I know I don't know everything. But I've been a natural bodybuilder for 3 years and it's literally encompassed my life. I know what I'm talking about when it comes to this particular subject.
Mario Valenzuela check Kei Green Hi is the best and he do all things about gym with big heart Hi is really smart and sad becouse never win Mr olimpia but for me KEI GREEN IS THE BEST
definitely surprised how far he goes down on the leg press, i like cutler, although not my favorite, but i definitely respect him and also the fact that he goes as low as he does on leg press and other excercises, you see alot of other guys pretty much unlock there knees and thats it..
Jay cutler said this in an interview before. The reason why he uses machines is to avoid injury before a contest. You can train heavier aswell. I think too many fitness gurus have bashed machines for so long that everyone thinks they are bad for building mass, but it doesnt really matter. The only thing I dont like about squating in the smith machine is the way the bar goes. But for me I can go heavier in the smith machine because i dont have to stabilize the weight. Machines are great imo.
Very interesting how Jay works his legs. I noticed he does back squats on the smith machine, I gotta say though, I tend to do front squats more with the smith machine rather than back squats (I'd do some light weight for 2 sets with a barbell then move on to do 3 heavier sets on the smith machine). I like to also do a hack squat-like motion with the smith machine (legs extended farther out and let the rack do the balancing for you). Great vid good to see that Jay likes to interact with his fans
i really hate how alot of gyms will not carry an inverted leg press because people will get stupid with it and hurt themselves!! my old gym had one before it closed and let me tell u guys that thing is the best!!!!
@Maxxedout15 You know what you are right good sir, forgive my ignorance. I completely disregarded the bulk cycle which is intended to pack on size and mass and build strength. I used to do this myself, but looked past it because I'm not competing so there's no need to gain all that weight, but the strength gains were immense and muscle gains were phenomenal. Thanks for reminding me about that, that's one of the staples of Bodybuilding.
@mbelma6329 when you've reach his level of experience, his muscle fibers have adapted to the range of movement so well that they can be recruited faster than inexperienced trainees..
I think these guys get so strong compared to natural guys that the amount of weight they can lift in the big compound movements like stiff legs gets possibly to a level where it can be risky.Normally stiff legged deadlifts are the pinnacle movement for strengthening and developing the hammies due to the closed kinetic chain but there are risks for guys as powerful as Jay.
The reason why jay's legs are so big is because before he reached his 30's he use to barbell squat 600 to 700 lbs when he first started out bodybuilding (flex magazine) After reaching adequate size and also after having multiple injuries he switched to smith machine and concentrated more on slow controlled movements for the pump which I'm assuming just helped him maintain the size he already achieved. Hope this answers your question.
Trey Bailey where have you read this lol? dorian yates quit squatting quite early. ive never seen levrone squat etc. you DONT need the barbell squat to build up your legs - it's more of an 'overall' movement as it brings in stabilisers like the erectors, lower back etc. but in terms of pure isolation, the smith is far superior. dont know why it gets so much hate tbh its a very useful tool Another thing: strength =! muscle. I've seen quite a few weaklings push heavy weight in the squat to depth but they look like they dont even lift.
sorry guys, but the main reason is anabolics.. none of these bodybuilders would be so massive if they didn't use massive doses of several steroids..hgh, and insulin..
All i said was just an advice , if you want to you could train them for 5 hours straight . No more than 12 sets and 15-25 reps on each set is needed for leg workout . If you are comfortable working out 2 hours and still gain muscle as much as a person working out for 1 hour max , then continue what you are doing , my friend.
The amount of tissue burned is miniscule. A good 1.5, maybe 2-hour workout is pretty average. Plus, with the right supplements, you can not only counteract the catabolism quickly, but can even prevent it altogether. (Many people sip an amino acid shake during workouts to prevent muscle breakdown)
During the layoff they workout way less than in the off season/contest prep. I saw one video somewhere where he said he was working out like once or twice a week tops during the layoff.
I wonder if squat on smith machine is good or not. Some people say they dont squat on smith machine for if you have knowledge about the movements of muscles, the smith machine is not helpful but i dont understand their suggestion. When i squat on smith machine(because other people are using squat tracks) i feel it lets me much more focus on my squads than free style squat in which the heavier the weight is the less i focus on squads but on other mascles to life up the weight. So after squat on smith machine rather free squat i feel more tensions on my squads and legs thinking i worked out legs otherwise i didt know whether i worked out legs or other parts (for example backs). I want to say to them that hey!! Muscle professionals, look at this world class builder who is training his legs on smith machine squat.
Gaining size and muscle fullness is great but what i dont understand is why some IFBB bodybuilders gain much fat during the off season. I admire their dedication, whether your on anabolic steroids or not, you dont get this big and defined by training comfortably, you gotta bust your ass. Major props
I praise him for everything he does. Can you please explain what exactly was sub-par? His lifts look pretty good to me but you're clearly the expert here; not the 4-time Mr. O. I'll be waiting to see you on stage at the 2013 Olympia since you are the expert.
the reason why most gyms have have certain equipments is because 1. they might not have room for it 2. they dont want to buy it ebcause they thinks its not worth it for the price 3. they wont buy it becuase they think people wont really use it. if u want a good leg workout stick to squats, leg presses, leg curls, and deadlifts
the gyms they are in pay them to train there like they do tiger woods to wear nike shirts... it doesn't matter how nice your gym is, it matters how hard you work... in reality, small gyms require more creativity and give you more focus with privacy...
It's a FACT that cortisol is realised into bloodstream 45-60 minutes after intense physical activity . And cortisol kicks in when testosterone is going low , but because most of the bodybuilders use steroids , they have a ton of testosterone to "waste" . Cortisol is there just to provide maximum survivebuility for the host , at that time after 60 minutes and above , your body doesn't care if you are trying to build muscle or not . It will do anything to stay alive.
@Death929 Ive always thought it was because when you're heavier, you gain strength faster and lets them pack on more muscle, and It must be pretty hard to stay on a strict diet year-round.
What does off for 2 and a half months mean. Does it really mean not lifting a weight for that amount of time? Im sure it doesnt. Can anyone answer that one of the things ive wondered about. How long do these guys take off when they do take off?
Maybe I didn't want to put on more then 35lbs? I mean would you like to put on 50-60lbs? You would get fat, I was still pretty lean after I put on those 35lbs, alot of the weight was muscle, I can prove it by saying that my strongest achievement before putting on the weight in benchpress( everyone counts that so lets just use it) was like 125-135lbs, after it was 220-225, single rep. So some difference I would say
I was a personal trainer for 2 years, and in my experience, most people can gain your 35 pounds in just a few months. Do YOU eat poorly? In any case, I'm pretty sure he meant that he's been working out for 5 years, and gained a respectable 26 pounds of muscle (with no need to add more) - not that it took him 5 years to gain those 26 pounds. Meaning, it could have taken him 6 weeks to gain that weight, but he's maintained it for the past 5 years. Get it?
I would say that's not true. My leg workouts are 2 hours long and that's me only training and not waiting for anyone and I have improved alot. Only an average thinkin' person would say something like that.
i dont hate on people. i think juice is a supplement like protien is and it is a must in the sport. im just saying its tough on the balls for a recreational user like me. an 8 week cycle messes me up a bit. these guys do 10 month cycles. it has to cause reproductive damage in some people.. it just has to.
No body builder trains for less than 60 minutes... Arnold would do a split routine which would be two workouts in one day. one in the morning, one in the evening. 2-3 hours each so 4-6 hours a day.
Actually I have issues with my right knee. The Smitty is the only way I would attempt to squat. Don't believe anything you hear and only a quarter of what you see, and you'll be okay kid!
and just what are your leg workouts? slow pace cardio? do real intense training and u wont last an hour legs take everything out of you, after 12-14 sets i can barley walk
sure he is he just chooses not to lift as much weight. He hits 405 on the incline, ronnie hit 495 on the flat bench so he's only 2, 45's more which I guarantee Jay can do as well.

I love when Jay says 'just to get some blood in there'. SO true my man!
jay sounds like peter griffin
Wow Cutler is the real bodybuilding professor!
Total pro expert, the way he explains everything, pure reality
I know I don't know everything. But I've been a natural bodybuilder for 3 years and it's literally encompassed my life. I know what I'm talking about when it comes to this particular subject.
u know when you had a good leg workout when u cant walk the next day. love it
Thanks for the commentary, your voice is nice to hear while watching the video, keep it up!
THE best bodybuilder of all time!!
Mario Valenzuela check Kei Green Hi is the best and he do all things about gym with big heart Hi is really smart and sad becouse never win Mr olimpia but for me KEI GREEN IS THE BEST
@@adriansadowy7349 no way... Kai is not the best.
Jay The Best Right Now
definitely surprised how far he goes down on the leg press, i like cutler, although not my favorite, but i definitely respect him and also the fact that he goes as low as he does on leg press and other excercises, you see alot of other guys pretty much unlock there knees and thats it..
he would still be bigger than any natural bodybuilder without them, he is really the best of the best as of now
you are one of the best of all time....Jay ..ONE THING VERY GOOD FROM YOU YOU ALWAYS HAPPY.. GOD BLESS YOU..
great leg motivation b4 the gym!
perfect leg ... long live cutler

wow Jay is a real guru, he deserves the Sandow
I personally wouldn't want this physique, but you have to respect the dedication
Great tips from a pro
Killing it
His warm up on the leg press is my max haha
Thank you, its just silly when people argue about stuff they don't know about

"I was down to 270 when I took time"off like it's scrawny
his face shows the type of workout he had lol

Jay cutler is just one big lump of muscle
Interesting order of exercises. Squats towards the end? Worth a try.

I agree if your doing intense high cardio and you have a poor diet, then yes.
no he's a machine
During the layoff they workout way less than in the off season/contest prep. I saw one video somewhere where he said he was working out like once or twice a week tops during the layoff.

his form looks pretty good here
the mecca of bodybuilding...
jay should really go in to commentry when he retires ......great voice
I praise him for everything he does. Can you please explain what exactly was sub-par? His lifts look pretty good to me but you're clearly the expert here; not the 4-time Mr. O. I'll be waiting to see you on stage at the 2013 Olympia since you are the expert.

So that's why you are active every single week.
Notice how Jay is actually moving the sleigh lol, not like most plugs you see on the internet now.
@swaapo jelly isnt something simple like jam, its a state of mind
Like i always say... all the other days are just warm-ups for leg day.
Johny bravo xD
@TheTomFitness He use to only do free weights but using machines really let's you have slow and controlled movements.
the gyms they are in pay them to train there like they do tiger woods to wear nike shirts... it doesn't matter how nice your gym is, it matters how hard you work... in reality, small gyms require more creativity and give you more focus with privacy...
I work out 2-3 hours a day, 2x a week, and mostly heavy lifts and HIIT, and I don't take anything. :)
By intra-workout carbs and bcaa's do you mean D-bol and suspended test?
of course...he really got that squeeze...
is it necessary to squeeze when you lift?
Don’t want to concentrate on much weight as possible 8 plates on the smith 😂
Just FYI you count plates only on one side. 2 plates is 225
It's a FACT that cortisol is realised into bloodstream 45-60 minutes after intense physical activity . And cortisol kicks in when testosterone is going low , but because most of the bodybuilders use steroids , they have a ton of testosterone to "waste" .

@Death929 Ive always thought it was because when you're heavier, you gain strength faster and lets them pack on more muscle, and It must be pretty hard to stay on a strict diet year-round.
he was going to say the 5th time winner!xD thats confidence!
Kool personality!
The squeeze!
Modern bodybuilding judges guys based on how close they come to GI Joe doll proportions - ie a perfect square. To hell with the 'V' shape
@BigMcLargeHuge213 Yeah and it's good for him to shock his system since its been accustomed to free weights
What does off for 2 and a half months mean. Does it really mean not lifting a weight for that amount of time? Im sure it doesnt. Can anyone answer that one of the things ive wondered about. How long do these guys take off when they do take off?
lol it's nice to see this still pisses you off 6 months later. I know I'm right and I'm definitely not crying about it
My legs hurt watching this
why are people questioning his training hes four time mr olympia he must be doing it right
Jay reminds me of Andy from the Shawshank Redemption.
Maybe I didn't want to put on more then 35lbs? I mean would you like to put on 50-60lbs? You would get fat, I was still pretty lean after I put on those 35lbs, alot of the weight was muscle, I can prove it by saying that my strongest achievement before putting on the weight in benchpress( everyone counts that so lets just use it) was like 125-135lbs, after it was 220-225, single rep. So some difference I would say
Just a bodybuilder doing his thing, really tryna get that squeeze.
Cutler says words so fast that i, as a none english speaker, cannot understand his explanation ..haha
watch this video twice a week = leg day done
Love my smart shake :)
I was a personal trainer for 2 years, and in my experience, most people can gain your 35 pounds in just a few months. Do YOU eat poorly?
In any case, I'm pretty sure he meant that he's been working out for 5 years, and gained a respectable 26 pounds of muscle (with no need to add more) - not that it took him 5 years to gain those 26 pounds.
Meaning, it could have taken him 6 weeks to gain that weight, but he's maintained it for the past 5 years.
Get it?
thumbs up if ur watching this on leg day
getting a little blood in the knees = 16 plate leg press
Dat dere cell tech gains
I would say that's not true. My leg workouts are 2 hours long and that's me only training and not waiting for anyone and I have improved alot. Only an average thinkin' person would say something like that.
i dont hate on people. i think juice is a supplement like protien is and it is a must in the sport. im just saying its tough on the balls for a recreational user like me. an 8 week cycle messes me up a bit. these guys do 10 month cycles. it has to cause reproductive damage in some people.. it just has to.
I do like his body
HERNIA....
this makes my legs hurt
No normal person can do this much at once and actually gain from it
It's Johnny Bravo and Peter Griffin mixed together
No body builder trains for less than 60 minutes... Arnold would do a split routine which would be two workouts in one day. one in the morning, one in the evening. 2-3 hours each so 4-6 hours a day.
@RandomStevie I agree with you man, Im only 15. But your absolutely right.
Actually I have issues with my right knee. The Smitty is the only way I would attempt to squat. Don't believe anything you hear and only a quarter of what you see, and you'll be okay kid!
>squatting in the smith machine?
>shiggy
What does Jay's cycle look like? Anyone know?
Make sure to get that squeeze guys 😂
Deep squats on smith machine going parallel
shit m8 that's a lot of volume
warms up with 7 plates on each side o.O
and just what are your leg workouts? slow pace cardio?
do real intense training and u wont last an hour legs take everything out of you, after 12-14 sets i can barley walk
sure he is he just chooses not to lift as much weight. He hits 405 on the incline, ronnie hit 495 on the flat bench so he's only 2, 45's more which I guarantee Jay can do as well.
the only question remaining here is if he wants to get that squeeze.
In this case the smith machine for squats is providing more stress on the quads.
