The local body-builders also scooped four silver and two bronze medals.
Among the biggest winners was Beloved Tonderai George, who walked away with two medals.
George scooped a gold medal in the Men’s Fitness category before walking away with a silver medal in the International Model competition.
In the body-building section, Gedion “Gidza” Teguru won gold, with Nicola Hwindingwi being adjudged the overall female winner.
Gweru-based Yeukai Midzi impressed the judges and claimed gold in the female Wellness category.
In the Men’s Wheelchair, Bulawayo-based Lesley Payne Gondo came out victorious.
George said winning in Zambia was a foregone conclusion.
“Remember the same Zambian body-builders took part in the Fitness Physique Zimbabwe and I beat them.”
“I knew their strengths and weaknesses, and winning was a foregone conclusion.”
