News in the NPC Divisions - Introducing the new Fit Model Division!! We are hoping this will bring even more participation and eyes to our shows that will benefit the entire industry as a whole!
NPC AND IFBB PRO LEAGUE CRITERIA FOR JUDGING FIT MODEL COMPETITORS
Criteria for Judging Fit Model Physiques:
1. Condition
2. Symmetry and Balance
3. Presentation (Posing)
4. Muscularity
Fit Model Competitors should display:
1. A foundation of muscle which gives shape to the female body however the amount of muscle should be less than seen in Bikini.
2. This means the amount of muscle in the legs, glutes, arms, and delts should be less than currently seen in the NPC and IFBB Pro League Bikini Division.
3. Full glutes with no visible tie-in area. However, the glutes should be firm when doing the model walk to the back of the stage or in transitions while posing.
4. Small amount of roundness to the delts but no capped delts.
5. A core that is in shape but not too conditioned or lean.
6. Overall conditioning that is less than the NPC and IFBB Pro League Bikini division but would be seen on a Mainstream Fitness Magazine Cover.
7. Hair, tan, makeup, and suit that all work together and enhance their presentation.
POSING:
1. Front pose is displayed above. One leg should be in front of the other with the hips slightly tilted.
2. Back pose is the same as the Bikini back pose.
What we are looking for with the posing:
Front Pose-
1. A balanced upper to lower body with a base of muscle. No body part should be overpowering another.
2. There should not be any separation showing in the shoulders, arms, or legs.
3. The core should be flat but not too detailed or separated.
Back Pose-
1. Overall balance between glutes and legs.
2. Glutes should be firm when moving or walking but there should not be any visible tie-in.
3. There should be no separation seen in the hamstrings.
FIT MODEL COMPETITOR RULES
Competition Suit Criteria:
1. Suit must be one plain color
2. No bling is allowed on the suit
3. Must have moderate coverage on bikini bottom. Styles like “pro cut, micro cut, Brazilian cuts, small cuts” will be strictly prohibited.
4. Competitors will compete in a two-piece suit.
5. The bottom of the suit must be v-shaped.
6. No Thongs are permitted.
Competitors can compete in an off the rack suit. All swimsuits must be in good taste. Athletes will be warned about improper suits and are advised to bring two (2) suits to check in. If the fronts of the suit(s) bottoms are too low and the judges deem them so at check-in’s, then the suit must be constructed higher, otherwise the Athletes will be scored down if the suit is not up to standard. If the judges deem your suit not to conform to the rules and inappropriate, then you will be directed to leave the stage and disqualified. NO EXCEPTIONS
Competitors must wear high heels.
Competitors may wear jewelry.

Talking about the new division...
-
They should provide a picture or an AI drawing of what they are generally looking for in this new Division. A picture is worth 1000 words
-
So stupid
Physique had like 50+ competitors already
-
And the scene becomes just that much more watered down.
The sliver-thin margins between all these divisions is madness. Move “half an inch” this way or that and you’re into another.
Just ridiculous.
-
Yet another boring class of the same ole Bollocks
They need less classes not more - The shows are far to long
Boring & repetitive as it now.
Not interested.
-
There are so many divisions and competitors now it will take a full week to get through contests.
-
Greedy pricks!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111

This is insane.
I go to contests. And I’ll be goddamned if I can distinguish between a Figure, Bikini, or Wellness competitor.
I agree that this is all about greed. Get a broader spectrum of women contestants, more contestants, more money for the promoters, more money for the NPC and IFBB. In other words more money for the Manions. The NPC and IFBB are not publicly traded companies. You can’t buy stock in them. The revenue they take in isn’t paid back to shareholders. It just goes to themselves.
-
NPC/IFBB says they will never have a "male" Wellness Class but this will be a segway into that class in the future. Trust me on this.

I cannot fathom sitting in an audience ever again for a marathon of bullshit divisions. Last show I watched in person was the North Americans in 98 where Dexter won his pro card.

They are slowly destroying their brand.

Another revenue stream for the NPC.

If they seriously want to get more audience they should start judging cocks or competitors posing fully nude in one of the rounds, that will draw new viewers
-
From competitor dues?
Easy money for JM and show promoters plus for tanning booth and hair /makeup vendors.
Million height and master classes.Chicks and soccer moms in shape from every gym will be competing and they will bring entire families and all friends who buy tickets to witness their greatness.
Matter of time JM starts something for men .
Santoja did and it works -$$$.Santoja even has kids classes.
-
Money rules .
-
Meaning if you're "pretty" you can get an IFBB pro card
That's why this whole charade will never be taken as a Sport, more like a weird "beauty" pageant.
WooooSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

1st round of prejudging should be the 1/4 turns done fully nude.

Lot of redbull and coke will be consumed by judges during larger pro qualifiers to stay awake and pay attention to bend over pose.
