Welcome

Welcome to the new IFBB-MALTA website.

This site will be keeping you up-to-date in the bodybuilding scene locally and also from the international scene.

A Message from the President Mario Pace

After four years at the helm of the federation (IFBB MALTA) I would like to share some thoughts with you. On sports and lifestyle as I like to call it, should be more popular. To invest in your body is the best thing you can do. It is more than just bodybuilding, it is a excellent way to keep fit & healthy.
If you think you would like to go further, and compete, one can enter for example the Classic bodybuilding category. This is a relatively new category, and it can be reached by alot of bodybuilders. It is a bit different than bodybuilding as we know it today. Itis not just size but a more less muscular and more aesthetic look. This category also includes four different height classes.
I encourage our members to promote our sport and encourage others to try it and get involved. Invite them to your gym and promote bodybuilding as a excellent way to stay healthy. To those who are more eager to succeed, there is the traditional to very hardcore bodybuilding.
To win a title with the IFBB-MALTA or at least place in the top six, is a dream for alot of bodybuilders, but it is not something out of reach, the right training and determination is the key to success. For those who have competed already can understand what I mean. Is is also very good to compete abroad with the IFBB, it is the highest level of any bodybuilding federation, and you will be on stage with the best in the world.
I hope these few thoughts make you understand and appreciate our sport of bodybuilding. I wish success to all our members and also encourage others to join us.
Mario Pace
President
IFBB-MALTA
