I wish we'd get pros training over here at our gyms in NZ

I can't imagine anything cooler than having Jay walking in and training in the same gym as me.

Jay was the first Mr. Olympia to lose and come back and win it again. The other former Mr. Olympia winners who lost and came back to try and win it again were Sergio Oliva (lost to Arnold in '70), Frank Zane (lost to Arnold in '80), Samir Bannout (lost to Lee Haney in '84) and Ronnie Coleman (lost to Cutler in '06). All of these Mr. Olympia winners tried to come back and win again but were unsuccessful.

Mines been playing the gay ass Rnb/pop station lately and I don't understand why since 99% of the members are men and the women's only section is upstairs anyway and thats where most of if not all the chicks go.

great video, that gym looks like my gym but i live in the uk lol, hardcore gyms are a dying breed in the uk so its good to see there still going strong in the usa, and as allways jay looks huge.....

No, not really. Sergio was about 28 when he lost to Arnold in 1970 and he tried to get the title back in 1972 at age 30. Zane was 38 when he lost to Arnold in 1980 and he was 41 when he competed in his last Olympia. Samir was only 28 when he lost to Lee Haney in 1984. Jay was 36 this year when he won the title back. However, as I said, he was the only former Mr. Olympia to come back and win the title again after losing it.

If you listen close around the 6:00 minute mark you can hear Jay telling the guy taping not to edit Mel out of the final video. I think it's cool he doesn't need all the spotlight on him.
