Does anybody know how the drug testing works? I'd be competing in the open division. Clearly, by the pictures.. large majority of the competitors are not natural. The guy who just won the overall at the show I just did is doing team U and is 100% not natural lol.
I called the phone number on the website, they said they couldn't answer my questions.. they gave me the NPC headquarters number which i called but have not received a response yet.
Per the entry form, it states,
"The NPC Universe Men’s Bodybuilding Open Class Winners will be eligible to compete on Team USA at the 2015 IFBB World Championships after successfully passing urinalysis drug testing"
"Competitors in the open men’s bodybuilding will be subject to a urinalysis test administered in connection with the event to compete in
the IFBB World Championships. ONLY THE OPEN BODYBUILDING DIVISION WILL BE DRUG TESTED."
Now, I do not care about competing in the IFBB world Championships.. I cant. My job, I work 3 out of 4 weekends a month, not possible and I don't work a job where I can just take off.. I work in healthcare.
Somebody said they thought they heard there is an $1800 fine if you fail but the contract doesn't state that anywhere.
Does anybody no anything about this? Do you get your award stripped from you if you fail? I can't imagine any of these winners are passing a drug test.
