The Look:
Physique participants should expect to be within the following physical parameters at time of competition:
- A strong presentation of overall athleticism
- Well-formed musculature throughout the entire body, in all areas
- A comprehensive level of tone and conditioning
- A feminine flare enhanced with hair, makeup, color, suit design and personal style accents
- Presentation of shape and balance with mandatory and free style poses
This look falls into line with the “not as big, hard or defined as a bodybuilder, more developed and balanced than a figure competitor.”
The Judges:
NGA judges will consist of experienced fitness, figure, beauty and performance professionals. A panel of five to seven impartial men and women will be scoring judges. High and low scores will be dropped and a placing system will be used. The head judge may be a scoring official. Ethical concerns are at the discretion of the NGA, the promoter and its’ officials.
