Few bodybuilders have had a more meteoric rise than Chris Bumstead. Since 2019, the Canadian bodybuild icon has won four Mr. Olympia Classic Physique titles consecutively. Within this short period, the bodybuilding star has amassed a legion of fans to become one of the most popular bodybuilders on the planet. With nearly 16 million Instagram followers and 2.96 million YouTube subscribers, Bumstead’s fanbase is massive. Recently the reigning champion started his brand, CbumFitness, to grow and nurture his community of fans.
Through CbumFitness, fans get access to workout programs, including motivational and instructional content from Bumstead himself. However, earlier, the four-time champion ran into a problem with the CbumFitness Instagram page.

Earlier today, Chris Bumstead uploaded a story on his Instagram account. In his post, the reigning champion revealed an issue he ran into with the CbumFitness Instagram page. According to Bumstead, his page “keeps getting taken down.” The Canadian bodybuilder said he “can’t even tag” his brand page on posts after Instagram hit his page with the ban hammer.

The CbumFitness official website is linked in his Instagram bio. However, not having a separate page for his brand can severely impact marketing. Unable to fix the issue, ‘Cbum’ has asked his nearly 16 million Instagram followers for assistance. “If anyone has a connect at @facebook/@instagram. Please help,” Bumstead wrote in his Instagram story.
The four-time Mr. Olympia Classic Physique champ also uploaded a screenshot of the “error” message that greets him every time he tries to log into the CbumFitness page. Chris Bumstead’s Instagram story reveals that message that states, “You can’t use Instagram because your account didn’t follow our Community Guidelines.”

However, the following line is even more concerning. “This decision can’t be reversed either because we’ve already reviewed it…” read the rest of the error message. We’ll have to wait and see if someone can assist ‘Cbum’ with the situation. However, recently Bumstead had a more positive update for his fans.
The reigning champ is back at it
Earlier, the four-time Classic Physique winner also posted a workout reel. Bumstead had some medical issues, including a torn bicep that prevented him from training since his win at the Mr. 2022. However, it seems the off-season has officially begun for the defending champ.

“Fresh off the plane straight into squats,” wrote the most decorated Classic Physique champion after returning from the Arnold Sports Festival in Ohio. “Trying out the more Tom Platz-style squats staying upright, high volume, closer stance, and as much ROM as possible,” wrote Bumstead in the caption of his reel.
