Cutler and Coleman’s healthy competitions

Ronnie’s retirement in 2007 put an end to the fierce rivalry. Even though Ronnie frequently defeated Jay in the Mr. Olympia competition. But Cutler never failed to pose a difficult challenge for him as well. Coleman became more motivated to win the contest due to participating with Cutler.

Additionally, they challenged each other to play at a greater level and gave stellar performances in the bodybuilding contest. Since his retirement in 2013, Cutler has been busy growing his business of protein supplements for bodybuilding. On the other hand, Coleman is resting due to his several surgeries, which he went through a lot.
