Ladies Trained Figure
Ladies Trained Figure
The emphasis must be on feminine shape and proportion, while retaining a “trained look” and low body fat levels, but not carrying development or definition to an extreme that could be classed as unfeminine.
Three disciplines are involved and competitors should prepare with diligence for all three. During the disciplines wearing jewellery and/or shoes is optional.
Presentation will consist of the following:
Round 1 Quarter Turns
The general presentation during the quarter turns will consist of competitors presenting themselves with poise, self-confidence and posture. Although they will be in a semi tense stance the judges are looking for a “total package” and competitors are warned against adopting any stance that tries to emulate too much muscularity. This is followed by any 1 favourite pose at front, left side, back and finally right side.
Round 2 Routine
Routines to be a minimum of 45 seconds, (Area Competitions can go up to 60 seconds max.) However you must check with your area rep who will inform you of the times for that show
45 seconds max is designated time for the Britain Finals and Universe Competitions
Judges are again reminded that however graceful and exciting an individual presentation may be, the most important aspect is the agreed criteria applied to Figure Judging. Competitors should construct their routines to reflect this.
Round 3 Comparisons
Competitors will be called back on to stage. Competitor numbers will be called requesting them to come front / centre stage in small groups of 4 - 6, known as the "call-outs".
The judges will request the following poses from the line-up:
1. Front Double Biceps
2. Side Chest (any side)
3. Side Tricep (any side)
4. Rear Double Biceps showing Calf
5. Abs & Thighs
Athletes who are not in the line-up are asked to adopt the "front stance" with no posing.
Pose-down & Awards
All athletes may be asked to perform 30 seconds of free posing - then assemble in a line at back of stage for placement awards. (This may take place after preliminary rounds of another class)
