‘King’ Ronnie Coleman?and?Jay Cutler?are two legends who never compromised on their rivalry or their?bodybuilding preparation. For them, working out and eating healthy was the main crux of getting the Sandow trophy. Jay Cutler had a beastly diet where he spent $50,000 on food and Ronnie had something similar but spent less than his rival. Both of them won their share of Sandow trophies but their diets had major differences.

After sweating it out in the gym and experimenting with his iconic splits and workouts, Coleman went back to having the daily diet that he had been consuming for 25 years. This diet cost him $40,000 less than Jay Cutler?s and Coleman still won the Mr. Olympia 8 times. Coleman revealed the details of his diet on ‘The Iced Coffee Hour’.

Coleman gave an astonishing answer about spending half of what Cutler did and said, ?Oh man I was spending at least probably a good extra $10000 just on food.? He also disclosed about the change in his eating habits, ?But once I started eating six times a day and eating more because I used to eat like 10 12 ounces of food.?
