THE INBF - WHO WE ARE Founded in 2000, the INBF is the non-profit amateur affiliate of the World Natural Bodybuilding Federation (WNBF). The organization features the finest amateur natural bodybuilders, figure athletes and Ms. Fit Body competitors in the sport. Both the INBF and the WNBF require athletes to have been drug-free for a minimum of seven years. Every competitor is tested prior to competition via polygraph to ensure that they have complied with the extensive banned substance list. Subsequent urinalysis is required from athletes upon winning their class at INBF shows. The INBF & WNBF does not do random testing at events – each contest is fully tested. With affiliates in Switzerland, Italy, Australia, Germany, Japan, Canada and the Caribbean, the INBF is a worldwide organization. Several events are held in cooperation with the U.S. Military at bases throughout the United States, Germany, Iraq and Korea.
