No idea who i had to adress this to so i just put it up here since we are the section who deals with this difference in category/opinion the most.
can there please be a special subsection for the MP pro's? no one here gives a flying fuk about them because it's ... well... gay as fuk and not even close to what i understand to be "bodybuilding" ...2 years of training, pretty face, hair and an instagram profile seems to be what it takes.
good for them, but they will get more respect in their own subforum instead of getting crapped on here.

I care. Nah I don't but if we can have a whole thread that's continually updated for Jason Genova then MP guys posting occasionally shouldn't be an issue.
A pattern in the chaos.

Personally I don't think a new subsection is needed, why don't the Physique competitors just post in the Fitness Competition subsection of the Forum?
edit: If that isn't a good idea, I agree with everyone.

True, there will probably be more people talking about it if it had its own subsection.

Have them post in a thread specifically for their needs, like the Ramy/Jason threads then.Originally Posted by flangmasterj

How many threads on a daily basis would fall into this category? It wouldn't do any good to add a section if it will be sparsely visited.

The section could include bikini, bodyfitness, athletic fitness, mens physique, womans physique etc.

Thanks for given attention to the matter! Well since the MP pros are all about PR it wouldn't surprise me it would become a frequent visited site/section for them to gain some popularity. And ofcourse the 1001022837 new MP athletes competing every yearOriginally Posted by ForumSentinel

Considering their presence on social media (FB/Instagram/Twitter), it would a fair thought to think that they would merge here with Q/A threads, while attracting their followers at the same time.Originally Posted by ForumSentinel
I agree with this as well, merging every sub-division of the IFBB into another section would really benefit them.Originally Posted by Jaixs
Men's Physique/ Bikini/ etc. all posting under one section would really make that section active, especially since they're more "media" driven than bodybuilding.

Bit of a joke division. Guy with the prettiest smile and gayest hairdo wins. Not the guy with the best physique.
Spike92 is 15.
^ place this in your sig to remind the world that Spike92 is indeed 15 and will never be anything other than 15.

Agreed. With it gaining so much popularity, it should have its own section and not be here

As Roro said I'm suprised BB.com hasn't done this yet as 99% of bodybuilding nowadays is Physique or Bikini cause those categories seem to attract people who like to post about what they are doing or eating every second of the day and would easily make that subsection the busiests after the Misc.Originally Posted by ForumSentinel

So now i'll ask you ForumSentinel, still think it would be used sparsely? Those attention seeking fukkers would not be able to help themselves.

I don't think there's enough activity.
We're dodging more ninjitsu attacks than Flex Wheeler. We're ducking more bullets than George Farah. We're facing more death than a kid leg pressing at Branch Warren's gym.
You can't stop us. You can't hold us back.
IFBB brahs über alles.
