Not following Natenator. If you contact the wnso directly they can probably answer your questions best.
As you see from steve_d out of competition tests are done as are 100s of urine tests.

I suspect most "testing" done in these types of shows are visual tests only.
I didn't say they were 100s of urine tests. In fact, the first fame show we ever did, in which greg won the overall, we were waiting and waiting to get drug tested. We were used to the standards of the cbbf, which at the time tested the top 3 in each class at the world qualifier. So, after hours and hours, and everyone gone, it looked like we weren't needing to be tested.Quote:

There was only 1 fame show I did, where they actually escorted you out to pee somewhere. So, all and all, I can never be sure how good fame tests were. Maybe they were, maybe they weren't. But I do know greg had been "randomly selected" for just about every fame show he did. Funny how even the shows he lost he would be the one they tested. Probably because he was the one guy up there that they were sure was clean seeing as how he was passing drug test after drug test in powerlifting and bodybuilding shows.
steve_d is also spreading rumors that are just that, rumors. if you want to know the truth go to the source. people who got banned for competing based on drug use, and those who did not place where they wanted, often have plenty of fingers to point. So check the source to see what you're assuming is correct is actually factual.
Yes, that is true too...Although, they weren't that great at visually testing seeing as how the worst gyno acne infested guys were still getting on stage.Quote:

lol. good one steve. it seems you're digging yourself deeper. first you write 100s of tests, then you say that greg is the only one who ever gets tested. and the reason you gave, do you think it makes sense? wouldn't it be more advantageous for an organization that is so adamant against drug use to test those who they suspect.
Natonator all athletes agree to the WNSO drug testing protocols which includes out-of-competition testing which must be adhered by.

I've beaten guys who were clean, and i've got beaten by guys who are clean.
Again, for the guys just starting out, compete wherever. It won't matter in the end. If you are good enough to be an ifbb pro, than you likely won't ask "where to compete" you'll already know where, and that's with CBBF.
Re-read what I wrote. I said greg passed 100 of fame tests. It was an exageration on the fact that he was always tested by fame. I didn't say fame gave out 100 tests each show. OH, unless you count the show we did where 100 voice stress tests (that are "80%" effective - although all 100 people passed). You don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure out the flaw in that.Quote:

At my last Pro show with them I was the only one tested and passed. They then asked me to drive to Halifax on easter weekend and show up at a lab to do a Random test in case I was planning to compete at the worlds that year. I said I was not going to compete at WNSO worlds and was not going to drive the distance on my $ on easter weekend for nothing. So them they said I could not compete with them anymore after that. Funny it coincided with them bouncing a 500$ cheque to me. If u look back I won there worlds that year at 170 lbs. Funny how I jsut recently added 15 lbs of muscle now but not them hmm wonder why. Must have been bad juice back then right.
Sure wish they tested the overall winner the 2 times I lost a motorcycle to that person funny how I was tested and not them. Funny how they said it would look bad for TV if the guy winning the bike failed the test. I know all the facts so stay away from them. Ask the other top competitors why they no longer compete with them (Both male and female).
....but is FAME a good organization to compete in?
