Heritage Classic Men
Rules

Important Notice – Tanning Products:

The IFBB prohibits all tanning products that can be wiped off.
An official will inspect the tan of all athletes backstage. If the tan can be removed simply by wiping, the athlete will be required to remove the product before stepping on stage.

Additional Guidelines:

  • The tanning must not contain gold shine, glitter, or any reflective additives.
  • Only natural-looking tan shades are allowed.
  • Tanning must be evenly applied and must not stain clothing, towels, or the stage.

To avoid disqualification or delays, athletes are strongly encouraged to use professional, competition-approved tanning products that meet these requirements.

Attire

 

  • Bottoms: Traditional Thai pants (provided by the organization, free size)

  • Length: Mid-thigh or just above the knee

  • Color: Dark brown (traditional Thai tone)

  • Upper Body: Bare chest — no shirts, jackets, or fabric covering the torso


Accessories — Men

 

❌ Prohibited:

  • Earrings, necklaces, chokers, or any modern/western-style jewelry

  • Piercings are not allowed

    • If a piercing is difficult to remove, it must be covered (e.g., with a small bandage or suitable covering).

Posing Attire Requirements

 

The posing trunks (posing slip) must be one solid color and have a minimum height of 15 cm on each side (measured vertically at the narrowest point).
No multi-color designs, logos, metallic finishes, or patterns are allowed. The suit must be clean, well-fitted, and present a professional appearance.
Athletes not complying with these requirements may be asked to change their attire before being allowed on stage.

Round 1: Line-up & Mandatory Poses:

At the start of Round 1, all athletes will come on stage together in a single line-up, standing side by side. During this phase, you will be asked to perform the mandatory poses. The head judge will announce each pose, and you must follow the instructions exactly as given.

If you perform the wrong pose or miss a cue, the stage manager will correct you in a clear and respectful way. It is essential that you always pay close attention to and follow the stage manager’s directions throughout the round.

After the initial round of mandatory poses, the head judge may instruct the stage manager to reposition athletes within the line-up. This allows the judges to evaluate all competitors under the best lighting and viewing angles.

Mandatory poses and Your Favourite Classic Pose

Round 2: Individual Posing Routine:

Each athlete must perform a solo posing routine of MAXIMUM 60 seconds. Music must be provided on a USB stick only.

Essential Guidelines for Music Submission:

  • You are free to choose any music you like for your routine.
  • However, traditional Thai or culturally inspired music is strongly encouraged to highlight the spirit and theme of the Heritage Classic.
  • The USB stick must contain only one audio file—no folders, no additional songs.
  • The file must be in a standard audio format (e.g., .mp3 or .wav) and must be tested to ensure it works.
  • If your USB stick is not functioning or you do not bring music, the DJ will select a random song from their own library.
  • The DJ and organizers will not download or stream music from YouTube or any online platform. You are fully responsible for bringing your own music.
Communicate Clearly with the DJ:

You must inform the DJ how and when you want your music to start:

  • Do you want it to start before you walk on stage?
  • Do you want it to start as soon as you are on stage?
  • Or will you give the DJ a specific cue to start the music?

Clear instructions are essential—we operate on strict timelines, and delays due to miscommunication will not be accepted.
