Jay Cutler has left his legacy in the bodybuilding arena with his 2006 physique that helped him dethrone The King of the sport, Ronnie Coleman. After choosing the bodybuilding career over the family construction business, Cutler strode the path of success as an athlete, making a mark in the field. During his three decades in the bodybuilding arena, he made many acquaintances, and Dwayne Johnson is one of them.

Culter shares fitness ideas and diet rituals with his online fitness community through the Cutler Club. In his latest newsletter edition, the Comeback King gave snippets of his first interaction with one of Hollywood’s highest-paying actors, Dwayne Johnson.

Jay Cutler and The Rock’s first interaction

Culter, who competed with arguably the greatest bodybuilder, Ronnie Coleman, had to follow a rigorous training regime in his prime because it wasn’t easy to win over the 5’11” athlete. So, most of the four-time Mr. Olympia’s life was spent at the gym working out. During one of his gym sessions back in the day, he met Johnson.

Dwayne Johnson, who shifted from his elite wrestling career to become one of the most popular Hollywood actors, is also a fitness freak. His ripped figure often keeps him in the limelight, as the fans shower him with compliments and controversies equally. So, what could be a better place for the icons to catch up than the gym when they have a similar passion for fitness?

“Years ago, Dwayne Johnson and myself were filmed in Gold’s Gym, having a conversation..” he shared in his newsletter. Cutler is all praise for his buddy, terming him a “great guy, and a huge fan of professional bodybuilding.” Culter’s latest confession reveals his bond with The Rock. Earlier, Jay Cutler expressed his opinion on the WWE superstar’s steroid abuse allegations.

The bodybuilding community is constantly under constant scrutiny for PEDs’ usage to build muscle. However, such life-threatening drugs cause serious repercussions for a few bodybuilders. So, steroid usage is often criticized by the online fitness community. The extremely ripped physique of the Black Adam actor around the clock led many to speculate on steroid consumption.

Jay Cutler, however, denied such claims and retorted, “One thing I can honestly say and people may look at me differently for this, but Dwayne isn’t that big to me,” and credits the actor’s physique to his dedication. To the unversed, the 51-year-old carries a mobile gym to not miss out on his workout routine while traveling.
