Consider this a warning or advice from Chris Bumstead

Chris Bumstead, being one of the most iconic bodybuilders, addressed future bodybuilders regarding the consumption of supplements in June. He was really serious about the health-related issues that are a part and parcel of bodybuilding.

Bumstead started by asking, “What are you doing it for? You’re going to win the Olympia?” and answered, “Probably not. Sorry. Only very few people, one a year, so you’re probably not going to.” Bumstead was straightforward. It was a cold-hearted statement, but he isn’t wrong. 

“Just don’t fu*k your shit up. Don’t be an idiot,” Bumstead said and continued, “If you love training, then go after the other things like natural supplements.” He wants people to stay safe and not mess up their health to win competitions. He knows that bodybuilding is a dangerous sport, and people might go beyond their limits to achieve their goals, which might have adverse health issues after a while.
