WHAT NEXT?
* Select an event from the FAME World Tour that you would like to set as your goal; register early (you save on entry fees that way - and it helps keep you motivated to stay on track with your Body Proud goals & you will be in the show program, when applicable); join the Event and the Category Group for which you want to compete; and have fun with your training! (Joining the event and group will allow you the opportunity to be a part of group discussions and stay updated on all new info!)
* Become familiar with the various Competition Categories (you may change or add categories up until the registration meeting prior to the show) so you know how to tailor your training.
* If you need a trainer use the Body Proud community to network. Search for someone who has experience training people successfully for competitions &/or a FAME Pro.
* Choose one or more of the following options which best suit your goal:
Options 1, 2, 3 are great for those wanting to learn the ropes. Options 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 are great for those who are anxious to fast forward through the Tier System quickly and avoid competing with those new to the competition stage.

1. Register to Compete!
* Enter either the Novice Class, Open Class, Advance Class or Pro Class (see new Tier System below)

2. Online Consultation Competition Prep
* This provides you the opportunity to learn which categories best suit their talents, physique & Body Proud goals.

3. Attend a FAME Camp
* FAME Camps are workshops lead by FAME Pro Athletes who teach you the essentials so that you can make the most of your stage experience. Since the contest only happens once and the judges can only give you points based on what you display, it's in your best interest to come fully prepared. Learn from the best of the best and allow the FAME Pros to be your source of information and guidance!
* Great to meet your fellow competitors and make friends who share your same interests.
* This is great for newcomers to competitions and can also be beneficial for seasoned athletes
* Following the FAME Camp you would become a Level 2 athlete and can compete in the Open Division
* Click Here for Upcoming FAME Camps

4. Audition at a FAME Idol
* FAME Idol allows you the opportunity to audition and present yourself in front of FAME Officials, Pros &/or Judges. Should they feel that you have what it takes to be eligible to compete in a higher Level, then you will be automatically granted that status - &/or given solid advice and feedback on how to proceed. This is great for those who want to practice getting contest ready before the big event, and for seasoned athletes who would like to fast forward in the circuit.
* Great for seasoned athletes and those who feel they are ready to take to the stage ASAP.
* Following the FAME Idol you will either be granted the opportunity to compete in Level 2, 3 or possibly 4 (depending on your competition history and if you are a Pro elsewhere)
* Click Here for Upcoming FAME Idols


5. Submit Request to FAME Judging Panel
* Submit your contest photos, placings and stats to the FAME Judging Panel. This is only available for seasoned athletes who have not yet competed with FAME. The Judges will then determine which Level you would best suit. Following that it is up to you to register within 30 days.
*

Apply Here.


FAME will consider many factors when determining eligibility for FAME Advanced Level Status including: ~ Competition History ~ Assessment of Quality of Physique
~ Physique Screening per Physique Screening Panel Guidelines – it is your responsibility to ensure you meet the drug testing criteria as outlined by the WNSO.

My question is I have never competed in a fame show, but competed in other shows in the open mens catagories, placeing 2nd and 4th places, where would that put me in your ranks? What do you mean by competeing at advanced levels (pro or national quilifier)? I am all new to this fame competitions, would like to try one out soon.

Hi Jerry. You would send us an email with some photos and the number of competitors in your division and your placing. Based on that you would either be able to register in Level 2 or 3.

When you win level 3 you advance to the Pro Class. Placing well in Level 3 allows you to compete as an Elite athlete.

Excited to have you compete with us.

Hey Frankie,

Yes, it seems like the online course would be your best bet to teach you the essentials of competition.

The FAME Lonestar is going to be a really fun competition, hosted by two FAME Pros, Kai & Jason Powell!

Oh Ok thank you for the reply I REALLY APPRECIATE IT:)

I am new to the fame stuff and would like to compete. I have only done fitness modeling so I would need to attend the camp and was wondering if there are any camps in Texas?

Reply to This

I am interesting in getting involved and competing as a novice in the Philippines (closest for me) and I read through most of the site and what I understand is that I need to attend a FAME camp or a virtual Famecamp first. I've been trying to get onto the vrtual fame camp site and I keep getting to a page that has a list of links...How do I register for the online fame camp?
Another question: What are the strength moves required for the figure routine round? Is the routine round in the Figure division more like a bodybuilding routine or Fitness routine in the other organizations?

Reply to This

Hi Ciliaris,

Great to have you on board for FAME Philippines! :-)

Now to answer your questions:

* The online camp has now been replaced with virtual consultations and guidance (see # 3). Athletes will benefit more from this option as it is much more individualized.

* There are no specific required moves for the Figure Routine round. It is up to you what you want to present. If you can do more complex strength moves that look easy then go for those, otherwise stick with more basic one - the key is you want them to look effortless!

* The routine round is your option. Props are allowed so you can be very creative. You can use all the elements of Fitness, however you are not permitted to do any inverted moves such as flips. Similar to bodybuilding, you should be showcasing your physique by way of poses (can be creative with them).

Enjoy your training! Excited to have you compete with us!

My question is related to that of ciliaris's. Is a FAME camp (or the consultations) mandatory to compete at the novice level or is it possible to be a walk-in competitor? Or to avoid complications, could I just respond to the rsvp of the comp I want to attend and register? It so happened that when I checked recently, the camp was already finished and it's sort of impractical for me to go abroad just to attend another. Thanks.
