INDIVIDUAL AWARDS

The superpower of ego lifters everywhere.

Judging is based on PROFICIENCY in pecs bouncing, not aesthetics.

Eligible: Any man who posted at least one pecs-bouncing video to his social media (public accounts only) after 31 Oct 2021, and who will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

The pecs that make you drool like a bloodhound.

Eligible: Any man with a public social media account who will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

From soft fur patches to beastly manes, chest hair can be super sexy.

“Untrimmed” includes any chest that is not hairless or nearly hairless—even if the chest hair is clipped.

Eligible: Any man with a public social media account who will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

The most aesthetic pecs on a professional-level competitor.

Eligible: Any IFBB, IFBB Elite, or WNBF (including affiliates) pro with a public social media account who earned his pro card and who will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

Teenage gym bros at the peak of their youthful, Greco-Roman beauty. Even the gods are jealous.

Eligible: Any man with a public social media account having his 18th, 19th or 20th birthday between 1 Nov 2023 and 31 Oct 2024.

Let’s face it, men age differently (life ain’t fair). Some kings be rockin hard, tight muscle and supple skin well into middle age.

Eligible: Any man with a public social media account who will be at least 35 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.


CONTENT AWARDS

Nominations of content that includes erotic material are accepted. However, the nominated content will be judged solely on the pecs-focused, non-erotic, above-the-waist portions. Any erotic portions of the nominated content will be disregarded for judging purposes.

If the pecs bro depicted in the content and the content creator are not the same person, both individuals will receive an award.

That scorching pecs vid you looped and could not get out of your head.

Eligible: Any content posted to social media (public accounts only) between 1 Nov 2023 and 31 Oct 2024 in which every person depicted will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

When gym bros are not training, they’re usually flaunting their gainz—for the mirror, for their homies, for their boos, for their mamas, for randos on the street, for anyone who’s watching!

“Flaunting” includes all forms of showing off the pecs—including flexing, self-grabbing, self-poking, exiting a pool, shirtless running, calisthenics or weight training, going shirtless in public, etc.

Eligible: Any content posted to social media (public accounts only) between 1 Nov 2023 and 31 Oct 2024 in which every person depicted will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

Influencers love to give advice. And while some of this “advice” may be questionable, all we care about is how they look giving it!

Instructional or demonstration videos by shirtless coaches only.

Fitness videos made primarily for showing off—rather than demonstrating proper form—should instead be nominated for Best Pecs Flaunting Video.

Extra points for muscles glistening with sweat!

Eligible: Any content posted to social media (public accounts only) between 1 Nov 2023 and 31 Oct 2024 in which every person depicted will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

Crystalline water flowing over beefcakes wrapped in tight, supple skin makes every pecs fan… well, wet.

Eligible: Any content posted to social media (public accounts only) between 1 Nov 2024 and 31 Oct 2025 in which every person depicted will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2025.

Any open-hand-to-pecs content is eligible—casual bro-on-bro titty grabs, suntan lotion rubs, extended squeezes, full-on chest massages, intimate caresses, etc.

Self touch is not eligible for this award. Please nominate self-touching videos for Best Pecs Flaunting Video, instead.

Eligible: Any content posted to social media (public accounts only) between 1 Nov 2023 and 31 Oct 2024 in which every person depicted will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

Shimmering beefcakes lathered with oil… understand the assignment?!

Eligible: Any content posted to social media (public accounts only) between 1 Nov 2023 and 31 Oct 2024 in which every person depicted will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

Is there anything more enticing than a tight-fitting shirt hugging a pair of mouth-watering pecs?! T-shirts, compression shirts, tanks, golf shirts, polos, collared shirts buttoned up or partially unbuttoned are eligible.

No open or fully unbuttoned shirts.

Eligible: Any content posted to social media (public accounts only) between 1 Nov 2023 and 31 Oct 2024 in which every person depicted will be at least 18 years of age by 31 Oct 2024.

Any reflective surface qualifies as a “mirror.”

Camera may be held (or otherwise attached to) the gym bro depicted, mounted on a tripod or camera mount, or seated on a flat surface. Camera must be visible in photo and may not be held or operated by anyone other than the gym bro depicted.

Extra points for a clean mirror!

Pics only*. No Video.

*Including single-frame “reels” or “stories” displayed as video files, but are not actually videos.
