When it comes to bodybuilding, Jay Cutler needs no introduction. Cutler has won the Mr. Olympia title four times and the Arnold Classic title three times. He is also credited with ending the winning streak of none other than Ronnie Coleman.

When Coleman was going for his ninth Mr. Olympia, Cutler stopped him from achieving it. Despite all the glory, he is a kind person and has been an inspirational source for the current generation of bodybuilders.

“Each day I would take out some chicken and some steak,” Cutler said and continued, “that’s pretty much all I hate besides eggs.” Once the four-time Mr. Olympia bought a whole cow. This was his regular diet, which also included eggs. He ate almost 20 egg whites a day.

“So, when I had the eggs, I went to a local farmstand, and I bought thirty dozen eggs at a time,” Cutler said. Michael was taken aback by this. Anyone would be surprised by the number of eggs he bought. 

Cutler does realize that food is very essential to maintaining a proper body. This is also the reason why he consumes a lot of egg whites.

Cutler does not really enjoy food in general

Cutler had a reason for having such a restricted diet. As the 4 times, Mr. Olympia revealed that he just doesn’t enjoy food in general.

Although Cutler likes to eat sushi a lot, since sushi rice has a lot of sugar in it, he is unable to eat it. He will just consume some normal fish rather than sushi. It’s just that there’s nothing there that excites him anymore.
