Message from the General Secretary, IBBF

A promising future awaits the Body Building sport in India

On behalf of the Indian Body Builders Federation (IBBF), I heartily welcome you all to this website. We have made all attempts to provide information of interest and value on this website - for body building aficionados and general sports enthusiasts alike.

I am sure we all agree that ‘Fit and Healthy‘ is a theme that is here to stay. The common men and women in India have shown increasing levels of interest in the need to be fit and healthy, drawing inspiration from a variety of sources - from the Government‘s ‘Fit India‘ campaign to the impressive sportspeople and celebrities on social media. Affordable solutions in the market have played their part too - from wearable technologies to easily accessible gyms to wide range of options in diets and balanced nutrition. The need to stay away from obesity, heart disease and the many complications possible have become more pronounced in the recent years.

As the apex body for bodybuilding sports in India, IBBF has been at the forefront of developing the sport and the enhancing the lives of the stakeholders associated with the sport - from athletes, office bearers, authorities, partners, and entrepreneurs etc. Since our recognition by the Hon‘ble Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, Government of India in 2012, we have covered significant distance and facilitated several milestones for the development of the sport in India. We are well set for more in the coming years - our website will publish regular updates, as relevant.

As the first woman General Secretary of the IBBF, I will drive an additional project that‘s very close to my heart - women empowerment. I will continue with IBBF‘s initiatives that seek to empower our women stakeholders - from athletes to officials. In addition, we are looking at newer initiatives to enhance the safe working setup for women and enable women to pursue their passion more confidently.

We are confident that Body Building and Physique Sports in India are at the cusp of rapid growth and a massive transformation in the coming years. We, at IBBF will leave no stone unturned to achieve our objectives and develop the sport. In the process, we look forward to working with our sponsors and officials of Affiliated State Associations/ UT‘s/ Sports Control Boards of body building and add value to the sport and its ecosystem.
