He was also a featured star in the feature film documentary Generation Iron 3.

Is Chris Bumstead Going to Men’s Open?

There have been rumors and discussions for a long time now about Bumstead potentially making the jump to Men’s Open. This is even something that he has talked about in interviews but there is no plan as of now.

Bumstead is coming off his fifth consecutive Olympia victory in Classic Physique. He will continue to prepare for the 2024 competition. He has taken time off from training but plans to hit it hard once the holidays are done.

“Going through my old lifting videos because I miss training😢
It’s funny working out has been such a staple in my life, but this is the first time I’ve taken time off and every day I feel like something is missing.”

Bumstead continued on to discuss his plans moving forward.

Chris Bumstead: “My Main Goal Is Getting Jacked”

Chris Bumstead shared some massive workout videos while sharing his goal and even issued a challenge for fans.

“Routine is so important to everyone, and to me the routine of having some form of intense exercise has always been a form of therapy.

I’m going to do my best in the new year to document on YouTube getting my ass back into elite shape with a relatively “balanced” lifestyle. Lots of good food that good for you, cardio that isn’t miserable, and lifting some heavy ass weight.”
