How To Build a Massive Chest with 4x Mr Olympia Jay Cutler

- Want to know how my good friend, and bodybuilding legend, Jay Cutler built a chest big enough to win the Mr Olympia 4x's? As we trained I asked Jay all the questions you would want answered about his chest routine and training philosophy. It's not often you get to hear him go into this much detail about a specific workout so make sure you check this out if you're looking to build a bigger chest or build up strength in your bench press. This is a complete chest routine from warm-up, compound movements, isolation movements and finishing movements.

I love how humble Jay is. He acts like a regular guy that loves to train and help people build their body. But he's a M. Olympia that is worth 30 millions.
I've heard he's really humble and super good to his fans. But you can't ignore the fact he talks about himself in the third person haha
Bruce Lee i meet him once and he was the most down to earth person ever. after i got a few pics he stayed and chatted for a while unlike other people who give u the pic and just leave. jay asked if i liked the pics and just bs for a bit. good man
Bruce Lee u say right
I'm immortal my friend.
I'm sure he's getting paid for this
Jay is very humble and open , my mates met him in Vegas and he asked them to train with him
Neal Francis 👍👍☝☝☝❤❤💖💖✊✊
Such a lie
That's awesome
Once he asked me to train him and I trained him
One time I saw him at the grocery store and he let me cut him in the line
they look like they're working out in the back of a costco
It's James' warehouse I think.
😂You win.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Naughtysauce they added a camp room then I would never leave
Lmao it’s the gym inside the BPI warehouse
jay is such humble guy
Your mother
"i was never that good at bench. always a skinny lengthy kid. I did 315 for 5"...WTF
315 was after training for 20 years. I was benching just quarters on each side when I started
+James Grage - The Muscle Geek what counts as quarters? Lol
+Crayola Master 25 pound plates are quarters... a plate is considered 45's.. dimes are 10's & so on
James Morris well fuck I guess I bench quarters :(
i read this comment in the beginning of the video so i thought u were personally saying it lol. i was like 315 for 5 is good!!
5:45 “No yelling in the gym.”
*Ronnie Coleman has enter the gym*
“What was that, BAYBAAAAAY!? WOOO!”
That guy must be a Planet Fitness member..
LIGHT WEIGHT!
If you look like half of Ronnie I’d not say shi if you are yelling in the gym
Haha. Watching Ronnie’s older vids (when he was younger) and he somehow sounds like an old man
Pleasure seeing you here again, mr bear adjacent 😂
What I learned from this video is that Jay is one cool dude.
7:12 Jay was definitely just checking himself out instead of spotting 😂
Thought dude in the hoodie was gonna be small. I was wrong
Jay's reps are so incredibly deliberate. Really great vid, here. Jay is my favorite Mr. Olympia.
This is the comment I was looking for. His reps are so intentional. Love to see it.
I see why he is your favorite.
1:30 - 1:45 Is the MOST IMPORTANT line in building muscle. I took these 15 seconds from Jay years ago and it has help me with my gain tremendously. Before, I was just throwing weight around and not "really" focusing until I started listening and understanding what Jay means right here.
You got this bro, get some!
Correct
yeah you wont get a proper pump if you dont work the contraction, you will get a heart pump maybe.
When you start getting a bad ass pump on your second set you know you are becoming one (1).
You asked some good questions and that isn't done enough with a lot of these guys that film videos like this. They just film the workout and that's it.
+John Vu dated questions. Stuff people should know by now
Thanks John. Appreciate it brother!
James Grage - The Muscle Geek Sure thing dude. Don't stop what you're doing.
Too bad the ROIDERS can't lift weights for size and strength!
ROIDERS are FAKES!
Stay natural buddy!
No slamming weights, no yelling. Love it! Rules to live by.
only if you are on way to mr olypmia
Said no gym rat, ever.
Yeah but half repping, nuh uh.
Too bad the ROIDERS can't lift weights for size and strength!
ROIDERS are FAKES!
Stay natural buddy!
Jay is a fucking decent guy. Bodybuildings best ambassador of our time.
that was the best jay cutler workout ive seen in 15 years
What a great teacher. I appreciate how Jay takes the time to explain things and engage in a conversation. Doesn’t act like a know it all (even though he does know it all).
One thing I learnt from this that improved my workout was that I did not have to do full movements but work only in the feel range. In other words no need to go up to lock position. This has greatly improved my work out. Th a is Cutler.
At 65, I appreciate the no bullshit approach and transparency Jay provides in his vids, thank you my brother.
Did you like BS when you were Younger and at 65 you changed? lol
Jay is not only a great bodybuilder, a person that is giving back his knowledge thru his videos. I started out 65 years ago with only magazines to train by, also Jay treats people with kindness and respect when he meets them for the first time. Jay Cutler you can tell he likes people and will always be a great Mr. Olympia.
I fucking love Jay, he's this beast of a man who can snap anyone else like a twig yet he's so respectful, helpful, and down to earth. I'm amazed every time I see something of him because he ALWAYS has this great demeanor about him.
Jays a living legend!! So humble and normal there's nothing cocky or arrogant about him he's a genuine down to earth guy
jay looking great at this size!!
i do really like jay on how he talk about things, it is so plain, easy to understand and straight to the point. the 4x Mr.O is simply humble.
Jay shows in this video what a cool and humble guy he is.
its a shame phil heath cant be like jay.
chris lythall
It's a shame you can't be like Phil Heath.
Right chris? Like it would be 100times Better if Phil was white like jay
Oggy Oggy he is like Phil. Neither won the Olympia last year
Bob Dole 😂Nice one. "BAHB DOLLLE!!!"
@@eazy__8991 He wasn't talking about race, he was talking about attitude.
Haven’t watched/listened much to Jay Cutler before. He seems awesome and it’s great to hear new things after lifting for 15ish years. Great explanations and enjoyable to watch.
Of course, nothing is written in stone. Those tips are what work for me. Everyone is different.
9:38 spitting some truth over there!
Jay is the best man ! Cant get enough of watching his videos, very spontaneous, humble and honnest
And gentle.
The ONLY time i bought bodybuilding magazines was when Jay was on the cover! My inspiration through the years and STILL to this day!
living the dream having a work out with Mr. Cutler
I like how Jay squeezes himself in that first machine. Both guys are amazing.
At the top of any sport, they talk about the power of visualization.
LOL to try to explain why they're freakishly strong compared to natural people. They also talk of #MarginalGains - when really the difference is 99% drug abuse.
Yeah I think visualization is a key to squeezing out that extra percentage and getting the best performance you can, not just in weight lifting but other athletic hobbies.
Great video with great athletes. Thanks a lot for it and for asking Jay very specific questions!
Very humble guy
Jay Cutler is such a great champion and a good person as well. Thank you for the video.
Fantastic video.
eso baby
I watched hours of Jays training videos and I learned a lot
Great to see Jay Cutler and the tips. Thanks.
I cant believe how much Jay's legacy and knowledge is helpful
Amazing video , listened to whole discussions and loved it
Thanks brother! Glad you liked it
+James Grage - The Muscle Geek name of song at first seconds?
+James Grage - The Muscle Geek great video man !
iii
Mr. Olympia sounds like Peter Griffin
i bet peter's smarter
spooky crape watching family guy rn😂😂🤣
spooky crape from the same area,
spooky crape he's my fav character from fam guy😂😂
This profile pic is fucking mine
5 years later.. This Q&A is one of the best I’ve heard! Thanks gentlemen
Awesome video, James. Thanks for putting this together!
Jay is an awesome guy looks very approachable and has tons of knowledge 💪🏻
Man Jay you’ve gotten big since I saw you last playing for the bears.
Very nice video. Nice questions asked. Both focused on being as informative as possible.
Love the video, couldn't ask for better tips video on chest, j is like the business bodybuilder. He seems genuine and still watching
15:30 onwards is possibly the single greatest advice that demystifies misconceptions about how to build muscle.
Amazona vídeo !! Stopped In the middle and looked Bob Paris, amazing phisyque
I love you called him out on the 3rd person. It was classic and he never skipped a beat and said yea and moved on, ha.
It's awesome to hear the greats that I looked up to when I was younger reading content that they put out, watching videos that they posted, hell even reading and following the workout plans that were put in magazines such as muscle and fitness. There is something humbling and even motivating that they are just as normal as everyone else. Of course work ethic and dedication can never be measured.
When it comes to bodybuilding I believe one of the greatest secrets that helps one grow is study yourself, analyze you and keep a record of what you experience. Nobody knows you like you know you. I’m 53 And I can’t build like I used to in my Navy days. But I’m still at it and the pump never lies.
Love your info Jay ! Great videos
I am watching this April 17 almost 1 year and 1 month after you posted this video. But I have to say man big respect I found your channel yesterday but I learn more from you already. Thanks man.
this is one of your best video. keep bring this type of content. thanks for all the effort you pit in to this videos.
Brilliant workout with Jay. learnt alot thanks James.
For the people that think roids alone built Jay, you are sadly mistaken. He was gifted long before roids and has always been for lack of a better term a "Cornfed type of guy" I learned a lot from Jay long before CZcams. Thanks again for the video James You're giving lifrers knowledge that took years of studying for me to gain. Your channel will change some lives for sure.
J Mar BODY Finally someone who understands and isnt a keyboard warrior.
The drugs are essential and can't be ignored though. Obviously this isn't saying the roids alone have done anything, but it would be better to be open and honest about it rather than being a "dirty secret".
J Mar BODY if you want what others don't have, you have to do what others are not willing to do
J Mar BODY he doesn't look as juiced as others too
J Mar BODY cutler wouldn't look anything like that without roids. Body fat would be higher, way smaller muscles aswell.he just could not have not keep that conditioning plain and simple
Jay is so laid back man! His energy is like an every day buddy you would hang with! Cool guy!
Jay is such a generous guy thanks to bring him in
Great video...subbed...Jay's the best!
Great video!!
+Greg Flynn - thanks Greg!
A living legend! Thanks a lot.
Jay Cutler is so awesome. What a great professional.
Anyone catch him call out Jay cutler on the 3rd person shit lol know my favorite video
Already got my bench workout done today....this is making me want to go do a second one.
Same
Hey man, just wondering if you’re still doing that bench workout?
Jay’s demeanor reminds me of John Meadows. Humble, confident and knowledgeable. Both, wonderful teachers and human beings.
Jay is such a icon!!! He loves it, it's in his blood. Love ya Jay, Mr. O!!
Ya man, what a cool dude! Be nice to have him to learn from. Just watching this in fact.
Just this past week I switched to doing arms on their own day. So 5 days instead of 4 I like his split 3 on 1 off 2 in 1 off that’s great. But had I not watched this I wouldn’t have been sure I was doing the right thing. Well I guess it depends, we will see in a few months of the results but I know it will be much better. After chest or shoulders who wants to do no’s or tri’s.
Jay is 100% Correct, ALWAYS start with the weaker parts. This is why 99% of people Fail at getting good symmetry! Why would you walk in the gym and Hit your chest or arms first, if that's already a strong body part??? Those parts are going to perform 75% on a bad day anyways!!! You hit the WEAK parts first, while you got the energy and calories....Like I said, most people Fail, because their Training Logic makes Zero sense, and they usually DONT consume enough calories to fuel their workout....they are running off adrenaline(bad thing), which causes your body to EAT the very muscle mass you're trying to build!(called going catabolic).
Yeah but I need to get my WO going with an easy win LOL.... If I am doing any compound movements, I must do them first! for me...
And yeah I see some of these guys in the gym that ain't gained an ounce in a year, they don't F*#k'n eat nothin'.... I know when it comes to food, dat chit cost mula $$$.
Good point
Through the years I never really noticed Jay or paid him any attention, after watching his videos and hearing his views and personality, I rate him in my top 5 athletes, legend
first video of yours I've watched! good interview qiestions for your viewers!! informative...great vid!! thanks to you as well Jay Cutler!!! very helpful and humble
Damn everytime I think of Jay cutler I think of the QB Jay Cutler.
16:36 I take everything 15 minutes at a time, great philosophy to live life!
Jay Cutler, the man is a true champion and a All round cool guy
Great video with a great champ. Always presented himself well and down to earth. Hopefully one day I’d like to meet the great Jay 💪🏻💪🏻
Great guy but the edits are awful, i dont get why they change the camera and skip parts of his workout
How to build a massive chest with 4x Mr. Olympia Peter Griffin
See jay has doesn't need to have tats everywhere perfect
He has have doesnt wasnt hasnt didnt wouldnt couldnt havent need to have tats right?
@@Gekke_Gerrit94 Hahaha im dead🤣🤣
You are aware, however, that he's made his body freakishly unnatural from steroid abuse though?
I love jay cutler. Best humble man.
love this video.. just relating to jays training and what he feels and how he does it.
I've seen plenty videos of Jay grunting loudly and yelling during sets, even in an empty gym training at night so he wasn't doing it for attention. If you're training hard and fast, and the muscles are on fire with pain, you're going to make noise even if you're trying your best to be quiet. Gyms should be filled with that sound....clanging weights and people spontaneously crying out from the pain.
I don't mind people making noise if they're doing a heavy set on squats on deadlifts, or shooting for a PR. But I can't stand the fuck-stains who yell and scream doing a set of fucking bicep curls or tricep pushdowns or something like that. Those kind of douche-bags are just looking for attention, newsflash.... curls aren't a hard exercise to do.
The worst ones are the ones who smash heavy dumbbells on the floor after finishing a set. Ffs you could accidentally break someone else's foot doing that.
Phil Health I mean if youre pressing 80 pound dumbells to failure. Only a dumbass would try to place them down carefully. You could injure youre arms easily doing that. Safest thing to do is turn your arms a bit whilst lowering them a bit and let tgem fall the rest of the way to tge ground.
Not at planet fitness
Idc I grunt on triceps that burns like hell
Chest is my biggest lagging muscle group my arms just always take over 😫😞
The best chest contractions come when the chest is the highest point on the body. Ex) on bench you can retract and flatten your shoulder blades on the bench which will make your chest stick out. On flies its the same thing, stick your chest out and it will flex.
Yes, keep your chest up and out when lifting and your mind will connect with your chest muscles. You aren’t lifting too heavy are you?
I had a lot of trouble with getting my chest to do the movements and just recently think I've started to get it after 9 months or so of working out. My shoulders were doing so much of it. That chest press machine Jay used first? I'd get done with a set and my front delts would be burning, not my chest.
I have that damn upper cross syndrome from years of slouching, and while I've heard "pull your shoulders down and back" or "put your shoulder blades in your back pocket" it just didn't mean much to me.
It wasn't until I was recommended Chris Jones' (Pump chasers) video on retracting scapula that it clicked: shrug up, pull shoulders back, bring shoulders down.
I also personally have a habit of always shrugging my shoulders up so I have to be constantly aware of that working out. You can't contract your chest for shit if your shoulders are raised. I was even doing it during pushups.
@@Atypical82 And yeah, if you're having problems getting the muscle to do the movement, I think it's always best to kick the weight back, go LIGHT, and do the movement slowly with good form, to make sure you're doing it right.
I always thought the same thing. I always do workouts that I know it's good for my body, I know what I need
Jay, I love most videos on Bodybuilding, through all the videos I watched, they all keeps me focused 24 /7 .Jay I am 69 years old now, I am hoping and praying to come to Venice LA when I turn 70 or 71 to train my whole body for one week, weight training always been my greatest love and passion, hopefully when I come to Venice, others will see the passion for weight lifting and bodybuilding.
Watched the whole video; love to hear the outlook of several BBs. I disagree with Jay's "twice a week is bogus" comment. Of course you can have fine results with once a week. But I think twice a week is more optimal.
Another consideration when comparing once a week to twice a week: How many times have you had to miss one workout during the week? If you train 5 days a week and can't make it on thurs or something? Once a week means you haven't hit that muscle in 2 weeks cause you skipped a 7 day cycle. But on twice a week, you still hit that muscle once that week.
Generally, I think you would just do whatever workout you missed on one of your scheduled off days. Not too tough of a fix with the schedule he described, 3 on, one off, 2 on, one off. He definitely found a way to make it work 👍
I haven't seen good results with 1x per week. I always preferred alternating heavy days and light days, for two sessions a week. I always work triceps on chest day, along with front Delts. Biceps with back, heavy and then light. I'm not Mr. Olympia, but I know my preference. Also, only do 12-14 sets per muscle group.
if jay was faster imagine him as a runningback
Really like Jays personality, true winner
Awesome video guys! THANK YOU for posting this.
Can you please post the link for the background music.
Generic Loud Hip Hop music used in Gym Videos
Please soundtrack of this film
It's "EK-go time"
nice to hear legends sharing the wisdom !
It's nice to have a guy like Jay take the time to teach us. If you notice ,he doesn't blow the f bomb every fourth word. This guy has class.
"Tuck the chin"... Man that's an awesome tip!
Joris Weima - tucking the chin does nothing for your workout
@@VeinyDickTracy not true. If it helps you isolate the muscle and get contractions then it helped.
@@dreamisolympia88 Jay was only doing that to literally feel his chest and that it was contracting. Like they said in the video, he does it the same reason as you'd put your hands on your buddy's chest to make sure it's contracting.
Lol to all the guys that says that the bar has to touch your chest...
Ken Huynh true that the bar does not have to touch your chest
The bar actually shouldn't touch your chest. When i tore my rotator cuff the doctor told me that when your elbow drops below 90 degrees from the shoulder it is primarily tendons working and with heavy weights they can become overloaded. If your form is clean without any momentum from the body the tendons are under even more stress in this position. But from 90 degrees onwards its the shoulder and chest muscles doing the work.
Powerlifters are the ones that do that.
The bar has to touch your chest, only not Jay Cutler's chest.
No, for hypertrophy it doesn't. But for strength it does. Especially if you want to compete. It's literally a rule of all powerlifting federations.
Awesome video brah.Jay is such a beast
Jay cutler !! great guy, phenomenal athlete
Why does it look like a Costco?

Really liked your question on his balance of research and real science vs bro science and sort of second hand knowledge.
Cutler seems like such a cool and humble champ.
