"LETS GET PHYSICAL!" - The 'Body' category breakdown

At a Ball you see those who practiced hours of dance to improve for the win; those who have pumped their hallways back and forth for hours in runway and those who took theIr creative visions to the max for effects. You rarely put much thought into those who train hours upon hours to improve upon their physique for the body categories.

We love to oogle the WBT (women, butch & transmen) who strip down to next to nothing in order to put their bodies on display for us to judge. While the women "shake what their mama gave them", the male figures pose and flex for the audience's delight. What we don't take into consideration is that these cats have sub-categories because much like our fingerprints, all bodies are NOT created equal.

Womens Body breaks down into four sub-categories:

• Model's Body - Slim and proportionate. This sub-category reflects a bikini models physique. Toned without much body fat.
  
• Athletic Body - Muscular yet feminine. This sub-category reflects a body builder's physique. Flexibility, strength and little to no body fat.
  
• T&A - Hourglass or Figure 8 shape. This sub-category reflects a strippers physique. Ample breasts, thighs and booty are the criteria.
  And Lastly...
  
• Luscious - Plus-sized but neat. This sub-category reflects a thicker T&A physique where even though the body is thick, the measurements are still proportionate to each other in order to appear hourglass shaped.
  

Butch/Trans Body breaks down into three sub-categories:

• CatBoy - Slim and lightly cut. This sub-category is for those who have just started working out and toning up. Their body is still soft but the cuts are starting to form.
  
• Junior - Moderately Muscular. This sub-category is those who are midway bulked up and cuts are more easily distinct.
  
• Senior - BEEFCAKE. This sub-category is for those who are completely buff. Massive muscles, deep cuts and ownership of the coveted "Iliad's crest".
  

Now while the women shake and gyrate to sell their bodies, the butch and transmen pose like Apollo to showcase theirs. The women display acrobatic skills while the male figures challenge each other in calisthenics.

This is not a category for just anyone. Much like body building competition, one must train to maintain their bodies to compete. Exercise, proper diet, proper hydration and skin upkeep is crucial for this category. Excessive scarring or stretch marks are deterrents to the judges as well. You must take pride in your body and treat it like a well-oiled machine.
