This is an interesting movie. To be based on a bodybuilder, there is less emphasis on the bodybuilding, and more on the life of. There is not much said on diet and training (not a bad thing, just stating). You get to see Jay live his life, guest posing, working booths, opening stores, and promoting the sport. I personally wish there would have been more on his training and diet, but I am sure that can be found in some of his other movies (this is the only one i own). This movie is worth the buy though, especially since it is Jays first year as mr olympia.

I'm a big Ronnie Coleman fan, and loved his Ronnie Coleman: The Unbelievable! (Bodybuilding) DVD. This Jay Cutler DVD was much longer, and really never became boring to watch. I watched all 7 hours plus in two sittings. The DVD highlighted Jay's workouts. There were so many workouts and locations. He worked out on Venice Beach on the beach, Gold's Gym on Venice Beach, at different gyms in Vegas, his home etc. His life as a professional bodybuilder and Mr. Olympia was also highlighted. Jay also gave great tips on what to eat. I immediately ordered Food For Life Ezekiel 4:9 Organic Sprouted Grain Cereal, Almond, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) after he touted the stuff, and pretty much ate it every day, which was also shown. This DVD is very interesting, and I'm glad I purchased it.

Of all Jay Cutlers DVD's this is my favorite (One Step Closer DVD is a close second). You'll see Jay's complete workout routine for every bodypart (including back training at Muscle Beach), guest poses, neuromuscular therapy, his meals, the opening of his MaxMuscle store, his speach at the fit expo, plus a Cribs style extra where Jay takes you on a tour of his house. Look for a lot of familar faces too like Lou Ferrigno, WWF TripleH, and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Jay Cutler: From Jay to Z has everything you would want in a bodybuilding dvd....complete workouts (Jay even gives some tips), what he eats on a daily basis, and the lifestyle part of being Mr. Olympia. It's a 2 disc set 6hrs 43min plus 35min Cribs & Extras.

When I first heard about this DVD it was on how much of Jay Cutler lifestyle and behind the scenes footage there is and I wasn't sure if I would be interested. I am so happy I went ahead and ordered this DVD it has everything trainings at Gold's Venice and Jay's hometown Las Vegas. It has Jay's lifestyle sections and oh what a life, but Jay is also talking about his views on things. Then more sections on Jay at other events guest posing and working out on Muscle Beach Venice. One section of Jay at one of his neuromuscular therapy sessions. As the title says this is Jay from J to Z, it has everything and lots of it. So glad I purchased it.

THIS DVD WAS NEW STILL IN PACKAGE..THE SELLER WAS QUICK ON DELIVERY... THIS IS A CHRISTMAS GIFT SO IT HAS NOT BEEN OPENED TO WATCH PICTURE YET..

Dude... what more needs to be said than it is Jay Cutler! This was a great series. I watched some reviews and clips and was sold. It sounded like it is one of his better series. I really enjoy getting to see his home life and his meals and the more human side of Jay because it gave me a sense of camaraderie with him because I love lifting weights. Although I have learned one of his bad habits from watching the dvd and that is throwing the weights. I was working out in Golds and threw the 130lb dumbbells down and one of the 10lb plates came flying off and then rolled away. Funny because I was standing right in front of the sign that says not to drop the weights. I shrugged it off and blame the gym for old equipment and tucked it away. Back to the disks though. They are impressive workouts not to short and not so long that I can't watch one before a workout to get myself jazzed up and mentally in the game.

This is a must have if you like Jay Cutler and for anyone really wanting a closer look at a professional not just in bodybuilding but in everything the man does. Other than obvious use of steroids he is a mentor for success, and has the same kind of drive that Arnold did.
