    whats your question exactly ? the NPC is the Amateur division of the IFBB pro league ,, they can't 'ban' themselves , its all the same organization essentially.

    The NPC / Pro League WADA ban was extended until 2025.

    As reported on February 15, 2018, the NPC President / League Pro Jim Manion was included in the WADA List of Prohibited Associations.

    His original ban was until October 10, 2021.

    The situation did not improve for Mr. Manion as in the updated list that was published on January 16, 2019, his suspension was extended to October 10, 2025.

    Like many in the industry, especially the great defenders of the NPC and Pro League laugh at this situation, in reality it is not something to be left out.

    Is it some kind of sub-group to the NPC?

    athletes in the IFBB and NPC are not subject to WADA rules on doping. Jim Manion is the president (not an athlete). his ban basically means that WADA disapproves of the organization itself .

    this is a GOOD thing. WADA and the IFBB are diametrically opposed and stand for two completely different things. it would be best if Jim Manion and the IFBB received a life time forever ban .
    WADA is anti doping..
    IFBB is openly non tested (and non openly pro doping).

    water and oil don't mix.


    the ban of Jim Manion, as an athlete sponsor and president , basically means that anyone who competes in the IFBB is in association with him and therefore not able to compete in a "wada approved" association .. but who the F cares. no one would ever want to compete in some WADA approved bullshit organization. the IFBB is the NFL of bodybuilding.

    no bodybuilder is really effected by this at all . the only guy that could be effected by this is if some guys existed (like Mike O'hearn that had awesome genetics, is completely natural, yet looks like an IFBB pro, and wanted bodybuilding to be an olympic sport one day . if he was associated with the IFBB he may never be able to compete as a true 'natural' .

    but we all know there are no naturals in the IFBB . its all a bunch of fantasy bullshit

    drugs in bodybuilding are what footballs (the actual ball) are in football. . take away the football, ban it, and make them play the game without it, and you got a bunch of clowns in pads running around like a bunch of idiots . but with the football there, you actually have a very strategic and interesting game.

    bodybuilding should have nothing to do with WADA or the Olympics or any other silly organization that is anti doping

    I still say the NFL is a bunch of clowns. Kneeling/ no kneeling, Seattle Seahawks quarterback being the highest paid athlete not allowing money for anyone else on the team, 0 Super Bowls however 6 time super bowl quarterback Brady making a fraction.

    The same thing goes to the posing now. The previous BBers were performers and now it is all about size. I think Kai actually reverses that a little. Some of the smaller o es are now being considered.

    excited to see this new age of bodybuilding.

    love that the 300 lbs monsters are not always winners.

    Loved last year O and cant wait for this one.
