The organisers of this year’s event are also giving to one athlete on the night – The Best Poser Trophy – donated by former President of the Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation – Frank Tucker.
Mr. Tucker’s gesture, a release from Flex Night International stated, is aimed at encouraging bodybuilders to refine and perfect the art of displaying their muscularity in the most pleasing and effective way, including the choice of music, the sequence of his movements and the projection of overall stage personality in 60 seconds.
The best posing routine will be judged as part of the normal assessment of the different weight categories and not as a separate segment, so no accessories or props will be allowed.
On the night, the males will compete in Men’s Physique (Open); Bodybuilding – Under 143lbs (64.8kgs), Under 154lbs (69.8kgs), Under 165lbs (74.8kgs), Under 176lbs (79.8kgs), Over 176lbs (79.8kgs+). The Male events will be pre-judged.
