Cardiovascular health is a big concern for everyone after a certain age. However, it is surprising that the concern is more in the fitness and bodybuilding industry, where people stay fit, and are expected to have better heart health. This fear comes from the use of supplements and steroids, and the strain the body goes through for muscle building. In recent times, the bodybuilding world has also lost quite a few icons to heart attacks, raising the fear that already exists. 4x Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler has been one of those who have been vocal regarding the importance of maintaining heart health.  

The IFBB bro, who previously came clean about his own steroid use, gave valuable information on cardiovascular health in his recent newsletter. Cutler gave the ‘Jaymail’ snippet on his Instagram stories to ensure that people would read his free newsletter and be more aware of their heart health.
