Is that possible for all?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Cutler answered this question during an appearance on Old School Labs Podcast. He believes in today\u2019s era of bodybuilding, it is impossible to leave healthy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, not in the Open. Not in today\u2019s era. Is anyone walking out on a field or when you compete in sports, if you\u2019re a swimmer, if you\u2019re playing basketball every other day, is anyone healthy at that point?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cutler was part of one of the greatest bodybuilding rivalries in history with arguably the best bodybuilder of all time,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/generationiron.com\/ronnie-coleman-profile-stats\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ronnie Coleman<\/a>. He ended Coleman\u2019s streak of eight consecutive Olympia victories in 2006.

This includes <a href=\"https:\/\/generationiron.com\/phil-heath-profile-stats\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Phil Heath<\/a>, who put together one of the best bodybuilding careers of all-time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPhil Heath is a seven-time champion, but realistically, Phil Heath at 85% still beats almost everybody. That kid had the genes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another key factor is longevity within bodybuilding. Cutler believes that this, along with health in retirement, is hard to achieve. Dexter Jackson was able to do just that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDexter Jackson belongs on the Mt. Olympus of great bodybuilders because if you look at his career and how many winnings he had, and the length.<\/p>\n<p>Dexter won a lot. We leave him out of the conversation. Very disrespectfully. I feel like, because if you look at the epitome of Dexter Jackson, the story is just incredible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jay Cutler has stayed in incredible shape during retirement and has done so by setting and reaching goals. He admitted to not training as hard as during his Olympia days \u2014 and that is to be expected. What he does now is stay on schedule and focus on eating right and resting. That has helped keep his physique in top shape in retirement.<\/p>\n<p>For more news and updates, follow Generation Iron on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/generationiron\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/generationiron\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/generationiron\/?hl=en\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jay Cutler shared his thoughts on the overall health of competitors once they retire.
