UNIVERSE CHAMPIONSHIPS
(Redirected from Miss Physique)
The 'Universe Championships' are an annual bodybuilding event organised by the National Amateur Bodybuilders Association (NABBA). It has a number of competitions: 'NABBA Mr. Universe' (amateur and professional), 'Miss Physique', and 'Miss Figure'.
First held in 1948, the contest was initially only for amateur male bodybuilders - but a separate contest for professionals was added in 1952. The NABBA defines amateur as someone who has "never entered and accepted prize money in an advertised professional event". Miss Physique, a women's contest was added in 1966 and Miss Figure was introduced in 1986.
Please note that the IFBB previously organised a competition called ''IFBB Mr. Universe''. This changed its name to the World Amateur Bodybuilding Championships in 1976.
Mr. Universe is a kind of beauty contest, but much less publicized than its sister contest, Miss Universe. The rules are similar and the process similar to that of ''Miss Universe'', but at ''Mr. Universe'', there is less emphasis on beauty and facial attractiveness and instead the judging is based on the sheer muscularity of the contestants.
