The four-time Mr. Olympia, Jay Cutler, and his dominance in bodybuilding is not a secret. He has been in the industry for decades. The bodybuilder has proven that age is just a number, even in his 50s, holding a great command over his fitness. His journey serves as a testament to the fact that anything is possible if you pursue your goals with pure intentions.

Recently, a throwback video of Cutler caught the attention of sports fanatics. He stated an unbelievable fact about his physique. He had an imbalanced body when he was young, and it was training that helped him make it look proportionate.

Cutler’s journey from backing down on leg days to becoming the ‘Quad Stomp’

In a short clip shared by Muscle Mind Media on Instagram, Cutler articulated a surprising fact from the early days of his training. When he started out, Cutler did not train his legs for almost three years. “So when I first started training I actually had to back down My leg training,” said the quad stomp.

He briefly told the story of how he suffered and couldn’t even wear jeans because of his disproportionate physique. “I remember even in high school having trouble fitting jeans, and my thighs just because of the shape,” he said. Cutler went on to add, “Once I started training, those thighs developed, I had such a quad sweep and that’s usually the hardest body part to build and I was a huge squat. I mean, I think I squatted 700 at 19.”
