In more ways than one the sport of bodybuilding is on an encouraging upward trajectory in Guyana. Current enthusiasm for the discipline derives in large measure from the contemporary fitness craze amongst Guyanese, a trend which, in the last decade, has triggered a marked increase in investment in gymnasia.
The sport of bodybuilding itself has benefitted from the direction in which the industry has moved. The overall significant gravitation of the current wave of fitness fanatics to gymnasia in parts of coastal Guyana has been attended by a growth of interest in bodybuilding as a competitive pursuit. That interest, has contributed to the development of the sport itself and in the expansion in the number of categories that exist in the sport today.
