Jay Cutler shares his workout secrets and tips on arm training.

Jay Cutler is one of the most renowned bodybuilders of his generation. Cutler is a four-time Mr. Olympia winner and he was one of the best in the world during the peak of his physique. He had finished as the runner-up to Ronnie Coleman on several occasions before winning his firth Olympia title in 2006.

Since then, he has won the prestigious competition three more times and he is also a three-time Arnold Classic winner. Although he retired from active bodybuilding competitions a long time ago, Cutler continues to be an enthusiast and often shares his workout secrets and tips with people on social media.

It was only recently that he had touched upon the sensitive topic of steroid usage in the bodybuilding industry. Jay Cutler also gave the fans a sneak peek of his arm training routine on his social media channels recently.

The champion bodybuilder is said to have 20-inch arms that round of his physique incredibly well. During the workout, Jay Cutler shared different tips while performing the exercise. He began by explaining how he usually begins with triceps but has been mixing it up.

“I wanted to do an arm video because it seems to be everyone’s favourite. Everyone asks me about arm training.

I always start with triceps first. This week, instead, I kind of reversed it a little bit and so I started with a press down movement.”

Cutler began his routine with two warmup sets and followed that up with three working sets of of Cable Triceps Pushdown. He then moved on to the rope press down before then switching to overhead dumbbell extensions in order to hit a different head of the triceps.

“The pump was really starting to flow by then. With this exercise, I did it kind of on a preacher bench and I backed up to that. Sometimes, the seats are a little higher which makes it hard to get an extension.”

He finally ended the tricep portion of the workout with three sets of dips and tricep extensions in the 10-12 rep range before switching his focus to the biceps.

Jay Cutler began his bicep training with the nautilus bicep machine and alternate dumbbell curls, going between two to three sets of 8-10 reps. His biceps workout finally ended with spider curls where he usually opts for a straight bar.
