Hey Everyone,
I need some help / info about the various natural bodybuilding organizations out there.
I would like to know your preferences about which natural organizaions put on the best shows, which are the worst, and general recommendations for choosing an organization to compete in.
I currently compete in the NPC, Open class. Although, I like and support the NPC, I don't use gear, and realize I am at a definite disadvantage. This will only become worse as I progress up in weight class and competition level.
I will continue to compete in the NPC, but I would like to set a goal for myself of eventually turning pro in a natural organization and I'd like the advice of those who have competed in the various natural organizations.
Finally, I need to know which organizations count pro-hormone use as a violation of their drug free policy, and the length of time being drug free that is required.
I haven't used any prescription hormones for more than 10 years, but I have used pro-hormones more recently. I know some organizations allow some substances and others do not allow any prior use at all.
Thank you very much for your help.
