Character customization in NBA 2K25 is quite detailed. You can customize a player to your exact specifications, including adding your own face to them. Now, one of the most important aspects of your MyPLAYER’s visual characteristics is their Body Type. However, you won’t get access to it right away.

Instead, you need to unlock the different Body Types in NBA 2K25 before being able to use them. You should also note that this feature only serves an aesthetic purpose, and will not affect your abilities or stats in any way.

Nevertheless, if you’re looking to change your Body Type in NBA 2K25, here’s what you need to do.

To unlock different body types in the game, you must first complete Gatorade Gym workouts in The City. Four of these workouts will be available to you each week. If you manage to get three stars on all four of these, you’ll unlock a Body Type, in addition to a temporary Turbo Meter Boost.

Once unlocked, follow the steps given below to change your Body Type:

  • Head to the MyPLAYER option from the main menu and select the Appearance tab.
  • Choose the next Appearance tab that appears, and then press Y (on Xbox) or Triangle (PlayStation) to Edit Head.
  • Now, go down and select the Body option.
  • In the Body Shape tab, you can choose the Body Types you want to use for your character.

The different Body Types available to you in NBA 2K25 are:

  • Slim
  • Compact
  • Muscular
  • Average
  • Swole

Once unlocked, these will be permanent. If you want to unlock all of them, try to get the Workout Warrior Badge. This will also get you a permanent Turbo Meter Boost, and the Body Types will be accessible across all saves. The Workout Warrior Badge can be unlocked by finishing all 12 Gatorade Gym workouts.
