listened to this again today... he was talking about what kind of legacy he wanted to leave behind... he certainly suceeded... and it made me think of myself.............
Coming back now and watching this. The fact that Fouad even watches his mouth when talking to John just shows how much he was really respected. Also shows what a stand up Christian man that John was.
Fouad you are absolutely killing it. John Meadows is one of if not the best role model in our sport. I have used his programs the last several years and try to live by his treat people how you wanted to be treated. Keep killing it Hoss these Podcasts are appreciated sir.
Fouad you over here putting out even more fire on this podcast! I met John Meadows a few weeks ago down in Virginia Beach for an event and really enjoyed the knowledge he had to share.
Too bad the Q & A and John Meadows weren’t around back in the early 90s when I first stepped into a gym. Been at since 95 but I think I wasted my first 3 yrs by trial and error! John’s “Exercise Index” are priceless. Love the interview Fouad! Keep going. You’re gaining momentum with this stuff 👍
Your channel is slowly becoming my favorite channel , humble , calm and informative videos , john is such an awesome guy. . Following him for last couple of years. One of most genuine people in this sport.
Two genuine, stand-tall, proud men.... This was humbling episode. I believe bodybuilding has handful of genuine coaches/athletes that truly love bodybuilding and spread positivity without bullshit sprinkled on it... We just witnessed two of those bodybuilders! Thank you very much for another fantastic episode sir!
One of the best guys in the sport! He cares, he is passionate and wants everyone he shares info with wants them to succeed. Super genuine man! It’s great to see a great person like him achieve success.
Damn I crying watching this podcast- the part where Fouad asks John how he keeps going with the savings and the pro qualifiers. I felt that so hard. The unsurmountable belief that you believe in yourself and know that you can achieve what you set out to do.
Around 47 min mark down to 54 min mark.... Damn, emotional roller coaster! Im here at my work getting choked up and holding back my tears of passion that im hearing you guys tell and explain..... Damn, this one hit hard. I f'n love this shit! Thanks once again!
Been rewatching so many videos. John was so much more than bodybuilding. I had to wait to watch these because John helped me build my training programs and my diet and taught me how to use PEDs as safely as possible and less is more in bodybuilding. But he showed all of us how to live life. Family first, treat others how you want to be treated, genuinely care for others and show them you care don't just say it. I remember the first time he answered one of my questions on his APP and I couldn't believe how fast he responded.
John Meadows was a very good man - great in his goodness. I find myself seeking out his voice over and over again. In this respect he is still alive, giving advice and still offering an example as a human being and a bodybuilder.
This needs way more views. Excellent content Hoss. Thank you for continually bringing awesome guests on week in and week out. Enjoyed listening to John Meadows for nearly 2hrs! 👏🏻
Thank you Fouad for being honest with these podcast series. I have been following a lot of fitness and bodybuilding people on TH-cam and IG. None of them have been open and honest about gear. While I am not going to take any because I am not a pro or trying to be one, I am thankful for the information because all others have just kept me and other ppl in the dark.
Your determination, passion and the fact that you are a really chill guy even when focusing strongly on your goals are a huge inspiration Fouad! Love the podcasts, keep it up. Greetings from Germany!
Thank you for having your coach on the cast, I'm happy that you had a personal relationship with this guy because he seems like a very good person, intelligent, caring and obviously f****** jacked I can't believe hes gone I wish I could have watched a 1000 more hours of podcasts with u2. Thank you
John is an awesome person he's a very genuine person that you can't normally see in most ppl especially in video's but John seems just too good of a person to miss it.
Idk John personally, but I absolutely love everything this man stands for ! So many great qualities, and things we can all learn from John. His approach to life, and views make the rest of us feel like we can also do more and get more out of our lives ! Some guys that are well known talk and you just don’t feel that connection, the same way John makes u feel like your goals are reachable ! And doable ! Love listening to him speak, very motivating !
Probably the most impressive bodybuilding video I've seen to date 💯theres not much to say apart from listening to yourself and John this guy is just truly humble,💯genuine and clearly a true gent being and doing what he's has done in this amazing sport is probably if not the most inspirational👏👏also Fouad keep the good work up and the awesome interviews coming💪💪
Thank you for the kind words. I'm working hard at keeping these podcasts as real and genuine as possible to give the most accurate view of what bodybuilding really is.
Aside from all the great valuable information they always both provide, what I take out of this most is that these are two great honest real men. Big respect to both of you.
Everyone on this show are great people And everyone thats gonna come on in the future are great with the info and the stories they give All the thanks to the HOSS Love you man
Fouad you need to get Evan Centopani on your podcast please! Best bodybuilding channel on youtube hands down. Im currently prepping for my first bodybuilding show and I genuinely love watching these videos during my cardio sessions. Great content!
I've been training for a long time and thought I knew what I was doing untill I learned about John Medows and Fuad Abiad. You made me realize that I know jack💩 😅 since I started to follow you two guys on Instagram and TH-cam I've learned tons and made progress like never before. Thanx to The both of you guys, love that you chare of your knowlage so generously. Much love and respect to The both of you.
Thats great news man. One of the best things I ever did in my career was admit 'I don't know jack shit', once I did that it opened me up to learning new things and becoming a better bber.
Another great podcast, great interviewer don't get in the way of the guest talking and questions are straight to the point. Keep smashing it !RBP is the best!
I love John, he has a great outlook on things !! And it all made since that I ended up like you fouad, I heard you talking about certain things re feed and reverse dieting as I had only heard one channel talk about those things and it was John
I listened to this podcast yesterday, I am also a big fan of John Meadows. Well... I just finished training legs and heard about your 30 - 40 rep leg presses, I gave it a go today and Holy.... my legs are smoked.
Its funny to me... I have looked at John Meadows as an inspiration for years knowing he had been doing this, the life style of bodybuilding, for 35+ years. The years of competing and not "getting anywhere" but still just continuing on. So whats funny is I have very much started to look at you as someone that I respect and look at specifically who you are as motivation. I think working with john, a reflection of himself and longevity has been implemented into your life. Fouad I work a desk john where i have podcasts on all day, I listen to almost every bodybuilding podcast because i'm submerged in the sport. You get a different angle out of people, you ask questions that I haven't seen from others... or even ask the same questions differently that generates better responses. Just wanted to write a comment of encouragement. Thank you. #LukeLovesAnal
Thank you man that means a lot. This isn't something I've ever done and honestly I'm not good at 'just talking to people' so this is way out of my comfort zone. The words of encouragement and critique are appreciated greatly.
See even Fouad watches his language speaking to john😂😂 Thats how awesome and positive Mr meadows is!!! 2 monsters, physically and mentally. Great stuff!!! Appreciate all the work both you gentlemen do💪💪👍👊
We need shirts that say “HiErrybawdy”. Rest In Peace John Meadows. John was a mentor to so many people that he never got to meet. His discipline and commitment and genuine love for the sport were palpable in everything he did. Inna lilahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un 🙏🏾
Hoss im a direhard fallower of bodybuilding youtube channels and im certain yours has become my favorite. I hope i can see you on iron rage again soon bro.
This podcast was great!!! It would be nice to have John back on the podcast and get more solid information on bodybuilding. However, I learned a lot and found it very informative.
I know, some people want the X's and O's stuff more than the lifestyle stuff. I will have him on again to ask those questions but honestly there is a lot of podcasts out there doing X's and O's. This one is more about 'who' the people that are on actually are.
@@FouadAbiad I understand. I found it to be a great insight into John Meadows, the person, and not just Mountaindog1. Thank you for putting out great content as well as replying to comments!!
Shortly after John started his site, I messaged him and asked where to start a diet at. Said that I was a college strength coach with a baby on the way and I didn’t know where to begin. John got back to me and asked me to write two articles and in return he would coach me. Greatest honor ever and showed his character - helping someone he knew nothing about. I’ve been a member of his site almost since it’s inception. God has an animal in his kingdom to train with. You’re missed John.
Shit! Just now listening to the car stereo part. Wish I knew this when he was coaching me. My dad did car stereos for 40 years at his store. When I worked for him he was the Kicker dealer of the year for a 5 state region. The owner of the company knew him by name even. John really was a renaissance man.
John is such a good role model. He's what you want to be as a man; genuine, hard-working, honest, and positive.
Kristian Kingston 💯
knowing how to take criticism and being honest with yourself is what I noticed from his stories. He has alot of valuable traits
Sorry for your loss Fouad. At 1 hr. into this podcast, John talks about the legacy he wanted to leave behind. He certainly succeeded.
100% he is great.
Re watching this after hearing the news. John will be deeply missed.
listened to this again today... he was talking about what kind of legacy he wanted to leave behind... he certainly suceeded... and it made me think of myself.............
John is a Super hero! He followed the golden rule: treat others as you would have them treat you. Great interview! RIP Mountain Dog! 🙏
Meadows, #1 coach. Very humble
Coming back now and watching this. The fact that Fouad even watches his mouth when talking to John just shows how much he was really respected. Also shows what a stand up Christian man that John was.
John has already left a legacy! He has a freaking excercise named after him “meadows rows” - 💪🏼
This podcast has been awesome so far, very grateful for such a well spoken series.
Fouad you are absolutely killing it. John Meadows is one of if not the best role model in our sport. I have used his programs the last several years and try to live by his treat people how you wanted to be treated. Keep killing it Hoss these Podcasts are appreciated sir.
Man I miss John. He was such a role model for me, and I still to do this day use things I've learned from him. Great episode
Fouad and John my 2 favourite pros at the moment both honest and down to earth gents. Great channel...
Another no bullshit guest on the show, you keep raising the bar every video!!!
Bravo sir. Bravo!!!!
I was just thinking yesterday that John Meadows would be a great guest on your podcast! Awesome!!!
Never meet John but well liked guy and like his channel
He is right your channel is climbing fast
👍👍👍👍
John is a great person and has a lot of insight into life and bodybuilding.
Fouad you over here putting out even more fire on this podcast! I met John Meadows a few weeks ago down in Virginia Beach for an event and really enjoyed the knowledge he had to share.

Fazz 1 lol I had some fun with it
John Meadows was a very good man - great in his goodness. I find myself seeking out his voice over and over again. In this respect he is still alive, giving advice and still offering an example as a human being and a bodybuilder.
I Was the EXACT same from 1985 to 1993!!! Started To Defeat,,, My Asthma in '85!
This needs way more views. Excellent content Hoss. Thank you for continually bringing awesome guests on week in and week out. Enjoyed listening to John Meadows for nearly 2hrs! 👏🏻
Your time stamps are legendary.
An inspiration and total work horse, a real class act
Never took John as a car guy on top of all the great things he does for the sport and us fans. Thanks again Fouad !!!!! KILLED IT
Right? Its so random when you think of his personality, but it makes him even cooler. lol
Thank you Fouad for being honest with these podcast series. I have been following a lot of fitness and bodybuilding people on TH-cam and IG. None of them have been open and honest about gear.

It's crazy how John is literally the gem of the industry and the best guy to everyone I've never heard one bad thing from anyone and he doesn't see it
I don't think anyone will ever say anything bad about John because there is nothing bad to say. He is genuinely a good person.

"I care" that sums up John's personality.
Love the Meadows Montague!
