After winning his fifth Mr. Olympia title, the Classic Physique God Chris Bumstead is focusing on other facets of training. Despite the rigorous weight training and diet rituals for 2023 Mr. Olympia, CBum bread and butter is hitting the gym. However, this time to improve his mobility. 

CBum always focused on holistic bodybuilding techniques to maximize results without compromising his health. The Classic Physique champion recently joined hands with a renowned coach, Vernon Griffith, to improve his mobility.

The soon-to-be dad, CBum, was recently involved in a hip mobility workout session with Vernon Griffith by performing wall sit-ups. The wall creates tension in the torso as CBum rotates one of his lower limbs to improve his hip mobility.
