FBB Mandatory Poses

Poses Required in Women's Competitions


During female bodybuilding competitions, contestants are required to perform a series of poses. Generally, the poses are the same from competition to competition.

The National Physique Committee (NPC) is the top amateur body building and fitness competition organizations in the U.S. Here are the seven mandatory poses required by the NPC:

• POSE#1 - FRONT DOUBLE BICEP
  
• POSE#2 - FRONT LAT SPREAD
  
• POSE#3 - SIDE CHEST POSE (either side)
  
• POSE#4 - SIDE TRICEP EXTENSION (either side)
  
• POSE#5 - BACK DOUBLE BICEP
  
• POSE#6 - BACK LAT SPREAD
  
• POSE#7 – ABDOMINAL/THIGH POSE

The above poses are pretty standard, but if you're thinking about entering a specific competition, it's best to check directly with the sponsoring organization as rules can change at any time.
