As the leading authority of trans bodybuilding, the IATBP is honored when anyone wants to wants to join our community and bring affirming, competitive spaces to more trans athletes around the world.

Want to compete?

In order to compete with the IATBP, it is required for you to become an active member. You are considered an “active member” for 12 months starting on the date your $49 membership fee is paid. Details can be found here.

If I don’t want to compete, can I still become a member?

Absolutely! An IATBP membership is not exclusive to current/future competitors. In fact, anyone who wants to support the IATBP and trans athletes around the world can become a supporting member of the IATBP, and partake in all of the benefits that our organization offers its members.

I just bought my membership! Now what?

Once you pay for your membership, you will be emailed login information that will allow you to access the members-only portal on our site. In the members-only portal you can register for any IATBP event, and access other members-only perks! Keep in mind that specified registration fees per competition/location/division will still apply for any event you want to sign up to compete in. Those fees are determined by the individual(s) running that event.

What else do I get with my membership?

Aside from being able to compete in any IATBP-sanctioned event, your membership gives you the opportunity to become an official IATBP bodybuilding judge or powerlifting referee. You will also receive an IATBP t-shirt for free!

Here are some other perks that our members currently get:

• FREE and confidential mental health consultation with the IATBP’s Mental Health & Performance Consultant, Dr. Kilwein. They are a board-certified clinical sports psychologist who will help you explore available and relevant mental health resources for free.
• Access to Dr. Kilwein’s directory of mental health and mental performance providers across the United States
• 5% discount on all IATBP swag available at our Bonfire store

We are also currently working on getting discounts from our sponsors on the products they provide.

Have any ideas for perks our members might want? Reach out so we can see if we can make something happen!

All of these and any future membership benefits will soon be accessible through our membership portal, which you’ll be able to log into when you purchase your membership.
