competitors should not have the bulk of a bodybuilder, it is judged along the lines of a bodybuilding contest. As with all divisions, we require the competitors to reduce their body fat as low as possible, we still expect hardness and definition, but taken to the point that stops before a competitor loses their ‘figure or shape’ and the individual muscle groups lose their fullness or dimension.
In Ms Physique competitors perform seven (7) compulsory poses, and quarter turns:
1) Front double biceps
2) Side chest (any side)
3) Side triceps (any side)
4) Rear double biceps
5) Abdominal & thigh
6) Side Intercostals
7) Most Symmetrical (best displays your symmetry of your choice)
Ms Figure was introduced to America by the ABA/INBA/PNBA in 1995
