Triple-A Fitness & Aerobics
Ms. Fitness & Mr. Fitness - Legacy
Regional Qualifier Rules
Overview
The Triple-A Fitness & Aerobics, Ms. Fitness and Mr. Fitness Legacy events are held to determine who is the
best overall fitness athlete, for each division.
To make this determination, each participant is judged in
three
different areas of total fitness. Those areas are: Skill and Agility, which is judged in the Fitness
Routine Round; Body Balance and Musculature, which is judged in the Comparisons or
Physique Round; and
Mind-Spirit, which is judged in the Spokesperson Round. Contestants may
compete in the following categories
and divisions: Adult, Juniors, and Masters. Junior Division
is age 8 to 18. 17 and 18 year-olds may compete
in an adult division. Masters Division is Age
40 plus. Masters may compete in the adult division. The scores
are based on a total possible
score of 45 points, and each round will count as 1/3 of the total score. Special
Note: The Junior Division does not have a "Comparisons Round" so their total possible score will be 30 points,
and each round will count as half of their total score.

Fitness Routine Round
The Fitness Routine should demonstrate an overall balance of strength, flexibility, endurance, speed,
aerobics, agility, and dance. The costume must be suitable for aerobic-fitness activity
and suitable for all
audiences. It can be a 1-piece or 2-piece costume, and both men and women
should be properly supported and
protected. Clean, white fitness shoes are preferred, along with
white socks. Women and girls should wear
tights (flesh-tone preferred, but not mandatory) if
their costumes are cut higher than the mid-thigh range.
All routines must be no shorter than
75 seconds, and no longer than 90 seconds. There is a plus or minus
5-second grace period. All
routines at the District Qualifier level will be judged in the following areas:
Execution (how
well & safely the moves are done), Endurance (speed and agility, how strong the performance is),
and Excitement (entertaining and engaging). Up to 15 points total.

Comparisons Round
In this round, each athlete (juniors excluded) is judged on his or her fitness appearance. Except for the
Masters Division, women must wear a 2-piece swimsuit and men should wear
"Speedo-style" swimwear. In the
Masters Division, although they retain the option to dress in
the same manner as the Open Division, the women
have the option of wearing a 1-piece swimsuit, Tankini or mid-thigh length unitard. The Master's men have the
option of wearing a boxer or
trunk-cut swimsuit, tank-top, or mid-thigh length unitard. Thong or string cut
swim suits are
strictly prohibited for all athletes. All women participating in this round should wear heels
while the men may wear fitness shoes, sandals, or go with bare feet. The judges will be looking
for body
proportion not size, and a "reasonable amount of body fat". Posing or flexing can disqualify an athlete from
this round. This is not a bodybuilding competition! The judges look
for an even muscular balance throughout
the entire body, and will be comparing each athlete's body in its relaxed state. Up to 15 points total.

Spokesperson Round
The final round is used to determine which athlete is best suited to represent the fitness industry through
Seminars, Lectures, Workshops, Print Work and Camera Readiness. In this round,
each athlete must demonstrate
their ability to Walk, Speak and Present themselves in formal attire, which is a tuxedo for Men & Junior boys,
formal evening gown for women, and party dress
or formal for Junior girls. Each speech should showcase mind,
body and spirit connection to wellness as a whole. Wellness can relate to physical fitness, the fitness and
wellness of a home, the community or world. The speech should not be shorter than 30 seconds, or longer than
75 seconds.

Advancing After the District Qualifier
The top 5 winners will advance to the Ms. Fitness & Mr. Fitness, Legacy Crown Championships held at the
annual Triple-A Fitness & Aerobics International Grand Finals. If there are fewer than ten (10) athletes in any
division, the head judge will make the determination as to how many from each division will advance to the
finals. The prizes awarded at each District Qualifier may vary from event to event, and may be different each
year. Special Note: Ms. Fitness USA may invited the top three (3) athletes in the Women's Open Division to the
Ms. Fitness USA/World event, held in Las Vegas each September.
