Jay Cutler has often been seen confessing about how much he ate during his peak in competitive bodybuilding. It is needless to say that the bodybuilder considered eating to be as important as his fitness routines. In fact, at times he avoided some junk food items, fearing that he might like them so much that he would find it hard to part with them. In another viral clip, Cutler was again spotted briefly explaining his food habits back in his day.

Winning four Mr. Olympia titles and defeating the eight-year-long reign of Ronnie Coleman definitely requires a man who is built differently. And Cutler, with his food habits, surely fell into that category. The bodybuilder had also revealed that he used to eat as often as every two hours around the clock.

Jay Cutler ate 4 pounds of meat every day

In one of the viral clips of Cutler, he was asked about food, and the 50-year-old bodybuilder did not hesitate to inform us that food is very important. He also talked about how much meat he was consuming every single day. He stated, “The food is everything. I was eating 6–7 times a day. I was eating 4 lbs of meat a day, pretty consistently. You know, it is just every two hours. Like just clockwork.”

He also added that, because he ate so much, he also had to visit the toilet quite often. “We talk about genetics, you know. I definitely spent a lot of time on the toilet. Let’s put it that way, man.”

When he was asked about the motivation source for such extremes of food intake, Cutler chose to reply with one word. He declared, “Mr. Olympia.” While talking about foods, Cutler had previously mentioned how he had never tried KFC in life because of fear.

Why did Cutler fear trying KFC?

In one of his posts, Jay Cutler talked about how he had never tried one of the most popular fast-food chains, Kentucky Fried Chicken. He revealed, “I’ve never tried Kentucky Fried Chicken. So, I don’t know what it tastes like.” Then the bodybuilder gave a reason: “I eat to get big. I don’t care what it tastes like.” And because of that, he considered that KFC might not be a good option. Yet he also confessed soon after, “Because I’m afraid I like it.”
