Jay Cutler discussed how he takes in carbs on a weekly basis.

Jay Cutler is known as one of the top bodybuilders of all-time. He continues to work on his physique and share his wisdom in retirement. After a successful career, Cutler built a successful social media platform. This includes JayMail, which is his personal newsletter sent to fans who subscribe. In a recent edition, Cutler shared his secrets on adding carbs into your diet.

Cutler, who is a four-time Olympia champion, has been transforming his physique during his “Fit-For-50” challenge. He has been sharing different physique updates where he is looking as shredded as ever. This is because Cutler knows the secrets to improving your diet plan on a weekly basis.

Carbohydrates provide energy and could play an important role when it comes to training in the gym. At the same time, carbs provide some pitfalls as well. There are many junk food options in terms of carbs and Cutler mentions that these sources can cause inflammation. He has found a way to balance carb consumption and limiting that inflammation.

“Every four to five days, I like to hit a high-carb day. This is not a big binge day, on a ton of junk, because that creates a s**t load of inflammation.”

In the past, Cutler has also discussed gastric issues that come with heavy diets. He has suggested ways to time out meals strategically, mainly before bed.

“We talk a lot about fat loss and fasted cardio but what a lot of people don’t appreciate is how good it is for digestive health.”

About Jay Cutler

Jay Cutler is an IFBB pro bodybuilder born and raised in Worcester, Massachusetts. He began working in his brother’s concrete pouring company at just 11 years old, and he credits the experience he gained there with developing his work ethic and desire to succeed at an early age.

In high school he excelled on the football team due to his natural size and strength, and decided to pursue bodybuilding after further developing his physique. In 1993, he graduated from Quinsigamond Community College with a degree in Criminal Justice and in 1996 he earned his pro card after winning the Tournament of Champions.

For years, Jay had been gunning to take the Olympia title from the 8x champ, Ronnie Coleman, whom he had a longstanding rivalry with, and Jay did just that. The rivalry between these two was considered to be one of the greatest in bodybuilding, as Jay was always right on the heels of Ronnie.

Jay won the Mr. Olympia titles in 2006, 2007, 2009, and 2010. A bicep injury prevented him from competing in the 2011 tournament and he officially retired from the sport in 2013. He now continues to run Cutler Nutrition and Cutler Athletics to spread his knowledge onto others so they too can see amazing results like he has.

Jay Cutler continues to help fans in different ways with workout plans and tips on diet plans.
