[@burdmann24.7]

What what?... ok...... Alexander's on screen personality developing lol

[@waynedavies3164]

Alexander I hope you know how lucky you are to be able to learn from one of the best in the game. I can't wait to see how you come on in the next few years Mr Olympia 2027 I bet money on it.👍

[@deven9565]

You should explain how bands can be made easier/harder depending on where you hold it. E.g. the kid was struggling with pull aparts

[@mountaindog1]

yea my mind went blank - should have had him hold one part of the band and not two...

[@leigh_carmichael]

Wish I was taught this when I was young. Also wish I had such a beautiful grassed area like that haha.

[@jassinijjar4605]

Your sons are multi talented john You're a good parent and they are great sons.

[@brolyui4484]

Next mr olympia 2030💪🔥🔥💯🏋️‍♀️ Gonna be the first one to take a yoyo to the stage with big muscle

[@AageKush]

Just chilling on the beach, yo-yoing, looking swole, girls mirin both your gains and your wild dexterity. A bright future.

[@troy4553]

aww look how he looks at his son! pure love you can see it in his face.. we love you john!

[@SarahMcMaster]

I love that Jonathan was waiting for you to tell him to come back to standing during the pause squats, love all your videos John :)

[@Nobodyyoucarabout]

Alexander is gonna be sacking quarterbacks one day, celebrating in the backfield with a Yo-Yo hahahah

[@dirtyhorse5090]

Such positivity. Very inspiring for these times. Thanks John best of wishes to you and your family

[@zach221092]

John’s house is absolute goals

[@reevesharvey3125]

Love these videos so much. It’s important to me that my kids will be healthy and coordinated so learning how to have them train safely is so good. Glad to see you feeling good and doing what love

[@fdsm9211]

Father/son action. It makes me smile. Nothing better.

[@jacksonwyse514]

Good workout with your boys Mr. Meadows..good to see Dad's having fun with their families, & enjoying the time spent with the family.!

[@harishvk9605]

John meadows: Its hot in here, like 85 dg Alexander : Yeah, its 85 degrees John : U a Parrot or wat! Damn John, no wonder even a heart attack could faze u, no bullshit no nonsense, even if its ur own kid! U keep it real man!

[@michaelmendoza5355]

Thanks so much for this John! Before the pandemic my wife and I invested in a home gym and my two boys have been chomping at the bit to get started. I’m hesitant on where and how to start, but who better to learn from than John Meadows! I can’t wait for this to be released

[@briancurry438]

I miss you John. I have been using your techniques for years now I am going to use the information from this video on my daughter.

[@lawrencemaweu]

Awesome as always.

[@corycoltrain4484]

Thanks John. June 1, we start this afternoon.

[@philipwalker1243]

Thanks for this, my son will love them!!

[@Brodyjaxon]

Alexander’s Strength and Power

[@boryskostenko]

Will do it today! 💪🏼 Thanks John and RIP.

[@illestdomer2005]

Since building out my home gym, my 7 year old asks me constantly when he can workout with me. He wants to “pick up the 25 plate, the 35 plate” and walks around with it like a Husafell stone. I’ve been going through some body weight stuff with him but will definitely incorporate these. Thanks, Jon! Glad you’re feeling better! 🙏

[@TENNESSEETORNADO]

GLAD YOU'RE DOING THIS..

[@MattTruss223]

Awesome video John! Will have to add some of these into the mix for my two boys. I get them out in my gym every now and then, one likes to squat, the other likes to deadlift, both love doing dumbbell curls, haha. Pull-ups are another favorite of theirs. Mostly I just try to make sure they have fun and keep everything positive for them. Thanks for the family content!

[@josephlugo707]

Fantastic and I always pick up something with every video whether it’s form improvements new moves and I’m a big fan of the Ezekiel bread products, so thanks for the French toast recipe. As always, thanks John and fam.

[@Octocoupler]

Ah I feel so sad for John's kid. Keep strong little guy.

[@guilhermevenancio6913]

I love those videos wich you bring the mountainkid, both of you are amazing.

[@QuesadillaLover]

Man if there is one thing I regret in life, is ditching weightlifting class during high school. I'd go with my friends to go walk around when I could have been making sweet, sweet gains instead. Better late than never. By the way John, I'm sure we look forward to your videos more than anything now that gyms are opening back up

[@Caesarnr93]

Same :(

[@stephanreichelt1960]

used to go right after then train until 5 minutes before the last bus home; supper right after

[@kellybeckman79]

Same here. But there was really no one there to show us how to properly lift. I remember lifting so hard and getting so sore, that I didn't want to go back. It wasn't until college where I got hooked for life, but it was because I learned the proper way to lift and gradually increase the workout frequency.

[@stephanreichelt1960]

@@kellybeckman79 only reference was that poster on the wall with all the exercises and I used to do 15 reps on everything because that's what the gym teacher said...

[@kellybeckman79]

Awesome. Going to incorporate these into my son's football team I am coaching

[@jasonkonadu7684]

Thanks for the video coach 💪🏾💪🏾!!! Going to be using this for the young ones in off season for basketball !!!

[@CarlosHernandez-wb5hq]

Imagine if John’s sons are bigger than John at his age.

[@mountaindog1]

they both are..expecially Alexander

[@Toshiinori]

@@mountaindog1 Alexander is looking bigger than last time, you're training him well!

[@jeffP777]

Passing knowledge on to your boys and making it available to everyone else. This is the kind of positivity I need to see in this current mess our world is in. You have some great mannered boys. I swear they are growing faster than seems normal or time is just flying faster than I realize.

[@mountaindog1]

Absolutely!!

[@deadz2268]

Keep up the great content, mountaindog!

[@mavericksization]

Thank ya sir. My 3rd going gym with my 10 yr old. I’m excited. Video really helped. Even as an occupational therapist. Your educating me. Greeting from central ca

[@brentdawgs8905]

I feel like Johnathan is either the shy twin or he is the evil twin brother who's always in time out. Alexander always steals his thunder with the cool yoyo tricks

[@mountaindog1]

haha he is a little shy sometimes!

[@brentdawgs8905]

mountaindog1 the meadows boys won't be so shy once they're jacked and tan like their daddy!

[@fedelercari]

Top quality content right there!! Presented to us by the Mountain Dog and the Mountain Dog Jr.

[@tedbear631]

I'm going to have to start doing this! I've been looking for variation in my workouts and this is great! Thanks and keep the awesome content coming!

[@mountaindog1]

You're so welcome!

[@Johnjay610]

Can't wait to try these with my little guys. Thanks John.

[@mountaindog1]

Have fun!

[@JWeel89]

You're a great dad

[@cornelbritz5162]

RIP sir, thanks for all you shared!

[@LesleyTimbol]

These are great thanks John! Your mountain pups are great demonstrators.

[@mountaindog1]

You are welcome!

[@timpan0]

Good idea to bring the kids in as well!

[@Eggheadvideoproduction]

This is great for me to show my son!

[@MemeGang420]

Cool video John! I'll pass se of these on to my little brothers!

[@flavia4758]

This is super interesting! Not very often we see videos for the younger like this one! Thank you for sharing 😀

[@mountaindog1]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jaredcorreafitness9666]

Great ideas definitely going to be implementing a few of these for me and my nephews 💪🏽

[@mountaindog1]

Fantastic!

[@josephmiranda7047]

Miss you John! Just wanted to say this video really helping me out now that my little brother is starting to become interested in fitness I need some accessories that are age appropriate

[@danielestrada8835]

I love this for my boys.

[@rafaelnascimento6316]

Fantástico🇧🇷💪🏼❤️🔝

[@calumosborne1707]

love seeing mountain dog and the mountainpups

[@kristovatlas]

Alexander did a great job!

[@cedricmaguire9329]

I love it! Videos (and I'm sure your new program) like these really help the kids that want to try out exercise, but are too intimidated or nervous about approaching a coach or peer about learning more about fitness (i.e. being seen). One of my favorite kid friendly exercises are backward uphill bear crawls, because they're 1. goony looking, 2. hard, and 3. a pretty great accomplishment for any person of any age, regardless of how you execute them. When's the yo-yo duel happening?

[@migrowtent5155]

Finally! I've been waiting for some of these videos. I need to get my boys in gear thanks john very helpful.

[@mountaindog1]

More to come!

[@migrowtent5155]

Awesome! I hope to get to meet u and shake your hand some day your a real cool guy thanks again!

[@evaa.6754]

Thank you so much for this . I am also making my son to exercise each and every day

[@mountaindog1]

You are so welcome!

[@WeEducateAndTutor]

i can see john enjoys training more than alex. alex clearly enjoys yoyo tricks more😉. good job to both though👏🏼 and thanks for the useful content

[@mountaindog1]

Thanks! 😃

[@sketchartphoto8117]

good video! those boys look strong enough to mow that huge lawn.

[@mountaindog1]

haha!

[@therealj]

Great video John, I've built a home gym over the last couple months and my 11 year old is slowly finding his way in there more and more.

[@mountaindog1]

That is awesome!

[@impactstrengthconditiining3507]

Good stuff. Continue to RIP mountain 🙏🏾

[@raiharshit9999]

Great video

[@mountaindog1]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@vgrun7325]

Great! I'll use it with mi kid!

[@kiddfamilyfarmllc9962]

Have a 9 and 11 year old . We will.wil try this

[@angelusavila3832]

Great kid! You and your wife are doing a great job.

[@mountaindog1]

trying!

[@CM-hw8uw]

This was a great video, first one I have seen from any of the pros. I have two young sons and always looking for exercises we can try.

[@mountaindog1]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@alwindupal-ag1548]

Mountaindog2 in the making💪

[@thomasfurey00]

Thank you for this video. Just found channel now. This is is perfect 👌. Please can you do a video on nutrition that can help with Kid's and football to help with growth strength bulk building natural. Thanks again pal. 👍

[@billyyousaf2036]

Hi John, Great video! That definitely looks like a great, active programme for kids. I might even try out one of two of those exercises myself. Cheers, Billy

[@mountaindog1]

You should!

[@billyyousaf2036]

Hi John, I definitely will as watching the video gave me a few exercise ideas. Cheers, Billy

[@TrapLiquidator]

Alexander’s a IFBB pro in the making we all know this 💪🏻

[@axellno1759]

I just recently read about the covid can cause blood clogs too. That was the reason of many strokes, heart problems and even the "covid feet" for children. I know you had clogs before, but this could be a reason too. Just thought it worth mentioning. Take care! About the video. It was good but I think you went a little easy on them. :) I remember my 1 year younger brother could do push ups from a head stand. When we started training it was a good measure of progress when I was able to do one.... obviously he could do more by than. :)

[@jeffP777]

AxelL .. luckily John tested negative for Covid.

[@nowaynowaynottoday]

So amazing you share this with your aon and even more amazing he seems interested! I hope if i ever have a boy we can bond over weightlifting and gains

[@mountaindog1]

I hope so too!

[@R2wheelz]

The mountaindog and the mountainpuppy.

[@mohammedmahmoud5575]

I guess the most important thing when it comes to training kids is enjoyment, because it make them love it, and stick to it for the long term

[@mountaindog1]

yep

[@ronin_9]

Alexander getting tall!

[@mountaindog1]

yep

[@MissyTruscott]

I need to put the “seated boxing” into my fitness skills training routine 💪🏼😄

[@MissyTruscott]

Good job boys!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@mountaindog1]

haha yes!

[@entitiessoul]

I would love to see your son get as huge as he can be of course safely. Blessings John.

[@maxpokorny4074]

Hey John.. Great to see you putting back your knowledge into the youth.. Also would love to see Alexander guide you through a few yo-yo tricks!!! At least walk the Mountain dog and Rock the cradle..💪😂👍

[@mountaindog1]

Great suggestion!

[@KevtechITSupport]

He's going to be strong just like his old man, you know what I mean.

[@yslguhda6675]

We miss you John 💖

[@bxsed]

There's always some idiot who has to dislike videos. Some people really have no life lol

[@chrisauge6802]

VictorARTS no kidding...what’s not to like about John’s content

[@TheAdamk12]

It's good thing that KZbin dislikes still count toward overall video interactions in ranking. It's self-defeating to dislike a video.

[@jamiehay1027]

I've never disliked a video ever in the years I've watched. Not even KZbin Rewind.

[@uirmeg]

Some dislikes are accidentally pressed, my toddler messed with my phone sometimes and ive liked,disliked, subbed to all kinds of shit. Dont be so quick to judge people

[@timpan0]

They don't like that they can't grow muscles like John.

[@BonFathead]

Hey john , i have some Q and A questions for you id like to see you answer - What is the most impressive type of athlete you have trained with (e.g. crossfitter , football player etc.) - How did you meet your wife! -Would you encourage your sons to pursue bodybuilding if they were passionate.

[@paramveer8273]

At 4:15 it is single arm snatch

[@mountaindog1]

correct..what was I thinking

[@Rick-se5qm]

👍I wanted to work with weights so much when I was their age. Dad said NO, you will hurt yourself trying to compete with your buddies.

[@juansamudio1171]

So I’m chilling in my community and then I feel an earthquake, I then rush outside and see mountain dog slow lunging

[@hectorbb4225]

Be a good father and teach your children to squad ASS to the GRASS! It's good to see you attacking the infamous myth that you can't work out before "your bone fully develop". We all gotta workout, it's for the best.

[@nicolasochoa2724]

Where can I find this program? Very helpful content.

[@luytluyt4529]

I have a question boys whats the difference between cross body curls and hammer curls in terms of what muscle the two different exercises target mainly or what muscle gets better targeted with the two different exercises ?

[@deven9565]

9:30 those with just 2.5lbs in each hand are killer

[@sunnyroy7602]

Thank you for the video sir . Very insightful... I have a doubt... Can a 9 year old do explosive training with the slam ball. ?

[@BEARDED_VATO]

Your other kid too shy John? Only see the yo-yo master on the channel more often!

[@Phil-S8]

Hahaha the Bulgarian split squat is for kids too.

[@mountaindog1]

there is no escape

[@freddycinelli3792]

Mr. Meadows as always great video.... I have a few ?s for u will u be doing a video for kids for just 💪 arms my son is asking ? And the other ? Is my son is turning 12 this yr and he wants to start going the gym with me.... Is 12 to early for the gym ?

[@mountaindog1]

12 is not to early, but it's time to learn form, not max out - i dont plan on doing just arm video for kids that young

[@dookiecookie8443]

Would you be able to explain why it’s harder for kids to build muscle?

[@mountaindog1]

hormones

[@richarddavis3619]

Hey John this is a great bunch of exercises. Could I start my 9 year old daughter on these or is that too young?

[@mountaindog1]

she can do it - just focus on form..also another video coming out on plyos for kids, she can do some of those...

[@deltabravo8064]

Hi just wondering if you might be able to reccomend a high calorie eating plan for me as iam a type 1 diabetic i have to be careful with what to eat. I am doing a 6 day workout individual muscles each day.

[@GenuwineG]

Mad dog and little dog, he’ll get big soon. He’s still a pup
