Why do you want to do this to the "sport"? Why do you want to do this to your audience? Has the whole concept of dignity been completely abandoned? The poor audience has to clap and act like they appreciate this display. These brave souls willing to go onstage. Since obviously, the competitors have no sense of shame, dignity or self-awareness it is the audience that has to shoulder the embarrassment and keep it to themselves out of decorum and human decency.
Self-delusion is rampant in this sport and you are only encouraging it. If you have a good physique, look like you actually train, at a level that merits going on stage, then I don't care how old you are. Stallone could probably put on a good display. But these guys? There is absolutely nothing about them that merits putting them on stage as an example of some kind of physical achievement. I really, really wonder what kind of people these are. That Dallas guy, third from the left, looks like a corpse. He reminds me of one of the zombies in the Thriller Video. I don't care how dedicated he is going to the gym and following a proper diet, he is absolutely hideous to look at and your organization should be ashamed at encouraging such self-delusion.
Have some dignity and integrity. What an absolute disgrace.
