bodybuilding sculptures
Is bodybuilding just about having the biggest muscles?

Doesn’t that seem like a silly metric for a sport? Bodybuilders talk about themselves as artists molding their body into a sculpture but what is artistic about trying to get as big as possible? Have I misunderstood what the real goal in bodybuilding is?
I still just don’t see what is artistic about trying to get your muscles large and defined and even. I’m not sure what creativity is involved. Aren’t all bodybuilders basically trying to create the same sculpture?

They also want the muscles to be the correct shape and form, not just the biggest.
I think this is more an artistic function than a sport, sort of like a beauty contest.
