I’m halfway through this workout (subbed the glute bridges for single leg dumbbell hip thrusts, hope that’s ok I have trouble feeling my glutes with the bridges) and I am seriously considering trading my soul to the devil for the ability to skip leg day... 😂

Hey John, just a small tip, you can now put "chapters" in your description so people can easily navigate around the video to different parts of the workout. It's basically a list of timestamp and then some text for the titles in the video description (google for more details). But I think it would be great for your vids like this!

[@skeletorrobo]

Check my post if it helps.

[@NaturalHypertrophy]

5:15 happy to see banded good-mornings in there, this is an exercise that everyone should be doing, gym or no gym

[@Createtobuild]

To be honest, I didn't even know them. But I will try them on hamstring day for sure!

[@MatiDota]

I Will try them. Yesterday i did one leg rdl and rdl with bottles of water

[@a.k2156]

Thats some Brian Alsruhe wisdom right there!

[@Zeusbeer]

I know right! I love them, I would normally do good mornings with a pretty much empty barbell, but the bands give a simular response now that I don't have a gym. I might actually make some gains for my deadlift without a gym lol, 3x20 is kinda awfull still

[@codyboudreau2838]

You're doing a good service teaching this. Especially having such a relaxed demeanor is probably setting people's minds a ease.

Tell your kid that I thought that the yogo trick was very cool

I've learned so much from John I had no idea he passed untill recently So broken hearted for Mary and the kids I still watch his videos & again I learned alot Truly sad & sickened He definitely is a man I respect 🙏 💔 So sorry for his family. Thank you for passing effective knowledge 😔

After ten years of military service, and the use of the Russian Bell, for nearly 20 years I found you on KZbin. After 15 minutes watching your video I ordered a whole set of risistance bend. The Russian bell has been left behind, and now I only work with them. Greetings from Serbia!

[@djcoolrule]

I truly appreciate all the workouts you've provided for us. These at home workouts are huge for many of us that don't have weight equipment at home. Praying that some type of vaccine is created so we can get back to some type of normalcy. God bless you and tell your son keep up those yoyo skills and good luck in future Rubix cube competitions.

[@mountaindog1]

thank you!

[@Ca5inoDic3]

I’m incorporating these band exercises into my actual leg days now, never mind just being stuck in the house. Either warm ups or finishers for a heavy leg day would be fantastic to implement, thanks John!

[@gabrielburgoskim3403]

You are a very good hearted man John. God bless you and your family! Thank you always for spreading your light and positivity!

[@sw0inThoughtSeize]

Did the banded good morning with a super wide stance to increase tension, my butt was in so much pain. Thank you so much for this John keep it up !

[@americanwolf8972]

I want to thank you for making these kind of videos, im a otr truck driver and its super hard to workout on the road and with videos like this i can finally work out thanks from the bottom of my heart

[@TanginaRubinstein]

Iam ”stuck” in Thailand for a few more days. You videos has been a lifesaver for me. I usually watch them at bed time to calm down and relax. THX!

[@illestdomer2005]

God bless you, John! I had just started scoping out my home gym build when COVID-19 hit, and the only bigger run than TP was 45s... I saw your video and immediately ordered your band package from EliteFTS. Thanks for all that you do, and I pray you and your family are doing well 🙏

[@mountaindog1]

thank you!

[@tenacious-d]

Thanks John. Bless you for these bands videos. I got my set delivered this morn from elite fts and just crushed my legs with them. I’m 47 and they haven’t blown up like this since I competed 20 years ago. Thanks for looking out for us, Mountain Dog!

[@mountaindog1]

of course!

[@kriegerstan2476]

I'd like to thank you for these videos on the band work outs and especially your videos on nutrition, which was something I never really concentrated on. You deserve every bit of that ad revenue keep it up!

[@jerryancel6944]

One of the few people I listen to on fitness. Thank you. You are an amazing family man and I love your videos. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

[@chezpaiz]

Thanks a ton Mountain Dog. I’m so stoked that you’re putting out these great videos. I mourned the closing of my gym last week, but now I’m ready to get after it. All the best to you and your family. -C

welcome

[@jrgennordland425]

Your videos have changed the way i trained i was 70 kg now im 88kg in one year(175cm tall). Thank you from Norway.

[@sumkin5]

Thanks John, another one for hamstrings. Tie a band around lower end of a table or column, lie on the stomach, fasten the band around your ankles and do your usual "Lying Leg Curls". Start with a heavy band, go to lighter ones. Unilateral training is also nice.

[@annabelle2833]

Thank you so much for all these videos you're posting!! Our gyms got shut down in the U.K last night. You're a life saver!!

[@mjkraft9365]

I love John’s T-Shirt! Sure miss John a great deal. I have been re-watching so many of these videos.

[@joshsoprano4096]

Step ups are one of the few exercises that don't aggravate my knees, what a brilliant band idea!

Thanks for putting out all of these home workout routines - and making them so easy to follow along.

Do you know what I think it's wholesome af that he has his son just doing random yoyo tricks in the video. Reminds me of my little lad 😊 Great informative KZbinr👌

[@MehdiGlz]

These are some of the best home/band workout videos out there. I only have a set of bands and a 35lb dumbbell, legs have been the hardest to workout due to my lack of imagination and difficulty finding good material, but this looks like a great workout that will properly hit your legs. I'd also like to comment that when I started seeing real gains on my legs was after reading the article "Legs the mountain dog way" on t-nation.

[@hawser23]

Just did this workout for the first time and oh my it’s a good one. My legs are burning!! Thanks for the workout, much appreciated!! 👌🏼👍🏼

[@Jo.MeL95]

The most trusted trainer out there! Thanks John. I did some wall squats with a foam roller on my back. Fried my legs.

[@chiel-]

We miss you sir. 😢🕊🙏🏻

[@rizzlepmizzle]

I did this yesterday and my legs are absolutely cooked! Amazing what is possible with bands. Thank you!

[@msmith1845]

Hamstring Curls: if you have a doorway chin up bar or something high to loop a long band through, you can hook the other end of the band around your heel, lay down on your back and do hamstring curls, starting leg high and bringing the foot to the floor. Do a drop set with multiple bands, partials or forced reps with the free non working leg to assist. Leg extensions working the stretched position: Anchor a band overhead like with ham curls above. For quads you can sit on your shins on a cushion, lean back like an exaggerated sissy squat and stretch, try to push your feet through the floor (imagine doing a leg extension) to move upright. Keep your shoulders in line with your hips. Use a band to assist you or do drop sets with them. Do these last when your warmed up and already done the Bulgarian split squats. Supersetting these "kneeling thigh stretchers" into explosive bodyweight jump squats works well. Stay strong every one. Thank you, John.

[@juliocesarcordeirocosta9835]

I did this workout today after buying a set of bands and it was really intense! The burn on isometric holds is great! I will do it again, for sure!

[@rolandoxiv6934]

great video , so we can keep giving the body a nice workout , thanks john

[@T1meTr4veler]

Over time I've been watch your videos I realise how much I hate you. For the simple fact whenever I see you do this I also follow it. It shows how simple things look yet how hard they actually are when performing them. There is no weights, no dumbbells, squat racks or leg presses. Just a band. How effective it still is. You're one of the most genuine, dedicated people I've seen. Very knowledgeable and interesting. It's a pleasure to witness you. Thank you for posting this content for us to see, enjoy and follow. Hope you and your family are well. Keep up this work. Stay safe. God bless.

[@mountaindog1]

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ultrafloss492]

Thank you MD!! I noticed the lack of 'property of' on the shirt of your wife, very smart lol. I hope you and your family have everything in abundance and available. Thanks very much for the workout suggestions, I had a fantastic workout! Stay healthy and strong!! 🤠

[@deutschmitmichael4399]

Currently working my calves every 48 hours. a) rest-pause single leg calf raises (1set +4x mini-sets per leg) b) your insane iso-hold monster-set. ;) I count 6 breaths (10-11 sec) for each squeeze after 10 full reps. I started with barely 30 reps and could hardly get outta bed for two days, then the pain disappeared and two weeks later I could finish 52. Getting close to your 60! Amazing work, thanks for the ideas. My calves have actually started growing already and I I thought I have really bad genetics for them. :)

[@deffroadceltaiddcelticawak4150]

Rest in peace Mr Medows you are a legend of the sport.

I just got done doing my legs at home before watching this. I was worried about how my legs were gonna go, but actually got a pretty good workout in. Just have to be creative and experiment. I'm glad i picked up a couple new things watching this.

[@warnercyr1229]

Thanks a mill John for making these videos. Now at the very least I can try and maintain what I have till this crisis is over. Shout out to your son's yoyo trick. I have a hard enough time just getting it to come up and down more than once.

[@esjebesje8638]

I tried the Bulgarian split squat with band and really thought it wouldn’t be hard. I couldn’t be more wrong. It’s super hard. It burnsssss!! Great additional exercise for me. Thanks!!!!

[@shack7631]

Great stuff with these band workouts. My gym has just closed due to pandemic, so these workouts will keep me going.

[@Ramsefall]

Thanks for providing some insight for additional at-home leg exercises, John, much appreciated. I especially found the 1-leg stair quad step up useful. Great that you include your family. You and your bride have great physiques, and your son has a talent with that yo-yo...continue to encourage him! As a 50-year-old who's been lifting for 31 years, exiling myself from the gym during this pandemic has not been fun, but I'm making due with the use of bands. I can tell that I'm losing some muscle mass as I've only been training each muscle group once/week with bands just as I've always done with weights. I'm thinking that in the absence of actual weights I would benefit from increasing the volume with more reps and double the frequency each week in order to regain the mass I've lost. I've begun that approach this week. What are your thoughts on this strategy, sir? Gyms are open again but I'm hesitant to get back in there and breathe everyone's workout air so I'm sticking with home training for the time being. Not wanting something for nothing, I found that doing 1-leg calf raises gets a better burn in less reps versus raises on both simultaneously. Other viewers who haven't tried that yet might also find it useful. Keep up the great work and stay healthy!

[@allyoursrob]

The one on the steps, Mrs.John did was excellent John

[@franciscoiramain3337]
