An all-natural body building competition took over a Winnipeg stage on Saturday. At the Berney Theatre, 31 competitors showed off their stuff.
It was the competition's first time in Winnipeg.
The goal of this body building fitness competition was to promote natural body building and fitness without the use of performance enhancement drugs.
Tracy Kuhmyr says she got in to fitness training and body building after losing a good chunk of the 242 pounds (109.8 kilograms) she used to weigh. She says she’s on board with the competition's goals.
"The difference between the way a natural athlete looks in the body building world and someone who may be taking an advantage, we look very different," she said.
Organizers say the event is still in the growing stages they'll be back next year looking for even more competitors.
