What Drug-Tested Means Here

NPC Better Bodies Natural 2026 is a drug-tested NPC national qualifier. Competitors are subject to the NPC's testing protocols for tested shows, which is what separates it from an open show where no testing is conducted.

If you are looking for a natural or tested bodybuilding competition in Texas, this is the show on our calendar that qualifies. The testing standards, banned-substance list and procedures are set by the NPC, not by the promoter — read them at the source before you enter:
