OCB Drug Testing Guidelines
Competitors cannot have used any substances listed below during
the duration periods specified. Participants are required to pass polygraph screenings prior to competitions (polygraph test results from
amateur OCB shows can be honored for
other amateur OCB shows held within
six weeks from the contest where testing took place.
Polygraph test results from other amateur all-natural
federations, other than OCB, can possibly be honored, but
only in circumstances where the polygraph examiner who
conducted the testing sends verification to OCB, or where
the conducting examiner's name and contact information are
supplied to OCB for OCB to be able to verify testing took
place and what results were in advance). Pros
are required to be polygraph tested for every OCB Pro show, regardless
of how recently they may have been tested elsewhere. In addition to polygraph testing, pro-qualifying placement
winners at amateur events, and cash-prize placement winners
in pro divisions, must pass a urine test.
Polygraph screenings are used since events are seven-years drug-free for many substances (read all about what's involved with polygraph testing). Most anabolic steroids and other banned substances are no longer detectable in urine within a month or two from last use, and growth hormone is not detected in routine sports panel urine testing. Note: If you think Bikini competitors don't use banned substances, think again. Approximately half of the competitors who don’t pass the polygraph test at OCB contests are Bikini competitors. Drug use is not always about gaining maximum muscle size. Certain banned substances, which are more popular among females, can yield an unfair advantage with getting leaner and shapelier more easily.

Any athletes with muscle implants are considered ineligible for OCB events indefinitely.
