Read my mind .
Or give them separate day and see how many people show up for bikini and MPD.
When Ramy won  his first NYPro in Tribeca I was there and once 212 and Open prejudging were  over 2/3 of audience got up and left .

This, plus limit the amount of guys that get stage time. It will hurt feelings, and you'll lose money, but gosh, it would make for a nice tight show.

Also it won't happen, but go back to that late 90's, early 2000's look for the stage show, etc..... Those older shows look so much better. The lighting, etc.....

I dont mind a women's open, masters and classic (no sense of a 212 as I dont know how many women can reach that weight).

That would still be better than all their current divisions:

    Men’s Open Bodybuilding

    Men’s 212 Bodybuilding

    Classic Physique

    Men’s Physique

    Wheelchair Bodybuilding

Women’s Pro Divisions

    Women’s Bodybuilding

    Women’s Physique

    Figure

    Fitness

    Bikini

    Wellness

No one really cares about any division but Open, Classic and maybe to a lesser extent, 212.

The open should limit it to 10 competitors.

[Humble Narcissist]

The open should limit it to 10 competitors.

My choice also.

[illuminati]

Drastically reduce the No. of categories far to many & you
have Blimps like Bianca Bhanks claiming he won a show FFS

hahaha of course, great point

[mops]

1. Naked bikini girls w/ an additional mandatory pose

[MAXX]

get rid of 212 class and mens physique class

keep classis physique and open bodybuilding only

and yes penalize guts and such ugly things. But I think they already started doing that many years ago it's basically why Phil lost a title.

yes and that

front and rear labia spread. And make me head judge.

How does one become "in charge" of bodybuilding?

Money talks.

If Elon Musk wanted to become Nr 1 in charge of bodybuilding he could just start a competition with a billion total price money with the competition in October and no bodybuilder would even consider Mr. O again.

there is always someone in charge of everything.
If you keep going up there is always someone who has the final decision

You still havent introduced yourself. What are your prefered pronouns?

  That pretty much covers it for me. Pull a vacuum or kick rocks

[MOB]

The. GUTS are  disgrace,  Any guts go to last place for me.  Crazy how good guys like Arnold and Sergio looked despite a lot less drugs. 

[mphgrove]

What is the current general ratio of Classic PRO prize money to Mens Open PRO prize money? It is hard to pin down exactly “who is in charge” but that ratio gives some indication of the value placed on guts (tolerated in Open) vs. no guts (less common in Classic) by promoters, judges, general public celebrity worship, marketing, etc.

[falco]

Should be introduced more leg poses, specially the rear.
