    The main goal of this project was to demonstrate the relationship between body image and irrational beliefs in user’s gym. It was applied to 124 participants, of which, through exclusion criteria, the population was reduced to 103 users. The Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) was used to evaluate body image, which measures concern about body image; while, the Irrational Beliefs Questionnaire (TCI) was used to evaluate irrational beliefs. The analysis of these variables was performed through the Sperm's Rho test, we worked with the level of concern for body image (CI) and the dimensions and/or factors of the TCI, being able to observe that there is no significant correlation between the variables (with r= .246 F1; r= .215 F2; r= .252 F7), which suggests that, if the frequency of worry about HF increases, the ideas belonging to irrational beliefs such as: Need for Approval, High self-expectations and Helplessness in the face of change, increase. There is an inverse proportional correlation between the body image concern variable and factor 7 (Problem avoidance), / with r= -, 196, which indicates that as the frequency of concern decreases, the ideas belonging to the irrational belief of Avoidance of problems increases or vice versa. Moreover, it was also found that the relationship between the variable of body image concern and the age range has a frequency of 41, 7% lower than the expected of .58, that means the variable is independent of age
