Explain the popularity of Bumstead

[aHarness]

Palumbo will say anything to get people talking about his low viewing shows lol Also Chris having 22+ mil followers and around 2+ mil likes on every post is a really good ratio

Palumbo made himself sound dumb the moment he said Chris should have his own energy drink lol

do people like Palumbo around here? I used to love listening to Heavy Muscle Radio when it was just him and Chris. When they started to doing the Lee priest and John Romano shit I started checking out because those guys were so heavily opinionated. When it was Dave and Chris talking about bodybuilding shows it was more organic and pure, and actually good analysis of the competitors.

Wow some of you guys care wayyyyy to much about this

Damn

No opinion on him really, haven’t seen enough of him personally. He made himself sound pretty goofy in what I was referring to, but of course that’s just a single instance I heard.

his response

I did / do always like Dave and he is right...Iain has always been insufferable. Probably the only bodybuilding personality I actively dislike.

Cristiano Ronaldo broke the 200 million follower mark a few years ago, not without accusations of buying followers.

This footballer has 5 golden balls, 4 champions league titles and other national titles, has broken scoring records and has played for the most prestigious clubs in Italy, Spain and the UK.

While Bumstead earns 50.000 dollars a year from his "employer", the PL, (and as long as he wins the Olympia), Cristiano has earned from his clubs between 15 and 30 million dollars for 2 decades.

I don't think Bumstead has a tenth of Cristiano's reach. It doesn't make sense, Cristiano is an athlete in the most popular sport in the world, and in the beauty or modelling part, he has been hired by best companies in the sector. Of course, Nike, Adidas or whoever, they pay him like tons of million a year.

Im not sure what your point is.. I just pointed out that with 20 mil followers 2 mil likes per post is a good ratio to show that they arent fake.. not to point out income or how popular he is

Interesting. Know what else?

Reindeer eyeballs turn blue in winter to help them see at lower light levels. (They're golden-colored in summer.) No other mammals are known to have this ability.

I agree here, but also have some degree of sympathy for iain as I think he has some insecurity issues… but that’s just how it comes across to me.

When he was competing I’m sure you remember how much he’d argue in the comments, and then also how he was in actual tears when milos critiqued him.

 

[CorgisOnTren]

He’s just a “regular dude” and that’s why so many people relate to him and like him. He’s not Tom Brady or Michael Jordan and knows it. Nor is he Arnold in terms of ambition and success in life.

Arnold’s look with a “regular dude” attitude. Isn’t that like the ideal dream of our society currently for younger guys.

Nothing wrong with being that way. Not everyone can or wants to be a Tom Brady or MJ. That’s a different level of sacrifice.

The concept of him being relatable makes total sense to me if that’s what’s drawing people in, that’s just not what I think of when I think of charismatic. I think of big personality.

I don't know about this. I think it started out as that maybe but turned into woman hating incel culture. I'm pretty conservative far maybe extreme right and I find red pill lame and annoying.

Red pill is great. How cannot be??? It is reality , how it really is. Some people just cant stand it cause it shows them where they are lacking. Women always prefered more mature , wealthy , smarter , more handsome men and they will do a lot to get one. If somebody think that is not fair then I am asking: you think it is not fair that woman wants the best possible father for their potential kids? I think that it is in everybody best interest to make sure that this is gonna happen. And if that mean that you should put some work to get laid so be it. It is in a long term gonna benefit you - just like bodybuilding. Red pill is just like our sport - building better yourself overall. For a lot of people truth is to harsh to swallow cause they prefer everything for free. Sorry not gonna happen.

I don't know man, if you have to consciously think about interactions with men or women you've already lost. After getting a bit of an education you see this redpill shit is just false hope, its psuedoscience at best, misogyny at worst. Remember, your schemas of how the world work also influence your perceptions of the interactions you have. Be the best self you can be, but when kids start getting into the dark triad, Machievialian corny shit I just see try hards and you can smell that a mile away, insecurity is loud.
I know what you are trying to get it but I think the redpill just took a wrong turn or isn't an apt term... Learn charisma, learn yourself to have a rock solid sense of identity and that is about it.

? I agree with what you said. Woman want a fit (not overly muscular)healthy, well endowed, rich guy who isn't a pushover and is confident Red pill is lame because it's a bunch of dudes coming together to bitch about woman wanting this and help each other get woman's and celebrate together when they get laid. It's like a support group where losers support each other emotionally and think the little tips they talk about together to get laid actually matter, when in reality confidence is natural it's not something you learn from reading some red pill/pick up artist nonsense on Reddit or in a book you buy in Amazon "the redpill bro guide to picking up women" lol.

This. Woman can spot a fake or try hard s mlle away. A dude who sucks with girls and isn't naturally confident would be better getting a degree that leads to big $$ and buying escorts every weekend then spending hours reading books trying to figure out how to be pimp daddy.

 

[Biggerp73]

Not really that difficult to see why he's as popular as he is...

Watch literally any video he's ever recorded for one minute and you can see he's the most likeable human in bodybuilding history

Lol no he's not he's shy and vain

 

[Biggerp73]

This is a misunderstanding of the female gaze. He is incredibly sexy to young fertile women. He has god tier facial features, he's a member of the ethnic group women of all ethnic groups find the most attractive (this is not a value judgement or my opinion, just an empirical fact that whites are strongly preferred on the dating market and this is more true for men than it is for women), and he's six foot 1. His more sensitive and "feminine" behavioural disposition is also very appealing to most girls. Girls don't actually like dominant hypermasculine personalities, by and large. This is just red pill fantasy.

Lol

 

[Biggerp73]

He has one of the most aesthetic physiques of all time.

No he doesn't and it's not even close

 

[goback2013]

Yes, I am black/white/latin mixed. But acknowledging the objective revealed preferences of others doesn't have much to do with my own ethnicity. It's just data, nothing to be offended or triggered by.

I'm too full of myself to be triggered.
Plus with my mother being part of that Asian/pacifc-island community I am all too familiar what you speak of. I grew up hearing it, and still hear from that side of the family.
That side practically disowned my mother for having a baby(me) with a black man.
So yeah I'm all too familiar with that 'marry white' ideology. Doesn't bother me. Im really only into black women myself..

“Chris Bumstead is fantastic...So, I mean, he’s really extraordinary and I tell you it just I always feel like you know the insiders have their own favorites and then there’s the viewers, the spectators, the fans and he’s the most popular...Everyone out there says that’s the kind of a body I want.”

"I think it’s odd they had to literally create a classic physique competition to give to the person that has the best quality body, the most well-balanced body, also a trophy."
