The Complete Profile: Chris Bumstead (CBum) – Training, Diet, Height, Weight, Biography & More

Fitness guru, social media personality, and champion bodybuilder with intense muscle mass, Chris Bumstead is making a wave and bringing new heights to body perfection. As the current IFBB Classic Physique Professional bodybuilder champion in his 20s, CBum can only go up from here. Though, there are lots of questions surrounding his life, including how he became an IFBB Pro, his body measurements, net worth, and so much more. And we’re making it a one-stop shop by going into detail about everything in this article, so let’s get right into it.

Chris Bumstead: Who Is He?

Cbum Age:

Chris Bumstead is 28 years old and was born on February 2, 1995, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

Cbum Measurements:

Cbum’s height is 6’1” (185 cm) and his weight varies from 230lbs to 264lbs (104-120 kg).Bumstead’s body measurements, as you can see above, are pretty different than the average person’s. Even compared to the ideal measurements of a special bodybuilder’s body, Bumbstead’s body ratios are very unique and many people often consider his body as oddly superhuman and a perfect championship physique.

As a comparison, Steve Reeves was the equivalent of Chris Bumstead in the 1950s. He won the Mr. America and Mr. Universe contests in what is considered the pre-steroid era of bodybuilding. Reeves was 6’1″ tall and his stage weight was 214 lbs, and as you can see, Reeves was nowhere near as massive or shredded as Bumstead.

Is Chris Bumstead Natural?

So with this superhuman size and unbelievable proportions, it’s only natural to ask if Chris Bumstead is (no pun intended), natural.

When you have an impressive physique like Chris Bumstead, you’re guaranteed to get lots of questions when it comes to how the physique was crafted. Because of this, bodybuilders rarely comment on steroids for both legal and business reasons. So rarely can anyone get a straight answer from the competitors themselves, unless information and tests are leaked.

So since CBum hasn’t come out and confirmed or denied steroid use, we must rely on the physical evidence and key indicators of steroid use that include the appearance of side effects, muscle density and proportions, and fat-free mass index (FFMI). This can be shown as hair loss, acne, and flushed skin and since CBum has a full head of hair and relatively clear skin, he certainly passes those tests. However, if you look closely his skin does have a red hue in pictures without the spray tan.

Chris Bumstead’s Life:

Christopher Adam Bumstead was a sports fan from a young age and was always a gifted athlete. He would compete in basketball, baseball, and football and because of that, Chris found himself at 14 spending time in a weight room. Between 9th to 12th grade he went from 170lbs to a heavy 225lbs and began weight training more seriously.

It wasn’t until Iain Valliere, Chris’ sister’s boyfriend who was a professional bodybuilder himself, took him under his wing and started training with Bumstead on the ins and outs of bodybuilding. And then when he was just 19, he started training for his first show which he competed in with his sister Melissa Valliere.

To this day, Bumstead still credits Iain Valliere with being his main source of inspiration and the man responsible for getting him to where he is today.

However, aside from being an accomplished bodybuilder and athlete, Chris Bumstead is very active on social media and has over 15 million followers on Instagram and close to 3 million subscribers on YouTube that showcase his training, nutrition, competition photos, and how he lives his life. Bumstead is also a part owner of the Raw Nutrition Brand based in Stuart, Florida. He is also an ambassador for the R3VIVE anti-aging company also owned by Dom Iacovone on top of running a podcast and doing online coaching so others can learn from his techniques to better their lives and give a guide for athletes.
