Bikini + Bodybuilding Federations in Australia

There are six key bodybuilding federations in Australia:

INBA Australia (International Natural Bodybuilding Association)
ANB (Australasian Natural Bodybuilding)
IFBB Australia (International Federation of Bodybuilding)
NABBA / WFF (National Amateur Body-Builders Association / World Fitness Federation); and
WBFF Australia (World Beauty Fitness Fashion)
WNBF Australia (World Natural Bodybuilding Federation).

These organisations also effectively operate as the relevant fitness, figure and bikini competition federations in Australia.

Natural Bodybuilding Federations

There are three natural bodybuilding federations in Australia: ANB, INBA and WNBF. In each case the ‘N’ in their name stands for 'Natural', and they aim to run drug free bodybuilding competitions. However, only INBA and ANB use ASADA for their drug testing. Both these federations have banned competitors based on ASADA drug tests.

Non Tested Bodybuilding Federations

There are two non tested bodybuilding federations in Australia: IFBB Australia and NABBA. Some competitors in non-tested bodybuilding shows use substances to enhance their muscular mass or to help with fat loss.
