The judges will be looking to see the muscle definition in the back. If they cannot see it, they cannot score it!

All Muscle Models competitors should have a stage tan, the skin should look as flawless and even toned as possible.

The tan however should not be too dark as this can also distract from muscle definition. The judges will be looking

Excessive body/muscle glaze can distract from the competitors muscle definition.
