Episode Description from the Publisher

This week, we’re joined by ICN Queensland and ICN India President Jay Acharya for an honest look at where natural bodybuilding within ICN is heading. We unpack the major changes already being implemented across ICN Queensland, including improved judging feedback, streamlined show formats, clearer category standards and a stronger focus on year-round drug testing. Jay also takes us behind the scenes of India’s rapidly growing natural bodybuilding scene, where individual shows are attracting hundreds of athletes, before sharing what is planned for Dubai Worlds and the future of ICN internationally. From building genuine professional pathways to creating a better experience for athletes, coaches and spectators, this conversation offers plenty of insight into the future of the federation and the sport as a whole. Enjoy!
