He had earlier beaten seven other contestants in the middleweight category. Other categories were that of junior, light and heavyweights. Obotseng walked away P11, 000 richer after winning P5, 000 in the middleweight category and P6, 000 in the overall category.

Body builders came in all shapes and sizes to do their thing to try and steal judges' hearts. Spectators, especially women, had a good time watching those huge muscles. The women screamed at the top of their voices every time contestants marched onto the stage. However, it must have also been a scary experience especially for the people who were watching this kind of competition for the first time. It looked like a very tough thing each time contestants flexed their muscles. Shaking and biting their lips, it took them much energy and determination to make proper cuts.

It was also clear from the way competitors were sweating that body building is not a game for the faint hearted. In the junior category, Simbarashe Pero was declared the winner after beating seven other contestants. Though not the crowd's favourite and having a relatively smaller figure Pero articulated himself well cutting his muscles nicely.The other thing that could also have won Pero top marks is his well-developed and proportionate body.

Paul Guredema, who stole many spectators' hearts and was tipped to finish in first position, took position two. Though he had good looks and well cut bitch tits, Guredema's main undoing must have been his disproportionate body. He has a huge upper body while his lower body is too small. In the heavyweight category, only five men did battle abd Champion Chienderamwane emerged victorious. It was clear from the onset that Chienderamwane had no competition. With well-built V-taper, Chienderamwane had no match. Last Sithole is the winner in the lightweight category. Winners in the category were rewarded with P5, 000 each.
