Well Folks its time for a review of Jays new dvd.
Lets do a recap
In Jays first, video we seem him prepare the 1999 Mr. Olympia. Although impressive Jay is not nearly as big or ripped as we see him now.
In Jays second video we see him in "rest and recover mode" about 4-5 weeks after the 2003 Arnold Classic.
In his lates dvd we see him 3 weeks to the Arnold classic 2004. At first I was concerned about this because in this contest Jay showed up a little flat. I was worried that in the dvd he would be somewhat smaller then I expected.
WRONG!
At 3 weeks out jay was weighing 265-270. The dvd starts out with an incredibly intense leg workout.
First up is smith machine squats. After a light warm up jay performs and endless set with 315, before bumping it up to a set with 365. Not too impressive in the wieght catagory, but the intensity is more then enough to rival Yates, and borders on Platz! Not to mention that the detail in Jays thighs are utterly incredible! SPlits and deep straitions upon striations!!!
Oh did I mention his last set with 365 is done in drop set fashion (SQUATS IN DROP SET FASHION!)
We then see a lot of other exercises for legs, Leg press preformed extremely deep with about 1,000 lbs, Leg extension showing so much detail it boggles the mind! Walking lunges and more!
After his workout is through he barely has enough in him to hit a few poses. His thighs are so thick and pumped they really look inhuman!
Two things jay appears to be missing,
Skin and fat!!
Then we see jay at the Ironman Expo and we what appears to be fan after fan come up and get there pic taken with jay, which jay doesn't seem to mind doing. But does comment that it is nothing compared to what he will go through at the Anrold.
Then comes a chest routine.
Dumbell flys, followed by dumbell presses and incline smith machine presses, and then cable cross overs. Again jay pushes the boundries of intensity. While his muscles push against his skin as if they are ready to blow!
his next dvd shows arms and delts, and then a back workout, but its all filmed much closer to the Arnold, more like one week out. He has dropped in weight but he does look depleted however he is totally ripped.
We seem get another massage, and we seem guest pose again, but since its after the Arnold its obvious that his weight has rebounded!.
Highlights of the dvd is jays hour long cardio session at the gym at 2:00 am in the morning! You heard me right 2:00 am in the morning.
Jays dedication comes through in this dvd more so then any other dvd I've witnessed.
Also Jays condition at 3 weeks out is far better then that of his 2001 Olympia form. I've seen Jay on video every year, I've seen the 2001 O and 2002 Arnold, and let me say Jays condition 3 weeks out from the Arnold is the best combination of size and detail he has ever had. He basically was ready at 3 weeks out.
This video was inspiring because Jay works so damn hard. Intense Intense Intense, did I mention intense workouts!!!! Not mention ultra dedication when it comes to cardio (try 2.5-3 hours a day!!!!)
Lets talk about dietary discipline!!!!
This dvd is also sprinkled with diet advice as we see Jay eat Turkey and brown rice at almost every meal.
Awesome conditioning.
I have a lot of dvd's and let me tell you know one has ever shown this level of conditioning in a dvd before, not Ronnie, not Dexter, Not Cormier, not anyone!!!!
This dvd gets an easy 5 out of 5
