Recognition of the "Smile" pose as an official pose in bodybuilding


Recognition of the "Smile" pose as an official pose in bodybuilding
The Issue
This petition is very important to me personally. Gunter Schlierkamp, a renowned bodybuilder, was very disappointed that he was not allowed to perform the "Smile" pose at Mr. Olympia. I personally would love to see this pose in the sport of bodybuilding in the coming years.
The "Smile" pose is a powerful and aesthetically pleasing pose that expresses both strength and joy. It would be an enrichment for the sport and a tribute to Gunter Schlierkamp if this pose were officially recognized.
There are many poses in the sport of bodybuilding such as the Most Muscular pose or the Side Chest pose. Introducing a new pose would not be a precedent (Source: International Federation of BodyBuilding & Fitness). It's time for change and innovation in this sport.
