6 to represent Guyana at CAC Bodybuilding C/ships

A formidable team of fitness athletes is set to depart for Aruba today (Wednesday) to represent Guyana at the 50th edition of the Central American and Caribbean (CAC) Bodybuilding and Fitness Championships.
According to a statement recently released by the Guyana Amateur Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation, the team comprises reigning two-time Mr Guyana (bodybuilding), Darious Ramsammy; three-time CAC silver medalist and six-time National Men’s Physique champion, Emmerson Campbell; reigning Ms. Bikini champion Hannah Rampersaud, along with last year’s CAC Bikini silver medalist Christina Ramsammy.

Podium dwellers at last year’s edition of the Championships in Barbados, Nicholas Albert, Rawle Green and Julio Sinclair, are also on the team.
The team is being managed by the GABBFF President Keavon Bess, who has said he is optimistic of the chances of the charges, who can emulate last year’s performances.
In 2022, the team bagged a record 12 medals. Collectively, the team secured five gold medals, six silver medals, and one bronze medal — the most by a national team at a single CAC Championship.
Remarkably, Rosanna Fung used her sharp physique to decimate the chances of the athletes in the wellness categories and secured the much coveted ‘Pro card. In so doing, the 23-year-old became the second female from Guyana and the first since 1979 to become a professional bodybuilding athlete.
Guyana is set to host the annual championships next year, after a successful bid in 2021 in El Salvador.
