Kaieteur Sports – Front lateral spreads, back double biceps, side chest, front lateral spreads are some of the phrases the audience will hear being bellowed to the behemoths of Central America & the Caribbean when they take the stage to display their chiselled bodies this weekend to compete in one of the Region’s premier Body Building & Fitness Championships, at the National Cultural Centre (NCC).
Over 250 athletes representing 20 countries will be vying for top honours in both the body building and physique categories.
Coming hot off the heels of the just concluded Mr. Olympia where Nigerian-born Samson Dauda, who now represents the United Kingdom, the sport worldwide is enjoying unprecedented highlight and Guyana and the CAC Body, rightfully, would want to exploit such exposure.
The championships will reveal who has incorporated the ingredients necessary to dominate their rivals.
