Flex Night International…Exposition of bodies set to unfold at NCC tomorrow night
An exposition of well defined, chiseled, shredded and toned male bodies will hit the National Cultural Centre (NCC) as will some defined, fit and well curved ladies when the Flex Night International competition comes off tomorrow night from 19:00hrs.
Months of preparations will be unfolded in real terms and the judges will have the final say as to who will, in the first instance, be the category winners then the final showpiece of the night when the respective male category winners pose off for the title and bragging rights of Mr. Flex Night International 2012.

The return to active competition of former multiple CAC gold medalist Sylvan Gardner will no doubt strengthen Guyana’s bid to win the team title at stake given the high level of competition that is anticipated from the four Surinamese athletes that are expected to arrive today, including Mr. Suriname 2012, Koese Soepe who also won the Under-154 pound class on Saturday last.
Apart from Gardner, some of the other male Guyanese competitors are current Mr. Guyana Devon Davis, Royston Booker and a few from the younger crop including Donnel Perry. Male competition will be in the 154 pounds (69.8kgs) & under, 155 (70.3kgs) – 165 pounds (74.8kgs), 166 (75.3kgs) – 176 pounds (79.8kgs) and Over 176 pounds (79.8kgs).
The females will do battle in the Miss Flex Night, Miss Flex Night Bikini and Miss Flex Night Best Legs and competition is anticipated to be breathtaking.
Leading in this regard is the multi talented Ms. Alisha Fortune, a former sprint queen who has been virtually unstoppable on the bodybuilding scene, her closest competition has been Ms. Nadina Taharally.
But with the emergence of some new competition in the form of Stacy Small, Chelan Yhap, Shawnell Warner, Marissa Lowden all contenders in the Ms. Best legs and Ms. Bikini contests, it will be anybody’s guess who will take the titles and emerge as the best.
A show of quality and class is expected tomorrow evening along with a huge turnout of fans rooting for their gym mate or friend and also showing support for the sport.
And by the way, the Surinamese fans will be here in numbers to support their own, so while we anticipate keen on stage rivalry, it is also expected that the fans will have their own competition waging in the audience.
Meanwhile, guest performer Gisa Ter Haar and her team will also arrive in Guyana today. Flex Night Incorporated will be hosting a Welcome Cocktail and Magazine Launch today at the Demerara Mutual Conference Room, Scotiabank building from 18:00hrs.
The Official Opening of Fitness Expo is set for tomorrow at 13:00hrs and will be done by Prime Minister Samuel Hinds as is expected.
On Sunday, at the Herdmanston Lodge from 10:00hrs a Fitness, Nutrition and Bodybuilding Seminar will be held with the resource persons being Gisa ter Haar and Rinus van der Zeijden.
