Bodybuilding is the use of progressive resistance exercise to control
and develop one's musculature. An individual who engages in this
activity is referred to as a bodybuilder. In competitive amateur and
professional bodybuilding, bodybuilders appear in lineups doing
specified poses, and later perform individual posing routines, for a
panel of judges who rank competitors based on criteria such as symmetry,
muscularity, and conditioning. Bodybuilders prepare for competition
through a combination of dehydration, fat loss, oils, and tanning (or
tanning lotions) which make their muscular definition more distinct.
Some well-known bodybuilders include Charles Atlas, Steve Reeves, Reg
Park, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Lou Ferrigno. Currently, IFBB
professional bodybuilder Phil Heath from the United States holds the
title of Mr. Olympia. The winner of the annual Mr. Olympia contest is
generally recognized as the world's top professional male bodybuilder.
