When Josey Lynn Davis returned to bodybuilding this year after a 10-year hiatus, there was one big change.
The now 45-year-old had previously competed as a man in the top five in 15 National Physique Committee competitions. In 2017, she came out as a transgender woman.
“I didn’t know what would be said about me, so I was scared,” Davis, who lives near Knoxville, Tenn., tells The Post.
But after a bit of Google searching, she found an organization where she would feel comfortable showing her stuff: the International Association of Trans Bodybuilders and Powerlifters (IATBP), an organization that puts on a competition every October in Atlanta. Not only was Davis the first trans woman to compete, but she also won first place in the women’s bikini division.
“It was like being born,” she says of her experience in last month’s show. “Working toward this was such a goal: to come out of my shell, to prove to myself that I can be confident.”
People across the transgender spectrum are increasingly finding their foothold in bodybuilding, a sport long stereotyped for a macho and intimidating culture. Whether they choose to compete in trans-specific circuits, like Davis, or non-trans competitions, they aim for the same goal: to be strong.
“I want to push it and encourage other people to give it a shot,” says Davis.
For the athletes who prefer to participate in the trans-specific circuit, competing in a welcoming environment is a priority.
“The atmosphere is great for an individual like myself who doesn’t feel like they fit in,” says 29-year-old Brooklyn resident Wes Phills, a trans man who competed in last year’s IATBP (then known as IATB) show and won first place overall. “Having that kind of platform is awesome.”
IATBP got its start in 2014 under the name FTM Fitness World Bodybuilding Competition. The show has anywhere between six to eight competitors every year, and the organizers aim to grow that number in the future, potentially bringing the competitions abroad.
“We’re trying to support trans people around the world to compete in bodybuilding and powerlifting,” says Bucky Motter, a 58-year-old former bodybuilder who organizes the event — and who identifies as trans and gender nonconforming.
A key to acceptance is visibility, Motter says. Each year, the show takes place in a venue where there’s professional lighting and music pumping through speakers — showing the participants that they’re celebrated.
“The audience participates,” adds Motter. “They’re cheering everyone on. If that doesn’t make you feel safe, I don’t know what does.”
It’s not just the audience, but also the other bodybuilders in competitions that can inspire others to join in.
“I like seeing [bodybuilders] being happy — they’re competing, but they’re not really competitive,” says 53-year-old Manhattan resident Bo Headlam, who plans on competing in the 2022 Gay Games, set to be held in Hong Kong.
That said, not all trans bodybuilders are making their impact in the trans-specific circuit.
“I’m just as much a man as every other guy on the stage — maybe I have to work a little harder, but that’s fine,” says Alex Tilinca, an 18-year-old Long Island resident who began his transition at 12. He won awards in three classes at the Victor Martinez Legends Championships — a non-trans-specific show held in The Bronx in August. He snagged first place in teen classic physique, and second in the junior and novice divisions.
“It felt like the world was telling me ‘You’re on the right track, keep going,’ ” says Tilinca, now a freshman at Hofstra University. “It was a confirmation that what I’m doing isn’t for nothing.”
Tilinca got his start bodybuilding at 16 just to put on some weight, and began working out at Bev Francis Powerhouse Gym, a famed bodybuilding gym in Syosset, LI. There, mentors encouraged him to take his progress further and compete.
“I was under the impression I couldn’t because I’m trans,” he says.
These days, Tilinca is taking a few years off to bulk up more muscle, which takes time, and focus on his studies. But he’s found a community and plans on taking his competitions even further.
“Bodybuilders, they get it,” he says. “You come from a place where you’re trying to better your body and feel better in your body. They don’t judge you for being trans.”

Hiii I'm mtf if it changes anything and I'm hoping I can receive some help. I'm really trying to improve my general flexibility, but primarily in my lower body. I've played soccer for most of my life up until a couple of years before I started to transition, I blame me for not taking stretching seriously and my fairly often injuries to my lack of flexibility along with it running in my family. Is there anything alongside stretching that can help improve my flexibility, also are there any stretches I should focus on?
Lastly, I feel my calf's are to big and give off a masculine vibe, is there any healthy way to shrink the size of them besides not working them? (which I already do and have been for years besides anything from my work)
I burn a lot of calories! I do HIIT 3x/week and resistance training 2x/week alongside a ton of mental effort with my math degree, high level competitive gaming, and chess. I'm about 2 months hrt, and I cannot eat more than 3.2k cals om a high protein high fat low carb diet, also I weigh 150lbs at 180cm (5'9) at 22.
My weight cant seem to move because I'm unable to eat enough due to financial reasons, do I need to notice a constant gain in weight, maintain a stable increase, followed by a stable decrease to weight cycle? Or is my high activity lifestyle actually a form of weight cycling within 1 or 2 pounds? I have noticed muscle loss and some hip growth, along with breast buds but I was wondering if there are cons to this approach: I dont know if fat recomposition is happening faster like this, and I dont know how this can affect my breast growth. Does anyone have some thoughts knowledge they can share? Love you all ❤️❤️
sorry if the title wasn't that clear. A couple months back I started the process to hopefully transitioning! and im super happy about it
I am looking for a "femboy" or more feminine workout that will hopefully help me get more feminine looks hopefully. While I use a smartwatch (Galaxy watch 4), is it possible to find exercises that samsung have in their health app?
so far i found some programs as an app and as a webpage but to track it would be amazing
sorry if this posts makes no sense but thanks
So I'm a 30-ish transfem enby, and before my egg cracked I enjoyed doing Stronglifts 5x5, mainly due to it have an app and being easy to follow. I have been on estrogen about 11 months total(9 months, a break due to liver issues and then another couple months) and was wondering if anybody has any experience with stronglifts and could recommend a similar program that would help build more feminine muscle mass and strength. If it matters I'm 5'6", around 150-160 pounds and 20-ish% body fat and still mainly look like a skinny geek.
Hey all, I hope life is treating you well and recent news isn't getting you down.
I'm back on testosterone, but it's a very small dose, and it's exactly what I needed. The tiredness is gone, my motivation is back, and I just feel so much more like myself. it's small enough of a dose that I'm not worried about side effects nor being masculinized any further.
I'm working out more...well, running more. My interest in lifting weights is just kinda gone, but I've come to terms with that. I think that phase of my life is over, for several reasons that I won't get into.
On that note, I started running when I wake up, basically fasted. I actually love it? I'm up at 4am and out the door by 4:15, so I'm able to get a good 30 minutes of running in. It's a nice time to run because it's so quiet and calm and no one is around, really. Occasionally I'll see people preparing to go to work but otherwise I'm by myself. I logged my first 5k in months last week!
Between that and yoga, I think I've found a fitness routine I can actually stick to. Some mornings I'm too tired, to run, but I think I can do yoga at home on those days. Now if only I can get my wife to wake up that early haha 😅
Sucks because I signed up for a year contract with the gym, but whatever! I may go in and do some lifts from time to time. The point is, I'm doing what I want to do, not what I feel obligated to do! This is fitness as therapy! 🥰
