GLOBAL TELEVISION C.N.N. PRESENTED W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. TO A BILLION PEOPLE WORLD WIDE.
FOREIGN MINISTRY REPUBLIC LITHUANIA WORKS WITH W.F.F.-W.B.B.F..
Today the International Federation W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. (World Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation) unites 141 Country-Members from all Continents. Every year W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. holds over 60 International Events in various Countries.
C.N.N. NEWS PRESENTED W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. TO A BILLION PEOPLE WORLD WIDE.
Some time ago the Global C.N.N. (Cable News Network) television made a special report on the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. events that were held in Klaipeda (E.U., Republic Lithuania) in May, 2017. That were the 50-th „Amber Prix International“ («Янтарный приз», «Gintarinis Prizas“, 1968-2024) and the 18-th „Universe“ contests. Due to this a billion (milliard) people World Wide had a possibility to see the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. International work.
C.N.N. is one of the World‘s most important International News Television Companies. We do not remember that C.N.N. ever reported about bodybuilding sport before. Positively reported... We are proud that the report was about the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. International Events, that had happened in Lithuania, European Union.
Before this the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. International also had a number of reports on other International Television Companies, such as „Eurosport“, „Sky News“ and many national televisions of various countries through the World.
FOREIGN MINISTRY REPUBLIC LITHUANIA WORKS WITH W.F.F.-W.B.B.F.
Receiving the information about the C.N.N. preparations to make a report from the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. International events in Lithuania, the Lithuania Republic Foreign Ministry officials addressed the International President DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS and assisted him in the common work with the C.N.N. television.
W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. ALWAYS WAS NON KOMMERCIAL SPORT ORGANIZATION.
During the sixty years of it‘s activities the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. always kept on the real sport side. Though there were various political and economical difficulties, the federation never stopped working on (read historical articles on the International Site www.wff.lt).
W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. athletes always had possibilities to seek the highest titles at the International recognized official contests. Historic statistics prove the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. is a prestigious International Federation among all federations. One can organize several successful competitions, but it is not the same as the fivty years of serious stable work. The power of the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. – sixty years of constant International Sport work.
Today the valuables of the mankind changed. For most people money means everything. No morality, only money and lies. The 3000 years lasting Bible Concept of Ruling Menkind is close to the end. Today most of International Sport Organizations are commercial. Even W.A.D.A. (World Anti Doping Agency) seeks profit and this is the reason that not every International Sport Organization can join W.A.D.A.. Such mentioned above organizations proclaim commerce, not sport. It is a theater of absurd now and we were writing about this many times before.
W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. will remain conservative and it will not follow other commercial sport organizations. W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. will remain on the real sport side and this is our priority.
In difference to other organizations W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. collaborates with the recognized International Sport Institutions, National Governmental Structures and representatives of all religions. All of them notice and valuate the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. activities. We see the W.F.F.-W.B.B.F. as a strong friendly unit and this is our power.

MODEL FITNESS - WHAT IS IT?
20 YEARS OF W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. MODEL FITNESS CATEGORY.
MODEL FITNESS VERSUS MODEL BODYBUILDING.
20 years ago W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. (World Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation) created “Model Fitness” categories at the International and National Contests. Since that time most International federations copied W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. in many innovating activities. During the time “Model Fitness” competitors became muscular and there was no difference from bodybuilders.
At the 2014 W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. World Amateur Championship in Slovakia many competitors were not allowed to participate at the Model Fitness Contest. The reason was their muscularity. Every year more and more muscular competitors try to attend Model Fitness Contests. W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. understands Model Fitness Competitors as a sportsmen without sharp and competitively big “doping looking” muscles.
Step by step W.F.F. federation divorces with W.B.B.F. - fitness goes away from bodybuilding. Until now W.F.F. and W.B.B.F. contests are held together but we will start making them separately too. Fitness is not bodybuilding. Remember - in 1998 I.O.C. (International Olympic Committee) refused to recognize bodybuilding as sport and the I.F.B.B. (International Federation of Body Builders) federation was “thrown out” from the recognized federations list. From that time bodybuilding is no more sport. Until now only former National I.F.B.B. federations of former Socialist Countries fool their Ministries of Sport and use to get governmental financial support. Soon the W.F.F. - International will sign the Contract with W.A.D.A. (World Anti Doping Agency).

BREAKING SPORT NEWS.
FIRST FITNESS FEDERATION WITHOUT DOPING.
Some time ago a new national fitness organization was registered in Lithuania. That is the “Lithuania Sport Fitness Federation” (L.S.F.F., “Lietuvos sportinio fitneso federacija”). In the nearest future federation will join the World Anti Doping Agency (W.A.D.A.) World Anti Doping Code. Federation declares fitness sport without doping. Federation invites representatives of all possible non doping fitness activities to join it.
Federation stands on position that real fitness sport is without doping when bodybuilding at the same time means total doping. In order to fool the sport society all bodybuilding federations use to hide themselves behind “fitness” name. They present various “fitness categories” which in real are doping bodybuilding categories and could not survive without doping.

DIRTY BODYBUILDING IN ESTONIA.
WORLD BODYBUILDING ENCYCLOPEDIA.
Today the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. (World Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation) International unites 140 Country – Members and organizes nearly 60 annual Amateur and Professional International Events World Wide. Looking from the juridical point of view the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. International is no doubt the Real World Bodybuilding Leader.
Crowning it‘s 60 years of International Bodybuilding activities, the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. works on the Unique Global International Bodybuilding Project - the „World Bodybuilding Encyclopedia“ («Энциклопедия всемирного культуризма», “Pasaulio kultūrizmo enciklopedija”).
There will be four books of the Encyclopedia. The first book will cover period of time from the old times to 1973. The work on the Encyclopedia goes on.
DIRTY BODYBUILDING IN ESTONIA.
INNAR MARDO (1946-2002; Inaras Mardo, Иннар Мардо) was the most important Estonia bodybuilding persons ever. Several days we were studying the thirty years lasting correspondence between the President of the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. International DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS (Др. Эдмундас Даубарас) and INNAR MARDO. INNAR MARDO was and still is the unique historical Estonia bodybuilding leader and the real soul of bodybuilding in Estonia. Twenty years ago INNAR MARDO presented to DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS historical documents on the Estonia International contest „Georg Tenno Memorial“ („Georgo Tenno Memorialas“, «Мемориал Георга Тенно», 1971 - 2025).
HAVING A WISH DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN DO IT.
Multiple letters of INNAR MARDO tell us about many unknown and forgotten facts and stories. We are surprised of the inner powewr of INNAR MARDO when his bodybuilders betrayed him and when many Estonian organizers treated him very badly. The reason is clear – they envyed him and his talent so much. We would like to underline that for several years best bodybuilders of the U.S.S.R. and Socialist countries were pupils of INNAR MARDO Estonians OLEV ANNUS and INDREK OTSUS. Both bodybuilders were winners of the most important International U.S.S.R. competitions – the „Amber Prix International“ („Gintarinis prizas“, «Янтарный приз», is still running, 1968 - 2025) and the „Georg Tenno Memorial“ (organized in 1971-2025). Also under the guidance of INNAR MARDO both bodybuilders won several International competitions in various Socialist countries.
Think of this - who are those bodybuilders and organizers without INNAR MARDO? In some cases the enemies of INNAR MARDO were successful and INNAR MARDO had to leave the National Estonia bodybuilding federation. By the way, Lithuanians were not very happy of the strong Estonia bodybuilding and helped the enemies of INNAR MARDO in their dirty works. The Lithuanians were led by ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS and some official from Kaunas city. Especially big fight against IONNAR MARDO was after the tenth „Georg Tenno Memorial“ But after this no one Estonia bodybuilding organizer ever reached the highness of the work done by INNAR MARDO. The level and inside power was very low of them.
In the “World Bodybuilding Encyclopedia” year after year we will speak about the activities of those above mentioned “heroes”. It is a pity that at the end of his life INNAR MARDO had no enough power to reach the previous hights of the glory of Estonia bodybuilding. The glory that was created by him – INNAR MARDO.
About these details we will speak in the second book of the Encyclopedia.
