The Men’s Physique division is designed for athletes who showcase a lean, aesthetic, and proportionate physique with an emphasis on symmetry, shape, and overall presentation. Unlike bodybuilding, this category favors a streamlined, athletic build over extreme muscle mass and striations. Competitors should display a well-defined upper body with a V-tapered waist, broad shoulders, and a balanced abdominal wall.
This competition highlights proportional development, muscularity, and stage presence, rewarding those who bring a polished, professional look with confident and engaging presentation. While muscular conditioning is important, extreme leanness, excessive vascularity, and overly striated muscles are not desired in this category.
Competitors perform in board shorts and are judged on their ability to present their physique with poise and charisma, demonstrating control over their movements and confidence in their stance.
