*INTENSE* Back Workout For a Crazy PUMP

This back workout was amazing and gave us a massive pump. Just because you are about to step on stage doesn't mean you shouldn't work hard as I explain in this video. Today we crushed back just like any other day. Give thing back workout a try and let me know how the pump was.

John Meadows is an American professional bodybuilder and entrepreneur with an intriguing story. While John now boasts a successful career as an IFBB Pro bodybuilder and fitness company owner, his journey towards the top was extremely difficult.
Growing up, John never met his father, and his mother died at an extremely young age. This meant John only had his grandmother to take care of him. When his grandmother tragically passed away in 1999, John was left alone without his family to support him.
As the years went by, John continued to face new adversities in his life. During his early days in bodybuilding, John suffered from a rare colon disease. After fighting the disease for several months, his colon burst - almost resulting in his death. Luckily, John was quickly rushed to an emergency room where his life was saved. After several months of recovery, John was finally back on his feet.
Coming back into bodybuilding, John used the very obstacles that almost cost him his life as ‘fuel’ to grow stronger. Ever since he recovered from the colon surgery, John has gone on to become a successful bodybuilder, entrepreneur, and inspiration for many people all over the world.

Agree 100% about your comment towards the end about learning about all those little things now when hes young. I too spent years of training in my younger days just going through the routine without really knowing wtf I was doing. Great that your passing your tips onto the youngsters

Same. While my gym is slowly transforming into a crossfit box

[@jjwp-ql5rv]

I'm loving the chest supported row machine 👍

[@Dexatron]

There is only one gym with sick bodybuilding equipment near me. Otherwise Im reduced to "Xperience Fitness". Unfortunately, Xperience is wayyyy closer to me and more convenient to go to on a daily basis. It sucks.

[@ntokozomtshali9439]

Dexatron hahahahahahahah sorry bro. It’s like that for me too

[@G1stGBless]

I loved the young mans attitude. So many young kids and men these days, especially if they already look good just feel like they know it all. So for him to be so eager and enthusiastic to learn and go hard was awesome to see. And the young lady 😅... I’m happily married. So ill just leave it there 🤣

[@tank2003ful]

Wish they had that 1st back machine in my gym

[@gokukakarot6323]

You can do a makeshift kinda. Movement looks similar to chest supported dumbell row. So maybe add a band for constant tension. Or use the cable machines. And do single arm. Without twisting the body. I guess. We don't have pullover machines at most gyms. So I use the leg curl machine. :P

[@daddioduggio7612]

"Squeeze lock it in let it stretch" I love mountain dog❤️

[@marquettetriplett9157]

OMG! that first chest supported back machine looks sooo freakin awesome! I would feel so privileged to try it out. Never seen anything like it. You’re pretty lucky! That’s for the great content!

[@evohock]

Great workout John. If you guys haven’t tried the banded chins they really are awesome. Best lat pump and soreness I’ve had in years.

[@TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

I can never seem to get a back pump, how does one develop the mind muscle connection to start off?

[@formularainbow]

Start with unilateral movements like single arm rows, and lead with your elbows with your chest out

[@JC-xu3xb]

You could try to lighten the weight a little to practice focusing on getting the biggest contraction you can and holding it. Do that for a few sessions and then slowly start to increase the weight back up continuing that focused contraction.

[@drewbrown321]

Search how to feel your back on John's channel

[@spuZDK]

John has a "how to activate your back" video! search it up, and do it before every back workout! Helped me alot!

[@jjwp-ql5rv]

It's not as important as made out to be. I don't feel a pump in my back, no matter what I've tried. But my back is getting stronger, as all my back movements have gone up a lot since I started. I couldn't do one chin up a year ago, and now I do them for sets.

[@MyAteSpiders]

If I can get half the definition that Katie has in her back I'll be happy lol

[@RichardRatner.1972]

Awesome John! Great advice as ALWAYS kind regards Richard U.K

[@franckthetank4977]

Great video John ...my gym doesn't have this row machine but i'm thinking of using the hammer strength shrugs/squat/lunges and use a incline bench with it and that should work perfectly....hoping anyway:)Otherwise I still can use the 30 back machines ..love finding different equipment in order to work the bodyparts on different angles...that's fun time

[@tracyfrye3721]

Hi John. Fantastic to see someone my age still hitting it. I have one question. Is there any validity to doing high rep burnouts at the end of heavy sets? Is there any proof it helps building muscle? Thx.

[@mountaindog1]

its nothing magical..I actually dont do much of them

[@joeblass]

I cant wait to try those pulldowns💪

[@OrbvsTomarvm]

Big John, I just bought a power rack with a selectable stack. So it's time to OD on your vids and get strong again. Your vids give me a million and one ideas - thanks for the content: it's G.O.L.D. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@OrbvsTomarvm]

BTW, I think it was you that recommended the use of stirrups a couple of years ago. I bought a heavy duty set this time round and man you can't beat them for ROM & TUT. Thanks John 👍🏻👍🏻

[@taipeitaiwan10]

Watching this makes me feel like I am doing pullups wrong. I always go until my eyes can meet bar level, but the contraction might not be there so I'm wasting my effort. thanks John.

[@ianfraser2009]

I was taught to take my chin over the bar

[@PurifyWithLight]

@@ianfraser2009 That's how I've always seen it done too and why I never do them unassisted. Hell, I rarely see anyone over 200lbs doing them in my gym.

[@vibezz2791]

If you are doing pullovers does it matter if you are lying “with” the bench or diagonal? Or is it just preference?

So THAT'S what a rhomboid looks like. #strongaf Thanks for posting these btw. ^_^
