Body Image vs Body Type for female athletes

Abstract

My senior project has to do with the difference between these two terms used in society. I have researched and interviewed female athletes and how they feel about their bodies( this could include off season and on season). I want to normalize the importance of a female athlete's strength and show that it is far more important than their looks and how important it is to normalize any type of body that a female has. I dig deep into the two terms and how the two often confused by society. I really enjoyed learning about this topic from a deeper perspective.
