[@chewysanchez1]

RIP John. Will be deeply missed, thank you for your sacrifice and the gifts you’ve given the fitness community with your knowledge and positivity. This workout is for you today.

@@KenanTurkiye that’s awesome! I just think it’s cool because he literally lives about an hour drive away from me.

[@MT-sq3jo]

Same. I need to pay him a visit if I know where he works out 😁

[@redlinefitnessx]

@@MT-sq3jo I thought about seeing how much he’d charge just fo do a session.

[@MT-sq3jo]

@@redlinefitnessx With the money he’s making on his supplement and YT businesses, he might not have time to coach too many, single session walk on is probably a “no go” for him. I think someone like Charles Glass charges several hundred per session for his long term customers.

Always a great watch. Can't wait for the gyms to open in the UK

These are bit more bulky than traditional dumbbells but the rubber grips are great for keeping hold. Very comfortable and the weight selection is convenient and easy.

[@StayCoolKeto]

*Great workout, john! Love from Thailand by way of England! cheers for the polite calm cool info as always!* 💪💪💪

[@enigmatic7665]

Don’t have push day until tomorrow, but I’m gonna give this workout a shot! Thank you so much for all the amazing information. You have saved me a lot of hassle

[@mymyselfus4167]

Did this today , have to say its a killer but really enjoyed it .traded the last set for a few DIPS and some bent over tri extensions, as in the vid probably didn't need them but it felt nice to round it off on something isolating

[@anmoldilipkumar733]

Great video! Excited for your new program as well!

[@axemanace]

Loved the workout, modified/added a few things. Got a couple little bruises from the pump about 2 inches from the elbow. This is my new Wednesday workout.

[@jesse73772]

I got to the pushdown, and right before it cut to the next exercise saw what he was lifting…. John was a beast but still so humble

[@freddiet3]

Mountain dog fever in full effect at my gym. Told a few people about the channel after someone asked me why I leg curl before heavy squats. Now the whole gym is doing cage presses, meadows rows, slight decline DBs, etc. spreading like wild fire!

[@mountaindog1]

I love it!

[@joojotin]

Thats kinda hilarious

[@rayr.1813]

John you are really awesome man glad to see you are healthy and still providing great content. Would love to see maybe some ideas for workouts on days when you are pressed for time but still wanna get a workout in.

[@thecoachestrayner]

‘These aren’t gunna be brutal sets’. Looks brutal. Ok well I need to train harder then haha.

[@chronometa]

That's what I was thinking. He was totally gritting his teeth lol

[@LadyThor]

I'd guess that 5 reps @ 65%1RM should only be an RPE of around 2 or 3 (essentially too low to even think in terms of RPE) for the first set, but that metabolic fatigue should give a nice burn by sets 5 and 6 with only 60 seconds of rest

[@TCraig00]

His idea of brutal is like borderline hospitalization

[@chronometa]

@@TCraig00 I'm a natural and using his programs. And they are working great. But you got to use the rpe's correctly and possibly take 1-2 weeks at the start to asses tolerance

[@TCraig00]

@@chronometa I have no doubt his methods are tried and true. Best content on KZbin for making gains. Hands down

I've been trying out supinated grip for the tricep press exercises (pressdowns, overhead extensions, etc). It's a bit harder to hold onto the bar, but for me, it feels like I'm getting much better tricep contraction and it's really easy to keep my elbows at my side. I might even have to use wrist straps since your grip is pretty horrible that way though... even with noticeably lighter weight than a pronated grip.

[@ayoopat7372]

These are interesting. I will have to adapt a bit as my gym is very small and we don't have all the equipment, but I am interested in results and I want to add some power building workouts :) Thank you for this workout, John!
