In the annual amateur Bodybuilding Championship in Gosport (Hampshire) athletes aged from 20 to 70 years participate. They perform in a number of categories, including the Miss Bikini contest. Some carefully cover themselves with an artificial tan to emphasize the relief of their muscles, while others focus on physical exercises. In this article we will talk about what is hidden from the eyes of the public behind the scenes of such competitions.
