Chris Bumstead took viewers through an average day of meals during his bulking phase of training.
The 2021 Mr. Olympia is about three months away. The competition will take place from Oct. 5-10 Orlando and participants are beginning preparation. For Chris Bumstead, he has finished his bulking phase and decided to give us an inside look at his diet during this period.
Bumstead posted a video on YouTube giving viewers and fans an inside look at his day-to-day meals during this bulking phase.
Chris Bumstead is the reigning two-time Classic Physique champion at Mr. Olympia. He is going for his third in a row and feels like he has a great chance.
“This is the final full day of eating,” Bumstead said at the end of the video. “Prep starting soon. This is the biggest, strongest I’ve been going into a prep. I’m feeling really good, really excited. Probably going to start prep a bit earlier this year because I’m in such a good spot. Trying to get ahead of the game and get after that three-peat.”
Chris Bumstead gave a full insight to his daily preparation. After a morning stretch and drinking water, Bumstead begins with his vitamins. In the morning, he begins with lipids for heart, liver and kidney health followed by Omega K2 D3 vitamins. This is when Bumstead took to the scale to give a live weigh-in where he checked in at 264.6 pounds.
According to Bumstead, this is a bit higher than usual.
“264.6. Not going to, that’s actually a lot heavier than I thought I was going to be today. The highest I’ve been is 263, so lucky me, the morning vlog is a new morning high.”
After all of his normal morning rituals, Chris Bumstead was ready to get his meals going for the day. Below is a full breakdown of his insane calorie intake consumed during his bulking period.
