Abstract
The chapter examines the intersections of sports, lifestyle, and masculinities through various lenses. It uses examples such as male celebrity and bodybuilding to illustrate hegemonic masculinity in the sports world and the emerging phenomenon of lifestyle sports to show how traditional masculinities are being challenged. The paper concludes with comments on the future of sports and lifestyle research.
