“It’s not about how many times you win it, it’s about the fashion you win in it in.”
“I don’t train on a specific body part schedule, I train specifically how my body tells me I need to. I kinda go by feel, if I’m really sore I’ll take a day off, I don’t have a set day off.”
“The biggest achievement that I never expected was to give the motivation to a lot of people, when I was just trying to be motivated myself to go to the gym.”
“My first Olympia in 1999 I placed 15th out of 16 and I almost quit after that show. I actually questioned myself the only time ever in my career.”
“Iv’e done it, I’ve lost it, I’ve won it back.”
“When something’s (your muscle) so tight, you’re not gonna get the blood in there like you need to. you have super tight muscles and no flexibility and no stretching, your muscles aren’t gonna grow.”
“I get a common question all the time, Jay what’s the secret? What’s the secret? And there is NO SECRET. The secret is progression, consistency and dedication day in and day out.”
“You learn from mistakes, I’ve failed at so many things and that’s how I’ve become successful, because I know the mistakes, and you have to make those mistakes before you learn.”
“Push as much heavy weights as possible, heavy weights build muscle.”
“About the mentality of a body builder, something has to be triggered inside of you, you can’t be normal. You have to have that satisfaction of never being satisfied.”
“Stress seems to be the biggest factor in training for a competition, you can’t have a lot on your plate and focus 100%. So you have to have everything spaced out perfectly.”
“You can never teach anyone training advice.”
“This is a career, and if you go at it full tilt all the time, you are going to burn yourself out, so you have to set a certain pace for yourself to the point where you are continuously moving forward and being great.”
“I’m always going to weight train, but not to that extreme.”
“I stuck with the basics of training.”
“The biggest misconception is that we do things very different, that’s not the case, its very very basic what a pro body builder does. I’ve been basic since the beginning.”
“Jay Cutlers my favourite body builder of course, he’s the greatest body builder of all time.”
