One week ago, four-time Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler shared his plans for his 50th birthday on August 3rd. However, Cutler isn’t planning a grand party or vacation. Instead, the bodybuilding icon talked about starting a 12-week body transformation program to get into the best shape he can be at his age. While Cutler has maintained an impressive physique at 49, he wants to challenge himself and get back on his Olympia-winning diet and training to get ripped and even more muscular.

Before kicking off his training program, the three-time Arnold Classic champion posted a video on Instagram sharing what he had for breakfast during his bodybuilding glory days. In the throwback video, Cutler listed everything he was having. However, fans noticed something in Cutler’s expression.

Jay Cutler and his Mr. Olympia winning breakfast

In the video, Cutler listed what was on his plate. “100 carbs of Ezekiel cereal,” said the bodybuilder while showing a bowl full of cereal. He then pointed to a few slices of bread on a plate. “60 carbs of bread, 15 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 3 pieces of turkey bacon,” said Cutler. The bodybuilding icon who defeated Ronnie Coleman in 2006 wrote that it was the “Breakfast of Champions.”

“What’s your ‘Breakfast of Champions’?” the 49-year-old asked his 4.9 million Instagram followers. He also mentioned that his 12-week bodybuilding transformation program, “Fit for 50 starts today. Let’s get it.” However, while fans answered his question, many noticed how the former Mr. Olympia seemed uninterested in that video. Cutler didn’t seem excited to be having the break of champions, and some fans pointed it out.

Fans didn’t think the bodybuilding icon enjoyed his food

While some fans gave their opinion on how they thought Cutler felt, others gave him props for sticking to his strict diet. “You definitely didn’t seem too excited lol!” wrote one fan. “Why does this make me laugh?” wrote a second. “Definitely didn’t enjoy this by that tone,” wrote a third user. “He looks absolutely depressed, having to eat all that,” another reiterated.

However, people who knew how hard it was to eat like a competitive bodybuilder had a different take. “I bet eating is one of the hardest parts of bodybuilding,” wrote a fan. “I’d be farting all day long. Jesus. Legend,” wrote another fan jokingly.

While different people might have different takes, it’s noteworthy that Cutler said multiple times during his competitive career that he didn’t eat for taste. The bodybuilding icon viewed food as fuel to power his intense workouts.
