PROMOTIONAL CATEGORY (FREE)

There is no extra charge for this category: athletes can sign up freely at no additional cost when registering.

The category is considered a stand-alone category.

POSING ROUTINE

The aim of the “POSING ROUTINE” category is to make events more spectacular by giving athletes a dedicated space to express the artistic side of Bodybuilding, with rules that allow it to be judged. It also helps shorten event schedules, giving athletes and judges maximum comfort by cutting downtime and avoiding performances by some athletes that don't reflect the beauty and image of WBPF Italy.​​

​

ROUTINE JUDGING CRITERIA

The free routine must last no more than 60 seconds, must be performed to music and must include the mandatory poses. Interpretation of the music, elegance and carriage are an integral part of the performance, along with rhythm and the choice and matching of poses to the type of music.
