Chris Bumstead Had to Go Cross-Country to Train

Ever since the start of the pandemic, people in the bodybuilding and fitness industry have had to make adjustments to support their lifestyles. This included people at the Olympia level as well. For evidence to back this up, look no further than two-time Classic Physique Olympia champion Chris Bumstead. His home country of Canada still has restrictions in various districts. As he told Dennis James on this week’s episode of “The Menace Podcast,” he and his crew had to go across the country so they could train at a gym the way they prefer to.
