Sports Trivia (Bodybuilding)

When it comes to bodybuilding, do you know the basic rules of a bodybuilding competition? In the prejudging round of a women’s bodybuilding contest, there are five compulsory poses, Front Double Biceps, Side Chest, Back Double Biceps, Side Triceps, Abdominals and Thighs. There are two additional compulsory poses for men, which are front and back lat spread. Both male and female athletes who enter into finals are required to complete three categories in order to determine the final rankings, including individual posing routine to music (up to a maximum of 60 seconds), a group of compulsory poses mentioned above, and posedown (up to a maximum of 60 seconds). Therefore, bodybuilding emphasizes not only muscles strength, but also aesthetics. Kids might be too young to join a bodybuilding tournament, but simple equipment and games are essential to improve a kid’s body coordination, muscles flexibility, as well as their physical strength.
