Men's Physique, Here to Stay

[Waylon]

I am not sure I get your point here my friend?
The classic guy out sizes and out conditions your friend by a mile.
I love natural bodybuilding and I think it's the best way to go but your comparisions so far have not been realistic.

I think you see my point, you just don't agree with it which is fine. You said specifically those three guys in the pic out conditioned me by 3% which I showed you was not the case. Then I took the best one on the planet and compared him to a natty and frankly I don't think he outsized him as much as you make it sound like nor does he really out condition all that much. That is the whole point of this division is that you have to have a certain height weight proportions, that end up being very similar to that of a top-natural person

Side note, as stated in the article that MPD would never get rid of the board shorts or shorten them simply because that would lessen the amount of people who perceive that they're able to complete (pay to enter)

For me Bikini is the best division for sure...Lol'z.

I have no problem with the existence of MPD. If it were set up like WPD I'd be a lot happier, though. Instead it's set up like Figure, which is demeaning to the men & prevents them from being able to pose. The board shorts were also a bad idea & need to go.

X2!

A friend corrected me on the post you just quoted. In fact, MPD is set up more like bikini than figure, because of the front & back posing only. The figure women do more than just that. The only difference is MPD doesn't do the moon shot, which increasingly the bikini women are doing, without being cautioned. If men did it, the judges would stop them.

That shit needs to be DQ'd. No moon shots allowed has been on the NPC books for decades.

Completely agree. If the admission to shows was over 18 only, I wouldn't say that. But at the last national show I attended in 2011, the bikini women did it over & over. It was like they were trying to top each other. When the first wasn't corrected, about half of them did it, & their outfits were suitable for pole dancing. I was around lots of little kids, & some of those little kids were looking at their moms onstage. Frankly, it was embarrassing.

The sooner you realize that bodybuilding is NOT a sport the better. It's a pageant disguised as a sport - it's all about the money. If you had any doubts then the introduction of bikini should wake you up.
