Jay Cutler “Figures” The Rock Is On TRT, Respects Privacy About Natty Status

The Rock

Jay Cutler was asked about The Rock’s status on TRT and shared his honest opinion.

Bodybuilding legend Jay Cutler has not competed in years but continues to be a voice in the industry because of his overall knowledge. During a recent interview, Cutler got into the topic of steroid use and testosterone replacement therapy. When discussing TRT, he shared his opinion on The Rock’s natty status.

During his career, Cutler battled Ronnie Coleman on stage for years. In 2006, Cutler was able to break Coleman’s streak of eight consecutive Olympia titles. From there, Cutler began his own, winning four titles in five years.

Cutler displayed one of the top physique of all-time on stage and The Rock has created one of the best on the big screen. Beginning during his days in WWE, Dwayne Johnson has been one of the best entertainers on the planet and is clearly an elite athlete. Once he left professional wrestling, The Rock became a megastar in Hollywood and has created a massive physique.

For this interview, Cutler ventured out and was featured on FACTZ Podcast to discuss many topics in fitness. From steroid use to how they are depicted in film, Cutler shared his thoughts and The Rock’s natty status was a topic of conversation.

Jay Cutler: “I Would Figure That At His Age, A Lot Of People Are On TRT”

During the interview, Jay Cutler was asked about if steroids have ever made him “crazy,” to which he declined. During the discussion about substances and TRT, he brought up some big names that come up and The Rock was near the top of the list.

“It never made me crazy. And listen, we talk about TRT which is popular now and I know there’s a lot of accusations of who or who isn’t on TRT. Obviously, Dwayne’s name comes up a lot and whatever else.”

Many have questioned The Rock’s natural status over the years because of the insane size and conditioning that he has been able to maintain. At 50 years old, Johnson continues to be a larger-than-life figure, both literally and figuratively.

According to Jay Cutler, there is a respect for the fact that Johnson does not display or discuss his status. Also, he highlights the work ethic of The Rock in the gym.

“He doesn’t ever go out there and to give him some sort of respect factor, like he doesn’t go out there and say I’m natural. He just doesn’t talk about it. You know, I know his work ethic, I would figure that at his age, I mean it’s so common, that a lot of people are on TRT.”

At the end of the day, Cutler believes that anyone’s status of natural or enhanced is their business. Cutler has been open about his steroid and has explained how his regimen has not changed.

“What he does is number one his business. I come out and say, ‘Hey I’m on TRT.’ Because let’s be real, looking at my physique at the wildly muscled look of 300 pounds and I was winning Olympias at 270, if I claimed I was natural, you would have killed me.”
