Figure competition is a newer division of fitness that excludes the
fitness routine. The competitors are judged solely on symmetry and
muscle tone, though as in fitness, with much less emphasis on muscle
size than in
bodybuilding.
Figure competition is a good option for women who want to compete, but
without the athletic demands of the fitness routines, and without
building the extreme muscle needed for
bodybuilding.
A
typical figure competition includes two rounds, though this may vary
depending on the organization. In the symmetry round, the competitors
appear on stage in high heels and a one-piece swimsuit, in a straight
line facing the judges. They execute a series of quarter turns to the
right, allowing the judges to view and compare them from all sides for
symmetry, presentation, and aesthetics such as skin tone, hair,
make-up, suit selection, and shoe choice. In the next round, the group
comparisons, the competitors come out again in high heels and a
two-piece suit, execute a series of quarter turns and are judged more
critically against the other
competitors
for conditioning and leanness, and feminine display of athletic muscle.
Included in either of these rounds, or perhaps just the evening show,
the competitors come out individually on stage for a model walk where
they are judged on presentation, grace, confidence, poise, and
professionalism.
