The end of women's bodybuilding in the IFBB as it goes away from the Arnold

[LATS]

 Men's physique only makes money for the  NYC and ifbb because of the number of entries.. The ticket sales, if physique was held on its own , are dismal.. But the money on the entry fee is good.. Men's bodybuilding on the other hand pulls in the crowd still.. I know its not popular to say here but it does.. What figure and physique does is allow more entries and yes,they do bring some family.. But regular fans they do t draw at all. That is why they are held together.. One feeds off the other..

lots of pro men's bodybuilding contests last a few years then disappear.  auditorium was 90% empty.  Colorado, that one in Connecticut a few years back, Ironman, Flex Pro.  No pro bodybuilding in Los Angeles this year.  Yet the LA Pro Physique Grand Prix back in April did quite well.    Many pro IFBB contests without bodybuilding this year.  bet there are even more next year.

All the women's division can. Figure, bikini, and physique have plenty of shows on their own. The only one that is more dead than Female Bodybuilding is Fitness. No idea why it is still in existence.

I can't think of a single pro figure or bikini show that is supporting itself.  Every one of them is held in conjunction with either an NPC show or pro men's bodybuilding show.

Yes the NPC portion lets these smaller shows take place. Without them no way.

Simple solution: those Mz.International/pro figure females (if they a  ) without bra should be allowed to compete with boys (anyway, some of them look too manly ) in pro man's shows  reality is that some of the "girlz" would defeat Frank Zane or Robbie Robinson in theirs heydays 

So Ifbb Pro League, please no more sexual categorizations and just 1 category for all 
O, by the way Olympia is traditional Greeks pussy name

The women's bodybuilders should be allowed to compete in the 212. Many would crush the guys. The conditioning of some of the FBB's is insane.

i think that's actually a good idea
