Bodybuilding posing instruction with IFBB pro Chris Bumstead and IFBB head judge Steve Weinberg

This video is an amazing insight into the art of posing for competitors and fans alike.
During a visit to Bev Francis Powerhouse Gym (the East Coast Mecca) IFBB pro Chris Bumstead got a chance to have his posing tweaked by none other than the IFBB head coach himself, Steve Weinberger.

[@HeyImDateMike]

TheLoneTiger no chance. Doesnt have a bubble gut AND has a vacuum lol

[@estelombo]

Same was said about dallas mcarver........

[@Zeno-js4fj]

Ray Donlon ya, but Chris isn’t a mass monster that died from all the drugs he needed to get him huge.

[@HeyImDateMike]

Zeno Exactly. He had potential for the open division. Baumstead is in classic and probably doesnt get above 240-250 which is way better for your heart

[@sheridansaul1590]

Still unhealthy for his height, but who cares right?

[@kookiboy]

[@TheLusianPopa]

a pro bb with 18 inch arms is pathetic IMO, I have that and im natty rest of his phisique is great , maybe his back needs more thickness

[@aussieinkorea593]

That posing coach is amazingly good.

[@JMBBproject]

This guy should be Mr.O!

[@MikePulcinellaVideo]

We think he will be. He placed second last year, his first time out.

[@JMBBproject]

Thanks for the answer Mike. I am also referring to the open class. I think the time of pregnant guys on stage has to come to an end and Chris is definitely bringing the Golden era back!

[@romeostreinger3894]

I was rooting for him. IMHO, if his arms were a tad bigger, he would have won, as that was the only part of his physique ever so slightly lacking in comparison to Breon Ansley's arms. I'm sure we'll see him taking the title in the future.

[@revopat1257]

Romeo Štranjger his bicep genetics are not the best, but training hard overcomes genetics

[@MikePulcinellaVideo]

Very much agree!

Chris has the complete package..cant get anymore classic than this

[@RoamwithJeep]

Awesomeness. Great coaching and posing 👌🏻

[@bumbulovicstefan]

This guy is literally changing bodybuilding at the moment, a beginning of a new generation. After his uprising in Olympia Classic Physique people witnessed the classic poses again, especially the vacuum pose and how siiick/sexy of a body you can achieve (compared to Mr.Olympia where it's just monster mass). As Nick's Strength mentioned, Cody Montgomery, Regan Grimes are leaving Bodybuilding for Classic Physique, young upcomming people rather go for Classic Physique and in time it will be a greater achievement than Mr.Olympia. You also have Calum Von Moger coming back to compete, it was practically thanks to Chris here (they even trained when Chris stayed in LA, where Chris sabotaged Calum :P). It's great for the sport to show a healthier looking body for times to come, even though truthfully they really aren't that healthy if you understand... but the physique says otherwise so let's enjoy it! #BringingBackTheGoldenEra

[@abhikumarsinha]

it is always a visual treat when he poses

[@alicecullotto7530]

Appreciate this upload

[@Wrighty69]

Quite amazing how much he's already brought out his arms since the O - the only 'weakness' IMO he had. His peaks now are far better. Way to go, Chris! Breon doesn't stand a chance.

[@TheLusianPopa]

his phisique is not really old school other than the size and lines think about it most old school bb- Arnold, Nubret, Zane were arm and chest dominant, this guys arms clearly need more size and his delts are overpowering them also hardly any old schooler had legs big like that ,maybe Sergio but not arnold, zane etc..those guys were generally top heavy

My comment is worth the read as I'm sure everyone here will agree, I have always loved classic bodybuilding, the Golden era so to speak, but honestly thought I could never strive for the physiques of today because they are too big, with GH gut and bad health, but Chris Bumstead is a breath of fresh air, he has an insane physique, Symmetry and massive size and that vacuum and back double bicep is a sight to behold! Amazing! restored my faith in modern bodybuilding.
