The perfect dumbbell row  

He's still TEACHING 💯

Any time I train I I hear John say drive with your elbows. Literally every time. RIP

When John speaks, we listen! Thanks for keeping his spirit alive

He was always such a no BS, unselfish, kind of guy. If only the world had more like him.

Such great advice!! Miss you dearly, John.

I love these shorts, they help so much with my form. Thank you, John.

John will forever be a king. He’s still helping me every day that’s for sure.

Wow I started following this guy over the last month and just found out he’s passed. RIP John. Thanks for being a great teacher

I learn something from John everyday. Thank you 🙏

Thanks for everything you’ve done and continue to do for the gym community. You’re missed dearly.

Best coach I’ve ever had! I’ve learned more from him than I have any trainer I know in real life. I’m still in shock he’s not here anymore but my prayers go out to your family John.

He's the shit, need more of these! He's missed.

God Bless you, John Meadows and family 🙏🙏🙏

I love the "common mistakes while working out" vids

He was an excellent teacher. Even do he was on gear, he never denied it and was always up to helping natural lifters achieve their potential. I wish i can have one once of this mens calmness.

Great teacher!! RIP John

Genius, Genuine, Gentleman. A true legend.

Miss this man! He’s a game changer for training.

He was a QUALITY HUMAN BEING. My Heart goes out to his family! Great Husband and Father and a ambassador to fitness

Thank you, best dumbbell tips I have seen

He was such a good teacher

Damn, I miss this dude...

This is one of those guys that is just straight up cool and someone I’d want to be friends with.

Rest in peace John miss you buddy

Looked up an instruction for the dumbbell row and found this. Exactly what I needed

Such a smart guy. His shorts always pop up on my feed and it feels like he’s still here. God bless him. PS, this is why I prefer chest supported dumbbell rows haha

The way he explains movement has helped me so much 👍🏽 wish this legend was still around, I suppose he still is in sense with these videos

Love shorts, to the point and no commercials! I’m still learning from the Master 😁👍

Miss John…….Legend. Also miss all the t-shirts he wore too that were always cool. Not your typical workout shirt

What a great guy he was.... I really wish I could have trained with him, just once....

Rip the greatest love how simple he put everything

I use John's technique for chest supported DB rows and program meadows rows from time to time as well. RIP great guy

Thank you sir!

Every video this guy makes is incredibly informative. Well done sir.

Couple more seconds of the Man the legend actually doing some reps plz ,,,Personally I try to watch and mimic his method concise , hard when there's half a second of him actually doing the movement

Lets not forget this legend !!🙏💪

John legitimately taught me how to train lats. I could never get the connection but after a few of his videos I've been blowing them up EVERY SINGLE LIFT. Thanks John. You gave me back my rows, lat pulldowns, and pretty much anything that isn't a straight arm pulldown lol.

God Bless you John 🙏🏽🙏🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Every short I see of this guy, I really wish I would have found him early in my lifting days. Did a lot of things wrong and have had to find the good way for my body through trial and error and a lot of the things I see him speak on are the things I've learned on my own by getting hurt.

Thank you for that third tip ❤️

Did these today and I always think of the best teacher when I do. ♥️ Miss you John!!

Never met him but I miss him....great stuff

It makes me sad every time I think that he's not here, but he's still giving us knowledge. RIP

Best trainer EVER!! A true legend!

We miss you king 👑

Basically, connect to the lats. If you have a good connection, then you should be able to feel what works and doesn't and in turn perform an effective row. Put another way, "drive with the elbow." And I agree 100% on the last tip. I might just add watch where you draw the elbow. Flared vs near the ribs can make a big difference. 👍🏻

Good tips, I do these 2 days a week and try my best to have good form, and this taught me something new 👍👍

Thank you for the teaching 🙏

Looks like Luke Skywalker when he went back to the Degobah system and just focused on working out instead of Jedi training.

Thank you for sharing your experience and I hope you have a great rest of your day 👍

It’s actually crazy the amount of quality content John meadows gave us for free. Great teacher

love this man. RIP

Fuckin legend! Rip John.

Legend.

RIP You are missed!

Bless his memory!

maaan John is so great he teaches even after passing…legend

Me, eating a Big Mac: ***drives with elbows*** 🍔 🚗

Thanks for all the knowledge, RIP.

Good man, shame he's gone

Still the best John lives on

Absolutely on point

Luke the force is with you...

I miss this guy

Brilliant!! Low rows at the end of the bench for a stable base 💪🏼💯👍🏼

The legend I remember watching his workouts video when I was in high school 🏫

I’m diggin the tshirt!

Miss ya man.

The best advice I heard was imagine you’re pulling your elbow to the ceiling

Thank God for this man. Rip

I miss this guy RIP

Your a legend bro 🙌

💪😎 Mountain dog! A true legend!!!

I, as a beginner, tried the staggered stance db rows and it definitely is better for me bc it is almost a compound movement, working core stabilizers. My lower back was sore first I tried them.

Love your videos man so helpful

Miss him.

Great information! 💪💪

Miss you mountain dog

Always RIP to the legend!!!!!!!!

Great tips on form for the dumbbell row 💪❤🙏

About damn time we saw the example exercise, the last second

RIP. best teacher

Real hero sir

I'm still sad that we loss 😪

Great tips! Another reason to not put knee on bench is to avoid inguinal hernias

I always listen to John’s advice. This morning I got into a car accident on the way to work. RIP Mountain Dog Note to self: Don’t always drive with my elbows

We miss you dude.

The elbow queue is the reason I’m getting anything out of my pull days John is one of the best coaches for bodybuilding on youtube end of discussion R.I.P Mountain Dog

Legend ❤️

Tips from the other side....legend

A legend..

If Luke Skywalker decided to Get Jacked instead of using the Force.

I am tall. So I set the bench on an incline and do rows off the back of it like he showed at the end. Works great

You came up on my yt randomly and I thought you were mark hammil. You are a cool teacher, subscribed.

A great coach. My obliques are so strong. Now, I see the reason.

Thankyou bro

i’ll trust this guy any day

Legend has spoken! 🙏

It’s very difficult to isolate your lats, most people turn it into a bicep exercise. Great advice 💪

Luke Skywalker got swole af
