4X Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler Came Clean About the Age-Old Question Every Bodybuilder Faces in a 7-Month-Old Interview: “Hey, What Do the Pros Take?”

4-time Mr. Olympia winner Jay Cutler is one of the most consistent bodybuilders of all time. In his career, he has won four Olympia titles and has stood in the runner-up position six times. Unfortunately, he competed in Ronnie Coleman’s era. Coleman could have beaten anyone at his peak. Moreover, many people even feel Cutler deserved more titles than he got.

However, Cutler has been under lots of misconceptions regarding the use of illegal substances for massive results. Earlier this year, while speaking to Greg Doucette, Jay Cutler revealed a clear picture of substance use in the bodybuilding industry. So what kind of things do the bodybuilders take?

Jay Cutler revealed the substances the pros take

Many bodybuilders have now cleared that steroids are used in the bodybuilding profession. One of the very famous doubts of the public, when they see massive bodybuilders, is the use of steroids. Jay Cutler is one of the recent bodybuilders to come forward and clear the misconceptions about the extensive use of substances in the bodybuilding industry. What did he say?

Cutler said, “I’ll be honest, off-season, I didn’t take as much. I didn’t do GH (Growth Hormone). I would always take like 500migs a Test and I would use 600migs of Equipoise. Equipoise was my favorite off-season. I didn’t do a lot of orals and once in a while I dabbled.”

Furthermore, Cutler added, “Well, in the beginning, I did my Anadrols and my D-Bols mixed with Testosterone. I used Deca (Deca Durabolin). I wasn’t a fan of Deca. His biggest challenge during the competitive bodybuilding career was to get the ‘exotic drugs’.” According to him, “Exotics were the substances that bodybuilders compulsorily needed to use for the show.”

What is the use of the substances Cutler revealed?

One thing to be sure of is that these substances are pretty powerful and may show severe side effects if taken without proper vigilance. Now, talking about the mentioned drugs. These drugs are administered mostly by bodybuilders for the clear and massive look the sport demands. Other than that, Anadrol can be used for the treatment of cancer and AIDS if prescribed by a licensed practitioner.

In bodybuilding, Anadrol is used to gain dense muscles as it increases the potentiality of other steroids they use. Whereas, equipoise is used for lean muscle gains and better muscle endurance. On the other hand, Deca Durabolin is an anabolic steroid used as a performance enhancer by athletes.

As mentioned earlier, these steroids must not be taken without a professional practitioner’s advice. They bear heavy side effects with them. Some time back, Cutler finally came clean on the use of steroids in the bodybuilding sport. Moreover, he explained the drug usage cycle during the off-season that keeps the bodybuilders in shape and increases their muscle endurance.
