Jay Cutler Workout Routine
The important thing is that each training session has to bring intensity. Jay is a big believer in bringing the burn to a maximum on each set, which is very obvious in his workout routine.

Between massive action at the gym and making many different unflavored protein powders as part of your daily meal plan, this workout routine and diet program are recipes for success.

The Jay Cutler Diet Plan
Jay Cutler’s diet is another area that I researched with great interest. As indicated by my tests with various diet plans, I've found that a strategy similar to Jay Cutler's, is highly effective for sustained energy and muscle growth.
The one thing we noted in his diet is that rather than dive into a few very large meals to get about 5,000 calories per day, he would spread things ot over nine meals.
