Chris Bumstead came in as a surprise underdog. Now the pressure is on.

IRON CINEMA – Every Monday we connect you with Generation Iron director Vlad Yudin. Get a first hand look at the entire journey of the bodybuilding industry – ranging from athlete interviews, behind-the-scene looks at major events, and insight into the Generation Iron Fitness Network‘s original shows and films.

Chris Bumstead was a force of nature that seemed to come out of nowhere in the Classic Physique Olympia competition this year. That’s what I find so exciting about this new division. It’s so new that a lot of unexpected things can happen… and untapped potential could be just around the corner. With so much room for evolution in the sport and the physiques of this division – I knew I needed to speak with Chris Bumstead, a 22 year old bodybuilding full of more potential than we’ve already seen.

In my time speaking with Chris we talk about where he comes from, what his plans are for the future in the industry, and why he thinks he didn’t land the first place spot at the Olympia 2017. We also touch upon Men’s Open and the constant debate about bubble guts. You can watch the full interview above.
