Muscular Fitness Model  (Male ONLY)

The Muscular Fitness Model category is meant to showcase a model who is more muscled than the Athletic Fitness Model, although still not as striated as a bodybuilder. Visible fullness and separation between muscle groups are rewarded. Although these models will show significantly more muscle mass than the Athletic Fitness Model, they should keep in mind that a natural look is necessary to be successful in mainstream fitness modeling so you don't need to be as ripped of dry as a bodybuilder.  The Muscular Fitness Model must have good symmetry, proportions and display ample confidence with personality in a tasteful fashion.

Bikini Model (Female ONLY)

The Bikini Model division is meant to showcase healthy models who are fit and toned but not as lean as the Athletic Fitness Models.  Striations within individual muscles should not be visible due to the fact that the body fat percentage may be slightly higher for that natural look.  Models should be proportionate, fit, confident and have great stage presence.

Whether you are an Athletic Fitness Model, Bikini Model or Runway Model for that matter, you can participate in this category. Because of this very different standard, anyone competing in another category can also compete in Glamour Model. Athletic Fitness Model and Bikini Model are two completely different looks and should be judged as so but Glamour Model is open to any woman that wants to try something a little different, more glamorous and incredibly FUN!  It can be a sole primary category if Athletic Fitness Model or Bikini Model isn’t of interest or as an optional second category to either.

Stage Tips for ALL Categories:

• Body should be well proportioned for your category, balanced and symmetrical (ex: front vs. back, upper body vs. lower body, left side vs. right side).

• Have a healthy vibrant look showing self-confidence and excellent posture.

• Show off your individuality, charisma, style and personal flair.

• Pay attention to detail including hair, nails, jewellery, posing suits, heels, blemishes etc.

• Tattoos are allowed and if you have them wear them proudly.

• Skin tone should be smooth, tight and healthy in appearance.

• A tanned appearance is beneficial under the bright wash lighting.  This can be achieved via sun beds, natural sunlight, spray tanning and/or Protan/Dream Tan.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Competition colour paste/clay/spread is forbidden due to it's wetness and makes the skin appear too dark. We do NOT seek bodybuilder dark for any of our categories. Competitors will be disqualified for using this product due to the damage it does to the venues.

Hey James, where would I find pics of competitors who have previously won in each category to compare what category would best suit me, and some other people I know who are interested in competing.

Thanks!

Hello,

Can you tell me, are there any workshops available in the London area? Also, how often are competitions held? I would be interested in either the bikini model, or more likely, the athletic fitness competition divisions. Thank you for your anticipated response.
