Iain Valliere and Chris Bumstead put in some epic work in the gym.

It looks like in-laws Iain Valliere and Chris Bumstead are putting in some serious leg training at the gym. The two top competitors are looking to get 2022 started off with a bang as they prep for the season.

There’s nothing like a good leg day to bring together your physique. A bodybuilder with poor leg development won’t be much of a contender for long. If a competitor wants to be a champion working on their wheels is absolutely paramount. This fact is why most champions put an emphasis on training their legs. Iain Valliere and Classic Physique Olympia champion Chris Bumstead understand this well and put in some serious training in the gym.

Chris Bumstead has a tight stranglehold on the Classic Physique division. He has defended his Olympia title two straight years in a row cementing himself as the king of the division. One thing that has helped him defend the throne is constantly looking to improve himself.

Iain Valliere himself is becoming a real top flight contender. Coming in seventh place at the 2021 Olympia, Valliere is climbing up the rankings and could prove to be even more of force at time moves on.

Epic Leg Day

Now the two brothers-in-law are looking push themselves with an intense leg day session. Iain Valliere and Chris Bumstead both hit legs with a vengeance as they prep for the 2022 season. A video of the training was posted to Valliere’s YouTube channel where he has this to say.

“What’s up guys, we’re here today training a little quads,” said Iain Valliere. “We got CBum here. It’s been a while since Chris has done a hard workout. Yeah like I said, we will do some quads today, start with some hacks, then going to move on to the leg press and all that kind of fun stuff. Yeah, so we’re going to get into it here, and start warming up and get into hacks.

“Okay, so we finished five sets there. Two sets, we worked up to a top set. We were aiming for 8-10 but I think we were all in the 10-12 range which is good. An average of 10. Now we’re moving on to the leg press. We only have one set here. Working up to a set of 15 with a very small pause, then pushing up five more, after failure. So re-rack, actually I think we can keep it unracked, keep the tension on, a couple seconds try to get another 5. Fifteen pushing 20, so we’re going to work up here and hammer out that one top set.”

It’s clear that Iain Valliere and Chris Bumstead are working hard to improve themselves. 2022 is looking to be a great year for the two brothers.
