The second annual Flex Night Berbice event, staged last Saturday evening at the Corentyne Comprehensive School in Port Mourant, was a thriller for the large and appreciative audience in attendance.
Organised by Flex Night Berbice coordinator, Raheem Ali, in collaboration with Flex Night Incorporated, the event attracted patrons from West Demerara, Georgetown, West Coast Berbice, New Amsterdam, Central and Upper Corentyne.
As expected, the Flex Night Berbice marked the on-stage debut for a number of male and female bodybuilders.
A release from Flex Night Incorporated stated, “Regardless of their placings (and some of the new bodybuilders did very well) these bodybuilders would have learnt valuable lessons which they will use as they climb the competition ladder to participate in the upcoming Flex Night International 2013, and in 2014 in the Berbice Flexouts, and GABBFF Novices and Seniors events.”
The event attracted male and female bodybuilders from the Berbice gyms: Fitness Zone, House of Pain Gym, Power Flex Gym, Skeldon Community Centre Gym and Windero Gym.
The most outstanding performances came from Windero Gym, whose athletes won the overall Mr. Flex Night Berbice (Teon Sancho); Miss Flex Night Berbice (Candacy Lynch) and Miss Flex Night Berbice Bikini (Janica Sandy).
There were two guest appearances; the first by Miss Flex Night 2012 Best Legs title holder, NadinaTaharally, of Interline Fitness Gym and the second by Eybo Orford of Buddy’s Gym.
There was also a mini-expo by two distributors of bodybuilding supplements- Gizmos and Gadgets which promoted their Fitness Factory and also sponsored the overall Mr. Flex Night Berbice trophy- and Poonai’s Pharmacy.
The release further stated, “During the intermission, bodybuilders took the opportunity to flock these distributors to learn more about the products available. Flex Night Incorporated is now concluding preparations for the publication of its second issue of the Flex Night Magazine and the second Flex Night International scheduled for Sunday December 8 at the National Cultural Centre.”
