NEW INBF/WNBF JUDGING GUIDELINES FOR 2010

LOOKING AHEAD AT 2010

Beginning on the 2010, there will be a few modifications to the INBF/WNBF judging procedures. This is to ensure that athletes are provided the best opportunity to be fairly judged at all INBF/WNBF events and to help the athlete understand what the judges are looking for physique-wise.

At all bodybuilding prejudging, three score will be given to both male and female competitors. Bodybuilders will be scored on symmetry, muscle mass and conditioning. In the past, INBF/WNBF guidelines dictated that athletes be scored over two rounds: Symmetry and muscularity. The muscularity round combined both mass and conditioning creating a difficult choice for judges of deciding between these two aspects of bodybuilding.

To make the scoring more clearly defined, an extra round will be added to the prejudging consisting of four poses : Most Muscular (of choice), Front Double Biceps, Side Chest (of choice) and Rear Lat Spread. Bodybuilders will be judged on fat-free muscle mass, not by overall conditioning. Athletes will be judged on conditioning in a separate round consisting of all the mandatory poses.

This will especially help Women's Bodybuilding, which is often confused with Figure and Ms. Fit Body. Figure athletes are scored in three rounds in the prejudging: Beauty/Presence, Symmetry/Muscletone and Presentation. Athletes are required to display an athletic, feminine physique, which takes into account facial beauty, overall appearance and graceful presentation.

Ms. Fit Body will no longer be scored by facial beauty. Instead scoring will be based on symmetry and muscle tone being presented in a series of feminine poses. Judges are not looking for a bodybuilding-type physique, but an above-average athletic appearance.

The Head Judge at all INBF/WNBF events reserves the right to penalize an athlete one point for each pose if the athlete refuses to perform the requested poses properly. The athlete will be given a warning to correctly perform the pose and if the judge's request is ignored, may have a penalty assessed to their placement for each improper pose Athletes will perform only the poses requested by the Head Judge or face the same penalty.

WNBF's Rich Fitter on Drug Testing & Banned Substances

From Rich Fitter of the WNBF/INBF:

The question of using polygraph exams from one organization to another was recently raised. Although this idea may seem financially beneficial to the athletes, it is not possible due to differences in the banned substance list between natural bodybuilding federations.
One product that the INBF/WNBF Executive Committee has received inquires about is DHEA. While some natural organizations do allow this hormone in specific amounts, this product is banned by the INBF/WNBF, even in minimal amounts. Because DHEA can cause higher than normal levels of androgens, it could cast a shadow of doubt on a person’s natural status should they fail a drug test. The INBF/WNBF wants to eliminate all potential risks to athlete’s reputations.

7-oxo-DHEA (also known as 7-keto-DHEA), 7alpha-hydroxy-DHEA (7alpha-OH-DHEA) and 7beta-hydroxy-DHEA (7beta-OH-DHEA) are not banned by the WNBF or INBF when used for weight loss. Although hormonal metabolites of DHEA, they do not elevate testosterone levels and can be used by WNBF or INBF athletes.

The INBF/WNBF has always taken great pride in maintaining the most stringent and extensive banned substance list in the sport. This is done not only for ethical reasons, but also for the safety of the athletes. While some organizations take the “if you can pass the test, its fine” approach, the INBF/WNBF has provided athletes with a list of what is banned. In the event an athlete is unsure of a product, he or she can contact Charlie Carollo for approval via e-mail at inbf@epix.net.

Bahamas Anti-Doping Commission challenges

The Anti-Doping in Sports Bill 2009 calls for the establishment of the Bahamas Anti-Doping Commission. This is very much in step with the level of sophistication in monitoring athletes, being subscribed to by most nations where the sporting industry is a dominant factor. For The Bahamas, an anti-doping commission, if set up and operated properly, would result in full respectability.

This issue of doping is a most delicate one. Thus far, we have had a couple of situations in athletics, a few in bodybuilding and little or nothing else. We have been lucky and around the world today, The Bahamas is not tainted.

We are certainly not like that country in which a certain event was being staged earlier this year. Several dope testing agents came on the scene and contestants vanished. They knew what the findings would be.

The tendency to use enhancing drugs is powerful. The pressure to succeed and to compete at the high bar level is tremendous. In order to have a high productivity, athletes must consume supplements. There are many drug brands on the international market that give that extra push (but they are banned). More often than is acceptable, top flight athletes succumb to the temptation and reach for that extra edge. Some get by and others don’t. There is also the angle of ignorance. The list of banned substances is gigantic. Often, the World Anti-doping Agency (WADA) adds to the list and the new items go unnoticed.

One could go to a pharmacy for an over-the-counter medication, only to find out later that it now contains a chemical that has just recently been banded. If the WADA folks come around and perform one of their random tests, the athlete in question ends up with a problem, sometimes a two-year suspension kind of a problem.

Yes, The Bahamas Anti-Doping Commission can play a major role for our athletes and federations. It must be well-structured and linked closely to all of the sports federations and other official entities that deal with athletes in competition. The task is a large one.
To show how demanding this undertaking is, six items from sub-section 5 (Functions of the Commission) as they appear in Part II of the Bill, follow:

The Commission shall be responsible for:

d. establishing a register for the Registered Testing Pool of national-level and international-level Bahamian athletes who are citizens or residents of The Bahamas and notifying such athletes and relevant national sporting organizations of entries made in the register.

e. directing the anti-doping program of the government specific to sports including the conducting of testing of athletes, planning, coordinating, and implementing the collection of samples, the management of test results and conducting hearings in keeping with the mandatory international standards set out in the code.

f. testing any athlete whether or not he (she) is a citizen or resident of The Bahamas.

g. notifying test results to athletes and, as the case may be, governments of countries other than The Bahamas, anti-doping organizations of other countries, or other signatories to the Code in accordance with bilateral or multilateral agreements entered into by The Bahamas with such governments, organizations or signatories.

h. entering into reciprocal testing agreements with national anti-doping organizations outside The Bahamas, in relation to any athlete.

i. encouraging and facilitating the negotiation by any sporting organization and anti-doping organization of any agreement permitting their members to be tested by authorized doping control teams from other countries.

j. cooperating with the testing and education initiatives of WADA and other anti-doping organizations.

It is indeed a tall order and very involved. Best wishes to those responsible to the government for the commission and how it functions.

Ultimate Fitness Events Trainer and Competitor Recognition Programs

Ultimate Fitness Events Trainer and Competitor Recognition Programs

Trainers and competitors are a huge part of what makes a show successful! All too often, bodybuilding and fitness organizations fail to recognize that. As a competitor I would sometimes have 20-30 people out to support me. That made big money for the organization I was competing with. As a trainer, I would sometimes put 5-10 competitors in a show and with those 5 10 competitors could be up to 100+ spectators. But how many organizations actually recognize trainers and competitors for helping to make a successful show? Ultimate Fitness Events is here to show the trainers and competitors how much we appreciate their participation in our events with our all new Trainer and Competitor Recognition Programs. Read on for the exciting details!

Trainers
