NPC figure vs. fitness physiques

[Sassy69]

I was a little worried that the whole figure thing would totally kill women's bb - which would be sad because I personally like the posing & routines of bb to just doing quarter turns in fuck me pumps. (Not intended as a flame to figure competitors...).

It will be interesting to see if these two categories remain distinct or begin to merge. Someone like Valentina would have a hard time competing in figure. Anyway, interesting thought. But I agree, the lack of sponsorship truly makes professional women's bb not worth the pain, the drugs and the disrespect from those who are more concerned with how "fuckable" the lady is vs. what she has accomplished with her training and dedication, as well as genetics.

LOL WarLobo, unless they're straight women or gay men!

With women judges, the "bitch" factor could be even worse than for men. We ALL know that women spend all that time in the gym for the perfect little tight body, $$$ on the perfect little fuck-me outfit with matching fuck-me shoes and all the time primping before going out, simply so they can see how other women look compared to them and just how other women look in the same club. Its an UGLY world out there.

now that was sassy LMAO!!! I personally find it funny at the shows to see the fitness guest posers and trophie givers wearing total "fuck me" outfits LOL they shop their shit around like there is no tomorrow... I understand that they have a kick ass body, but show some class.. It is a bb show, not a strip joint and if they are stripers.. wrong stage, save it for the bars!!!

Most in our area go for the "birth control" look from dress to physique. Must depend on the gym.

Anything Different Now?

I hate to revive an old thread, but it seems pertinent in this case. My wife is planning on competing in a few figure contests this season. The fitness category is out due to a lack of gymnastics history for her.

Reading thru this thread, it seems like there was been a lack of clear judging in the shows last fall. Has that changed this year? What are they looking for in figure competitions? I'm guessing the fitness look look without the fitness routine?

I went to a show this weekend as well, I was disappointed in the figure. To me it looked more like a bikini babe contest. There was a gril, I think I've seen her picture on another board, I could see her abs and shoulder striations from the balcony, beautiful and poised, I think she took 4th or 3rd in her class, everyone BOOOOD!!! She stood head and shoulders above anyone else out there. Perfect balance of lean, hard detailed muscle but not the size of a bodybuilder, totally elegant. At the same time most other girls, although beautiful, had saggy butts and some you could see cellulite from where I was!!! What's the point of having figure if they chose someone with a bikini babe body? I'm not bashing them, they are beautiful but that kind of contest already exists.

I think so far the best description of what judges are looking for is the fitness shape w/o the routine. I"m hoping to see fewer "toned strippers" in the comps this year -- the saggy butt is the give away. On flip side, striations in the glutes, etc is a little too ripped for figure so dont' go that far either. But a boob job and a starvation diet will not get u top billing at a figure show. You are still talking about 11% bodyfat, lean & ripped on top, good quad definition but not thickness, a 4-6 pack and no saggy buns. But the boob job, major fuck me shoes (clear plastic, not the hooker lookin' shiny silver ones), big hair and great makeup will do you well.

Thanks

Okay, thanks for the info. She's planning on doing her first Figure comp. on the first of Jun and then another one at the end of Jun. These will be her first, so we are curious to see how it works out.

The things you talk about here are exactly the reasons as why i never competed in a bb comp. When i was 22 (1991) i was thinking a lot of competing. I was big enough to do oke at regional shows but after watching and reading about comps for so many years i saw how it is all just OPINION of the judjes. I competed in speed skating as a teener and the fastest girl wins, thats it. Its not, well i guess the judjes were looking for......whatever....this year. If i am the best i want to win, and if i am not the best i do not want to win. One would make me angry and the other embarrased.

I LOVE pumping iron, but competing is just too much about opinion that day of seven other "experts"
