Greetings all,
Here a good one to ponder: Would bodybuilding be more popular in the Federation or the Klingon Empire? This is a tough one to call for me. I think that the Klingons would respect the discipline and will power needed to be a competitive bodybuilder, but their pre-judging might be a little messy because they would probably favor tearing the limbs from their competitors. Also, posing might require an element of hand to hand combat. Maybe that’s how the IFBB should award pro-cards: Last competitor left alive at the Nationals gets to go pro.
When it comes to Bodybuilding in the Federation on the other hand, they might simply not get it. I never seem to see anyone in the Federation actually just do something just because they want to do it. Everything they do always seems to have to have lofty altruistic motives. Doing something for yourself, just because you want to, seems like it would be a totally alien concept (no pun intended). Now if dieting and working out to extremes was somehow going to save some far off planet with pig-nosed people, they’d be all over it! But I doubt it would enter the mind of the winner of the Mr. United Federation of Planets contest screaming out “Yeah bitches!!” He’d probably get vaporized by a phaser from the Romulan judges.
Super-Jerry
