Double the shows, double the sparkles. ✨

In this week’s episode, Chris and Rachel break down the first IFBB shows of the season: the NZIFBB Auckland Open Regional Championships and the NZIFBB Auckland Natural Championships.

From front-row judging insights to standout physiques, here’s what you’ll hear:

• Key differences between the Natural and Open lineups

• Conditioning trends the judges rewarded (and what they didn’t)

• Standout athletes across figure, wellness, bikini, and fit model

• The return of familiar faces (and mums making a strong comeback)

• Which athletes are already front-runners heading into Nationals

It’s the ultimate wrap-up to kick off the NZIFBB season.
