The 2022 INBA PNBA schedule has been announced.
The International Natural Bodybuilding Association/Professional Natural Bodybuilding Association (INBA/PNBA) has prepared its 2022 competition schedule. INBA/PNBA is one of many natural bodybuilding leagues, but it’s the biggest. Most bodybuilding leagues don’t support the use of drugs. However, the INBA/PNBA is the leading trailblazer for getting their athletes drug tested – each athlete undergoes strict testing laboratories through World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) – state-of-the-art drug testing standards the Olympics use. Any competitor who fails a drugs test ends up on the infamous Hall of Shame.
The natural bodybuilding competitions listed below are events that take place up until the big finale on November 10-13th 2022 in Las Vegas, NV – Natural Olympia – Pinnacle of Natural Bodybuilding. It’s the biggest event for natural bodybuilders akin to Mr. Olympia in the International Federation of BodyBuilding and Fitness (IFBB) Pro league.
