The four categories are:

1. Professional Bodybuilding Professional bodybuilding is the category that appeals to individuals who desire to qualify, compete and win titles in competitions. The beginning level of competitions is the amateur level. At the amateur level they can begin earning points and, hopefully, qualify for entry in major and professional competitions.

The IFBB (International Federation of Bodybuilding) is the top-rated organization for professional bodybuilders worldwide. Amateurs who win official competitions have the opportunity to receive their IFBB pro card. Once a bodybuilder becomes a pro he or she will be ineligible to enter any future amateur contests. But, they are usually welcomed for guest posing.

2. Natural Bodybuilding Some drugs and other substances, such as steroids, are illegal and their use has been banned from competitions for professional bodybuilders. However, making them illegal and banning them has not eliminated their use. Bodybuilders who continue to use them are highly criticized for their actions.. Because of this controversy, bodybuilding competitions are classified according to natural and open competitions. All entrants in a natural competition will be administered a drug test. This testing is done to ensure that the competitors will square off fairly.
