We plan to add Wellness to our show
THE DIFFERENCE 1: BIKINI or WELLNESS
OCB doesn’t allow crossovers between categories, so you cannot compete in both in the same show.
How do you know which is a better fit for you?
The biggest difference between Bikini and Wellness is symmetry. Wellness athletes have a more developed lower half of the physique relative to the upper body. Bikini and Figure athletes should have symmetry between the upper and lower halves of the physique. There are more differences, of course, but symmetry is the criteria that best distinguishes Wellness from the other categories offered in the OCB
We encourage you to read through the judging criteria and guidelines, and watch the posing tutorials that are available on OCBONLINE.COM to learn more.

OCB BIKINI POSING UPDATE:
OCB will accept the bikini front pose shown here. While in this pose, the athlete’s number must be visible to the judges. Athletes should place their number buttons on the hip that will face the judges.
The hand not rested on the hip must be relaxed along the side of the body, not extended. The extension of the opposing arm gets in the way of other athletes, covers their physiques, and creates space issues on stage.
In the back pose, elbows and lats should not be spread apart. Feet should be placed approximately hip width apart.
Suit bottoms must cover areas where the glutes / cheeks touch. Thongs are not permitted. Suit bottoms should be glued in place if they cannot stay in a position that offers adequate coverage.

Coming off the heels of 2020, the OCB was determined to make 2021 magical. The season started with a lot of uncertainty, obstacles, and restrictions, yet we were able to successfully host over 70 contests. We also implemented a new and improved judging program, initiated random and targeted drug testing of pro athletes, and awarded $100,000 in cash prizes. Every athlete was polygraph tested, every pro card winner and cash prize winner in every show was urine tested and provided with their official lab results.

At the organization's expense, we collectively urine tested 414 amateurs and 73 pros.

Cumulatively, we had...
▪️24 polygraph failures
▪️11 urinalysis failures (2 cleared through IRMS testing)
▪️1 failure from targeted urinalysis testing of a pro athlete
As the largest natural bodybuilding organization in America, we encounter and test more bodybuilding competitors than anyone! This is a huge responsibility that we do not take lightly. In 2021, OCB spent over $50,000 on urine testing alone, more than any other organization. We back our promises to you not just through our words, but though our policies, consistent practices, and our pockets.

As we reflect on 2021, we are proud to say that we fulfilled our promises and commitments to the OCB community...as we always have and always will.
See you in 2022!

💥OFFICIAL💥The OCB has been considering and evaluating the pros/cons of adding Wellness to our events for several years. After much discussion and after surveying our athletes, we have opted to add it to some OCB events starting in 2022.
Here are some factors we took into consideration:
1. Some women naturally have a more muscular and dominant lower half that will not be rewarded in bikini. Developing their upper bodies to attain symmetry from top to bottom is not a look they genetically can achieve due to bone structure, and in some cases, it's not the desired look they want to achieve.
2. What women consider to be the ideal physique among the general public varies from person to person and has evolved over the decades. The same is true in the fitness industry. The addition of Wellness is our acceptance of a body type that has traditionally not been rewarded in bodybuilding, but it is one that we believe should have its rightful place.
Guidelines and criteria are posted on 🔗OCBONLINE.COM
Feel free to reach out with any questions. We are excited for all of you!

Competed in my 2nd OCB Bodybuilding competition last month. It’s taken me a few weeks to post pictures. I won my Bikini Open Pro Card and it’s still hard for me to believe I actually won. So much hard work and discipline goes into this sport and I am beyond proud that I can say I actually did it! Maybe next year I will compete with the pros! 🏆 👙 👠
