at all) but sometimes hearing/seeing it again makes it sink in to fully understand it. Sometimes it takes me a couple times to really understand what is being said to the point where I can execute it properly.
He was such a down to earth guy & so So knowledgeable! RIP Big fella😞
Your tips for rear delts gave me best pump on that area ever. I used to move heavier weights and allow my traps to take over, was focussing entirely on scapula retraction until your tips on isolating rear delt. Feel pretty dumb for not realising the difference before, but the feeling speaks for itself. Rear delt flies done correctly kick the shit out of your rear delts.
That first excercise is my absolute fave for rear delts. Really really hits them.
Still absorbing this man's infinite wisdom. Legends never die.
Saw John do these delts "swings" on a video a few weeks ago and decided to incorporate them into my routine. SO every time I hit failure, I start these. WOW do they light up the delts. I use them on rear, side and front delt raises. Brilliant addition to the mix.
John Meadows makes another video specially for rear delts.
Me: Thumbs up without having even seen it yet :)
Alberto Rangel, I agree bro. Don’t even need to see the video to know it’s high quality
SIR every video I watch of yours makes me want to run back to the gym for another session. I’m self taught via UA-cam videos and your are extremely inspiring 🙏🏾
John you are and were an amazing man! These exercises you've showed us absolutely BLEW UP my rear delts!! That swing is a gamechanger after failure💪🏽💜💯
Awesome a man with a scientific knowledge and approach, that is what works the muscle. Methods, priority training, training to failure, antagonists training.
Best UA-cam channel for lifting, thanks John! Your videos are perfect
For someone who lifts at home with nothing but barbells and dumbbells, I think the Muscle Snatch is a fantastic rear delts exercise. It may not be as concentrated as the exercices shown in the video, but it sure helps with injury prevention. I have noticed that all old-time weightlifters had at least decent rear delts, and they were doing a lot of snatches, cleans and various high pulls.
John is the very best educator on UA-cam fitness. So much experience and wisdom. I've been training hard for years and know my way around a gym but even still I have learned and gained immensely from these videos. When I'm ready to prep for my first show I'm definitely hiring John.
I'm coming back to the gym after about a 25 year absence and I'm using John's videos as my goto. He just had a fantastic manner about him
Great video! I did the bent-over DB lateral raises for rear delts a few weeks ago...full reps and the controlled swinging 1/2 reps you mention in the video....my rear delts were on fire!
These three hit the rear delts precisely and effectively! I'm gonna try twice a week as following along your advice. Thanks John as always!
I like that John gives a lot of good tips on upping the intensity. Feel the burn!
Absolutely love shoulders/delts day! Thanks John!
I’ve learned so much from you thank you John
I like your videos . I learn something new each time I watch one ‼️‼️
Best videos on the tube....always keep coming back. Educated so many out here. Catch ya on the flipside John...You're the man!
Thanks John. You are always the voice of reason. I really appreciate your videos as you always have a way to inspire me to get out of my comfort zone. You are truly one of the good guys within the world of weight training.
I do seated rear flies, thats how i have learned to connect with them the best. I do a short rom, the muscle is only about 3 or 4" long, and my focus has been on learning to isolate them and keep my traps and everything else out of the movement, to make my rear delt work better later. For me and maybe im wired odd, when my chest is on my lap, grip pronated, i have to focus on driving my elbows forward/ away from my body as the weight comes up, so i can feel my delts.
Mountain dog, I don't why but you make sense thank you for all your dedicated videos, God bless you my friend.
I rewatch these rear delt videos all the time, rear delts, you gotta have em
I’ve been struggling to hit rear delts. Super helpful, John. Thank you!
Hi John,
Thanks for providing such great insight beyond the exercises. Great to know the in and outs of being geared and natural. I have had a people ask questions about this for years. You'e one of the few pros. Who is not afraid to provide an open and ojective opinion.
I am a 61 year old personal trainer. I started lifting 43 years ago. Some things have changed and some things have not. What we all inherently knew about training back in the day has clearly been validated today with studies and science.
Keep it coming John, great work!
thank you!
How many people feel like this man was talking to you directly?
He was the greatest!
I agree 100% ! Just finished working out my shoulders and those first 2 are fire !
I REALLY loved this vid!! So refreshing to see a guy who's a Regular cat. Talks like u would in a REGULAR conversation. No UA-cam mannerisms & over the top sales pitch bells & whistles. Str8 to the point (which is WHY WE CLICK VIDEOS) 10 outta 10!!!
I really love the reverse rear delt fly. I follow the Yates approach of training rear delts after back. I also use a seated row with a wide bar attachment pulling to my chest. Great video.
This is pure wisdom
I freakin love this guy! John you are a legend my man! My muscles have grown so much since I’ve been following you! Thank you for all of your hard work and great vids 🙏🏼
YES JOHN! Always look forward to your rear delt videos!
I'm going to throw this into the 3 exercises for capped delts you did and that I've been doing..
The funny thing is everything I've ever learned about bodybuilding I learned from the real bodybuilders not from gurus. When I had a shoulder pain it's because I forgot to work my rear delts.The a way I corrected it was the exercises you just showing in the video. So this exercises is your bread-and-butter to bring up your rear delts you absolutely right Your channel is very useful and educational keep up the good work.
thank you!!!
Because of Johns videos my bench press is now over 300lbs. Thanks John & family🙏
Those first two are what I have been using for about 6 months. I use a bench to stabilize my body for the rear delt flyes by placing the bench a few notches from horizontal , and side delt by placing the bench between 75 or 80 degrees from horizontal. Excellent tips!
Holy hell...those swings at the end of the rear fly sets....you weren’t kidding!
My shoulder issue was fixed after i started doing 3x10 face pulls after every session. Interesting.
My scapular issue was also corrected with face pulls.
Same here. It helped my posture.
Might have to try these see how they feel, been suffering with impingement ruining my press exercises
These are fucking facts! Same with me.
Same helped by prostate
I, like many, have watched videos from folks who gave it a go, yet never connected. John, in my own opinion, has by far the most relevant criteria for health care of the body. Yes, he shows the many avenues to body building, yet he also gives us a look at what he feels will give us a better feel for how each individual may adapt to keeping ourselves in a healthier form. RIP John.
UA-cam comes up trumps again for allowing me to experience this man’s coaching skills 👍
One of life’s gems 💫✨🏆🥇
This is the hardest exercise to explain to beginner - rear shoulder.
The easiest way to explain is, just tell them to copy the movement they do when they put the smart phone in the front pocket
I love this dude.....
Thanks for all the workout tips!! I love it!!! Please continue it’s awesome
He still is my biggest motivator in the gym, gone but NEVER forgotten 🙏
My favorite is a seated cable row to the high chest. I use a bar that I can get my elbows far back and squeeze my upper back. It's a very similar motion to 5:04.
I love this guy!!!!
Absolutely blown away! Love these videos! Thank you.
What I really like about your channel is you demonstrate the exercises. Some people don't even demonstrate the exercises and it's all talk.
Agree 1000 % putting rear dlts first.
Also until I lowered the lbs and really concentrated on the feel of the rear delt they responded.
I'm sure ud agree the rear delt is a tiny muscle compared to front & side so therefore its seems u really need to feel it work to isolate it.
Going heavy I can guarantee their not working that rear delt but everything else around it.
Great video as always John
My current favorite is a cable cross for rear delts because everyone’s always on the pec deck and the lower chest cable fly is always open. I definitely want to add that upright row version of a face pull
Maybe give lying down ones a go. They're great.
I don't think this man will ever leave my feed. Love all his advice even when it's against what other people say R.I.P. wherever you are I am sure you training someone wherever your spirit flys.
We should all be so grateful for John's videos. Thank you Sir.
You will be really missed, and of course remembered.
I have weak shoulders but I think these tips will help me improve in that area.
I actually learned a hell of a lot from Mr. Meadows, especially when it comes to rear delt workouts. The Pec Deck Reverse Fly is now a staple of my shoulder workouts and I've seen great results. If it weren't for John, I never would have known about it. Thank you my friend and as always, may you rest in eternal peace. You helped a lot of people.
Thanks for all the amazing content, motivation and positive vibes…a real light in the world …Rest In Power 💪🙏
"Absolute Fire" John Meadows 2019
Swingers were punishment damn haven't felt my rear delts fire up like that, thank u!
RIP to a legend. I have always loved his outlook and knowledge. I’ve been using exercises he recommends for years now and the results have always spoken for themselves. The way he explains the movements really helps get the job done. He’s probably doing heavenly hammer curls as I type this.
Tried the incline swings this evening- kicking. Definitely an exercise added to the arsenal. Thank you John!
A seated cable row (with a wide-grip bar) looks very similar to the second exercise. It definitely gives me a burn that I don't get from doing just the fly (although I had great results from just the fly) I will definitely give these variations a try.
I can't stand how every shirt you have on I want.
If your nice, he might sell em to you, sweat and all 😁
Dude i thought the exact same thing!
@saintquinn007 where can u buy them?
@saintquinn007 damn im from europe
Yeah, sawlid🛸
I would like to thank his family for posting videos of Mr. John.... He is still helping me even after his death.... God bless you...
Thanks MD!
I completely agree about the rear flys. I do wonder if most of the gurus actually are avid bodybuilders.
Statistical data may present a possibility but whenever the muscle I'm working is cramping by deliberate tension or isn't able to execute its function, then I know enough. Variety of angles for me is of absolute importance to keep my mind focused and in the set.
I think most people forget that going to the gym is also actual training in which you need to be humble, assess, reflect, adjust and experiment.
