The Canadian bodybuilder, who brought Chris Bumstead into the realm of bodybuilding, seems to be dealing with retirement just right after he left the arena in September. Apart from coach the five-time classic physique champion for years, he is also CBum’s brother-in-law, who rose to fame by competing in an open category of the competition. 

Valliere always maintained his reputation as a bigger and more muscular bodybuilder than Bumstead. However, things have turned out to be different after he started to lose his gains post-retirement. Recently, he posted a picture on his official Instagram account, below which Bumstead and his sister teamed up and made a mockery of him for his recent decision.

Chris Bumstead teases Valliere’s current physique

Posting  a photo of himself flexing his current physique, Valliere wrote what his wife thought about how he looked. “My wife thinks I’m a wh*re,”  he penned. As one scrolled down the comments, one could see that Mr Olympia CBum had also commented on the post. Reveling at the fact that he was now bigger than Valliere, Bumstead wrote, “First time in 10+ years of knowing you I am finally bigger PS pic is kinda sus.”

While Cbum competes in the classic division, Valliere competed in the open category, which is why he was always considered bigger than Cbum. So now that he is retired and continuously downsizing to get back into track and field, CBum says he is finally the bigger one out of the two. 

Valliere talked about the adversities he endured throughout his career 

Valliere seemed regretful for not finding joy and happiness in the little things in life. To some extent, his disciplined routine took away his chance to be happy. In one of his recent interviews, he confessed that because of his goal, he could not embrace fun in life. He said, “There’s other people that want to go do fun stuff like you know at the at the time you don’t miss it you don’t be like I wish I was doing that because you have a goal right but then when you’re on the other side of it you’re like f*ck I wish I had enjoyed those moments more and like you know been more present even in the bodybuilding side of it so now that I’m on the other side I’m making sure to like really soak in these f*ck*ng moments” you know.”

But according to him, while on the path to fulfill these goals, he missed out on enjoying some of the things that mattered. However, retirement and venturing into track and field seem to have done a lot of good to him. Do you think so too? Let us know in the comments.
