Bodyfitness
is a type of bodybuilding where all attention is paid to the proportional and harmonious development of the body. The body fitness division was formed by the IFBB federation in 2002.
Observation of performing athletes has shown that most of them demonstrate sharp fluctuations in physical fitness and body weight in a short period of time, which are possible only thanks to pharmacological support or rare genetic data.
To maintain muscle mass and dryness, growth hormone, anabolic steroids, clenbuterol and other weight loss drugs are used. In most cases, female athletes do not admit to doping, thereby avoiding social censure. Some athletes have a pronounced masculinization.
Differences from other competitions[edit | edit code]
Differences from other women's divisions according to the IFBB:
Women's Physique
(formerly
Women Bodybuilding
)
Women Bodybuilding participants had huge muscle volumes and pronounced definition. As a result of the use of high doses of anabolic steroids, as a rule, all participants showed pronounced symptoms of masculinization, including a rough voice, atrophy of the mammary glands (almost all had implants), clitoral hypertrophy, masculine facial features, etc. Most female athletes experience thinning hair on their heads and even experience male pattern baldness.
Due to the fact that most of the female athletes in the bodybuilding division had an extremely repulsive appearance and looked like men, Women's Physique was formed instead in 2013. In competitions, preference began to be given to more attractive girls, without obvious masculine features. Muscle volumes have become smaller, high demands are placed on definition, and high doses of androgenic and other anabolic drugs are still used, so most athletes have a rough voice, have breast implants (due to their own atrophy), and their faces begin to acquire masculine features. Female physicist includes 2 categories: height up to 163 cm and height above 163 cm.
Fitness (Women Fitness)
Outwardly attractive, they have practically no masculine outlines. Many female athletes have breast implants. The volume of muscle mass is usually small, but high definition (including six-pack abs) and muscle separation are required. The peculiarity of the category is that it is necessary to present a gymnastics program or dance.
or
FIGURE (Figure)
Initially, the division was conceived as an alternative to Women Fitness without a gymnastics program. But if in fitness the volume and separation of muscles are assessed secondary, then in body fitness preference is given to more sculpted girls with correct posture, broad shoulders and narrow hips. Some athletes have a rough voice and other mild signs of virilization and hyperandrogyny. Hair, makeup, gait and “stage confidence” are also assessed.
Fitness bikini
Fitness bikini is considered the lowest grade category introduced by the IFBB in 2011. Athletes should have an attractive appearance and a beautiful figure, but without obvious muscle relief (rounded buttocks, flat stomach, narrow hips). The low reputation of the fitness bikini division is explained by the fact that almost any girl can achieve such a physical shape with regular strength training and diet, and many girls have suitable shapes by nature. Therefore, most of the titles of fitness bikini champions were obtained through bribing judges or other services for which many FBFR champions became famous.
Origin story[edit | edit code]
Author of the section: Alexander Timoshenko, Iron World Magazine.
All competitions related to the visual representation of the physical development of the body in women, regardless of the federation, are divided into three divisions: bodybuilding, fitness, and body fitness (in the USA this is called FIGURE).
Where did the concept of body fitness come from? The magical transformation occurred because at a certain stage it became clear: not all beautiful, athletic girls are able to “do” a decent free program in fitness at the highest level. Not everyone has acrobatic and gymnastic training behind them. But at the same time, these same “not all” want to consider themselves bodybuilding.
A way out was found. Female athletes are judged based on body proportionality, muscle symmetry, and overall muscle tone (among other assessments discussed below). But with much less emphasis on the muscles themselves, their size, typical of standard bodybuilding.
Body fitness is, in my opinion, a good option for women who want to compete, but without the fitness requirements of performing a complex, sometimes traumatic, free program, and without building the extreme muscles necessary for bodybuilding.
Portal about fitness and bodybuilding: your personal assistant
Stay a minute. Feel here and now, realize: is your dream still alive? How do you see yourself in a month...a year...20 years? Are you ready to go to your victory until the end? If you are one of those few strong-willed people and your answer is “yes,” the iq-body portal about fitness and bodybuilding is exactly what you need. And now you will find out why.
Fitness and bodybuilding: the key to your success
No, we won't tell you that regular exercise is necessary for everyone who wants to be in excellent physical shape. There will be no horror stories about how you are young now, but without fitness exercises you are dooming yourself to a sick, decrepit and helpless old age.
There is also no need to argue that an excellent figure allows you to take your personal life to a new level. This is natural: beautiful in body and strong in spirit individuals always evoke genuine admiration. We will not talk about the fact that fitness and bodybuilding will allow you to become the owner of a perfect body and gain enormous self-confidence.
Well, the fact that regular exercise is the best way to combat depression is also far from news. Bodybuilding allows you to effectively overcome any stress: during exercise, endorphins are produced and any shocks are experienced more easily.
Let me spare you from long and empty explanations. After all, if you are a professional, you can list all the benefits of sports better than us. And if you are a beginner, you yourself know what irreparable benefits fitness and bodybuilding classes bring. We want to talk about something else. Every time you go to training, you choose exactly the life you deserve. With every new set and approach, you are one step closer to your dream. And it doesn’t matter what the main goal of your life is. An athlete who is able to overcome himself every time is doomed to success in any field.
