NPC (National Physique Commitee), alltså IFBB amateur nivå i USA, har nu gjort ett beslut att starta en ny division för herrar. Det inte är bodybuilding, det inte är classic bodybuilding. Det heter ”Physique division” och ser ut så här:

Quote:The RULES & GUIDELINES for MEN’S PHYSIQUE:Men’s Physique Division
Beginning in 2011 a new division for men will be introduced – Men’s Physique. The following are the guidelines/rules.Judging Criteria:
* Muscularity and Body Condition
Judges will be looking for fit contestants who display proper shape and symmetry combined with muscularity and overall condition. This is not a bodybuilding contest so extreme muscularity should be marked down.* Stage Presence and Personality
Contestants will be asked to walk in board shorts (shorts must be just above the knee in length and can be one inch below the belly button, no spandex and no logos are permitted on the board shorts however a manufacturer’s logo such as Nike symbol or Billabong are acceptable. Competitors will enter the stage without a shirt and barefoot. No lewd acts are allowed. Example: The moon pose. Judges are looking for the contestant with the best stage presence and poise who can successfully convey his personality to the audience.COMPETITION JUDGING
Presentation:
* Competitors will walk to the center of the stage alone and perform quarter (1/4) turns with optional pose of hand on hip or hand in pocket, face the judges as directed then proceed to the side of the stage.Comparison Round:
* The competitors will be brought back out in a group and directed to do quarter turns
* Judges will have the opportunity to compare competitors against each other in quarter turns.Promoters can choose to have one class or two. For contests with two classes:
* Up to including 5’8”
* Over 5’8”National level contests do not permit competitors to crossover into Bodybuilding. All other competitions are permitted to have crossovers at the discretion of the promoter with district chairperson’s approval.
Who Qualifies for National Level Men’s Physique Competitions:
Competitors that place in the top five (5) in each class at national qualifying contests will have a one year qualification for national level events.
Note: For 2011 a place in the top five (5) of any Men’s Physique contest will qualify you for national level contests.

Bikini, fast för killar med andra ord.
Det positiva är väl om det gör någon glad att sporten inte kan betraktas som lika sexistisk eftersom det nu finns en sådan klass även för män.
Själv känner jag mest så här inför dessa klasser:
I am so freaking out. These new divisions leads to nothing good. The trend seems to be to add these ”something for everyone”-divisions in order to bring NPC some money. At the same time, the trend leads to the fact that … its not about having the best physique any more. How could it be? I mean how do u judge when half of the body is covered with clothes. And besides, rules say that if you are too good, you will be marked down. This is something which dont match when you speak about PROFESSIONAL SPORT.
At the same time they drop the numbers of FBB and Fitness Pro shows. Actually, women’s fitness will have only 1 OPEN SHOW in US next year before the olympia. Promoters take these easy divisons which will most likely bring much entries. And promoters cant have all the divisions , its impossibility thinking of simply time. All divisions cannot be run in a one day. One extra day will cost too much. At NPC level it will be a hell. Already now they are 2 day national shows and now adding, first mens physique and like it looks now, there will be another divison more – womens physique.. already now bodybuilders wait on backstage like 4 extra hours to start with prejudging cause there are tons of bikini girls.
This sucks. I dont understand this attitude that being pro , winning awards should be possible for everyone. Yes, everyone can compete, but why there needs to be easy-divisions for those who are not talented or who have not been training many years enough. Those could compete still in bb /figure classes and place low at first , keep improving.
I hate it. I hate this as much as I hate bikini division. And thats A LOT. I dont understand why NPC need to bring always something new and different. They could have taken CBB which is BRILLIANT. CBB allows you to be as good as you can be , as big and shredded as you can be in the limits of weight/height. That makes sense when you are not marked down for being too good.
Känns som en bra division för grabbarna som är för stora för att vara rena , men roidat för lite för att bli ordentliga byggare . En onödig tävlingsklass helt enkelt. Kanske med syftet at dra mer kvinnliga åskådare till tävlingar
??NPC is fucking retarded. This is the most ridiculous thing I ve ever heard.
New rules in NPC FITNESS:
” For the Overall comparison, Fitness athletes will be judged wearing their routine outfits. ”
You compare physiques in fitness routine outfits .. which can be WHATEVER… (see below)
Det handlar bara om att få deltagare, att alla ska kunna deltaga och tycka att det är acceptabelt o snyggt!
En snygg strandfysik helt enkelt.
Benmuskler är tydligen inte så intressant.
Kommer förmodligen på fitnessfestivalen inom några år! (ännu ett sömnpiller)Tramsigt, sa Bill…
Bikini och nu detta. ALLA SKA MED! Om byggning är svårt att motivera som idrott så är ju detta komplett omöjligt. Men det kanske är ointressant med idrott i salongerna hos NPC. Det vikigaste är kanske tits and ass and then some moves och om vi har 76 miljoner klasser så verkar det som att skeppet inte sjunker.
Å andra sidan har man flyttat otidsenligheten tjugo år framåt i tiden och helt plötsligt är man lika snett ute för både killar och tjejer. Jämställdspris?
känns mer som badpojkarnas cattwalk… det börjar spåra ur !! snart ska det väl va kostym med ..- You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
