FIT & FAB

In this sport, opinions are everywhere… but education is what earns respect.

Yesterday I attended the **World Judges Seminar 2026** were focused on all modalities with the International Fitness and Bodybuilding Federation.

Having traveled this road as a competitor myself.
I understand the dedication, sacrifice and discipline it takes to step on that stage. Athletes invest years building their physiques, trusting that the people guiding and judging them truly understand the sport.

That is why education matters.

Passion alone is not enough. As coaches, officials and leaders in this industry, it is our responsibility to keep sharpening our knowledge so we can guide, judge and support athletes with integrity.

Growth doesn’t stop once you reach a level.
Real professionals keep learning.

Different countries.
Different time zones.
But when it comes to elevating the standard of our sport… distance is never an excuse.

Study the sport.
Respect the sport.
Serve the sport.

And use what you learn to help the next athlete step on that stage better than the last. 💪🔥

Just saying thank you doesn't seem enough.
I hope you know how much your thoughtfulness is appreciated.

Thank You For Your Support.

Believe It.Achieve It.

Corey Springer has worked for 23 straight years (2000-2023) in the Fitness Industry. 

Initially specialising in acute body transformations (including contest prep, and photoshoot prep), custom programme design, and gourmet fitness meal-planning, he later shifted the emphasis of his practice to fill a void: Prehabilitative/Rehabilitative care, mobility and movement modalities. 

Having competed for 8 straight years (1999-2006), Locally and Regionally, he realised the need to address the myopic hypertrophy-hyperfocused model of fitness – for athlete longevity purposes.

He will be presenting on: "Mindful Mobility: Ripped, Not Wrecked."

Welcomes Ms Shanice Murray back to our panal of Presenters.

I have been a registered Nutritionist for approximately 5 years.

During that time I have gained experience in several areas as it pertains to nutrition.

To date, my favourite area is Sports Nutrition. Looking beyond transformations and fat loss and focusing on the intricacy of nutrition and how it impacts on sporting performance.

I’m excited to be presenting again this year at the 2023 Fit n Fab Seminar on the topic “What Your Muscles Really Need.... The Art and Science of Gaining and Shredding”

We welcome Ms Dionne Thompson
One of our returning Presenters , to give you a detailed breakdown on dealing with your finances especially in these economic times.

I am a CFO at a leading Mutual Funds Institution.
I have been competing for over five years.
My first show was the ABC Fitness Gym Show in 2015 as a bikini athlete. However, following that competition, I was encouraged to switch categories based on my structure and muscle mass.

I then competed on the National stage and after placing second (2nd), was selected for the Barbados team to represented the island at the 2015 CAC Games which was held in the Bahamas of the same year. I successfully won my category in my debut year and was essentially hooked thereafter. .

Following such a successful year I have represented Barbados at a number of Regional events from 2015- 2018. .

Covid came along and delayed all plans to return to stage until 2022. However 2022 was rewarding as I won my category at Barbados Nationals, my height category at CAC and earned my pro card.

I hope to share with the attendees the ways I budget and plan for shows based on my accounting knowledge , athlete experience and mistakes.

Looking forward to seeing you all there.
