Bodybuilding is a sport with no right way of training; some forms might work for some people but not others. This is what happened with the four-time Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler. With years of experience, he found a form that worked for him best and helped him become who he is today.

Cutler recently posted a short video on his YouTube channel doing the front squats. While the Quadstomp benefitted from this technique, form police on the Internet criticized him. Let’s take a look at what the fans think about Cutler’s form.

In the video, Jay Cutler performed the weighted squats. But these were the front squats that Cutler did, and not with some lightweight. He lifted 315 pounds, which is a challenging task, and the 50-year-old did eight reps of the weight. But his fans wanted more from him.

It is quite rare to witness Cutler getting criticized by his fans for his form. The bodybuilder who dethroned the eight-time Mr. Olympia, Ronnie Coleman, has gone through a lot of hit-and-trial methods. This is one of them, and it helped him win such great titles in his life. But his fans had something else in mind.
