Stage Walk Questions Answered

Published: Wed, 01/03/24

Good Morning,

As we think prep for Fitness Atlantic at Mohegan Sun.

Let's answer a couple stage posing questions:

1. What side of the stage do contestants walk out from?

2. What type of walk do contestants do?

This way everyone get more stage time

When compared to a "T" walk when you start with an empty stage and one person at a time walks out. This may seem like you get more stage time but everyone on stage works better.

Each contestant is then scored by the judges and these scores are tabulated. Which means there doesn't have to be a whole lot of comparisons and call outs.

We score based on the division criteria on each round. When we score based on criteria for each round means that if you are in Bikini Diva you are scored in swimsuit as well as Gown. If you are in Diva Fitness Model you are scored in swimsuit and theme wear rounds. If you are in Men's Fitness Model you are scored in swimsuit and formal wear.

This is why presentation is so important. This isn't simply only placing people next to each other and a physique contest of who is the most ripped unless you are in Figure or Muscle Model as those divisions are more focused on physique only.

Those videos are from Preliminaries and more videos can be found on the Fitness Atlantic YouTube.

When searching videos look for the most recent years.

My favorite parts of the show are more Finals Gala with the Opening Number, Theme Wear Spectacular and the Parade of Gowns. Those are more choreographed with the music and lighting.

Maybe I will see you at a Prep Workshop?
