RE: WORLD BODYBUILDING HISTORY. HOW IT WAS IN REAL - WFF_WBBF_Official - 01-06-2023

WORLD BODYBUILDING HISTORY.
1988. FIRST OFFICIAL U.S.S.R. BODYBUILDING CUP.
BACKGROUND.
We started working on the second part of the „World Bodybuilding Encyclopedia“ („Pasaulio kultūrizmo enciklopedija“, «Энциклопедия мирового культуризма»). The book will cover the time since 1973 until 1991. In 1973 the bodybuilding sport was prohibited and prosecuted in the Socialist Countries. In 1991 the Socialist System was ruined.
Looking from the point of view of the Communist regime about twenty years bodybuilding was on illegal position in the Socialist Countries. Being afraid many organizers and bodybuilders stopped the activities. Only two regular traditional contests were organized in the U.S.S.R.. That were the „Georg Tenno Memorial („Georgo Tenno Memorialas“, «Мемориал Георга Тенно», Tallinn, Estonian SSR, 1971 - 1989) and the „Amber Prix International“ („Gintarinis prizas“, «Янтарный приз», Klaipeda, Lithuanian SSR, 1968 - 2022). The organizer of the „Georg Tenno Memorial“ was INNAR MARDO (Иннар Мардо, 1946 – 2002) and the organizer of the organizer of the „Amber Prix“ was DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. All other Socialist Countries did not organize the traditional International competitions. Later during the „MIKHAIL GORBACHOV Perestrojka“ (Перестройка) the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Sport (Goskomsport, Госкомспорт С.С.С.Р.) recognized the „Amber Prix International“ as the unofficial U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Championship. Then the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Sport started presenting to the Champions of the „Amber Prix International“ the honourable titles of the „U.S.S.R. Sport Master“Мастер спорта С.С.С.Р.).
To set the official U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation in 1987 the U.S.S.R. Congress of bodybuilders was organized in Kubenka city (near Moscow, Russian Federation). To the position of the President was elected an Olympic Weightlifting Champion JURIJ VLASOV (Олимпийский чемпион Юрий Власов).
In 1988 in Leningrad (Russian Federation) the first official „U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Cup“ Кубок С.С.С.Р. по культуризму») was held. The contest was recognized by the U.S.S.R. Government. National teams on many Socialist Countries participated at the event.
1988. U.S.S.R. FIRST OFFICIAL BODYBUILDING CUP.
The contest was held in the prestigeous Leningrad City Palace „Oktiabrskij (дворец „Октябрьский», Ленинград). The delegates and the athletes lived in the superious hotels. The Champions of the first supported by the Government „U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Cup“ («Кубок С.С.С.Р. по культуризму») were the known bodybuilders:
STANISLAV POLIAKOV (Станислав Поляков, Riga, Latvian SSR; trained by FELIKS SAJKOVSKIJ – Феликс Сайковский)
VALERIJ BOGDANOVIC (Валерий Богданович, Minsk, Belorussian SSR; prepared without a trainer)
SAULIUS MISEVICIUS (Kaunas, Lithuanian SSR, prepared without a trainer)
VIKTORAS JUCYS (Klaipeda, Lithuanian SSR; trained by DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS).
The Over All Champion of the 1988 U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Cup was VIKTORAS JUCYS.
WHAT IS OFFICIAL RECOGNIZED FEDERATION. TRAINER OF CHAMPION.
During the last years appeared many “new federations” which fool sportsmen. No International organizations recognize them and their activities mean nothing to the sport. Basing on the former background Ministries of Sport of the former Communist Countries still finance national I.F.B.B. federations. Until bodybuilding sport due to the efforts of BOB HOFFMAN was ruled by the F.I.H.C. (F.I.H., Federation Internationale Halterophile) which is an I.O.C. (I.O.C., International Olympic Committee) member; until bodybuilding sport due to the efforts of WEIDER brothers JOE and BEN was ruled through the Membership in G.A.I.S.F. (“General Association of International Sports Federations”) – bodybuilding was a recognized and respected sport. Forget the official bodybuilding after during the last years I.F.B.B. two times was divided (2008, 2015). Only seeking money and fighting for profit is left. Last President of I.F.B.B. RAFAEL SANTONJA finally ruined the sport. In 2022 W.A.D.A. stopped working with I.F.B.B.. About other “federations” better to keep silence – it is only humor…
So, recognized and supported by the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Sport (“Госкомспорт С.С.С.Р.») the U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation organized the first official “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Cup” in Leningrad (Russian Federation) in 1988. The U.S.S.R. Ministry of Sport presented respectable titles of the “U.S.S.R. Master of Sport” for the Winners of this contest and gave medals and diplomas for the trainers of the Champions. Among them was the trainer of the Over All Champion DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. 
KALINAUSKAS MAKES PROBLEMS FOR BODYBUILDERS AGAIN.
All Champions of the first “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Cup” were included to the U.S.S.R. National Team. Two bodybuilders of the Lithuanian SSR were among them. That were VIKTORAS JUCYS and SAULIUS MISEVICIUS. The team had to participate at the I.F.B.B. World Championship in Australia. Everybody had to receive special “foreign” passports and Australia visas. The U.S.S.R. National Team was led by the delegation of officials. The General Secretary of the U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS (Романас Калинаускас) was not included to the delegation to Australia. He was responsible to prepare “foreign passports” and Australia visas for the Lithuanian bodybuilders. ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS was angry about being not included to the delegation to Australia. He stopped the passports of VIKTORAS JUCYS and SAULIUS MISEVICIUS. Bodybuilders arrived to the airport and waited for the passports. The passports did not come…

WORLD BODYBUILDING ENCYCLOPEDIA.
1987 INTERNATIONAL CONTEST „WHITE NIGHTS“.
Preparing the 2-d book of the „World Bodybuilding Encyclopedia“ (Энциклопедия всемирного культуризма») we will publish some separate historical articles of that time (1973 – 1991).
To participate as a guest at the 1986 historic „Amber Prix International“ («Янтарный приз», “Gintarinis prizas”, 1968 – 2022, Klaipeda, Republic Lithuania) DSC. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS (Др. Эдмундас Даубарас) invited from Leningrad (Russian Federation) a former famous U.S.S.R. bodybuilder VLADIMIR DUBININ (Владимир Дубинин). After loosing at the 1974 „Georg Tenno Memorial“ («Мемориал Георга Тенно», 1971 – 1989, Tallinn, Estinian SSR) VLADIMIR DUBININ stopped participating at competitions and did not appear at the International events. When the 1986 „Amber Prix International“ ended the VIP International bodybuilding persons came together to the appartments of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS in Klaipeda. The reason was to discuss the plans of the future development of bodybuilding sport in the U.S.S.R. and Socialist Countries and to start the new U.S.S.R. Bodybuildin Federation. At the meeting participated: a well known U.S.S.R. bodybuilder VLADIMIR DUBININ, since 1975 representing Russian Federation at the International events VLADIMIR SUBOV (Владимир Шубов, Moscow), 1985-1986 International contest organizer in Ukraine ARKADIJ KASANSKIJ (Аркадий Кашанский, Charkov, Ukrainian SSR) and the historic „Amber Prix“ organizer DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. At that time DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was the only one among the U.S.S.R. bodybuilding leadres who perfectly knew several foreign languages. Also foreign situation was discussed as DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was in touch with the I.F.B.B. (International Federation of Body Builders) President BEN WEIDER, the  W.A.B.B.A. (World Amateur Body Building Association) President SERGE NUBRET (Serge Nubret) and the N.A.B.B.A. (National Amateur Body Building Association) President OSCAR HEIDENSTAM.  
Note: during the prohibition of bodybuilding in the U.S.S.R. and Socialist Countries the „Amber Prix International“ was the only one regularly organized International Bodybuilding competition in the Socalist World. Later the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Sport (U.S.S.R. Goskomsport, Госкомспорт С.С.С.Р.) recognized the „Amber Prix“ as the „unofficial U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Championship“ (неофициальный чемпионат С.С.С.Р. по культуризму) and started presenting to the „Amber Prix“ Champions the title of the „U.S.S.R. Sport Master“ («Мастер спорта С.С.С.Р).
At the 1986 International meeting in Klaipeda participants discussed the starting of the new U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation“Федерация С.С.С.Р. по культуризму»). VLADIMIR DUBININ preposed the organize in Leningrad the International „White nights“ contest along with the „Amber Prix International“ and „Georg Tenno Memorial“.
„WHITE HIGHTS“.
In 1987 VLADIMIR DUBININ organized the International „White Nights“ competition as it was decided in Klaipeda. The contest was held at the still prestigeous in Russia  „Leningrad Palace Oktiabrskij“ («Дворец Октябрьский»). Bodubuilders of various U.S.S.R. republics participated at the event. The Category Winners were NIKOLAJ MALYSEV (Николай Малышев,  Russian Federation), PAVEL KOSENKO (Павел Косенко, Estonian SSR), BORIS RAJEV (Борис Раев, Leningrad, Russian Federation), the pupil of Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS bodybuilder VIKTORAS JUCYS (Викторас Юцис, Klaipeda, Lithuanian SSR).

2023. WORLD BODYBUILDING HISTORY.
ONLY THREE CONTESTS HAD HISTORIC STRATEGIC VALUE.
Today the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. (World Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation)  International unites 140 Country – Members and organizes nearly 60 annual Amateur and Professional International Events World Wide. Looking from the juridical point of view the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. International is no doubt the Real World Bodybuilding Leader.

Part One of the Encyclopedia covering period since ancient times to 1973 is finished. Now we are working on the Second Book covering period of time since 1973 until 1991.
ONLY THREE CONTESTS HAD HISTORIC STRATEGIC VALUE.
There are many various level competitions around us and the value to the World‘s sport of every one is different. Through the time today working on the „World Bodybuilding Encyclopedia“ we can clearly see what really every competition means to our sport. During the eighties of the last Century only three contests played great historic role to the Socialist Bodybuilding and to the World‘s Bodybuilding as well. The World was divided politically and the Bodybuilding Sport was prohibited in the Socialist Countries.  It was a big risk to everybody to be connected with this sport. This means that always we look upon the same things from the different point of view. Today we can underline that only three events were extremely important for the further development of bodybuilding:
- 1974 „Georg Tenno Memorial“ («Мемориал Георга Тенно», Tallinn, Estonian SSR, organized Innar Mardo, Иннар Мардо)
1975 I.F.B.B. Europe Championship (Amsterdam, Holland. Peter Stach from Czechoslovakia had broken the „Iron Wall“ and won the Europe Champion‘s title)
- 1978 „Amber Prix International“ („Gintarinis prizas“, „Янтарный приз», Klaipeda, Lithuanian SSR, organized by DSc. Edmundas Daubaras, Др. Эдмундас Даубарас).
We will speak about each of the mentioned events and explain the essence. Only due to them our sport looks as it looks now.
1974. “GEORG TENNO MEMORIAL”. BEGINNING.
Due to political reasons after 1971 bodybuilding in Socialist Countries was in problems. Finally in 1973 bodybuilding sport was prohibited in the U.S.S.R. and all Socialist Countries. Bodybuilding activities were prosecuted. The press was full of negative articles about bodybuilding.
Competitions were not organized at that time. But there were some exceptions.
Representative of the Estonian SSR INNAR MARDO (Иннар Мардо, 1946 – 2002) and his friends started pressing the polititians of the Estonian SSR.  They presented bodybuilding as a national kind of sport in Estonian SSR. They spoke about old Estonian traditions in power sports, strongmen and wrestling. All remembered such known Estonian sport persons as GEORG LURICH (Георг Лурих, 1876 - 1920), GEORG HACKENSCHMIDT  (Георг Гаккеншмидт, 1878 – 1968), Olympic Champion KRISTIAN PALUSALU  (Kristian Trossmann, Кристиан Палусалу, 1908 – 1987).  Estonian GEORG TENNO(Георг Тенно, 1911 - 1967)  for long years on was working at the high sport offices of the U.S.S.R.. This was in 1971 when Estonians started organizing in Tallinn the International „Georg Tenno Memorial“ («Мемориал Георга Тенно», 1971 – 1989) competition. The contest was nearly on regular basis and local governments somehow supported it.
Similar to Estonians did the bodybuilders of Czechslovakia. To hide the real bodybuilding basis they added a number of power exercises in their contests.
In Lithuania competitions were held underground and without public. In 1974 DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS organized the fourth historic „Amber Prix International“ („Gintarinis prizas“, «Янтарный приз», 1968 – 2022, Klaipeda, Lithuanian Republic). It was held in a city bomb shelter. After this the „Amber Prix“ was organized regularly. In 1976 the International Competition was held in Kalinin (Tver, Russian Federation). The Contest was done in a small city gym. In 1977 an International Contest was organized in a small Lithuanian SSR city Kedainiai and it was held in a small gym too. Lithuanians as well as bodybuilders of other Socialist Countries were hiding the bodybuilding with the power exercises.
In 1974 the „Georg Tenno Memorial“ was the only one bodybuilding contest in the U.S.S.R. which was supported by the Estonian Government. Though the U.S.S.R. polititians were prohibiting to do this.
