Its not helping the sport thats for sure.

Should have one big organisation like the IFBB.

It's a bit like boxing,I guess? There are only two in the UK though-NPA and BNBF,both very succesful.

Because all have different ideas of what is "natural". To some, natural means clean for 6 months, to some lifetime.

Some "naturals" are not really tested at all, some have piss tests, some have psychiatrists asking questions, some both.

There's really too much scamming and putting juicers up as naturals in some of the organisations i think.

OCB is trying to bring all the organizations together and provide one strong alliance, Some have been cooperative others are staying to themselves.

The natural pro organizations accept eachother's pro cards unlike the IFBB. So I guess it doesn't really matter whether or not there's more than one amateur organization.
