A lot of things Jay said were personal memories but I can 100% attest to Ronnie emailing back to his fans. In 2000s, as a guy in my early teens trying to learn about bodybuilding, I would email Ronnie to ask questions. He always answered. There was no social media, no YT back then, I had nobody else to ask. I didn't know he stayed up late to write answers, but I know he wrote, and they weren't just two word emails. He wrote all he knew about the questions I was asking. Pretty honest too. For instance I learned from him that there were creams for stretch marks but surgery was probably the only effective option. He could have sold any product to me, and many naive kids like me.
I've had others say the same. And that he would take time out of his day for anyone that approaches him. I've also heard that jay was really Down to earth to and would always take pics or say hey to fans
Yeah go to this channel and catch up bro because he just has a voice for radio for 1 easy listening you know. But then all the interviews he does and the one-on-ones with him and Luke. And also meals and training
WOW!!!! This is so great to see Mr. Jay Cutler & Mr. Fouad Abiad talking about motivation, and Mr. John Meadows. I know some people ask me all the time why do I address someone like yourself or Mr. Cutler with a "MR" it's all about respect, something I was taught as a youngster that instills in my mind, body, and spirit. I look up to all you great bodybuilders, I respect those that help me in my aspects in life, even in the smallest way! I'm also a very big fan of Mr. John Meadows, he has that humbleness that just slaps me in the face, his expertise is so immersing, and I'm drawn to those that make a difference not just in bodybuilding, but fitness overall. In fact all 3 of you guys are so humble about life in general, that it makes it easier for me to stay motivated in all aspects of my life. There's an old saying just like an apple a day, keeps the doctor away! It's not what in the content, rather it's in the teachers heart that guides us in a successful direction. I always have motivation to train, eat a good diet, and make sure I sleep well, to make a long story short: We are designed to work hard, keep motivated, like Mr. Jay Cutler said: Yes we do have days when our motivation is not complete, however we learn to work through it no matter what stands in the way! I wanted to thank all 3 of you for being just "YOU" it makes a bigger difference than most people realize, that's what helps keep me training day in, and day out!
Thats how Jay is in all his videos he just overall very passionate and insightful. Some of his stuff he points out how he was when he was training for the Olympia. He just basically had his mind on one thing that was the road the a win.
So. I am a beginner and before i started i soaked up as much info as possible from as many people as possible. Which took roughly 8-9 months before i actually had the balls to do it (Obese guy). Now, i was torn for the longest time to either leave some reps in the tank (Dr. mike israetel approach) Or the "oldschool" style to failure every time. Now Jay freakin cutler says he never goes to failure. This is like a halleluja from the heavens. I was ready to tear myself up.
Hi John, I hope your recovery is going well. I'm in my mid forties, have 2 small children, and came to the sport late. Although my struggles have been mental rather than physical I just want you to know how much of an inspiration you are to me. On dark days, when all I want to do is hide from the world, the kindness and positivity that shines through your content makes me get off the sofa and hit the weights - and I always feel so much better afterwards. So, thank you.
It’s awesome to see fellow bodybuilding community members come together to help a fellow bodybuilder/you tuber keep their channel flowing while recovering from a health issue. Big ups to J and Fouad! Get well soon mountain dog
I started lifting after many years...I'm 59 yo and had started watching Arnold videos, and Jay Cutler videos that motivated me to start again. My body is shot...trying to come back, it's difficult pushing through. I'm just going to try to lift to gain back muscle lost and getting motivation from watching Jay and now John. It's been great for mental health. I was told that you can lose muscle as much as 8% a year past 50 which I can say it probably is true. Thank you, Take care, Be safe.
This is what the fitness industry is all about this is why I love bodybuilding it’s about supporting each other and building each other up. What a beautiful gesture by Fouad and Jay 💪🏻 get well soon John 🙏 lots of love and respect from India 🇮🇳
Fouad Abiad You are an amazing human being and a great friend. I know that these times have been tough for you, and incase anyone hasn’t asked you yet, I hope that you are doing fine, you are a brave person and you are an inspiration for people like me thank you for everything that you do for the bodybuilding community🙏🏼
Instant like. What a beautiful sentiment. I will consider myself lucky if later in my life, I'm respected enough that people would do something like this for me. You're a special person, Mr. Meadows. Glad you're ok! We need you around a while.
Good for these two guys doing such a supportive video, I never sat and listened to such a long video on UA-cam before but I found this really interesting
Whoa, I've got something in common with Jay. I don't wear headphones and I don't hear the music....well unless it's got too much swearing which is disrespectful when there are older gym members. That was another great interview Fouad. 💖🙏
Don't tell G. Doucette that J. Cutler trains at RPE 8 😂 - just kidding, amazing interview and with the good news of the Mountain Dog's recovery, it's even better 💪🏻
Congratulations John! When the legends of the industry take time to do a video for you. You have reached the highest level of respect. That is truly an Honor! look forward to seeing John soon!
I remember when that pic of jay was on the cover of md magazine, I think it's the freakiest looking Mr. O ever if you had to judge based on a single picture. It looks Photoshop. It's borderline unbelievable! I don't think there's even a pic of Ronnie Coleman that looks bigger
Very happy to see the three of my favourites support each other. Strange because i allways watch each others channels to and it all came together at last. Respect to all of you keep doing what you are doing!
Great content guys! Thank you. I love this bodybuilding community, it really is so much fun. Training, and the lifestyle has it’s ups, and downs, and listening to the greats talk about things that I go through (on a much smaller scale) really helps to motivate me. Hope for a fast recovery for John 💪🏽
I respect Jay more and more as I'm exposed to him. He spends so much of his time building others up rather than tearing people down. No wonder he and John get along so well, two true class acts. Loads of respect for Fouad for this as well though I wish he didn't have beef with coach Greg.
@@mountaindog1 true, I didn't realize that's the reason I'm so drawn to the 2 of you until watching this video lol. Thanks for responding on a 4 month old video, I love your content and positivity and I'm glad I get to let you know how much I appreciate it. Also your so kicks ass with a yoyo. Best of luck to you brother 👍🏻
This is an amazingly beautiful gesture. I always knew jay was a different type of nice, but my god both of them are just above and beyond. So much love in this community
Mad respect for Jay and Fouad for doing something for the people & John I’m a huge fan of John, and I’ve always like Jay and Fouad but my respect levels for these two has sky rocketed. All the best! Hope we all get back to work on Tuesday in the temple of Iron 💪🏻
I love this so much. Mad respect gentlemen. Mr john meadows has become my dude. Hes skyrocketed to being my favorite youtuber. My favorite place to go for knowledge. John meadows is what we all should strive to be. Incredible dude!!! Good on ya boys!!💪👍👊
Fucking AWESOME to have you with us, John. Keep it that way. I met you a long time ago, and your like a fuckin Jedi........like Ed Byrd, with a Yates, Mountain Dog thing. Be well my brother.
Get well soon John and I so appreciate the way you treat your followers. All the best to your family. Your boys are such gentlemen and your wife is top shelf.
The way he talks about Ronnie making him better, ultimately! Jay is a true champion and Ronnie as well. Great interview Fouad! You’re are quickly becoming bodybuilding’s best interviewers. Actually F that...You are!!!! Congratulations Fouad! You’re making Canada and bodybuilding proud!!! Keep grinding and get that back on that stage!!! Health over everything and I know with bodybuilding isn’t conducive to that but I know when you get back on stage, you’ll have figured it out!
Man These podcast are golden .was having a really shit day till this popped up .was bit strange at first with jay and fouad but on mountain dog channel .and was still expecting Luke .still golden podcasts all ways come on at perfect time.
Glad you're home recovering John. Fouad is a legit good guy, him doing this to help you out doesn't surprise me at all, it's just a "Boss" thing to do. When he talks about you in his videos you can see how much he looks up to you, as most that come to know you probably do. God bless, here's to hoping you come out of this strong and healthy 🍻
Wow.. Fouad is such an inspiration. I have never heard of someone do such a touching thing on UA-cam. Everyone would make videos in THEIR channel about the person in question but never create a video and send it like this. This is new idea. You have an awesome friend. I think fouad is trying to retaliate all the jerk behavior he had when he was young, for good..
This was great....All 4 John....We need a 3rd round with you two and John...This was fantastic, your 1st Podcast with Jay ( Which was really the second, I wish there was some way to find the Lost tape), this time it was more like Buddies talking with Jay firing question back at you....We need a Road Trip where you, Jay and John going to the great Gyms of the World where you train and run questions by people like Dorian, Bev and Steve, Ronnie, just having you all together while everyone still can...a series of the Greats, Legends, and the Gyms.
Make sure you checkout the rest of my Mr Olympia Playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLNAUreWTt_SjvKrnJn0-i8_AT1GOGWsve.html
Glad your home and doing well! We need the bodybuilding human encyclopedia (John Meadows) ! All ❤️🙏🏼
Get well soon best coach/guru, and its Big J not Jay sir. Thank you
My respect for Abiad just went up many levels...he is a great friend to have
Thank you
@@FouadAbiad we all need a friend like Fouad in our life🙏🏻
Jay saying Ronnie is his idol hits different. So much respect and sportsmanship. Loved that answer. 👏
YES! Agreed!

In 2000s, as a guy in my early teens trying to learn about bodybuilding, I would email Ronnie to ask questions. He always answered.

I've had others say the same. And that he would take time out of his day for anyone that approaches him. I've also heard that jay was really Down to earth to and would always take pics or say hey to fans
John is obviously an expert in the field but what most impresses is his family life and what I see from him as a father.
Exactly. A true family man.
You are spot on. You see what type of person he is truly.
Absolutely agree
Amen brother I agree you completely.
You can tell he loves his family and his life. I pray John is around for many more decades. Great guy, respect.
Jay is such a legend for coming on he’s always seemed like a great guy
Dude, this is just publicity for him. Even if he didn't like Mdog (which he does) he would have come on the show, because it's good PR.
@@iwantlee9510 man, he recorded a whole episode that dont even came to UA-cam(technical problems) but he was kind enough to try again
Awesome gesture. We are praying for your speedy recovery John.
Fouad seems like an amazing friend
John is very generous with his time and knowledge for his friends so it’s just something for me to say thank you.
@@FouadAbiad you two are great role models for balancing work, friends, and family. I admire that
Fouad Abiad You need to do a podcast with Jay .... That was damn good.
@@Goku-j8q3l He already did one but I agree he should be a regular guest.
Man Fouad Abiad seems like such a nice guy. Gonna start watching him now!
Yeah go to this channel and catch up bro because he just has a voice for radio for 1 easy listening you know. But then all the interviews he does and the one-on-ones with him and Luke. And also meals and training
He’s got a heart of gold.... just like John
He is super cool guy, his channel is amazing💪
Fouad’s channel is damn good! Love his interviews!
WOW!!!! This is so great to see Mr. Jay Cutler & Mr. Fouad Abiad talking about motivation, and Mr. John Meadows. I know some people ask me all the time why do I address someone like yourself or Mr. Cutler with a "MR" it's all about respect, something I was taught as a youngster that instills in my mind, body, and spirit. I look up to all you great bodybuilders, I respect those that help me in my aspects in life, even in the smallest way!

I wanted to thank all 3 of you for being just "YOU" it makes a bigger difference than most people realize, that's what helps keep me training day in, and day out!
Haven’t seen Jay talk that passionately before.
For sure
I remember watching him once he was a Olympia champion, man...he was lethargic as fuck, much better now
Thats how Jay is in all his videos he just overall very passionate and insightful. Some of his stuff he points out how he was when he was training for the Olympia. He just basically had his mind on one thing that was the road the a win.
Gustavo Leal Gomes he would’ve been on hgh, tren who knows. He would have been so tired and gassed. Now days he is much healthier
So. I am a beginner and before i started i soaked up as much info as possible from as many people as possible. Which took roughly 8-9 months before i actually had the balls to do it (Obese guy). Now, i was torn for the longest time to either leave some reps in the tank (Dr. mike israetel approach) Or the "oldschool" style to failure every time. Now Jay freakin cutler says he never goes to failure. This is like a halleluja from the heavens. I was ready to tear myself up.
Hi John, I hope your recovery is going well. I'm in my mid forties, have 2 small children, and came to the sport late.

Everyone needs a friend like Fouad
Three of my favorite fitness channels coming together
Same here bro....
From jays channel comes only bullshit
Jay legend best Mr Olympia representative ever
We all need a friend like this guy❤️
This is amazing 🙌🏼 Great work Fouad & Jay for doing this! Soooo Much respect for you guys 🙌🏼💯
Thank you Xavier
It’s awesome to see fellow bodybuilding community members come together to help a fellow bodybuilder/you tuber keep their channel flowing while recovering from a health issue. Big ups to J and Fouad! Get well soon mountain dog
It’s so nice you guys did this for him. I hope he gets well soon ❤️
Jay is popular because he's a great guy who interacts with everyone the same way, talks to people!!!!
Fouad & Jay should do a podcast.
Hmmm 🤔
Get on it... That shit was great!
John was such an inspirational figure. Still can’t believe he’s gone
John is the gentleman of bodybuilding what a man. All my best wishes to John and his family 👍
You know you’re a legend in the game when others help immediately when in need
I think working out or exercise is the best anti-depressant on earth even after 40 yrs. Hard to get started but then your happy you did.
I started lifting after many years...I'm 59 yo and had started watching Arnold videos, and Jay Cutler videos that motivated me to start again. My body is shot...trying to come back, it's difficult pushing through.
I'm just going to try to lift to gain back muscle lost and getting motivation from watching Jay and now John. It's been great for mental health. I was told that you can lose muscle as much as 8% a year past 50 which I can say it probably is true.
Thank you,
Take care,
Be safe.
This information is priceless. THANK YOU Fouad, Jay, & John
This is what the fitness industry is all about this is why I love bodybuilding it’s about supporting each other and building each other up. What a beautiful gesture by Fouad and Jay 💪🏻 get well soon John 🙏 lots of love and respect from India 🇮🇳

I’ve never met you, Mr. Meadows, but you’re special to me. You’re special to the world!
:)
Jay is the definition of bodybuilding embassador and icon
Fouad and Jay are everything that is good about this industry. Very pleased to see them supporting the Mountain Dog. Respect.
👊🏽
So nice to see you guys talking so glowingly about John well before his passing. Really helps showcase how much he meant to people.

Watched this whole podcast from start to finish with no break, very interesting, thanks Fouad and Jay!! Get well John!!💪🏾

Glad you enjoyed it!
Jay's Topic of when to take it easy to prevent injury is so crucial.
Good for these two guys doing such a supportive video, I never sat and listened to such a long video on UA-cam before but I found this really interesting
It’s awesome of Jay to come and do this. Jay is a super great ambassador of the sport.
Thank Fouad and Jay!!
Soooooo happy John is good!!
Whoa, I've got something in common with Jay.
I don't wear headphones and I don't hear the music....well unless it's got too much swearing which is disrespectful when there are older gym members.

Me:. Ya me neither.
Congratulations John! When the legends of the industry take time to do a video for you. You have reached the highest level of respect. That is truly an Honor! look forward to seeing John soon!
Awesome Q&A. Rest in Paradise John Meadows 🙏🏽 😪
Very cool to see you guys make this video on behalf of John.
I remember when that pic of jay was on the cover of md magazine, I think it's the freakiest looking Mr. O ever if you had to judge based on a single picture. It looks Photoshop. It's borderline unbelievable! I don't think there's even a pic of Ronnie Coleman that looks bigger
I could not agree more .
This is a good video to watch now and remember John. RIP John, you touched us all, everyone, around the world.
Thanks guys "Great Video", all our gym members is wishing John a speedy recovery👍..
Very happy to see the three of my favourites support each other. Strange because i allways watch each others channels to and it all came together at last. Respect to all of you keep doing what you are doing!
Met Jay a few times. Such a down to earth guy and always willing to take time to talk to his fans. Loving this UA-cam podcast.
