Bikini Wellness - Ireland

The Bikini Wellness category is for ladies that normally would compete in the bikini category but their physique is not balanced. Glutes and Quads will have a few percent more body fat compared to Bikini athletes. Physique will be out of proportion compared to top half, bottom heavy so to speak. Abs should be slightly visible.
