rest in peace john, brings tears to my eyes. The love this man had for bodybuilding and his class and humbleness is unmatched. My thoughts go out to the family Meadows and friends
Hey John, my dad was always overweight and I showed him your channel and narrated the videos for him(he doesn’t speak english). He got so moved by your videos with your kids and your heart scare that he started working out with me. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart, you may not realize it but you changed my life for the better!!! Keep the content comming
A part of what I enjoy about your vids is that although you're a pro and train like Mountaindog with some screws loose, you're cordial and open-minded. At 30, it's great for me to see an older lifter changing the toxic gym and parenting culture I grew up in. You're a great example that you don't have to be an asshole to be serious or competitive. Big thanks from a fan over here in Zambia. Stay safe everyone.
Only problem is the chlorine and pool chemicals, even chlorine in the water you shower in can be an issue so some people get shower filters, but I have well water so not really an issue. Some people into dry fasting won't even shower during it as skin can absorb enough of the water to break a water fast, and also negative things in the water. Killing bacteria on your body isn't good either, good microbes on your skin is good too not just in the gut. I try to just stick to deodorant salts under arms to help control BO and that's it. It's a lot harder following a diet that's mostly keto and based on high quality animal foods because it increases BO, but that's actually a good thing, it means you're producing hormones optimally. I kinda wish people would learn to just take the bad microbes with the good instead of just try to kill them all, which just lowers natural immunity to the bad, if things were naturally in balance the bad microbes would seldom be an issue but for too many people things are naturally out of balance and really difficult to near impossible to correct these days, not enough people are in good enough health to handle the bad microbes, but a lot of the ways we cope with it just makes it worse and tends to create super bugs. Properly raised 100% grass-fed beef tends to be antibiotic-free for a reason, they tend not to get sick, grain-fed beef does. Humans are no different, most people's diets are more messed up than they realize. Fat from grain-fed animals is about as bad as refined seed oils, in some ways worse because animals store toxins in their fat. Fat and oils you eat tend to get stored directly as fat, rather than converted into fat like other macros(or for herbivores, plant fiber gets converted to healthy fats), so fat from grain-fed animals practically is like seed oils, high in omega 6's and linoleic acid, just not as high. Same with humans, doing intermittent fasting and keto where you're going through body fat stores a lot, if your fat stores are too high in omega 6 and toxins, you'll get symptoms from it when burning through the stores. But over time it'll probably speed up correcting omega imbalances in the body, as long as you stick to quality fats when you eat, doing just one keto meal a day you'll burn through more fat stores, and store a lot of the fat you eat in one meal. Fat from quality animal foods is ideal, as it's the closest to your own body fat, coconut oil is great too. I don't do really strict keto and not usually OMAD or anything especially since I started training at least once a week. I do first half of training fasted, then after completing upper body I'll have raw honey and grass-fed whey, do upper body stretches and give carbs enough time to get into muscle, then cardio on a bike to warmup legs, then do legs. Next time I do lower body fasted and upper after whey/honey. Otherwise I just have carbs if I feel like cortisol is getting too high to sleep well, I'll have some raw honey before sleep, but my stress is generally great on keto and I sleep better if anything, I think it's largely genetic or maybe people not giving keto adaptation enough time. Raw honey is already broken down into readily available glucose and fructose so it's great for post/intra workout where faster absorption helps for gaining lean muscle after fasted training. It's kind of a post/intra/pre-workout all at once. It's just enough carbs to maintain some adaptation to using them efficiently for fuel, and get lean muscle gain and performance benefits. Also doing mostly keto helps maintain gains if you only train once a week, but train to failure the last set of every exercise, and I'm not afraid to make sure I'm eating around the clock and enough to get gains 4-5 days a week, then I can cut 2-3 days a week with 1-2 meals a day and stay lean so I might just train once a week especially since I do manual labor weekdays. I'm sorry for the long comment, I can turn just about anything into a rant lol. I should really just get a camera and start a channel on this since I'm actually getting serious about it, but I've only been training 3 months and I'm 34 so it'll be a while before I get enough results for anyone to take me seriously, probably 9 more months.
I also know these kinds of things tend to stress people out to think about or like it's ruining all the fun in life, I get it I've been there. But after a while you get past that, and it actually helps stress if anything when you learn these things and get more serious about avoiding negative things as much as you can and feel so much better. I'd been getting better about it for years, then getting into training just seemed like a natural progression once I realized my diet was already on point for nutrition and near the protein I'd need to build lean muscle, and you hardly need a calorie surplus as a natty at my age, like 100-200 calories is fine, maybe 200-300(or about a 10-15% surplus for me) training days, then either maintenance when doing 1-2 meals or a 200-300 deficit nothing too crazy. I actually feel the opposite way about some things too, like realizing a lot of veggies aren't as good or necessary for health as people think especially when you remove the negative things they help make up for in the first place, and high quality animal foods are healthy and I love eating them. That, and sun screen is actually negative and can actually increase cancer risk if it causes vitamin D deficiency, and zinc oxide can absorb in the skin if it's not non-nano and potentially cause high zinc especially if you're diet is high in animal foods. Getting regular enough sun to have a good enough tan to prevent burning, getting sun is actually very healthy and beneficial, just keep it in controlled regular doses to avoid burning, rather than avoid the sun and then need sun screen to avoid burning in more extreme cases of sun exposure. Even 15-30 minutes with as little clothing as you can get away with during peak UV index as often as you can should work to get skin used to sun exposure. Taking astaxanthin can help too, all the cells of the body take it in and it helps protect skin from sun burn/damage and could probably resist skin cancer too, probably far more effective than sun screen, but it might take a couple months of taking it for the skin cells to take enough in. Helps the eyes too.
Such a good hearted,level headed genuine individual you are John.. family is at the heart of all you do and it shows so naturally. Nice to see Jonathan too, he's camera shy compared to Alexander lol. Inspirational in all you do... and you have kept me going over here in lockdown with the resistance band videos. Back to the gym now though 💪 thank the lord. All my respect.. Delboy from Birmingham England.
John, I was a swimmer for over 10 years in hs and college. It is great conditioning, strengthens the legs, core, etc. and helped me tremendously when I discovered weightlifting! Great to see them learning!!!
John, great video thank you for a look into your day and the diet information. I was a rescue swimmer many years ago in US Navy. I do cardio 2 times a week. I agree with you and still swim today. I think it’s the best cardio you can do. I am 40 and I also weigh 240 pounds. I find swimming gives me the best ROI, and it’s easy on my joints.
Probably one of the best videos. Shows the real side of the day to day. I think we (speaking for myself) get to hung up with what type of food to eat and when to it, especially when you are working full time and have a family. John, you are one of the most original, down to earth guys in the business.
John, your a good soul man, love the advice and the attitude towards nutrition and working out. Watching your videos keeps me motivated, inspired and most importantly happy :)
Great video as always. What a great dad and, mentor those boys have. Keeping them in shape and, giving them their own responsibilities. They seems very mature for their age.
Wow John ! People should follow your example and have your attitude. So refreshing. One day i would like to start my own fitness channel and if i do it's going to be with the same mindset as yours. Thanks man.
John: I like to get most of my nutrients from the sun, and the feelings of gratitude I get from my family. I’ll supplement this with 4oz of cod and 1 cup of blueberries. Thanks for the video John.
Honestly, love watching John Measows every video. Such a positive guy, always great info, always learning something new from you. Even if im not listening carefully i still learn 🤣. Seriously John deserves more subscribers. I can’t believe some of the youtubers got millions of subscribers...... john should have billions of subscribers......
John...Turkey Burgers are my staple! One difference that I do and try this with the tortilla. Sautee mushrooms and onions. After you cook the patty...place the turkey into the tortilla with the sauteed mushrooms and onions. I usually use one pepper jack cheese slice. A1 or Heinz 57...not too much. Both are fairly low in carb..A1 has 2grams..while 57 has 4 grams. I fold the tortiall over like a taco an then fold the two sides in. Lay the tortilla in the same pan that you sauteed the onions...to just brown the tortilla on both sides. This melts the cheese and I swear...its one of the best things I eat! My wife says...I'm going to turn into a turkey...but man...theses things are good. The calories come out to about 425... with about 40grams of protein..and maybe 10 net carbs! It's a killer meal! Try it and see if you enjoy it as much as I do. I use the same tortillas! It's like a turkey burger/quesadilla.
Since I started February eating in a caloric deficit, I've used Mission tortillas for a lot of my meals. Either with liquid egg whites for breakfast, or chicken, salmon, tilapia, or tuna wraps. I have lost 18 pounds since then, probably more since then if not counting my minor muscle gains :P Also, I've been eating turkey burgers too. I used to eat two during one meal with cheese, which is 760 calories, but I now make one double turkey burger to cut back on more calories, for a total of 580 calories.
John you are surely missed by everyone I just got to know your videos and I have seen the love you have for your family and that is fantastic and you are loved very much by everyone I'm writing this as if you are still with us because you will always be with your family and friends thank you John you have definitely inspired myself and for sure others.
It's so cool seeing a dad being a dad in video by someone who is generally known for being a pro Bodybuilder. This contrast between beastial, hard Training image of a Bodybuilder and the supportive dad is so awesome. Also your son is a legend on that JoJo. My God he will be slaying everything with that. Holy hell is that stuff impressive.
John is literally the nicest really jacked guy out there! Some people think that all big, muscled guys are like "I'm gonna kill everyone who's even look at me" - John is great stereotype crusher :)
John, you mentioned turkey burgers. I probably go through two boxes of them a week. They are so super easy to cook and super lean. I normally toss two in the pan with a bit of olive oil, toss a cup of jasmine rice over the top and a half avocado and mush it all together, or leave the avocado out and add in a bit of bbq sauce and mix it all up. Super easy! I think Fouad does something similar with his fish and rice. What shocks me is how you are retaining your size with that light of a diet! You look super healthy considering what all is going on.
One of the best ever trainers and mentors. John you are missed by many, and by many of us that never even had the pleasure of meeting you or getting to know you beyond the videos. RIP.
i like swimming on rest days, just sort of float there and do some slow lengths strech out the muscles a bit, feels good on the joints with the weightlessness too.
John I’m from Cleveland area and the Cleveland Kraut is also a staple in my diet as well! Great stuff ! Keep up with the great videos and I’m glad to see you’re healthy!
Huge respect to you sir and love from India...especially through all that you have gone through and today being the inspiration of many...it's not my first time watching your videos but whenever i have watched your videos i have been helped a lot which has certainly helped me build my physique...
Wow his his size and calorie consumption takes some hard work and knowledge. John Meadows was highly intelligent I love his info! Gone to soon, life’s not fair R.I.P. Mountain Dogg ✊💪
Mr Meadows , as a Mexican I take offense with those horrible looking Quesadillas. Please come down here to treat you the real thing. We would be really honored to have you visit. Great video!
Those shirts were looking pretty killer. I may have to try that with some of my old band shirts from back in the day. An your boy's yoyo skill are pretty wild. Great eye hand coordination.
john is like the dad of the fitness industry and greg is the crazy uncle
and will and Jeff are the sons
It's amazing to think that they were both on stage at the same time at some point.
And Greg is also a doctor.
Wow that is spot on 😂😂😂
and greg is the parrot from aladin
rest in peace john, brings tears to my eyes. The love this man had for bodybuilding and his class and humbleness is unmatched. My thoughts go out to the family Meadows and friends

There’s something special about mountain dog. Not everyone can be a family man and a professional bodybuilder/coach of his level ✊
a family man through & through
a genuine example of not letting your passions get in the way of what else is important
Im glad to see your doing well John. God bless!
Thanks so much

Appreciate your family values & authenticity. Enjoy seeing your kids be a part of your videos.
Our pleasure!
This was NOT a full day of eating... It was "A day in the life of John Meadows"
Which is even better!
hope you enjoyed!
Thank you sir. It's nice to see someone who is not so stuck up.
Swimming is so underrated as a kids’ activity. It’s the only sport skill I still use as an adult. Have fun!!!

You're already looking bigger. Really good to see you back to normal again.

Love this John! I work in the Water Safety field and this life-skill is so so important. Also one of the best cardio's out there!
Couldn't agree more!

glad to see you doing well John .
Okay Hi John Meadows everybody's here!
John, you mentioned turkey burgers. I probably go through two boxes of them a week. They are so super easy to cook and super lean. I normally toss two in the pan with a bit of olive oil, toss a cup of jasmine rice over the top and a half avocado and mush it all together, or leave the avocado out and add in a bit of bbq sauce and mix it all up.

Great to see you pumping out content John. Love you include your kids in your videos too.
More to come!
I'm laughing my ass off watching Alexander with his yoyo. That kid is AWESOME at yoyo ~
One of the best ever trainers and mentors. John you are missed by many, and by many of us that never even had the pleasure of meeting you or getting to know you beyond the videos. RIP.

Hey John. My guess is about 2000. Awesome yo yo trick as always Alexander 👊 Love your t shirts too. Good job 👍
Thanks 👍
dude this video is super chill really enjoyed it
Glad you enjoyed!
Mr Meadows , as a Mexican I take offense with those horrible looking Quesadillas. Please come down here to treat you the real thing. We would be really honored to have you visit. Great video!
Those shirts were looking pretty killer. I may have to try that with some of my old band shirts from back in the day. An your boy's yoyo skill are pretty wild. Great eye hand coordination.
I had to like and comment because of Alexander! You are talented👏🏼
Cute kids. Mine are grown now. Enjoy those days!!
Thank you, I will
Awesome video John, as always !
Thanks for watching
I wish John Meadows was my dad:(

He’s all of our dads

Noted!

John is a great parent figure. It's not about kids always winning. It's about kids giving their best effort in everything that they do.
Nice to see you doing well John.
