Chris Bumstead has been trending in the sport of bodybuilding ever since he first joined the industry. As a 21-year-old, CBum, as he’s fondly called, won the IFBB Pro card and became a professional bodybuilder. Not only that, in his very first two Mr. Olympia appearances, Bumstead was ranked second, stunning the whole industry with his superiority in sculpting his own body.

Since 2019, CBum has been consistently winning the title of Mr. Olympia in Classic Physique. Right before his 7th year of participation and 5th title win, Bumstead shared his health updates on his social media highlighting a phase of physical and mental struggles. Despite everything, he still managed to attain the best version of himself. And although it was right before the contest, he still won the contest.

Greg Doucette’s idea of Chris Bumstead’s career possibilities

In his latest YouTube video, IFBB Pro coach, Greg Doucette made an entire video decoding the probabilities of Chris Bumstead’s authenticity when it comes to his claim of being natty. However, the coach mainly focused on the fact if CBum chooses to take part in the Open’s division, where would he be standing? He stated in the video, “Chris already is getting hurt… he states he’s not pushing all those supplements. And so if he had a goal to try open-class bodybuilding and put on 20 lbs of muscle, he would get stronger, increase his risk of injury.”

Thus insinuating that CBum does not take many performance-enhancing drugs because of his repeated injury, Greg Doucette does clear up how his present physique has been solely genetic and his own built. Bumstead’s dedication and adherence to keeping his body within a limit of body fat does not let him get big in the offseasons. On the other hand, Greg also pointed out that although fans want to see Chris Bumstead in the open, it might be too selfish for them to expect Bumstead to go through such concerns and participate in the Open’s division.

However, these are all speculations at best. After someone asked CBum whether or not he would want to participate in the Open, the 29-year-old bodybuilder simply denied all such notions.

Chris Bumstead’s opinion about division change

In an interview right before the commencement of this season’s Mr. Olympia, CBum was asked about his insights about a division change. The interviewer, Bob Cicherillo pointed out how Shawn Ray considered Bumstead to be in the wrong division. He also clarified the potential CBum is capable of attaining through his physique which seems suited for the biggest Olympia division. In reply to such comments, Chris Bumstead simply stated, ?I?m right where I belong.”

The bodybuilding world always wants to see their favorite contestants at the very top. In the process, they forget that their expectations might not be the best option for the bodybuilder himself. Chris Bumstead has always impressed his fans and continues to do so. However, his own choice and resoluteness about sticking to the Classic Physique division must be respected.
