India Tour 2026

Musclemania® has been a major fitness brand show in India since it was
first broadcast on ESPN India over 30 years ago. Bringing natural
bodybuilding to the country for the first time, Musclemania® introduced
Indian bodybuilders to an alternative to chemically enhanced fitness
training. It gave hope and opportunity to new and veteran athletes that
they could be just as serious about their bodybuilding passion in a
wholesome and healthy way.
