  1. INDIVIDUAL ROUND: Competitors will execute a model walk to center stage. Beginning facing the front, the competitor will perform quarter turns, face judges as directed, and proceed to line up either stage right or left based on the direction of the expediter until all presentations are complete. Competitors will stand in a side-relaxed pose while lined up at stage right/left. Competitors will be judged on symmetry, muscle development and tone, and overall stage presence and posing. Judges will be looking for a small degree of muscularity with no extreme striations visible. Hair, make-up, suit, jewelry, and tan should all complement competitor’s figure overall.
  2. ROUTINE: Each competitor will perform a maximum 2-minute routine. Throughout the routine, competitors will implement the following mandatory movements – high kicks, straddle hold, push-up of your choice, and side split. Competitors will be judged on strength, flexibility, overall stage presence, and creativity. Posing music must be on flash drive or CD or emailed directly to DJ as determined by the promoter. Music may not contain any vulgar, racial, or sexual lyrics.
  3. EVENING PRESENTATION: Each competitor will perform their routine. After all routines have been performed, each competitor will again be called to center stage to perform quarter turns. Competitors will line up on stage right/left based on the direction of the expediter until all competitors have come back out. They will be instructed to exit the stage. The top 5 will be called back on stage for trophy presentations.
  4. KIDS FITNESS: Each competitor will be judged on strength, flexibility, creativity, endurance, and overall stage presence as appropriate for their age group. Competitors will walk to center stage and perform their best poses for the judges. Next, competitors will perform a maximum 90- second routine. Competitors may perform any activity where they excel – such as bodybuilding, martial arts, gymnastics, dance, or aerobics. In the evening after all routines are performed, the top 5 of each class will be called back on stage for trophy presentations. Posing music must be on flash drive or CD or emailed directly to DJ as determined by the promoter. Music may not contain any vulgar, racial, or sexual lyrics.
