         winner.                           Muscular Men’s Physique, Derryck Clarke from
                                           Barbados was first.
                                             The most popular of the men’s categories was
                                           Classic Physique, as is customary in almost all
                                           events. The winner of Classic Bodybuilding was
                                           Jahvarie Johnson from Jamaica. In women’s Bikini,
                                           Barbados shone especially, showing that in the short
                                           class the first 3 were from this country, Mikhaila
                                           Farie being gold. In the tall class, with no less than 10
                                           athletes, the level was much more complicated,
                                           being the athlete from Antigua & Barbuda Makiva
                                           Elvin who won her size and also the overall.
                                             In Bodybuilding, we were able to attend the duel
                                           of less than 70 kilos between the athletes from
                                           Barbados Sanaj Lewis and Curtis Kirby that made
                                           the former the winner and leaving Curtis a silver
                                           medal. In less than 80 kilos, the champion was the
                                           veteran athlete from Barbados, Hoskyn Worrell;
                                           huge, immense, with the best back in the
                                           competition, although with legs that could be
                                           improved. At less than 90 kilos, Nicholas Albert from
                                           Guyana was the best version of what it means to
                                           have genetics for the sport of bodybuilding. He was
                                           large, proportionate, with a minimal waist, pumped
                                           up arms and shoulders. Perhaps he could have
                                           pushed more in his definition and that was what
                                           made him not win the overall. In the heavyweight
                                           class, it was the Mexican Jose Armando Felix who,
                                           unquestionably, swept the heavyweight and
                                           prevailed in the Overall. Big, shredded, hard, without
                                           any muscle failure, he prevailed resoundingly.
