Drug Testing

Policy

World Physique Alliance competitors are required to pay a $75 drug testing fee. 100% of funds collected will go directly towards lab expenses. Urine specimens for all WPA Pro Card winners as well as all Pros earning a placing that receives prize money will be sent to SMRTL for testing (full comprehensive IC panels). Outside of those guidelines, any remaining drug testing funds collected will be applied to targeted and random testing for that event. Athletes will receive their lab reports to complete our commitment to drug testing transparency. Pass or fail the athletes will have no doubt that the urine was processed by SMRTL. “Out of season” drug testing will be done to preserve the integrity of our sport. Any Adverse Analytical Findings (IC or OOC) and resulting suspensions will be put on the WPA website for transparency.
