The Guyana Amateur Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation (GABBFF) hosted the National Novices and Intermediate championships on Sunday evening at the Theatre Guild in Kingston, Georgetown with Berbician Dwayne Mars flexing his way to the overall title.
Mars, the 2012 Berbice Flex Night winner, proved that his achievement at that event in the Ancient County was no accident, as he muscled his way to victory over the very best local novices
at the national championship, dubbed “Muscle Invasion.”
Mars, who trains at Fitness Zone gym, had earlier won the Light Middleweight division and was up against other category winners in the overall show down.
Mars performed excellently, displaying shred abdominals, well defined quadriceps and carved arms in his free routine and obligatory poses.
He was up against Kelvin Bobb-Semple, who had earlier won the under-21 category, Shahid Toloram (flyweight champion), Jermaine Bacchus (lightweight champion), Rawle Cole (welterweight champion) and Anthony Peres (heavyweight).
On the distaff side, 2012 Flex Night Miss Bikini conqueror, Shawnell Warner, captured first place in the Miss Fitness Open, beating gym-mate Stacy Small of Fitness Paradise into second.
Small also secured the runner-up spot to Candacy Lynch in the Miss Physique face-off.
The event was graced with the presence of Mr. Barbados 2012, Stevenson Belle, who was the guest poser. The 5’7″, 215lbs Bajan certainly gave the audience its money’s worth, as he paraded his well chiseled structure to the lyrics of Nicki Minaj’s hit song “Moment for Life”, much to the delight of the spectators.
The top performers were presented with cash prizes and trophies compliments of Banks DIH Limited, while the winners of each division also received supplements, compliments of Fitness Express of Sheriff Street.
Other corporate entities on board were Guyana Lottery Company, DeSinco Trading, Sterling Products Limited, Trophy Stall, Sleep Inn and Windjammer International Hotel.
At the conclusion of the night’s activities, officials of the GABBFF dubbed the event a major success.
