PORTLAND, Ore., July 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — evolutionary.org, a leading online community dedicated to bodybuilding and fitness, today announced the launch of a new series of bodybuilding shows scheduled throughout 2025. In addition, the site is opening a members-only sub-forum exclusively for serious competitors: MuscleMecca. This new space offers focused discussion, training strategies, competition insights, and peer networking.
The 2025 lineup will feature at least four sanctioned natural bodybuilding competitions hosted across the United States. These events are designed to provide aspiring athletes with regional opportunities to compete in front of a live audience, earn rankings, and secure invitations to national championships. Full schedules, registration details, prize information, and event rules will be available via the main forum and event pages on evolutionary.org.
In anticipation of increased excitement around the 2025 shows, evolutionary.org is also debuting a private sub-forum called MuscleMecca. Accessible only to registered competitive athletes, MuscleMecca offers a dedicated venue for detailed discussions about contest prep, nutrition plans, posing guides, coaching referrals, and post-show reflections. Eligible members can request access through the site, with approval based on track record or show participation.
