@@TattooedIrishGuy79 I’m going to be 42 in May, & I totally agree that while warmups are always important, as we age they seem to matter even more in overall performance & injury prevention. 👍
@@user-zk4dv2nx8k Great to hear from you! I’m actually working on RE-filming the narrative part for my next video (I hated how the original footage came out). It’s also unfortunately taken me much longer to get to this because my video editing PC totally died 3 weeks ago, & I’m hoping to get it back in the next week or so. Working hard on this, & I apologize that it’s taking me so long.....but I love hearing you’re excited to see my next videos! 👍
Love the latest videos with Dave. I've been reading the conjugated periodization bible on elitefts and feel so hyped to start it when gyms re-open. Great learning value in these videos!
Waching this a night before leg day, and holy sht John your last set gives me vibes of your old video with Tom Platz, pure pain, motivation on the roof baby!
What sucks about a really good squat is when you get above 500 for reps & the bar starts bending/bouncing. You feel the bounce at the top directly in the knees
Much bigger 'alright .. hi everybody' after doing the stim powder. That stuff really works!!! And still plenty of energy for some intense squat action, too.
Saving this. I partially tore my adductor (i think) playing hockey a few weeks ago. I took a week off legs, then hit squats Saturday. My hamstrings felt completely over worked (compensating?) so I guess I'll take another week off. Sucks.
Over the course of 2020 I took the time to get my home gym better equipped and have spent more time focused on my legs. I don't have access to a leg curl machine yet. What would you recommend as an alternate exercise to help fire hams before squatting? Also, my lower back used to tighten up a lot when I would squat, either high or low bar. Over the past 2 months I have focused my leg time primarily on getting my front squat technique down (I think I like front squats better than back squats now). But the interesting benefit from all the time front squatting is that my lower back pain and tightness is 100% gone. Not to mention that my back squat numbers have gone up. Thanks for the continued great content!
Hamstring curls. Lay on your belly on the floor and use the bottom of your feet(sneakers) to pick up a dumbell. Then curls the dumbell with your hammies. Its a bit awkward initially but you'll get it down quick. Check out videos for a better idea of what I mean. I do this if im working out at home everytime before squats
Perhaps I didn’t look closely enough, but I couldn’t find that plate loaded seated leg curl on the EliteFTS website. That’s a nice looking piece of equipment.
Think I saw a glint in Mountain Dog's eye coming up with those 5 wheels...might be getting a little serious in central Ohio. Thought Dave was being a little hard on Brett a video or 2 back, but you see the result here. Great shite.
Hey john I just ordered granite joint care and essential amino’s . I didn’t realize the aminos contained Sucralose it gives me headaches. Do you know of any other brands that contain real sugar for sweetener? Maybe less sweet than granite too?
Don’t underestimate the power of compound exercises. Make sure you include them in your workout routine. They’re your best tools for maximum muscle growth. 💪💪
I have some questions about substitutions. I'm active duty military, and our local gym has very few machines, but many free weights. What are some good substitutions for Calf Raises without a machine and for hack squats? We have a "V Squat" machine that's plate loaded, and it's similar to a hack squat, but the movement track isn't quite the same. Also, I do not have a Smith Machine for substitutions. Thanks
if only meadows and tate had been my coaches since I started, imagine where i'd be today. I don't think some of these cats know how lucky they are to have this opportunity every day
It's probably the abs and hamstrings/glutes being weaker/not engaged enough vs the hip flexors and low back being tight as a compensation pattern, so some things Dave already adresses in the video. These imbalances tend to tilt the pelvis anteriorly. Although I can't say for sure without actually assessing the movements you have these issues on.
Till this exact moment, I used to think you are always suppose to take huge gasp of air through your mouth and then hold it in. Next time I will try to do it with the nose, let's see if it makes a difference.

the amount of knowledge stored up just in Dave's mustache is astounding
I realize it's quite off topic but does anybody know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?
John Meadows x Dave Tate = legendary combo
"Come over."
"I can't, I'm training."
"My parents aren't home."
19:32
😂👍
Is it supposed to be the "beast mode" or the casual " alright so..the last exercise"? Both could work.
@@deragenfox3624You make a good point. I guess the sprinting/hip thruster superset would be a nice hypertrophy workout.
@@deragenfox3624 Trueeeeeeeee
I’m glad a big, trusted channel makes the distinction between building a movement vs building the muscles
NH gang lol
Pure gold. Plus John's got some competition in the T shirt department
9:30 'come up like your on a Smith machine'...that que just changed my execution and perception of how I should do the box squat.
Dave Tate is a freaking genius and super intuitive in the strength world ... kudos 👍🏻👏
Still miss this guy, always awesome info. RIP John.
always love ya John! rest easy
Nothing more important than a proper warmup to keep you safe & able to push some weight with squats! 💪
Now that I’m in my 40’s, my first hour is warmups. Lol

Mountaindog, Stan Efferding, Mark Bell, Matt Wenning, Squat university and EliteFTS are my top favorites.💪🏼
I miss him.
Dave’s shirt is priceless. Love all the great knowledge too!
Your videos are always so aptly timed! Loving the work with Dave Tate as I transition over to powerlifting/powerbuilding!
Commenting for Al Gore's rhythm. Watching those leg presses was awesome!
Great video John! Always love the collaboration with Dave Tate. Appreciate the lessons.
Love and miss you John. Thanks for everything, always.
more videos with Dave please! awesome and invaluable content John, thank you
Thanks! Squat is the main compound I really struggle doing well. Everything I can watch to help, I’ll watch!
Dave's Tshirt is nice. Have to get one of those.
Earlier than last time, thanks for being the best lifting channel on youtube.
AMEN!! LOVE MOUNTAIN DOG!!!❤️
I wish I had a hack squat. I really appreciate the stretching advice. My low back and hamstrings stay tight. Thanks Dave and John.
Love the latest videos with Dave. I've been reading the conjugated periodization bible on elitefts and feel so hyped to start it when gyms re-open.
Great learning value in these videos!
These videos help me tremendously
The best channel to learn how to be a better athlete
Man - have to replay this a few times. So much great information!
I’m late but I’m here!!! Best channel out there!
Outstanding! Thank you for this great free info! God bless you guys!
Wow , what a blessing it would be to work with Dave Tate
Love to see a deadlift version of this.
Love Dave’s shirt!
I love Dave's t-shirt here! 😂
Fantastic info, tomorrow is my leg day, will take this into consideration
That Tom & Jerry shirt is legendary 🤣👍🏻
Best bodybuilding channel ever.
I felt that last set of hacks lol great work
9 tips!! I'm gonna watch this video while having my meals for maximum absorption!!!🙌
Great video. Going to watch this again.
I bought some of that pre workout and I’m loving it
Waching this a night before leg day, and holy sht John your last set gives me vibes of your old video with Tom Platz, pure pain, motivation on the roof baby!
Awesome work John!
Any dave tate info is good info 🙌
That last set of hacks looked like fun!
Brutal last set drop set 🤯
Great content as always John thank you sir!
Leg day tomorrow, I will use some of this tips 💪

Thanks
Your workouts are the best 💪❤
I was hoping for more focus on the Good Mornings.
They glossed over on that.
I have those same blue under armor sneakers. So comfy
Much bigger 'alright .. hi everybody' after doing the stim powder. That stuff really works!!! And still plenty of energy for some intense squat action, too.
Mr Meadows could tear a hole in the space time continuum as if a plastic strip is gonna stop him
Great video! Is the box high just because these guys are lacking mobility?
Rip John great video.
Had to sub. Very good stuff.
Holy cow! Paul could use his chest as a chin rest while doing the seated leg curls. What a beast
Great freaking content !!!
John gets a better arm pump on the hack squat compared to most gymshark athletes on an arm day 21:30
That Tom & Jerry shit is scary. What kind of belt is that? It looks cool
Love it. My squats are lagging. I can pull 455 on deads but barely 315 on squats.
I can bench 315 but struggle to squat it 💀
How do I strengthen my forearms so I can do sick yo-yo tricks?
I love these videos, so damn useful
Hi everybody John Meadows here.... ahh my day is complete
Saving this. I partially tore my adductor (i think) playing hockey a few weeks ago. I took a week off legs, then hit squats Saturday. My hamstrings felt completely over worked (compensating?) so I guess I'll take another week off. Sucks.
Thanks, JM AND DT, that's the first time I saw the Palumbo Syndrome, or a huge belly straight from false squatting.
Happy Monday!!

He literally said they don't sell it
@@LuisGarcia-vi5rj thanks. I didn’t hear that on the video. Probably another prototype just like the leg curl/extension that is now for sale.
if I recall correctly to other elite fts videos it’s a hammer strength machine
Amazing tips 🔥💪🏿
2 heavy hitters💪🏽
Great tips !
Think I saw a glint in Mountain Dog's eye coming up with those 5 wheels...might be getting a little serious in central Ohio. Thought Dave was being a little hard on Brett a video or 2 back, but you see the result here. Great shite.
how come the band is at the top? to help get out of the hole?
Dave Tate: smith machine, smith machine, there you go.
Ameteur me: what?
Smith machine
Show us on the doll where the mouse touched you, Mr. Tate. Dude really hates mice.
Hey john I just ordered granite joint care and essential amino’s . I didn’t realize the aminos contained Sucralose it gives me headaches. Do you know of any other brands that contain real sugar for sweetener? Maybe less sweet than granite too?

No shit Sherlock
My hips are so bad im so tight in that area really need to get some help for this area i got smaller legs and big glutes
Find anything that worked? I'm having the same issue ...
Lets go!
What weight are you using for your working sets 5x5? 🙏
I really want that Tom and Jerry shirt 🤩
im 55 . wish i found DAVE when he started his channel.

Are those rubber 25 plates or rubber 10 plates in between the outside 45s?
if only meadows and tate had been my coaches since I started, imagine where i'd be today. I don't think some of these cats know how lucky they are to have this opportunity every day
Please can you make a video on how to fix anterior pelvic tilt with weights ❤💪
Y would you want to strengthen it?

Bro... Why are you hyper extending on the hack Squat?
Warm up tips for the groin?
Big Man Tate said, said he has tightness in the hips, well that's an impingement issue, or a serious health concern which so many possess.
Till this exact moment, I used to think you are always suppose to take huge gasp of air through your mouth and then hold it in. Next time I will try to do it with the nose, let's see if it makes a difference.
*BEASTMODE* lol 😁
Where did you get that shirt Dave??? 😂😂
👑👑
Are box squats good for hypertrophy or do you have to do free squats?
So, you mean the Band, gets you to a Technique with Form around above 100 if you stick to it.
Hi my name's John Meadows and I vow never to know what "quotation marks" are actually for.
j/k we love you John
I want to see a collab with Alberto Nuñez
