hardbodies

Toned fitness enthusiasts

Hardbodies is slang for people—usually young—with toned, muscular physiques.

The term emphasizes physical fitness as sexual attractiveness: The beach was full of hardbodies in bikinis.

It belongs to the vocabulary of casual objectification, treating the body as the person's defining feature.
