Chris Bumstead, the reigning champ in Classic Physique, has a massive fan following who backs him all the way. But recently, he hinted at something that’s got everyone talking in the bodybuilding community. Despite all the challenges he’s faced in his career, he’s managed to earn heaps of admiration and bag the Mr. Olympia title four times in a row.

Now, there’s a big question mark hanging over his future. His supporters think he’s achieved what many can only dream of at his age. The debate about what’s next for him is still on everyone’s mind. Just recently, a fitness-focused page posted about it on its official Instagram page. They asked people what they think about Chris Bumstead’s chances of winning and how he stacks up against other strong contenders in the Classic division.

Will Chris Bumstead defend his title?

The page BISANDTRIS captioned their post featuring Bumstead, they wrote, “Chris Bumstead – 4x Olympia champion @cbum is set to defend his throne for the fifth time against a much-improved lineup that includes @ramondinopro, @the.miraclebear, @breonma_, and more. What are your expectations for Chris?.” They have mentioned that the 28-year-old bodybuilder is going to defend his coveted title for the fifth time.

The competition will be tough this year because the rules in classic physique have changed a bit. The changes in height and weight might affect it. CBum stands 6’1 tall and has had some benefits before, but he confidently said that nothing will stop him from winning the title again.

The recent post shared by BISANDTRIS has mixed reactions from his fans. One wrote to this post, “Win and retire, dude has nothing left to prove and can only gain by focusing on his long-term health.” Another opines, “I don’t think he’s done after this one. I think he wins 6 or 7 and then walks away. He’s still only 28”.  “Chris will win for as long as he competes. It’s not a size game. His structure is just 1 in a billion.” “I’m sure he’ll win and ride off into the sunset”.
