IFBB events in March and April have been postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, which has now infected more than 2.37 million people and killed more than 163,000.

This includes the Diamond Cup events in Lisbon and Malta and the Arnold Classic Africa in Johannesburg.

The governing body has urged athletes to continue checking the IFBB website for updates on events.
