John Meadows Best Gyms In America | Bob's Fitness Complex

[@mountaindog1]

I just read through the comments and I want to thank you all so much for your comments and support of this awesome gym. This makes me really happy to see such appreciation for guys like Bob and gyms of this caliber....bless you all.

[@aliciacasborne2414]

mountaindog1 this is amazing!

[@DrewLSsix]

I wonder if Juji and Tom know about this place🤔 they could make a hell of a video there lol.

[@tomk3620]

BLESS YOU JOHN!

[@oscarzepeda1558]

Thank You John for going there and giving us the tour and Bob for creating this Absolutely Jaw Dropping Fitness and BB Gym !!! this is my 2nd time watching this... my first time, I was literally speechless and my jaw dropped for about 5 minutes, I just couldn't believe that Bob's gym literally goes on forever !!!! And with the best equipment with the latest technology !!! FYI, I'm literally considering on moving there !!! the rents are absolutely ridiculous out here in the Chicago-land area.... like $1500 per month and that's just the rent... $60 parking spot fee plus about another $200-$300 for utilities. I'm actually looking at apartments right now.... and the rents in Omaha/Bellevue are absolutely affordable..... and plus they have Aldi's there !!!! yeah, that's my spot for my protein !!!! I just love those pieces of fresh salmon !!!! Oh yeah, I did see your Aldi body building on a budget video !!! Thank You Again... I'll definitely keep you posted John.... It was your video that made me want to move to Omaha/ Bellevue !!!! I have less than 4 months left until my lease is up... and I'm definitely considering of moving... for a year or two or three ??? Yeah, I definitely want to train and to become a BB, so, I was thinking of possibly moving to Long Island, NY Syossett, NY where Bev Francis Powerhouse Gym is at, I looked around over there, and the rents over there are just like Chicago !!! and then I was thinking, Oxygen Gym in Kuwait, I don't know anything about living in Kuwait, and also, the visa deal, apartments over there, I heard that you have to pay for the full year in advance ??? (that could be in Dubai ??) IDK ??) then the cost of flying there, and what about my car and all of my stuff ??? Ok, now I'm rambling !!! Take Care Everyone !!!

[@FirstnameLastname-pt5ss]

This series makes me hate my terrible gym even more

[@joeappleton3428]

Right there with you Memento..we have Retro and La Fitness which isn't bad,but..it's no where as cool as the gyms we see in this series of greatest gyms

[@anandnairkollam]

It's not the gym. Its what we are ready to do. Barbells, weight, bench and dumbbells are all we need to build a great bod. And tons of food.

[@the_notorious_bas]

This series makes me want to move to the U.S.

[@niclasgleich3285]

You think you have bad gyms? I live in fckn Germany. I have to drive an hour with the train to the next gym with a hack squat. And a Gym with more than 9 plate loaded hammer strength equipment is very rare. even in big citys like cologne. Could you imagine that?

[@davidzaratejr.523]

@@niclasgleich3285 that sucks, doesn't seems like not many people are in to working out there, or maybe u can buy your own weights and work out at home, good luck nick

[@gaurd3]

"Complex" doesn't do this place justice. It should be Bob's fitness World. Plus he has a 14 free day pass. Many gyms don't even give a week anymore. You spend 2 weeks training there, no way you not signing up if you are into working out.

[@mountaindog1]

agreed!

[@porkchop518]

So mad, lived in La Vista for 10 year and never heard of this place. How much does a membership go for here?

[@DrewLSsix]

I live a few minutes away and work even closer to this place. Always assumed it was just another gimmicky planet fitness type gym's. I have a garage gym and am training up for a strongman comp this fall, I will definitely stop by for that 14 day trial! I always tend to slow down then stop training over the coldest part of winter because it's hard not to injure my self when the garage gym is so damn cold.

[@DrewLSsix]

@Bruco Alidas your not wrong, stopped in after work. Got the tour, got in that two week trial but I'll be a member by the end of this week when payday comes round lol. Very impressed all around and it's about two minutes from my work and ten from home, the price is more than fair even before the discounts. I'm getting my fob tomorrow because I want to be able to come in real early.

[@crazykorean2268]

Rotator cuff Machine. My first time seeing that. The owner truly cares about everyone. It's good to see John showing these awesome gym

[@DrewLSsix]

That really caught my eye, I have to tend to my shoulders carefully, especially the right and I do cuff movements with dumbbells by laying on the ground. This looks so much better lol.

[@BryantStarr88]

If this gym was in NYC, they'll put every gym out of business

[@scotlynhatt]

Same here in DC Metro area

[@BrooklynMoor]

They wouldnt allow a gym of such high quality and a strategicly thought out magnitude in NYC. How dare they truly build something for NYC residents like us who know we deserve much more than the 1,000 Planet Fitness,Blink (Planet fitness on steroid), Crunch and its Rich vs Poor membership gym system in addition to the 10,000 "Crossfit" and Barbell clubs thru out the five boroughs which i have no interest.NYSC, Equinox, The Y, none is truly original maybe features different here and there but all high to exorbitantly high and dont live up to their billing.Bobs gym is worth me booking a flight out to Nebraska for.

[@BrooklynMoor]

TRY Club Fitness in Astoria Queens had a free Pass and awesome leg work out machines galore.

[@BryantStarr88]

@@BrooklynMoor lol remember everything affiliated with fitness and looking great with nice pecs abs and quads all started from bodybuilding.the truth of the matter is, a person who knows anything about working out would only need a barbell in order to get in shape

[@erikbonini7400]

@@BrooklynMoor For what's it's worth, I normally wouldn't plug my business on a page I watch for entertainment, but my partners and I just opened up our Elite Gym in Brooklyn. Although it's not the size of Bob's, we recognized that the market had become oversaturated with the planet fitness/ Blinks on one end of the spectrum and the overpriced barbell clubs on the other. That's why our modest sized (about 5,000sqft) gym is equipped with Hammer strength, Nebula, Rogue, Legend, Elitefts and Life Fitness. We wanted our place to be a throwback to the local, more serious bodybuilding/powerlifting gym. I am a gym fanatic and having a place of my own has always been a dream. If you want to check us out, here is our website elitegymbk.com/

[@flch95]

Wow that’s incredible...and my gym can’t even get a safety squat bar lol.

[@joeappleton3428]

That's because gyms owners don't have the same amount of passion as say Bob and others like him who care what they put in there.Gym owners today do it more for profit then passion..and you can't put a price tag on passion

[@maxabdullah6824]

Bob are u even real... man god bless u... such a great guy who’s down to earth

[@donsanders8881]

I have been training for 45 years, owned 2 gyms and trained in some of the best gyms in the country. Bob's is by far the best I have ever seen. Incredible.

[@Hadlor]

This gym used be my stomping grounds back 2013-17. Absolutely amazing gym, amazing staff, Bob is a great guy. Always clean and organized and well maintained. Bob wasn't there when I dislocated my shoulder, but I was in the gym a week later after starting physical therapy, and he made sure to find me and ask how I was. Sadly life moved me in a different direction, but seeing this video seeing how much it has changed and how far it has come, is amazing.

[@Hadlor]

@@brainhakker7133 Yep still going strong every time I drive by

[@jackyellow]

bob sounds like a great owner, wish i could go to this gym one day

[@mrg1168]

Hands down, the best gym I've ever seen!

[@stevehayden6645]

Very proud to be member of Bobs. He is always listening to member needs and wants adding pieces all the time. Also nothing is ever broken longer than a few hours to days. Always clean and oiled. The best!

[@mountaindog1]

100%!!!!

[@porkchop518]

Live in La Vista, if membership isn't to much, I'm willing to drive the extra little bit. Care to share membership cost?

[@stevehayden6645]

Sharpma35 not exactly sure what new memberships cost. Joined before some of the expansions. But I believe it’s similar to Genesis. They do offer a 14 day trial

[@porkchop518]

@@stevehayden6645 wow! Even in the same ball park as Genesis is impressive. I feared it would be like lifetime out west which I've heard 80+

[@DrewLSsix]

@@stevehayden6645 no kidding? I was a member at Genesis, joined when it was Golds and only left because I wasn't getting out that way very often. Hard when a trip to the gym is 45-60 minutes round trip drive time. Looking at the place and knowing the rates weren't listed had me assuming it would be a significant hike and a tough sell. If it's that reasonable I can stop procrastinating lol, I have a decent if tiny home gym but I know I wont do much work out there in the winter because its actually hard to not hurt my self when it's that cold.

[@D.Boon1]

27:50 on my way to Bobs after seeing how amazing of a gym it is!

[@JeeYaoKuneDo]

25:14 - What a nice bro handshake in the background. You can even hear it, lol. And holy crap what an awesome gym - and a pure reflection of the owner. It just radiates integrity, professionalism, knowledge and care. The name is deceiving. Imagine going "Sigh... Guess I'll have to train at this Planet Fitness-like place..." and stepping inside for the first time. This is heaven, regardless of your preferred way of staying fit, get big or whatever your fitness goal might be. Knowing something like this exists somewhere out there is like seeing someone fly a spaceship - and then looking at your hand holding the keys to your old, rusty car in the garage.

[@Keranu]

That guy had been following Bob and John throughout the video, almost as if to not look noticed too.

[@chriswong990134]

We never have these in Hong Kong. We grind with barbells ,dumbells and some hammer strengths. You guys in US are blessed

[@TheBullshit2011]

Chris Wong .. i totally understand what you’re saying.. I live in the states an there’s gyms that doesn’t have half what this guys has... 😢

[@jamesniefer6702]

I don’t even have hammer strength man, just dumbbell barbells and a leg press. Work with what you got. Some people don’t even have gyms!!

[@JRHillJR]

Chris Wong you got everything you need!

[@chriswong990134]

gents I am not saying we are lacking here. Just saying you guys are lucky to have so many big gyms in the state. Been working out for couple years and results are good. Yet it would always be nice to hv such an equipped gym

[@kevs2good133]

James Niefer barbells and dumbbells are pretty much all you need

Wow I just watched a 40 min gym tour... and loved it!!!

[@mountaindog1]

awesome right!

Incredible gym! Can tell John is like a kid in a candy store. So many unique peices. The owner really understands what a good gym is all about, giving back to the members etc. What a legend.

Would love to find out if there are others who are also planning on moving to Bellevue/Omaha because of this Mind Blowing & Jaw Dropping Gym !!!! Yeah, I was thinking of the other gyms that John went to, but, a huge factor for me is the cost of living ??!!!! I have 4 more months left on my lease !!! I'll let you know when I moved there !!!
