Jay Cutler reveals what held him back from winning against Ronnie Coleman
Jay Cutler was featured in an interview by the The Iced Coffee Hour on their official YouTube channel. It was captioned, “Meet The Bodybuilder Making $200,000 Per Month | Jay Cutler.” As the video gradually proceeds, he is asked what according to him makes him stand out as a bodybuilder, and what pulls him down.
To this, he replied, “It’s the quads for sure for me. I mean I had tons of detail, and I had striations, I mean the quad stomp is something I am known for, especially with the younger generation now. Uh, for me you know my back held me back or against Ronnie Coleman because he was just so advanced in the back area.”
Ronnie Coleman has an enormously muscular back, and it is not an unknown fact. According to Jay Cutler, it would not have taken him as long as he did to defeat the King, had he had a better-conditioned back. Despite being insecure about his back, his name is etched in the realms of the sport, and well, the journey to the top was not a smooth one.
