Build your own Mountain Dog Chest Workout: https://youtu.be/Rkg-knQr2no
Thank you John. I've been doing all of Jeff Nippards programs, and then I felt confident enough to make my own for awhile. I just finished a cut down to 10% body fat and I'm ready for a long steady bulk. I want to use either Gamma Bomb or Creeping Death
I wish you were still here. One of the greatest not only for training but for sharing his passion the way he did.
I miss you John… you will always be known as a kind person… thank you
Well rip. What killed you?

RIP John. You were one of the best and purest souls in the fitness industry.
