The champions of Mr.Olympia are known for their discipline and determination. Regular training, diet, and sleep routines play a crucial role in building a conditioned physique. Often bodybuilders competing for Mr.Olympia share their training routine with their fan base on social media to keep them updated with their progress prior to the elite event. However, Chris Bumstead’s Instagram feed of late has been about his travel adventures.

Commenting about the same, a netizen showed disappointment with the 4x Mr.Olympia Classic Physique’s winner and suggested him to move out from the competing field. However, CBum has a solid message to the hater’s comment.

Chris Bumstead’s staunch reply to a hater’s comment

The 28-year-old shared a negative comment he received from a hater on his Instagram story which asked the bodybuilder to retire from the competitive scene. “I just don’t see Chris winning Olympia again. Life is chaotic. Rarely a solid workout, traveling 24/7. He’s lost his focus & drive,” the negative comment read.

Further suggesting the bodybuilding icon to move on with life, the hater added, “4 Olympia titles is an accomplishment but it’s time for him to move on, retire and solely focus on his business ventures.”

Chris Bumstead, however, knows how to deal with trolls and gives back a strong response to the haters. “You neglect the fact that I thrive under this pressure. Give me all the distractions, setbacks, whatever. That fuel for me, I’ll fight until the point I’m better than ever,” CBum strongly responded. True to his words, the bodybuilding champion earlier braved a bicep injury to pose in front of the crowd on the Mr.Olympia stage last year.

CBum rose above struggles to win Mr.Olympia last year

Bumstead geared up for the last year’s competition with a focus to win his 4th title. However, hours prior to the contest he tore his bicep. Apart from physical pain, he suffered mentally with the thoughts of his year’s hard work going down the drain just hours before the competition.

Earlier, he shared his episode of a mental breakdown just before the show. “I kinda had one of my Cbum moments in the bathroom, crying. I got on my knees in front of this mirror in this private bathroom and I looked at myself and I was like, ‘What’s going on man?” he wrote in his post.
