Just been to a British qualifier to watch a mate, there were half a dozen n each bodybuilding class, there were 35 odd in mens bikini, similar with womens in all the various classes... They had to realy rush the bodybuilding to accomodate the other classes
As an actual show it was shit, and I feel fir the guys who've trained and dieted and spent £'s on gear to get a poxy 2 mins and not even get to do an individual routine...
Its the beginning of the end, sad times....
Also, mens bikini is the gayest thing I've ever witnessed, total homo's

Yup.
I did a contest last October. The bodybuilders went first. There were 2 lightweight, 6 middleweights, and 4 heavyweights.
We were on and off in less than 15 minutes, both morning and evening.
Yet the show was over 2 and half hours long....

whats the difference between mens bikini and mens bodybuilding?
whats the difference between mens bikini and mens posing trunks?
mens bikini they don't do bodybuilding poses, they just sashay like the fucking flaming homo's that they are, several of the benders also wore make up
Mens bikini=mens posing trunks

do BALD men do terrible in physique? Seems like a thing where that'd matter way more than in hardcore BBing.

so the difference is in the choreography and the make up?
Difference in Upbringing, Education, Social awareness and loss of the Family Values on which we used to rely.

Yeh it brings money in, it would make me think twice if I were a competitor looking to compete, if I were going to compete these days id switch to NABBA, at least you'd get treated with a bit respect instead of being rushed on and off

You witnessed the death of bodybulking when Jay Cutler became Mr. O, you and others just didn't realize it.
True bodybuilding is alive and well with Musclemania and a few other federations, as well with Paul Dillett's muscle model class.

I don't understand the men's bikini at all. There's a bunch of them at one of the gyms I go to and I have never ever seen them training legs except for jumping around. It's all bench press, shoulders, and arms.
I don't Even know how you judge it. Makes zero sense to me.
Won't go anywhere because it's too much of a money maker

Bodybuilding was invented by homosexual men.
It has already been discussed the origin of the concept of the ideal male body and in more recent times: Eugen Sandow.
And there is nothing wrong with it. No amount of heterosexuality will make bodybuilding any more sacred and divine.

Mens Bikini?!
If a man isn't a legit crapper-smacker, and he competes in this division, no amount of "no homos" is gonna help him recover from the shame.

Men's bikini? Seriously? How many different gender bathrooms did the venue have?
-

Mens bikini=mens posing trunks
so whats the difference
if they did bb poses would that make it less gay

It does make money, but NOT by bringing in more fans of the sport.
It's a yearbook 101 business model.
Everyone pays an inflated entry fee to be seen on stage.
Their friends/family buy a ticket to see them .
99% of the crowd is a friend or relative of those in the show.

Agreed. They are smart to leave bikini and physique until last because the majority of people there are friends and family members of competitors. It doesn't translate well at the pro level either because Friday night at the Olympia, the arena started filling up when the men's open was on. I don't think bikini belongs on the main stage. I think the main stage should be men's open, 212, figure, and women's physique (which is really where women's bodybuilding should have staged.
At the Olympia, the women's physique had a nice crowd. A lot of us were friends and family but still. I thought the Ladies who didn't know anything about bodybuilding would want to stay for the men's physique since they thought men's bodybuilding was horrible except for 1 or 2 guys, but they weren't interested.

From what I can gather the British finals are going to be split into 2 days, with all the mens&womens bikini one day and bodybuilding the next which won't be so bad
-
its invention and popularity has probably more to do with weak male identity than sexual orientation.
The concept of a muscular body as the ideal for men was created in Greece by homosexual men in ancient times. As I said, there is a topic where this has been discussed.
Now, today's bodybuilding has been associated with an identity crisis among middle class heterosexual men who see their masculinity as weak or threathened by the visibilisation of male homosexuality and women assuming roles deemed "for men".

They kind of did the same thing with the Arnold this year. Men's bodybuilding is going the same route as Female bodybuilding... Extreme use of drugs Bodybuilding is heading back down to extreme cult status. Exactly where it belongs...The cat is out of the bag on how much drug use it takes to do what their doing.

Jay Cutler was mr olympia all those times because he was a good manion stooge and had no problems kissing the ring. 2009 was his only legit win.
Last bodybuilding show (NPC) I attended had maybe 10 bodybuilders total. I think it was something like 2 bantams, 2 middles, 3 light heavies and maybe 3 heavies no supers.
There were 4 mens physique classes each with a good 30-40 competitors in each.
Figure used to be popular at one time there may have been 10-12 of these girls divided in 2 classes.
Bikini was like mens physique 4 classes about 30 deep.
The show went on for like 4hrs or longer.
All NPC shows are now 90% physique and bikini. Times changed so has the industry. I went to the arnold classic this year and watched how the IG/Facebook social media fitness guys had lines going across the expo to see them and then I walked past bodybuilders who competed at the Olympia or even the Arnold with maybe one person seeking a picture or an autograph. Nobody cares or even knows who they are. It's all about the IG fitness "celebs", tattoos, pre-workout powder and the word "hustle" on their clothing. lol
