Bikini

BIKINI CLASSES

This competitive category focuses on presentation, balance, and category-specific muscular development. Competitors should be softer than Figure but neatly lean, with muscle separation. 

While less muscular, Bikini is still within the sport of Bodybuilding. All muscles should be developed to some degree, although glute, back and shoulder development are emphasised. 

Presentation is also a large part of the score for Bikini competitors, encompassing the second half of their score, with posing judged indirectly (how it impacts physique presentation), as well as directly (how well they move on stage and show what appears to be effortless, smooth posing with a charismatic stage presence).
