In addition to the three rounds that are part of every amateur bodybuilding contest, the Super Max Open Cup Tournament included a fourth challenge round, which is typical of the professional bodybuilding, and which was specially for the audience.

The event was attended by top German bodybuilder, Marcus Ruhl, who took the breaths of the Bulgarian audience.

The bodybuilding contest has been organized by the Bulgarian Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation, and sponsored by Super Max, the world’s second largest shaving products producer.

The Super Max Manager for Eastern Europe, Rossi Mladenov, has expressed the company’s intention to turn the open bodybuilding cup tournament into an annual event.
