The Gym Rat badge in NBA 2K21 grants a permanent bonuses to physical attributes, increasing acceleration, speed, stamina, strength, and vertical by four. One way to obtain this badge is to reach Superstar 2 on MyRep progression, though this undoubtedly requires a significant amount of grinding. Fortunately, there is an alternative and easier way to unlock the Gym Rat badge, and it centers around NBA 2K21‘s MyCareer game mode.
Before getting into this method, though, it is important to clarify that the Gym Rat badge that it grants is not identical to the one that comes from reaching Superstar 2 in one big way. More specifically, the Gym Rat badge that players can unlock through MyCareer can only be applied to the character that is used to obtain it, whereas the one that comes from MyRep Progression can be applied to all characters. As such, players that want to use the process detailed here to unlock the Gym Rat badge for more than one character in NBA 2K21 will need to go through it multiple times.
With that established, the process for earning the Gym Rat badge through MyCareer is to play 40 regular season games and then win the playoffs and Finals. While this may seem like quite an undertaking, NBA 2K21 players can simulate certain games to expedite things considerably. The instance where it is okay to sim games is as follows:
- Players can sim the requisite 40 regular season games after they are up by 25 points.
- After hitting 40 regular season games played fans can sim the games leading up to the NBA playoffs.
- Players can sim the playoff games after they are up by 25 points.
To note, some players insist that doing several team practices during the Finals is an important part of winning and earning the Gym Rat badge, while others suggest that it is simply unnecessary. Fans can, of course, decide for themselves if they want to put the time into shooting drills in NBA 2K21, but it is important to emphasize that the Gym Rat badge will not unlock if a player loses in the Finals.
Now that this method for obtaining the Gym Rat badge has been outlined, it is worth returning to the previous point about Superstar 2. Indeed, fans that think that they may want to use the badge on multiple characters should really consider grinding MyRep Progression in NBA 2K21 unless they can simply not get enough of the game’s MyCareer mode.
NBA 2K21 is available now on PC, PS4, Stadia, Switch, Xbox One, and mobile devices, with PS5 and Xbox Series X versions in development.
