Early Life:

Bumstead was born and raised in Canada's administrative capital city of Ottawa, Ontario. Growing up, he was involved in multiple sports such as football, baseball, basketball, and hockey in high school. He started weightlifting at the age of 14, and between the ninth and twelfth grade, he went from 170 to 225 pounds, growing his legs the most. After building what he thought was a good physique, Bumstead met his sister's boyfriend, professional bodybuilder Iain Valliere, who has coached him since.

Career:

Growing up, bodybuilding was only a hobby for Chris Bumstead. It was never an end goal for the Canadian. After bodybuilding goals began to stack up, "all of a sudden, I was coming second at the Olympia." Bumstead's first bodybuilding show was a regional level show in Ontario which he participated in with his sister, Melissa Valliere. They both won the overall, Bumstead winning as a junior.

Bumstead made his competitive debut aged 19 in 2014 and obtained his IFBB pro card aged 21 after claiming the 2016 IFBB North American Bodybuilding Championship. After multiple shows, Bumstead was the runner-up of the 2017 in the Classic Physique division, being edged out by Breon Ansley. While preparing for the 2018 Olympia, three weeks before the show, Bumstead noticed "crazy water retention" on his body. Due to this, he gained fifteen pounds in twenty four hours. Upon investigation and a hospital stay, a kidney biopsy showed that Bumstead discovered has an autoimmune disease. Nevertheless, he performed in the Olympia, once again finishing runner-up, falling short to Breon Ashley.

Bumstead rose to international fame as he reached the top of the podium in 2019, 2020 and 2021. This makes him the current reigning champion in Men's Classic Physique.
