Men and women in the Bodybuilding Divisions will be judged through a series of poses that will allow the judges to evaluate not only individual body parts but also the “whole package.” Men wear a bodybuilding posing suit; women wear a two-piece bodybuilding suit with or without embellishments
Athletes are judged in two rounds:
- Symmetry encompasses overall balance and conditioning.
- Muscularity and conditioning judges mass, definition, and proportion.
