Chris Bumstead is already a sensation after winning his 5th Mr. Olympia in 2023. He took the bodybuilding [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/bodybuilding/https:/www.essentiallysports.com/category/bodybuilding/https:/www.essentiallysports.com/category/bodybuilding/] world by storm after achieving the 5th title in a row even with a shoulder injury just days before the competition. CBum is not just a happy man because of his wins, but also because he is going to become a father! He recently revealed that Baby Bum is on the way in 2024 and he and his partner, Courtney King are elated. The fans were also surprised and expressed their happiness at the news. Now the father-to-be is basking in excitement and always sharing something or the other about childcare or even his memories of his childhood. The recent post related to this was hilarious, with him talking about a new baby tool. CHRIS BUMSTEAD RECOMMENDS A CHILDCARE PRODUCT The new Instagram story [https://instagram.com/stories/cbum/3250005864542723936?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igshid=NGEwZGU0MjU5Mw==] that Bumstead uploaded is going to make people laugh out loud. The father-to-be is surely humorous and shared a funny video that many must already be familiar with. The story showed a makeshift automatic machine that can help feed babies from their bottles. The video showed a baby doll on a couch, with a robot hand beside it. The hand rotated towards the baby and extended the bottle, but instead of showcasing how it feeds babies, the video showed the machine smacking the baby off the couch. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/cbum_1700381640459.jpeg] Bumstead captioned the story writing, “We need this @courtneyking.” Bumstead is already anticipating the exhausting and sleepless nights when the little one arrives but he also seems to be very excited for the new member in the family. CBum is definitely enjoying the journey towards becoming a dad with Courtney. Earlier, the 28-year-old posted a wholesome video of him in the kitchen reminiscing about his inner child while baking. BUMSTEAD’S BAKING SESSION The bodybuilding champion shared [https://www.essentiallysports.com/bodybuilding-news-soon-to-be-father-chris-bumstead-unravels-his-inner-child-in-the-kitchen-who-else-enjoyed-licking/] a video of him licking cookie dough out of an empty bowl, maybe a sign that he is already indulging in baking and cooking as Courtney is set to give birth. CBum’s inner child was unleashed in the kitchen all thanks to Baby Bum.

They are yet to tie the knot but he already considers her his wife. What do you think about this wholesome couple? Let us know in the comments below.

I am Tanushree Bhowmick. I have always loved running and sprinting since I was a
child and I often took pride in being unbeaten at sporting events in school. The
love I had for sport continued to follow me into adulthood. I still nurture a
love for fitness and anything related to Gymnastics, because these sports have
always intrigued me and inspired me in my professional writing career and
lifestyle. I am a Bodybuilding writer at EssentiallySports and hold a Master?s
Degree in English Literature. Some of my favorite athletes are Simone Biles and
Arnold Schwarzenegger. Many of my 700-plus articles for the bodybuilding
division are about the 7x Mr. Olympia winner. For my writing, I often track the
Terminator icon?s fitness newsletter and delve into the advice that Arnie
provides for his ?village? Given my passion for fitness and bodybuilding, I
aspire to write about and interview icons from the field.

Out of all the competitions in the world, bodybuilding stays apart as a unique one. Athletes train for years to perfect their bodies and develop muscular mass. Likewise, athletes who train for competitions are understood as bodybuilders. In professional competitions like the Mr. Olympia event, bodybuilders stand on the stage, posing for various parts of their bodies. Judges rank them based on their symmetry, muscularity, size, conditioning, posing, and stage presentation. There are various competitions in bodybuilding but the Mr. Olympia contest stands apart from the rest.

<h2>History of bodybuilding</h2>
Old Greeks became the inspiration for people to start bodybuilding. After that, modern competitions came up from various theatrical acts and other circus acts. They held the first <a href="https://www.britannica.com/sports/bodybuilding" target="_blank" rel="noopener">contest</a> in 1903 in New York. The winner of the competition was Al Treloar and dubbed "The Most Perfectly Developed Man in the World." Significantly, organizers saw potential in that and the start of the Mr. America contest showcased some of the best talents. The rise of various bodybuilders across the globe saw the Mr. Universe event come into place and it became the main event for over 25 years. But, the late 1970s saw Joe Weider come up with a grand plan and create the Mr. Olympia contest.

<h2>Mr. Olympia contest</h2>
The contest that captured the minds of fans was the Mr. Olympia contest under the International Federation of Bodybuilding &amp; Fitness. Weider helps these bodybuilders to earn money by competing in events. They held the first competition on September 18, 1965, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, New York City. Larry Scott won the first two titles. Moreover, the bodybuilders with the highest number of titles are Lee Haney and Ronnie Coleman. In the meantime, to make their entry into the market, the famous documentary, Pumping Iron, saw the buildup to the 1975 Mr. Olympia contest. It helped athletes like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lou Ferrigno, and Franco Columbu.
<h2>Famous bodybuilders</h2>
There are several bodybuilders to grace the grand stage. But some bodybuilders achieved greatness with their astonishing bodies.
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Arnold Schwarzenegger:?</strong></li>
</ul>
The Austrian bodybuilder is one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time. The Austrian Oak is a seven-time bodybuilding champion and became an influential personality in the business. He then transitioned himself to various acting roles, became an investor, and was elected as the Governor of California. Some of his movies like Terminator 2, Commando, Twins, and Conan the Barbarian are some of his classics.
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Ronnie Coleman:</strong></li>
</ul>
Dubbed to be the greatest bodybuilder of all time, Ronnie Coleman put his life and soul into the sport. He is an eight-time Mr. Olympia winner and became the most dominant bodybuilder in the business. Netflix released a documentary featuring his life in the bodybuilding industry. His size and conditioning stood apart from everyone else. A true champion who wore his heart on his sleeve.

<ul>
 	<li><strong>Lee Haney:</strong></li>
</ul>
Like Coleman, Lee Haney became an eight-time Mr. Olympia champion. He dedicated his body to the sport and was one of the most exciting bodybuilders on stage. Haney had a humongous waist size of 32.5 inches. Therefore, Haney deserves a special mention for his performances.
