Jay Cutler took fans down memory lane of his real struggle

In the realm of bodybuilding, Jay Cutler needs no introduction. He is well described by his incredible body, which was the result of unwavering determination and diligence. His historic win in Olympia brought more dignity and recognition to the fitness world. The Olympia winner recently talked about his past life struggles in a short video uploaded to the MuscleMindMedia YouTube channel. In the video, he opens up about how he struggled to fit in the jeans because of his thigh size.

Unveiling about his thighs and leg training that he stopped doing for three years, he said, “So when I first started training, I actually had to back down my leg training.” Expressing the outcome he received after skipping the leg workout for three years, he further said, “I remember even in high school having trouble fitting jeans and my thighs just because of the shape.”

He further talked about the incredible shape of his legs that he attained after kick-starting the leg training again. He said, “Once I started training, those thighs developed. I had such a quad sweep; that’s usually the hardest body part to build.” Having restarted his leg training, he unlocked beautiful and massive squats. At 19, he was able to squat 700 pounds, which he called a gift he received genetically. Jay Cutler is a man of incredible resilience who once followed the Fit for 50 Challenge, which cured his back pain.
