JUDGING Criteria
Figure is judged equally on symmetry, muscle tone and stage presence. Judges will be looking at balance and proportion (e.g., between upper and lower body).
Figures should be symmetrically balanced; upper or lower body should not overpower the other; no one-body part should overpower the rest of the physique. Competitors must also show good muscle tone, leanness and muscle development is expected.
The Figure division will be suitable for athletes who are larger framed and more heavily muscled than Bikini athletes, and slightly harder and leaner but WITHOUT the detail and conditioning of Fit Body or Size of Bodybuilding.
Athletes wear two-piece figure suit; thongs or T-back bottoms are not allowed. The suit may be embellished with rhinestones, sparkles, or sequins for added effect. High-heeled shoes are required. Jewelry and body piecing is allowed, but must not be offensive or obscure the physique.
The Figure Division is judged in two (2) rounds:
-
Presentation & Stage Walk are no longer scored. The athletes overall stage presence, stage walk, hair, make-up, attire, and accessories that compliment and enhance the athlete’s figure are areas judges will focus on when breaking ties..
-
Symmetry takes into account balance and proportion; physiques should be symmetrically balanced with no one body part overpowering the rest of the body.
-
Muscle Tone focuses on moderate muscle tone; leanness and muscle development is expected, however competitors must not be over conditioned as in the Bodybuilding or Fit Body divisions.
