Moreover, a few days ago he shocked the bodybuilding fraternity by announcing his own retirement plans. Nevertheless, the defending champion is certain to win this year by planning a strict workout regimen, efficient nutrition and diet plan, and effective supplementation for his contest preparation.

Hence, he penned,
“So proud and excited for you to be starting the next chapter of your life. Every bodybuilder knows as beautiful as competing can be, it really does consume so much of your existence.” He also added, “But aside from external achievements I’ve seen you dedicate 110% effort to this goal for 15 years, become a better man along the way, and earn the right to hang it up with your head held high.” Furthermore, CBum goes through extensive workouts and training for the preparation of 2023 Mr. Olympia.Bumstead Olympia 2023 training
