Bodybuilding has been among the popular American sports. Moreover, Chris Bumstead and Mamdouh ‘Big Ramy’ Elssbiay are currently the two biggest icons of the sport. Both of them have a massive fan following after their spectacular performances in the last few years. Unfortunately, they never did an on-stage pose together as they compete in different categories. However, their fans wouldn’t be deprived of this gracious sight for long.

In December 2020, reigning champions Big Ramy and Chris Bumstead were witnessed doing a posing routine together in a gym. What was the posedown about?

Two years ago, both the exceptional bodybuilders of their era performed a posing routine together. They posed together for a photo shoot for Pro-Fitness Photos. 

Both the bodybuilding icons were seen having fun while shooting their iconic poses.

Moreover, doing it as a fun shoot rather than the pressure of winning made it a joyful experience for both of them.

Chris Bumstead revealed the reason for shifting interests across Mr. Olympia categories

Mr. Olympia Classic Physique has immensely attracted fans in the past few years. However, there is a big role for bodybuilders like Chris Bumstead who are massively followed by bodybuilding fans. Even though people still love the ‘Open’ category as well, the interests have certainly shifted a bit. 

Bumstead once revealed his opinion on the matter. CBum said, “I think the reason they are switching down is because they have the chance to look like their childhood heroes rather than the new people on top now. Which are just absolute math monster which doesn’t appeal to such a large crowd.”
