beach bodies
Fit shoreline physiques
Beach bodies are physiques considered attractive enough to display in swimwear—toned, lean, and conforming to current beauty standards.
The term appears in fitness marketing and magazine headlines, especially before summer: Get your beach body in six weeks!
The phrase has drawn criticism for implying that ordinary bodies need transformation before appearing at beaches.
