# Joel Stubbs

Joel Stubbs (born 30 December 1967 in Nassau, Bahamas) is a former IFBB professional bodybuilder.

## Biography

Stubbs first started studying bodybuilding on his own at age 29 in 1996. In 2000, he competed in the NPC (National Physique Committee) where he placed first. It was not until 2003 when he received his first IFBB pro card during the Central American and Caribbean championships. Stubbs is an airline pilot for Bahamasair, but didn't fly much during the time he spent competing in the IFBB pro-circuit.

Stubbs' most impressive feature is the size of his upper body, notably his incredibly large back. Stubbs however, has underdeveloped legs, due to an injury sustained to his knee during a basketball game. Stubbs is promoted in some advertisements as the World's Biggest Bodybuilder.

Stubbs is the President of the Bahamas Bodybuilding & Fitness Federation (BBFF) since 2015*.
