In light of the recent announcement from the NPC regarding their decision to leave the IFBB Amateur Division there have been many questions with regards to where that leaves the CBBF.

Many of the athletes are questioning where this puts us as an association and what will become of our National events etc.

Please be assured that the CBBF is operating at status quo and is still under the IFBB Amateur Division.  The Ben Weider Legacy Cup and all IFBB World Championship events will continue and Pro Cards will be awarded at the Legacy Cup and to the IEQ Champions. 

First and foremost we need to ensure that we are looking after the best interest of all our members, therefor doing our due diligence is a must.  The CBBF will communicate to all of you any and all information as we receive it. 

Thank you for your patience as all of this unfolds, and as soon as we have updates we will communicate immediately.

Exciting news!!

The Canadian Body Building Federation produces some of the top professional body building & fitness physique athletes in the world. We are proud to announce the launching of a digital magazine focused exclusively on our CBBF membership coming this fall.

Continue to follow us for more details.

With the recent outbursts from some of the athletes who recently competed at the CBBF National Bodybuilding event that are being shared on social media, the CBBF would like to remind all athletes of the CBBF Code of Conduct which is located on the CBBF website ByLaw 15 Athlete Code of Ethics.

The recent disparaging remarks made against specific judges was inappropriate, derogatory, offensive and insulting to the entire CBBF.

The CBBF will not tolerate online bullying and should anyone decide to take this route, the CBBF will take immediate action to suspend the athlete (s) indefinitely from participating in any IFBB/ CBBF sanctioned event in any capacity.

The CBBF Executive

Avec les récents agissements de certains athlètes qui ont récemment participé au Championnat Canadien CBBF qui circulent sur les médias sociaux, la CBBF tient à rappeler que tous les athlètes doivent se conformer au Code de conduite de la CBBF, code disponible sur le site web de la CBBF.

Les remarques récemment faites contre des juges spécifiques étaient inappropriées, dérogatoires, offensantes et insultantes pour l’ensemble de la CBBF.

La CBBF ne tolérera pas la cyberintimidation et si quelqu’un décide de prendre cette voie, la CBBF prendre des mesures immédiates pour suspendre indéfiniment le(s) athlète(s) de participer à un événement sanctionné IFBB/CBBF.
