From personal experience, I do not have fakies. I won't say the cross hasn't crossed my mind and it's not for others pleasure but my own security. I however have remained natural as my husband prefers and honestly I am growing more acustom to the thought that after comp when my fat percentage increase so do the airs that I retain the most fat. I have seen some gorgeous women win without implants

Love this! I recently crossed over into fitness from figure and I do not want breast implants. I'm lean/ muscular, athletic and petite... I have some nice/ lean pecs when I lean out. Not at all prominent like a man though. Although the pro fitness athletes tend to have implants also, I imagine it would make our fitness moves harder to do plus the tumbling, etc. I don't think it looks good when competitors are leaned out and you can see the actual silicone implant. In saying that I've seen implants beneath the pectoral muscle and in front of. You can still tell they're fake but it does make a noticeable difference. Everyone their own!

Thank you for this comment. I truly feel its a personal descision just like anything else you mentioned (hair color, teeth whitening, fake nails, eye lashes, fake tan, etc.) and as a mother of 2 believe me that after breastfeeding them both, they were anything but attractive. Most of us here strive to look better and there are millions of ways to achieve that. I do agree that when a woman is super lean and has implants over the muscle, they look odd but you have to remember that in comps, you are not being judged on your implants.

From a social perspective....
In all honesty, I'd like to question the motives behind getting breast implants. Why do women wear hard wire bras? Why do women like bigger boobs? Or is the better question, why do most WESTERN women want big boobs? Breast attraction is not hardwired into our brains; in fact, culture significantly impacts whether someone will find large breasts attractive or not. In the US, it seems most heterosexual men find large breasts attractive, and so women, in an attempt to gain attention or a higher social status among peers, will strive for larger breasts. If there were just women in the world, would we care that our boobs were big? Would we wear bras?
Lastly, I'm not an expert on competitions or anything, I just have a few friends who compete. But I think that, because of our culture, women with larger or fake breasts might have an advantage over those who don't. While it's been said that judges don't judge on breast size, don't you think it plays a factor, at least subconsciously?

There isn't specific competitions/categories where they differentiate breast enhancement or natural... But how I see it is the judges know.
Some judges may look and think subjectively: You know I don't really like breast implants, that girl there... sure her rack isn't as big, but if she really needed them she could always get them, but if they ever get tacky or out of style she doesn't have them now.
I think it's something that the judges may consider when making their evaluation (in some cases). I personally do not have breast implants (despite a modest 34A) and am getting into fitness competing/modelling. Although no one says "HEY! she's got a nice rack" when they see me, it doesn't leave opportunity for there to be comments like "ugh, she's so fake, her boobs are SOO not real." etc.
Hell, how I see it, I've got better things I'd like to show off than my boobs... But some women/men like them! All a matter of opinion

This is a refreshing POV. The way I see it...anyone could buy some nice perky tits if you have the money. Muscle you can't. You have to work had to build a fit body & that speaks more to me. I could never compete in bikini because it seems just like a T&A show to me. I want to be respected for my muscle.
