What
is a Figure Competitor?
A figure competitor is a female who lives a lifestyle
of complete wellness.
She trains with weights, does cardio, and eats a clean,
balanced diet
to achieve an overall fit, lean, healthy physique.
Training and preparing for a figure competition is intense
and disciplined.
The journey to get there is no less grueling than a fitness
athlete's or a bodybuilder’s program.
In most federations or divisions
she is judged upon her overall athletic development, muscle
tone, and symmetry.
A figure competitor is low in body fat without being “skinny”
and is lacking deep muscle separation and / or striations
normally seen in bodybuilding.
Her skin, skin tone, hair, and facial beauty are also
taken into consideration.
Also a factor is the figure competitor’s ability
to present her-self with poise,
grace, and confidence walking and posing on a stage in
5” heels!
