IFBB ELITE: Wellness Fitness division is intended for women who prefer a muscular physique without muscle separation, athletic and aesthetically pleasing, with a bigger body mass than in Bikini Fitness. From this point of view, Wellness Fitness is placed somewhere between Bikini Fitness and Women’s Physique.

Assessing of the physique, judging criteria and rounds are the same like Women’s Bikini Fitness. Competitors performs quarter turns in all rounds plus individual “I-walking” presentation in the finals. Vertical proportions (legs to upper body length) are ones of the key factors. Horizontal proportions (hips and waist to shoulder width) may favour women with a bit bigger hips, thighs and buttocks. There are four Wellness Fitness categories: up to 158 cm, up to 163 cm; up to 168 cm and over 168 cm.
