Besides being called CBum, bodybuilder [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/bodybuilding/], Chris Bumstead has also gained the nickname “Daddy”. The 4x Mr. Olympia champion has thousands of fans and followers who are not only inspired by CBum but also admire the bodybuilder for his incredible physique and looks. The well-known YouTuber recently disclosed how he feels about being called “Daddy”, the most famous term used by his followers to describe the bodybuilder. Bumstead was recently featured on Raw Nutrition’s YouTube channel to answer a few fan questions. It was a candid interview, and the bodybuilder responded to every question in detail. This also included answering – “What’s it like being called Daddy?” [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Chris-Bumstead.jpg] Soon after reading out the question, Bumstead could not stop himself from holding back a blush. However, he explained his feelings and said, “Online being called ‘Daddy’ is one thing. It’s funny, I reply with a picture like, ‘Thanks, son,’ or whatever. But in person, when a grown man comes up to me, looks me in the eyes, and says, ‘Hi Daddy,’ there’s nothing weirder.” Bumstead gets extremely awkward when his fans use the term to address him in real life. He further added, “It is really uncomfortable and super weird. Especially when this guy’s girlfriend is right beside him, and he comes up and calls me Daddy. I’m like this is just weird. And I get uncomfortable and I laugh.” Seems like having a toned body and handsome looks does not come with some consequences. And who better than Bumstead will know about this? Bumstead Is Back With His Iconic Mr. Olympia Look [https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-bodybuilding-news-holy-shredded-lettuce-bodybuilding-world-overjoyed-as-chris-bumstead-is-back-with-his-iconic-mr-olympia-look/] However, this is not the first time the bodybuilder has reacted to being called “Daddy”. CHRIS BUMSTEAD ACCEPTED HIS FATE Once, Bumstead read and reacted to a few of his TikTok comments and tweets [https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-bodybuilding-news-apparently-i-am-just-daddy-now-chris-bumstead-reacts-to-bodybuilding-fans-in-awe-of-his-gigantic-physique/] on one of his YouTube videos. And as always, fans in the comments never seemed to hold back their love and admiration for the Candian star. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Chris-Bumstead.jpeg] However, most of these comments referred to CBum as “Daddy”, which the bodybuilder has grown used to by now. Hence, after reading a çomment, which referred to him by his new unofficial title, Bumstead sarcastically replied and said, “Apparently, I am a daddy now.” Nonetheless, CBum is well aware of the term and often jokes around with his fans whenever they use the new word of appreciation.

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.
