- Today's video is a tribute for one of the bodybuilding greats, John Meadows! John was one of the first people I ever stumbled upon when starting my fitness journey and really motivated/inspired me to go to the gym.
I wanted to honour him by making a video dedicated to everything John Meadows. I eat like him, train like him and share with you a little more about him beyond the workout videos we see.
RIP Mountain Dog. You will be missed.
Hope you enjoy the video! Thank YOU for watching!

John was a legend . Good on you for doing this . He was revered by many . Just a salt of the earth guy who loved to train . Wish we had more people like him in the industry. RIP John.
Couldn’t agree more, too many “idols” and not enough mentors. John was the man. RIP
We miss him. Thanks John for what you did for the bodybuilding industry and for giving us the Meadows Row ❤️❤️
Why are you talking here
He can’t hear you
@@huskiehuskerson5300 not talking to you
@@j7mes934 neither should u
@@j7mes934 real classy, smh
John Meadows taking 16 years and 14 attempts to get his pro card is inspiring. Dude never gave up when most people would in less than half that time.
The losers who never succeed give up (like me)
Just think what he could've done with his life if he dedicated it to helping others instead of just trying to look a certain way. He definitely wasted his life.
John and Ollie in heaven: “That’s my boy.”
Bro😭
Imagine them laughing and trying to outbench one another for all eternity 🥺🥺
Felt that sh to the bone
John is working up to benching as much as Ollie
We will all join them😇
Hi Will you’re the one who encouraged me to loose weight, 60 pounds down and now I’m bulking. Keep up the good content!
So happy to hear that! Keep it up!
Nice pfp. I've been losing weight too, will and greg are some big helps in making me get to my goal weight, 4kg down so far.
@@soulkingabstr4kt887 that’s awesome man!
That's amazing!
The more the days go by since John Meadows passed, the more I realize how much of an influence he had on me. I started eating cream of rice/wheat after watching his concoction video. The Meadow's Row is a staple back exercise. He made a video on how to engage your chest and lats for better activation and I still use those warm up tips. His advice was second to none and I really appreciated his knowledge and kind demeanor.
This was an awesome tribute and I'm sure he would have loved it.
I met him, only so briefly at an event, and he was fantastic to those of us who were there, taking time to actually talk to us. Thanks for your tribute to him Will.
I wasn't aware of John Meadows until he passed (I'm just now getting into fitness), This was a great tribute to him Will. Great video, thanks for doing this.
Me, neither. I'm disappointed that I didn't watch John sooner. He has such a wealth of information on his channel that I don't know how I missed it.
I can relate, I only discovered Meadows after his passing and am only realising now what I was missing out on. I love watching his videos, so informative.
So happy to see this video pop up in my feed. I always went to John’s channel whenever I wanted more insight into training a body part, nutrition or anything else related to fitness really. He shared a gold mine of knowledge for free, way more information on his channel than most other people are trying to sell you for money.
Such a quality human being that appreciated life to the fullest, loved his family, loved what he did and wanted to help people. Rest easy Mountain Dog
I was fortunate enough to meet John when he was 18 at the Mr. Cincinnati in 1990. We stayed in touched over the years and in the late 90;s went to Columbus and trained back for a summer... brutal . We got together this February at a newer favorite SUSHI place. Thank you for this video.
“A bear out swimming a beaver” might be the most Canadian thing I’ve ever heard
The sound of the intro gives me good vibes Every time
John Meadows helped me so much with my nutrition and training when i was younger. He helped me get over the newbie gains phase.
Rest In Peace Legend😓🥀🙏
John Meadows was not just a huge loss to the bodybuilding community but to the world. Someone who you know was a good man without meeting him. Will saw it. Will, continue on your path. John would be happy to see a tribute made by you.
This was the video we all needed❤️ thank you Will🙏
Good on you Will. John Meadows was an incredible person, great way to honor him.
RIP John. Seemed like such a genuine dude from the vids I’ve watched of him
Around 90% of Will's content is actually just veiled jokes about him nutting yet he still manages to somehow be wholesome and informative, ridiculous.
Great and thoughtful video Will! Thanks to you for always bringing the positivity and humor to everything you do!
thank you for the tribute he was a beast and he taught us a lot gonna miss him a lot his aproach about training was immense
I stumbled upon Mountain dog after he passed unfortunately but gosh dang did he give me a million valuable tips. Good job Will for extending John's reach even further!
R.I.P. JOHN!!! ;-; we will miss you so much.
Love this William, I'm sure you and John would have gotten along famously!
Side note I've eaten and trained like John (well, to the best of my ability) for three years now and I'm in the best shape of my life.
Great tribute video to John. His workout programs are crazy intense. I didn’t know he swam for his cardio.
Thanks Will I met John a couple of times truly a Great Man!
John and Will bringing positivity to the Fitness community 💪🏼
Excellent video for a tribute. RIP John
I never met John, but would pass him at the gym often. He lived just down the road from me. Sad to see anyone go, especially someone who seems so likable.
Finally somebody in youtube who is real and trains like a natural. I use the same principles Will, no need for crazy volume if you have high intensity in the equation. Keep up the good work.
One of the best to ever do it. So cool seeing a compilation of a bunch of John's methodologies all in one video too. You're great for doing this Will!
One of the few youtubers whose videos I eagerly wait for
Good vid bro, ty for keeping John's philosophies and training alive & i hope whoever watches this visits his channel and can learn something to improve their training
"that's solid 2"
"Did great... looked like an 8"
(even the 2 was generous! Will, you had good coaching but you haven't been practising!)
Thank you for the video man, John will last in our memory forever. ❤️
Great Tribute to the great Mountain Dog!
I looked up to John a lot. Not just for training, but for Fatherhood guidelines as well. Great video, Will!
Will… We want to see the YoYo tricks… his kiddo is incredible!!
Love this 😂
I was almost sure he would attach them in this video. He obviously hasn't been watching John's videos
Those hammer curls using the lat pulldown seat are a great idea!
You should've bought one of his programs and followed that. It wouldn't even be a waste of money since all his programs are crazy good.
Two of my favorite fellas. John changed my outlook on training. Never been shaken up so much by the loss of someone I never got the chance to meet. Grade A human!
John seemed like the nicest guy. I really wish I could’ve met him. Even though he had tons of followers/comments he always took the time to reply to my dm’s and comments. His videos always had such a friendly tone to them. I really miss seeing new video notifications from him. I’m going to eat some cream of rice with chocolate protein powder and sugar free Hershey’s syrup in honor of him today. Best wishes to his friends and family ❤️
Thanks Will, RIP John Meadows
Respect for this video, well done Will
Thanks!
I feel like Will could definitely be the Clown Actor in IT. Don’t know why, maybe I’m not used to the smile but keep doing what your doing Will!!! Killin It!
Trained my heart by watching this video, nice tribute Will. Keep up the content.
John will be greatly missed. I am glad for his family that his legacy will live on through those he influenced. His life is captured through his youtube content.
Rip John the most positive guy ever
Best UA-camr! Thank you for your content!
Thanks Frankie!
Gotta admit I was alittle bummed out that Will didn’t start the video with “Alright, hi everybody, Will Tennyson here.”🤣
I was too. missed opportunity.
Hi Will, thank you for this wonderful video on a great human being, who meant a lot to many people. Just two fun facts from a John Meadows fan, that you might like:
John actually was a huge lover of donuts, he even wore some of his famous gimmicky t-shirts proclaiming his love of them. He did like pancakes even more though. He was called Mountaindog because he loved Bernese Mountain dogs, which he had as a child, and when he needed an internet handle on the early online bodybuilding forums like T-Nation, he chose the name Mountaindog1. Over time his training philosophy became associated with this name and it just stuck.
Once again, thank you for the video Will. I encourage anyone to watch John's old videos, there's tons of nuggets of wisdom in there, not just about training and diet, but on life as well.
missing the legend RIP John
the faces of will in the beginning of the video are satisfying haha
John: one tablespoon of peanut butter *picks up an entire shovel* 🥄 😅💗
I admired John for his love, dedication and passion for bodybuilding. It’s a great loss to the bodybuilding community. Thank you John Meadows for giving your life to this amazing sport. Rest In Peace.
Will swimming and running is absolutely adorable!
How can someone do smart and funny and amazing at hockey be so ungraceful?
How doesn’t matter, that it is is gold.
XOXOXO
BTW for the Q people
Did you notice John had a cross that said blessed (Christian) and a Punisher shirt?
He died unexpectedly of a pulmonary embolism at 49
Will has really changed my view on fitness. I used to be all about chasing the number as fast as possible but watching your videos has shown me that the process should also be enjoyable and how to live a simple life nutrition wise. Thank you for making this video!
Nice tribute in typical will style
This was needed for one of the best guys in the community, as always this tribute proves how much you care about the community
"I'm not the best swimmer"
don't worry will,sometimes i feel like I'm gonna drown in the shower
Tbh i never really heard of the guy till he passed but seeing clips of workouts of him teaching you the movements im probably gonna take a look at his channel
Thank you Will for doing this awesome video
As a competitive swimmer, I really would not recommend swimming with goggles that cover your nose like that, because the secret to good breathing technique in swimming is continuous breathing. That basically means slowly letting air out through your nose when underwater, breath and then repeat (well theres variations to that breathing pattern but the same basic idea applies, the one thing you really don't want to do is hold your breath).
John meadows went to the lifetime I worked at everyday and while bulking he would definitely have two muffins every time. So not donuts but close. Also he was just an amazing guy even to the people just working in the cafe for a free gym membership
For the algorithm ❤️
Huge respect for your work
This really made me happy
Should have had the donuts, he loved donuts!!!! Ate them on his UA-cam’s and talked about them frequently. Good video!!
Hey will how are ya. Another will Tennyson at 10 am banger you know it's Thursday 👍
Who here wants more mama tenny videos?
Love the videos much love from Ottawa.
What a coincidence that they both uploaded at the same time
Hey, Will. Just wanted to thank you for your videos, you, along with Igor - Vitruvian Physique (collab when?), motivate me to continue lifting and eating the right way. Any time I feel like not going I just check one of your video :)
Thanks for watching! Happy I can help motivate you!
Damn, i wish you two could have collabed
Rip John 🙏
Everyone should incorporate meadows rows into their back days for John
Pendlay row and weighted inverted rows are better overall tbh but it might be good for adding another variation for conjugate
@@KurokamiNajimi no
If you do have elbow tendinitis that bad, try a PT who will do dry needle. My right elbow was so bad I couldn’t curl 5lbs in any palm variation - had dry needle done and haven’t had an issue for 8 months. FWIW.
For the algorithm Hon 😍😍😍😍😍👌👌👌
We all miss him 😢
Rip to the legend, and goat in my opinion. But the workout Will did was nowhere near the intensity of a regular meadows workout. I know this because i followed 3 of his programs. And anyone else who has can probably agree with me. I wanted to see something ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL. This looked more like a deload. Good vid nun the less
this is an awesome video Will, RIP John🙏♥
Yeah I was thinking about a 2 too.
would be so fun to workout with Will and then get AYCE sushi after
here as ALWAYS
William you're such a sweetheart :)
The only time I come very quickly, is when I see Will's UA-cam notification
John was such a inspiration for me and many others he’s the one that got me into the fitness industry 😓❤️ love the content will keep it up!!
you should try the ice cream with the banana next time, it completely changes the texture
Fantastic video 👊👊👊
Loved the vid mr tennyson just wondering will u ever do the day of celebrity training and eating.I really loved them vids.
I just got into watching his content, and his videos helped me with new exercises when I have little to no equipment. Wish I would’ve watched him prior…such a nice man.
RIP 🥺❤️
Very nice tribute
I don't like your microwave. If I can't get annoyed and close inanimate objects slightly forcefully I don't want anything to do with it. That is all.
I thought Ben 10 pulled Ben Tennyson outta their ass but your last name is really Tennyson. You’re Winn 10 bro
About his mountain dog nick name. Like you said he talked about these mountain cur dogs a lot in past interviews or videos. He became associated with that dog breed. When people referred to a John Meadows teaching or thought they would say "oh that's a mountain dog way". He liked it and it stuck with him so he became The Mountain Dog.
I don't know John but he seemed like he had alot of love, passion and dedication to his fitness in the bodybuilding aspect that inspired many.
he actually was a big donut fan. Every Sunday he would go and get 2 donuts with his family!
He actually was a fan of donuts. He had two every Sunday. He writes that in his training programs
Haha ☺️
Always thought it'd be awesome to see Will and John in the same video. Rest in Peace Mountaindog.
Love the camera man
