BDSM is an exciting journey. There are lots to discover! But just when you think you’ve dug all there is to dig, more surprises come. That’s exactly what I thought when an ex-partner told me about male muscle suits. To be specific, it’s how fellow BDSM players use muscle suits in their scenes.

Muscle suits play a very interesting part in BDSM. They make the fantasy come alive. They make it easy to get lost in the sexual fancy.

I’ve tried a few muscle suits myself. It wasn’t love at first wear. But when I found my fated one (I mean muscle suit), I totally got why others make it a constant prop in their BDSM play.

So take it from me— choosing the right muscle suit matters. It elevates the whole experience. Not just the BDSM fantasy. It’s also crucial that you get a muscle suit that complements both partners. It’s worth investing time to find the perfect one for you.

What Is A Muscle Suit?

A muscle suit acts like a second skin, with all the muscles and bulges intact. It makes your physique look absolutely banging. A first-rate muscle suit is anatomically accurate, copying even the veins of real, toned muscles.

But most importantly, for us BDSM enthusiasts, they add that inexplicable adrenaline to the BDSM experience.

Types of Male Muscle Suits

There are lots of BDSM plays you may want to try. So, there are also various male muscle suits designed and crafted to match your freak.

Full-Body Male Muscle Suit

A full-body male muscle suit covers you from head to toe. If you’re looking for a complete body change, leave a space in your closet for this one.

A full-body male muscle suit is the closest you can get to Steve Rogers’ transformation and being Captain America. Can you feel the buzz?

When you get this on, you don’t need to worry about looking swell in one area but not in another. It’s a wear-and-go muscle suit. Since it covers the whole body, your proportions are insane at every angle.

It’s a bit more challenging to put on and take off but for that whole Captain America effect? It’s more than worth it!

Torso/Chest Male Muscle Suit

You wear this one to give your upper body a nice boost. It’s all about your chest and abs. This suit design gives you a well-built look without covering the whole body. It’s perfect for half-nudes you can post on Grindr.

I suggest getting this suit if you plan to keep your pants on for your BDSM play. Or if you just want to give your partner a little tease. Physically speaking, those who have a heavier bottom part (thigh and legs) can make their body look proportional with this muscle suit.

Plus, they’re less restrictive than full-body suits. This allows more flexibility in movement.

Abs-Only Male Muscle Suit

An abs-only muscle suit targets just your midsection. It makes your abs look more defined and strong. Other muscle parts are also available if you’re looking for them.

Recently, I met someone who has a back muscle fetish and makes his boyfie wear a fake muscle back. In BDSM, an area-specific suit often answers a kink or fetish. But it can also be because the wearer is insecure about that area.

This type of male muscle suit design is great if you want less weight when doing the nasty. It’s very easy to wear, but double-check if the muscle suit is pasted securely.

Arms Male Muscle Suit

For my dudebros out there, an arms male muscle suit will give you those guns you’re always on about. You’ll instantly get drool-worthy biceps and triceps. Imagine flexing muscular, bulky arms. It’s real-instant gym results!

Like the area-specific abs or back muscle suits, arms male muscle suit targets certain kinks. But since arms are the universal symbol of strength, this can also be for BDSM plays where strength is the focus.

Thigh and Legs Male Muscle Suit

The totes opposite of the torso/chest are the bottom part of the male body: thighs and legs. These muscle suits are incredible with booty-hugging joggers or sweatpants. Some even come with an anal hone or giant dildos. Triple the fun!

Different Materials for a Male Muscle Suit

Male muscle suits are made from various materials. Each one has its pros and cons. Knowing what they are will help you choose better.

Let me share with you the common ones.

Silicone

Silicone muscle suits are the best! They’re the most realistic, which is a must if your kink has some heavy touching involved. It’s the one that most closely resembles actual skin texture.Though it’s very lifelike, they’re also heavier. So if you’re a twink with no strength, a silicone muscle suit can be quite the workout. Plus, with that heavy standard comes a hefty price tag. You won’t feel cheated with that premium craftsmanship though!

Foam

For those saving pennies or kinks that involve visual BDSM kinks, foam muscle suits can cut it. They’re lightweight and the most comfortable choice for extended wear. Their soft and cushiony feel allows for prolonged use without causing discomfort.

But in terms of realism, foam suits aren’t the best picks. They can’t even hold a candle to silicone suits.

Lycra

If your BDSM play involves a lot, and I mean a lot, of movement that demands flexibility, lycra’s the way to go. Lycra often goes hand in hand with cardboard or sponge to create the whole muscly look.

While lycra offers you that motion freedom, it lacks realistic muscle definition. It’s great for cartoonish play though.

Factors to Consider

You can’t just blindly buy your male muscle suit. Unless you’re an expert in all things BDSM and muscle suits. If you’re not, you must think about a few things. These factors will make your purchase worthwhile. It’ll also add value to your play.

First rule to any shopping you do is to do your research first! Look at what’s available to you. Compare them based on your needs. Always be informed and you can avoid most regrets later.

Other factors you can’t omit:

Body Type and Fit

Most BDSM play involves real muscles. So, you’ll want your muscle suit to look natural and enhanced just right. Find a good fit and don’t get an obnoxious measurement!

A suit that fits well means you’re comfortable. When you’re comfortable, you’re confident.

You and your partner will be more immersed in the BDSM play too. This won’t happen if you’re distracted by a muscle suit that sags or chokes the life out of you! I don’t think constantly adjusting it during play is attractive either.

Intended Use

Think about how and when you will use the muscle suit. Private play with a partner is different from public scenarios. Each has its own concerns.

For private play, comfort is a priority. You can go for more detailed suits that give the best textile experience. You don’t have to worry about long durations.

For public play or parties, durability matters. You may also need to consider ease of putting on and taking off. Unless you have a humiliation kink and you want to struggle with your suit in public, think of these first.

Sexual Appeal

A male muscle suit’s design and aesthetics is directly related to its sexual appeal. In most cases, it’s all about the look and feel. So choose a suit that excites you and your partner. It should set the right mood right away!

Customization options are great for this. You can add personal touches and make the suit feel more yours.

Durability and Maintenance

When you take the leap and buy an expensive male muscle suit, it’s not wise to just let it rot after your play. You want something that lasts. But that will only happen if you make it last!

This is especially true for BDSM, where the suit might face some rough use. Here are five tips to keep your suit in shape:

1. Clean it after every use. After every use, not every two uses, got it? Use mild soap and warm water.

2. Air dry it. No blow dryer! Avoid direct sunlight.

3. Store it properly. Keep its original box and put it in a cool, dry place. If you live alone, you can even put it in a display case.

4. Check for wear and tear regularly. This is so you can repair small damages right away.

5. Follow manufacturer instructions. “But Google said—” Nope. Follow your muscle suit’s manufacturer. They know their products best.

Budget Considerations

Male muscle suits come in a range of prices. From affordable to high-end options, there’s something for everyone. If you can, don’t just go for the cheapest! Make sure it meets your needs.

With higher prices, you get better quality and realism. Affordable options might lack finesse but are good for beginners. Learn how to balance cost with quality.

From my experience, investing more is worth it. The experience is more enjoyable. A good suit lasts longer too. It’s a better investment in the long run.
