In December 2022, the IFBB pro secured his fourth consecutive Classic Physique Olympia title, sparking discussions among bodybuilding enthusiasts about his future. Even though the bodybuilder had previously hinted at his desire to expand his Olympia dynasty, doubts arose due to injuries such as a torn right biceps, consequently causing uncertainty about his next move.

In the Instagram post, Chris Bumstead shared a photo of himself, accompanied by the caption “about to get hyuge,” sparking curiosity and speculation among his ardent fans. The term “hyuge” seemingly deviates from the 28-year-old athlete’s usual non-bulky appearance, leaving followers wondering if he plans to bulk up for the upcoming Olympia.

Recognizing the perks of the Classic Physique category, Bumstead openly expressed his personal disapproval of the rigorous eating plan needed to facilitate muscle development. Even though he already consumes over 4,000 calories during his early off-season, he jokingly exclaimed, “Oh man, f***, I gotta eat again?” On the other hand, he recognizes the advantages of initiating the regimen earlier and gradually easing into his preparation, aiming to achieve his all-time best condition.
