THE ANB STORY
The Australasian Natural Bodybuilding Federation (ANB) was formed in 1983 by Robert Powell who was a young man who had a passion for all sports, especially sports that required strength training. In those days Robert owned supplement stores in Sydney.
Now more than two and a half decades later proudly having introduced numerous World and Australian Champions, we’re proud of our firmly structured organisation. Leading the way forward for our industry, we’re supporting our continually growing membership base. Focussed on creating a platform for athletes to achieve their goals and enabling them to create their own history.
Proud of our heritage and inspired by our future, as we continue to deliver sold out shows and with growing competitor numbers across competitions in every Australian state.
We have a firm and respected anti-drug policy where we will continue to support natural athletes as much as possible to give them an even playing field on stage.
All ANB athletes both amateurs and pros are qualified to join Team Australia at the DFAC worlds.
