Today we can list five bodybuilders of the U.S.S.R. who were most famous since 1970 until 1980. That were representing famous „Vilnius Bodybuilding School“ LEONAS PIVORIUNAS (his trainer was CESLAV TAMULEVIC, 1946 - 2021), VLADIMIR DUBININ (Владимир Дубинин, R.S.F.S.R., Leningrad, was training himself), representing „Vilnius Bodybuilding School“ PRANAS MURAUSKAS ((his trainer was CESLAV TAMULEVIC) and two Estonians - OLEV ANNUS and INDREK OTSUS. Both were trained by INNAR MARDO (1945 – 2002).

BODYBUILDING CIRCUS AROUND THE WORLD.

LOTS OF MICKEY-MOUSE FEDERATIONS.

WE SPEAK WITH ATHLETES.

Forty years ago we were explaining athletes about official sport and about the BASIC questions of various federations. This is ABC of every athlete. Do not be dreamers and learn real matters. As we see many do not like the truth. Sportsmen waist their time, energy, money. They are glad about their “great” achievements at competitions. But - this result for official sport is ZERO. Find yourselves who is guilty  - maybe your leaders, maybe trainers, maybe somebody else.

STEP ONE. INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION.

We do not want to offend anybody. All of today working forty International bodybuilding federations play zero role in official recognized sport. That are “mickey - mouse” federations. Just ZERO. Official International Sport organizations do not recognize a single one of them. Let us speak about some of those “federations”. What do You know about Your federation? Since 1990 we came inside of many International Bodybuilding Organizations. Step by step we learned about their zero value in sport. Athletes were cheated and still are cheated.

I.F.B.B. (International Federation of Body Builders)

Due to efforts of American BOB HOFFMAN (Robert Collins Hoffman, 1898 – 1985) since 1947 until 1969 World’s official bodybuilding sport was ruled by a member of the International Olympic Committee (I.O.C.) International F.I.H.C. (Fédération Internationale Haltérophile et Culturiste) federation.

In 1970 general secretary of F.I.H.C. British OSCAR STATE (Oscar State, Obe, 1911-1984) during Belgrade (Yugoslavia) Congress created the I.F.B.B. sport federation. Until that time I.F.B.B. was a private company and played zero role in official sport. Again due to the efforts of OSCAR STATE in 1971 I.F.B.B. became a member of G.A.I.S.F. (Global Association of International Sports Federations) and ruled World’s official bodybuilding sport until 1998.

In 1998 after two years trial I.F.B.B. was thrown out of the I.O.C.. Since that time bodybuilding is no more sport. Only former Communist Countries and several Asia Countries still recognize and finance National I.F.B.B. federations. Full article about the I.F.B.B. You can find on International Site www.wff.lt

N.A.B.B.A. (National Amateur Body Building Association).

After long correspondence with N.A.B.B.A. Chairman OSCAR HEIDENSTAM we were working with N.A.B.B.A. since 1991 until 2005. After some time N.A.B.B.A. Chairman IVAN DUNBAR informed us that N.A.B.B.A. is not an association of federation - it is by law a public club. How officially registered in Lithuania Republic sport federation can be a member of a public club? Sounds childish… After death of OSCAR HEIDENSTAM in 1991 until now N.A.B.B.A. had no another leader like him. Full article about N.A.B.B.A. is already published on International Site www.wff.lt

W.F.F. (World Fitness Federation).

In 1995 DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS, German KLAUS HOFFMANN (Klaus P.J.Hoffmann), Austrian PETER PAPULA, Greek ANARGIROS TSOPOURIDIS came to Germany where they established World Fitness Federation (W.F.F. - International). Power zones were set up - KLAUS HOFFMANN took the leadership on the “Western” countries and DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS went on leading “East” countries. DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS  brought former socialist countries in the game. Supported by the Government Republic Lithuania in 1996, 1997, 1998 DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS organized European Championships in Klaipeda, Vilnius and Palanga. At that time there was no official registration of the W.F.F. federation - somehow KLAUS HOFFMANN was against it. The situation did not satisfy us. DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was closely working with the Ministry of Sport of the Lithuanian Republic. According the law we needed official registration. Virtual W.F.F. was nothing. Then in 1998 DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS registered official W.F.F. federation and organized the 1998 W.F.F. World Championship in Palanga (Lithuanian Republic). The championship was supported and financed by the Government Republic Lithuania. It was televised by “Eurosport” television. Step by step KLAUS HOFFMANN left the W.F.F. federation. In 2003 he told he can not organize International contests any more. Uniting both parts of the federation the full power of W.F.F. went to DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. Exceptional prestige of W.F.F. rose up after tremendous 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 W.F.F. World Championships which were held in Vilnius and Klaipeda (Lithuanian Republic). For example - at 2005 W.F.F. World Championship in Vilnius participated 742 athletes from 42 countries. Lithuania Parliament voted to finance 2008 W.F.F. Event in Klaipeda through the separate line in the Budget of the Republic Lithuania. All above mentioned championships were supported and financed by the Government Republic Lithuania. Seeing great growth of the W.F.F. federation KLAUS HOFFMANN stopped connection with the federation and in 2005 registered his own W.F.F. federation in Germany. This federation was closed in 2013.

GAMES OF GRAEME LANCEFIELD.

Several years ago appeared Australian GRAEME LANCEFIELD who was unknown to the International Sport Society. GRAEME LANCEFIELD used the name of W.F.F., our W.F.F. history (working since 1968, “Amber Prix International”, etc.). When we wrote that we will address the International Court, then GRAEME LANCEFIELD stopped using traditional W.F.F. history. But he uses W.F.F. name anyway. Still it is not clear if W.F.F. of GRAEME LANCEFIELD egzists by law or it is only his private games. Anyway there are many not educated athletes who do not know our sport history and who do not know anything about W.F.F. federation. This way GRAEME LANCEFIELD can play his games. Detailed articles about W.F.F. federation will be published in the third part of the “World Bodybuilding Encyclopedia” soon. Look for the information on International Site www.wff.lt .

N.A.C. (National Athletic Committee)

When in 2000 KLAUS HOFFMANN stopped working properly with W.F.F. federation in Germany, several people left German W.F.F. an then appeared N.A.C.. N.A..C. is National German organization. No official International or National Institutions recognize and support N.A.C.. N.A.C. has nothing to do with official sport. Working more that twenty years N.A.C. did nothing noticeable for our sport. All N.A..C. events were made in Europe only. Outside Europe nobody even heard of N.A..C.. Maybe somebody can say what are aims of N.A.C.??? In 2005 in Italy Chairmen N.A.C. addressed President W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. International (World Fitness Federation, World Bodybuilding Federation) DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. They wanted to cooperate activities. DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS refused - there was no future and no sense in that.

N.P.C. (National Physique Committee)

For many decades amateur bodybuilding in USA was ruled by A.A.U. (Amateur Ayhletic Union). Established in 1888 A.A.U. was a member of the International Olympic Committee (I.O.C.). In the USA even a member of G.A.I.S.F. (Global Association of International Sports Federations) I.F.B.B. (International Federation of Body Builders), federation could not fight against N.P.C.. Remember, in 1970 F.I.H.C. (Fédération Internationale Haltérophile et Culturiste)  General Secretary OSCAR STATE in Belgrade (Yugoslavia) created the I.F.B.B. sport federation. Until that time I.F.B.B. was a private company. Finally after discussion with I.F.B.B. President BEN WEIDER a member of A.A.U. JIM MANION left A.A.U. and established N.P.C. in 1983. This way N.P.C. escaped of doping control too. JIM MANION agreed with WEIDER brothers JOE and BEN this way - all World Amateur bodybuilding was ruled by I.F.B.B. of BEN WEIDER and Amateur bodybuilding in USA was ruled by N.P.C. of JIM MANION. At the same time N.P.C. was representing I.F.B.B. in USA. Professional bodybuilding was under JOE WEIDER. N.P.C. had been never recognized by any Official International Sport Organization. In 2015 after death of WEIDER brothers previous agreement had no more power and N.P.C. left the I.F.B.B. of Spanish RAFAEL SANTONJA. RAFAEL SANTONJA was thrown out of America and never appeared there any more. Fighting for money at the moment N.P.C. with it’s contests goes aggressively around the World pushing I.F.B.B. of RAFAEL SANTONJA out of the game.

W.A.B.B.A. (World Amateur Body Building Association).

Several years athletes of Lithuanian Republic participated at W.A.B.B.A. competitions. Lithuanians never organized a single W.A.B.B.A.  contest in the country. Collecting 2-3 athletes of other National federations W.A.B.B.A.  organizers used to go abroad to compete. In general there were no results in this activities.

W.A.B.B.A.  appeared in 1976 after in 1975 I.F.B.B. (International Federation of Body Builders) President BEN WEIDER because of sexual affairs threw away from his federation his Vice President and famous France bodybuilder SERGE NUBRET. Having no knowledge about International Sport requirements SERGE NUBRET registered only name and logo of W.A.B.B.A.. Nothing was serious and official. Our last information of W.A.B.B.A. is that it belongs to a protein shop of French FABIAN DE BECK. In fact in 1975 it was the first time I.F.B.B. was split and divided. SERGE NUBRET took out of I.F.B.B. a number of National Presidents and Athletes from Asia and Africa countries.

OTHER FEDERATIONS

Looking through 100 years history of bodybuilding we can make some conclusions.

During the last century several decades World was divided into Capitalist (Western) and Socialist (Eastern) parts. Both parts were separated by the “Iron Wall” and did not communicate in between anyway. Bodybuilders of both parts did not communicate too. Also have in mind that bodybuilding was prohibited in the Socialist World since 1973 until 1987.

When Socialist World was ruined in 1995 was created World Fitness Federation (W.F.F. - International) which took the leadership of bodybuilding in some Europe and former Socialist countries. Later International fitness and bodybuilding were separated and since that time fitness was ruled by W.F.F. - International and bodybuilding was ruled by the World Body Building Federation (W.B.B.F. - International).

During the last thirty years appeared about forty “International” bodybuilding federations led by ill minded people. For every clever bodybuilder is evident - if one is not afraid of doping control - there is with it’s law and finance problems in 1970 in Belgrade (Yugoslavia) by F.I.H.C.  (Fédération Internationale Haltérophile et Culturiste) General Secretary OSCAR STATE created International Federation of Body Builders (I.F.B.B.); when one do not want doping control - there is old traditional National Amateur Body Building Association (N.A.B.B.A.). Everything is clear as daylight - the three above mentioned organizations rule International bodybuilding and fitness. Why other bodybuilding federations needed? What are their aims? Seems like childrens game... These federations have never been recognized by any Governmental or International Sport Structure. Their work is of zero value. First we met this nonsense forty years ago when two bodybuilders of Estonian SSR went to Italy to participate at “Europe” Championship. After coming back they kept silence. The reason was - there were only several participants from two countries - Italy and Estonia. The organizer was a private person representing no federation. In 2000 - 2005 Lithuanian bodybuilders were participating at the contests of the International federation of homosexual bodybuilders (today bodybuilders of Republic Poland are active in this field). Ok, anyway we can understand organization like this. From time to time we hear about another misunderstanding - the International Federation of “natural bodybuilders”. Natural bodybuilders are like alcoholics without alcohol... Every day primitive bodybuilders are fooled and cheated.

Since 1999 Italians started to participate at International W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. contests. They organized Italian contest for many years and now they wanted to organize official International contests in Italy. We told them how to create official federation. Now they have logo, they have name and still there is no federation. Organizers of this Italian group used to fight in between. So this way for several years another “International” federation appeared in France. After another Italian fight ten years ago one more “International” federation appeared in Slovenia.

Bodybuilders have problems with brains?

Today many idiotic categories appeared at bodybuilding contests - like bikini, wellness... Whom you are fooling? It is women bodybuilding and be smart - it is bad women bodybuilding. You want to say it is fitness? No - fitness is without doping. All activities with doping is bodybuilding. Do not lie for yourself and for other people. Let these “bikinies” and “welness” bodybuilders participate together with a real bodybuilder... Nonsense - they are weak athletes and they have no chances to participate at normal bodybuilding contests successfully. This is the reason that “bikinies” appeared. With men’s bodybuilding situation is the same. For example - lazy bodybuilders do not train legs. For them we have “Men’s Physique” category. Participants are representing bodybuilding and in fact they are bad bodybuilders. No legs, no calves... In normal bodybuilding fight they have no chances... So what is the value of their wins? Nothing... Weak bodybuilders participate at contests of “mickey - mouse” federations and in “mickey - mouse” categories and they become champions. What is the value of their titles? Nothing... Is anybody really proud of this?

The 1978 "Amber Prix" Tournament – A Part of World Sports History Forgotten Truths

The 1978 Amber Prix International ("Amber Prix", "Янтарный приз"), held in Klaipėda, occupies a unique place not only in the history of Lithuanian bodybuilding but also in the history of bodybuilding throughout the Eastern Bloc. The event took place at a time when bodybuilding had been officially banned in the U.S.S.R. since 1973, and both athletes and organizers were subjected to continuous administrative pressure.

Despite these restrictions, the tournament's organizer, Dr. Edmundas Daubaras, chose not to accept the ban but to challenge it through active initiatives. In 1977, when Soviet authorities intensified measures against bodybuilding, most organizers throughout the U.S.S.R. withdrew from any public efforts to defend the sport. Dr. Daubaras remained one of the very few who openly continued this struggle.

The 1977 Amber Prix tournament became a rehearsal for an even more ambitious undertaking. Although the competition lacked official governmental approval, the event in Klaipėda attracted a full audience, demonstrating that bodybuilding had retained strong public support despite the official prohibition.

Preparing for the 1978 tournament, Dr. Daubaras drafted a petition defending bodybuilding and personally delivered it in Moscow to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the Supreme Soviet of the U.S.S.R., the Council of Ministers of the U.S.S.R., and the editorial offices of the national newspapers Pravda and Izvestia. The purpose of the petition was to defend bodybuilding and to create conditions under which competitions could once again be organized.

Following these efforts, the 1978 Amber Prix tournament was held in Klaipėda. Dr. Daubaras went even further by presenting the event under the symbolism of the U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Championships. Such a decision involved considerable risk, since no official bodybuilding championships were being organized in the Soviet Union at that time.

A Unique Competition Stage

An analysis of photographs from bodybuilding competitions held throughout the Soviet Union between 1965 and 1978 shows that the stage design of the 1978 Amber Prix was unmatched in both scale and artistic execution.

At the center of the stage stood a monumental decoration depicting three-time Mr. Olympia Frank Zane against the outline of the map of the Soviet Union, accompanied by the inscription "U.S.S.R. Championship." Along both sides of the stage stood the flags of all fifteen Soviet republics. The medals, diplomas, and trophies also bore the inscription "U.S.S.R. Championship."

No previous bodybuilding competition in the Soviet Union had displayed such symbolism or such an ambitious stage presentation.

Organized Without Government Support

The tournament received neither government funding nor commercial sponsorship.

The entire organizational effort rested on Dr. Edmundas Daubaras, members of his family, and athletes from his sports club. Visiting competitors were accommodated at the Railway Workers' Pioneer Camp in Giruliai before the beginning of the summer season.

The enormous stage backdrop was sewn by Dr. Daubaras' mother-in-law, while Belarusian artist Oleg Isaev created its artistic design according to Dr. Daubaras' concept. The trophies were secretly manufactured after working hours by Klaipėda bodybuilder Oleg Serov, while the medals and diplomas were produced by employees of the Klaipėda Art Combine. Most organizational expenses were paid personally by Dr. Daubaras.

International Recognition

In 2011, during an official reception at the Vatican, Dr. Edmundas Daubaras, President of the World W.F.F.–W.B.B.F. Federation, presented the federation's activities to representatives of the Holy See.

During his meeting with Cardinal Jozef Tomko, the discussion focused on the history of bodybuilding under Soviet rule. Dr. Daubaras' efforts to defend the banned sport were recognized as a significant example of civic resistance to the restrictions imposed by the communist regime.

In recognition of his contribution to the development of health promotion and professional sport, Dr. Daubaras was awarded the Official Medal of the Pontificate of Pope Benedict XVI.

Conclusions

The 1978 Amber Prix tournament represented far more than a sporting competition. It became a public demonstration that the bodybuilding movement in the Soviet Union had survived despite its official prohibition.

The event proved that, even under conditions of centralized political control, it was possible to organize an international-level competition based on personal initiative, voluntary work, and the solidarity of the bodybuilding community.

From a historical perspective, the tournament marks one of the earliest successful public attempts to restore bodybuilding to organized sporting life in the Soviet Union. Its organizational scale, symbolic significance, and international character justify recognizing the 1978 Amber Prix as an important event in the history of world bodybuilding.

Further research based on archival documents, contemporary press sources, and international comparative studies may provide an even more comprehensive assessment of the tournament's place in twentieth-century sports history.

W.F.F. – International / W.B.B.F. – International

International Amateur "UNIVERSE" Championship

Overview of Overall Winners

(2000–2026)

During the twenty-seven-year period from 2000 to 2026, the W.F.F. – International / W.B.B.F. – International Amateur "UNIVERSE" Championship has established itself as one of the world's most prestigious events in amateur bodybuilding, fitness, and aerobic fitness. The results achieved over these years reflect not only the highest level of athletic excellence but also the significant contribution of many nations to the development of these sports.

Throughout this period, Overall Winner titles were won by athletes representing more than twenty countries from Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. The highest number of victories was achieved by athletes from Russia, while Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, Argentina, and Slovakia also ranked among the most successful nations. In recent years, Lithuania and Poland have emerged as the leading countries in the Championship.

In the Men's Overall category, Alexander Nevsky (Russia–USA) achieved an exceptional record by winning the Overall Champion title three consecutive times (2010–2012). This remains a unique achievement in the history of the Amateur "UNIVERSE" Championship.

In the Women's Overall category, Marina Burinskaja (Latvia), Yamila Vanessa Toledo (Argentina), and Olga Bogacz (Poland) each won two Overall titles. Olga Bogacz became the most recent repeat champion by securing consecutive victories in 2025 and 2026.

In the Aerobic Fitness Overall category, Jolanta Mileriūtė (Lithuania) and Alina Olefirenko (Ukraine) each captured the Overall title twice, becoming the most successful athletes in this discipline.

Lithuanian athletes have demonstrated remarkable consistency throughout the history of the Championship. During the 2000–2026 period, they won Overall titles in all three divisions—Men, Women, and Aerobic Fitness. Particularly impressive were the recent achievements: Gintarė Staliulionytė won the Aerobic Fitness Overall title in 2024, Marija Steponavičiūtė in 2023, Akvilė Šarkaitė in 2022, Karina Radziabova in 2021, and Piotr Ševčenko became the Men's Overall Champion in 2026. These results confirm the strength of the Lithuanian bodybuilding and fitness school and its ability to prepare athletes capable of competing successfully at the highest international level.

The 2026 Championship once again confirmed the dominance of the Baltic States and Poland. The Overall Champions were Piotr Ševčenko (Lithuania), Olga Bogacz (Poland), and Weronika Schreiber (Poland). Their victories reflect the current trends in international amateur bodybuilding and fitness and demonstrate the growing competitiveness of athletes from this region.

Conclusions

During the period from 2000 to 2026, the Amateur "UNIVERSE" Championship maintained its position as one of the most prestigious international events in amateur bodybuilding, fitness, and aerobic fitness. Overall Champions represented more than twenty countries, demonstrating the truly international character and global reach of W.F.F. – International and W.B.B.F. – International. Although Russian athletes accumulated the highest number of Overall titles, the last decade has clearly been marked by the rapid rise of Lithuania, Poland, and the other Baltic countries. Alexander Nevsky remains the only athlete in Championship history to win the Men's Overall title three consecutive times. Lithuanian athletes have established an outstanding legacy within W.F.F. – International / W.B.B.F. – International by consistently winning Overall titles across different divisions and strengthening the international prestige of the organization. The results of the 2026 Championship confirm that the Baltic States and Poland are currently among the strongest regions in international amateur bodybuilding and fitness.
