    Muscle satisfaction and physical self-concept are variables that together have been studied infrequently, since they are mostly directed towards the population that attends gyms and physical activity centers, so the objective of this research was to analyze the relationship between muscle satisfaction and physical selfconcept in gym users, within a sample of 125 male and female participants. The study had a quantitative, non-experimental and cross-sectional approach, and validated and standardized instruments were used: Muscle Appearance Satisfaction Scale (MASS) in its Spanish adapted version, Escala de Satisfacción Muscular (ESM) and the Cuestionario de Autoconcepto Físico (CAF). The results show a low positive correlation between muscle satisfaction with the strength dimension (Rho=0.263, p<0.003), low negative with general physical self-concept (Rho=-0.205, p<0.022) and low negative with general selfconcept (Rho=-0.206, p<0.021); specifically, the mean of muscle satisfaction was 51.5; in addition, there were no statistically significant differences between the means of men and women in muscle satisfaction (U=1559, p>0.05). It is concluded that muscle satisfaction is related to three dimensions of the physical self-concept variable.
