Jay Cutler spills beans on his triumph at Mr. Olympia 2009
The King of bodybuilding, Ronnie Coleman, retired in 2006 after failing to claim his 9th Mr. Olympia. Jay Cutler claimed his second Mr. Olympia in 2007, but then-bodybuilding fans criticized his win. Even though Culter came with peak conditioning in 2008, his symmetry and aesthetics were not up to the mark that left him with second place.
Dexter Jackson, who claimed his third Arnold Classic that year, stood first in the Mr. Olympia event. But Cutler resolved to claim his lost Sandow Trophy next year. Sharing a picture from his training, Cutler captioned his post, “2009, a time when I was doubted. I didn’t feel defeated. I was motivated to do what no one else ever did; win the title of Mr. Olympia back!“

The Quad Stomp pose that has entered history in 2009
The bodybuilding sport has multiple facets to it. Apart from a training regime and strict diet, it is the posing routine that fetches the bodybuilders their titles. The 2009 Mr. Olympia is a testimony to this, as the Quad Stomp pose of Cutler became a sensation and is still revered as one of the best poses in the sport.
The pose also became synonymous with Culter, as he is now known as the Quad Stomp. “I went to drop the quad stomp, you know, I put a strain on my hamstrings a little bit because I hit it so hard,” the 4x Mr. Olympia champion recently recalled. Cutler further added that hitting the famous pose had left him strained.
Jay Cutler recently turned 50, and his approach toward the sport is undying. From training, till his nose bled to having a healthy approach toward the sport, Cutler had come a long way. But his 2009 win will forever be etched in the minds of bodybuilding fans.
