Men's Classic Bodybuilding

 

Men’s Classic Bodybuilding is similar to Men’s Bodybuilding but with certain limitations regarding the allowed bodyweight (muscle mass).

 

Men’s Classic Bodybuilding is considered as a new discipline in response to the increasing demand for competitions for men who prefer, unlike bodybuilders, to develop a less muscular, yet athletic and aesthetically pleasing physique. In Men’s Classic Bodybuilding the emphasis is placed on a muscular athletic-looking physique, assessed by caparisons of four quarter turns, 5 compulsory poses designed for physiques with less muscular body-mass compared to bodybuilders and athletic ability, assessed during a bodybuilder like routine.

 

The general idea of the concept – bodyweight limitation – is applied to all participants, who have been divided into three height categories:

 

 For Athletes up to 170cm

 Maximum bodyweight (kg) = body height (cm) -100 +2

 For Athletes over 170cm up to 178cm

 Maximum bodyweight (kg) = body height (cm) -100 +4

 For Athletes over 178cm

 Maximum bodyweight (kg) = body height (cm) -100 +6


 

Men’s Classic Bodybuilding consists of three rounds

 

Round 1:

 Compulsory Poses performed simultaneously

 Round 2:

 Quarter turns

 Round 3:

 Sixty second posing routine

 

There are 5 compulsory poses (compared to 7 in body-building):

  1. Front Double Biceps

  2. Front Lateral Spread

  3. Side Chest

  4. Back Double Bicep

  5. Abdominals and Thighs
