Guyanese of all walks of life are expected to grace the National Cultural Centre (NCC) when the Flex Night Incorporated presents Flex Night International starting at 19:00hrs. But even before that activity gets underway, the group will host a Fitness Expo in the lobby of the NCC starting at 13:00hrs.
Last evening, officials of Flex Night Inc. hosted a Welcome Cocktail and interactive session at the offices of Demerara Mutual Conference Room, Scotia Bank Building, Robb Street, Georgetown where several bigwigs in the bodybuilding arena merged mere hours after arriving in the country.
Those gracing the event were President of the Suriname Bodybuilding and Weightlifting Association, Mukesh Kanhai, President of the Guyana Amateur Body Building and Fitness Federation (GABBFF), Keavon Bess, bodybuilding and fitness coach, Rinus Venderzeijden and Fitness Queen of Europe, Gisa ter Haar.
Mr. Venderzeijden will facilitate in a seminar that underlines the benefits of fitness and nutrition, tomorrow at the Herdmanston Lodge from 10:00hrs. He said that he is concerned that Guyanese are not taking special care with their diet and he will endeavor to impart valuable tips that could foster the relevant changes. He will also touch on training techniques.
Ms. ter Haar will also speak on food and nutrition with a specific focus on the incorporation of food, training and lifestyles for the complete individual. Sporting a well honed body, Ms. ter Haar said that after child bearing activities most women develop a misconception about exercising and place all the emphasis on domestic chores while neglecting their bodies.
She said that she will be discussing the vagaries of this issue with an objective of changing these beliefs.
“We will also focus on men’s role in fostering the relevant changes in the women’s attitude,” said Ms ter Haar.
On stage action tonight will however see athletes from Guyana and Suriname battling for individual and country glory when the curtains are drawn for the Flex Night International competition.
Fans can look forward to exciting competition among the males with the Surinamese represented by four of their top competitors, fresh off their senior national champions and included in their line-up is Mr. Suriname 2012.
They will also be represented by a number of fans who have made the trip to support their own.
Guyanese will be satisfied that they will be well represented by the cream of the crop locally with a few tested, tried and proven competitors making a return to the stage.
The female best legs and bikini competitions will also set the night alight with a number of first timers set to grace the cultural centre stage with their presence.
An entertaining night is anticipated.
