INBF/WNBF Judging Criteria

BODYBUILDING

BODYBUILDING

BODYBUILDING

Men and women in the Bodybuilding Divisions will be judged through a series of poses that will allow the judges to evaluate not only individual body parts, but also the “X-Frame.”


Athletes are judged in two rounds:

  • Symmetry encompasses overall balance and conditioning.
  • Muscularity and conditioning judges mass, definition, and proportion.

Bodybuilding poses include quarter turns, front double biceps, front lat spread, side chest pose for each side, side tricep pose for each side, back double biceps, back lat spread, overhead abdominals with legs displayed, hands on hip most muscular, and crab most muscular poses.

FIGURE

BODYBUILDING

BODYBUILDING

Figure is a class of physique competition judged equally on symmetry, tone, and beauty/stage presence.

Athletes wear two-piece figure suit; thongs or T-back bottoms are not allowed. The suit may be embellished with rhinestones, sparkles, or sequins for added effect. High-heeled shoes are required. Jewelry and body piecing is allowed, but must not be offensive or obscure the physique

.

The Figure Division is judged in three (3) rounds:

  • Symmetry takes into account balance and proportion; figures should be symmetrically balanced with no one body part overpowering the rest of the figure.
  • Tone focuses on good muscle tone; leanness and muscle development is expected, however competitors must not be over conditioned as in the Bodybuilding or Fit Body divisions.
  • Beauty Presentation / Stage Walk judges overall stage presence as well as hair, make-up, attire, and accessories that compliment and enhance the athlete’s figure.

FIT BODY

BODYBUILDING

FIT BODY

Fit Body judges are looking for a more athletic physique, but without the muscle mass of the BodyBuilding division, such as overly ripped or vascular shoulders, back, or arms.

Athletes wear two-piece figure suit; thongs or T-back bottoms are not allowed. The suit may be embellished with rhinestones, sparkles, or sequins for added effect. High-heeled shoes are required. Jewelry and body piecing is allowed, but must not be offensive or obscure the physique.


Scoring is based on two (2) rounds:

  • Symmetry is judged on balanced proportions; upper and lower body should not overpower the other, and no one body part should overpower the rest of the physique.
  • Muscle Tone will focus on the overall conditioning of the body, not overly muscular, too striated, or hard looking.  Competitors should not appear to be at the same physical level of a Bodybuilding competitor.
