The gym rate badge has always been a favorite among gamers in the NBA 2K community as it boosts your player's physical attributes without extra hard work. In Next Gen, one has to grind the Gym Rat Challenge in the Gatorade Training Facility and complete three-star or higher quality workouts 50 times to unlock the Gym Rat badge.

In NBA 2K22 Next gen, it doesn't show up as a stat but is rather an "always active" feature for your player. 2K Sports producer Zach Timmerman engaged with concerned fans on Twitter and clarified the change in NBA 2K22.

In next gen there is no +4 to physicals. Its an "under the hood" modifier to the results that can occur in the game when these physical attributes are used. Gym Rat essentially turns this modifier on at all times without needing to go to the gym
