Winners received their prizes from South African bodybuilding legend, 1986 Mr Universe contestant, Kevin McNamara. In the end seven athletes, including Gill Holm and Solomon Mahone from Lesotho, who won the Men’s Overall title, were invited to participate in the INBA Natural Olympia, to be held from 6-9 November 2014 in San Diego, California. Holm will be trying to defend the gold medal she won at the event in 2013. As part of their drug testing programme, INBA SA conducted an analysis of every competitor’s sample provided at the competition. The testing provided INBA SA with valuable data on participants’ biological markers and profiles, which enables INBA South Africa to identify both off-season and future in-contest target testing. The federation will also be conducting education programmes in future for competitors who wish to broaden their knowledge and compete as natural athletes.
