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.”

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.
