Cbum will financially support the increase in prize money at Classic Physique Olympia 2025!

Chris Bumstead, the iconic champion of the Classic Physique category, has announced his intention to make a donation to increase prize money at the Classic Physique Olympia 2025. Following his victory in 2024, he decided that he would like to cap off his career with a significant legacy, not only on the podium but also within the bodybuilding community.

"I want to talk to Dan (owner of Mr. Olympia) and make it a little more interesting. The amount for the next winner will be higher than what I got,"

Bumstead said as he revealed his plans. He added that the funding will come directly from his personal funds:

"It will be from my own money, I want to give something back to this category that has made me a global star."

In addition, Chris stressed that his goal is to motivate the next generation of bodybuilders.

"I hope this will light a fire in others and get them to bring even better form,"

he said. With this move, Bumstead shows that he is not only a role model in competing, but also in promoting the growth and development of the sport that has given him so much.
