Added DiffLines:

'''Basic Trope''': A sequence where someone gets increasingly more muscular.
* '''Straight''': As Bob turns into a [[OurWerebeastsAreDifferent were]]-[[KillerGorilla gorilla]], he is shown getting very muscular quickly.
* '''Exaggerated''': Bob spends 10 minutes having his muscles continually grow - by the time it's over, he's ''extremely'' muscular.
* '''Downplayed''': Bob notably looks more bulky as the transformation goes on.
* '''Justified''': Gorillas are a fairly muscular animal, despite Bob having a lean body. It's understandable that he'd be getting more muscular.
* '''Inverted''': Bob is ordinary a muscular person, but the transformation shows him rapidly losing muscle mass and becoming thinner instead.
* '''Subverted''': Bob starts to bulk up during the transformation, but it turns out that was just caused by his body being unable to handle the changes sustained and he starts thinning out again.
* '''Double Subverted''': And then his muscles start growing for real afterwards.
* '''Parodied''': ???
* '''Zig-Zagged''': Bob regularly turns into a were-gorilla. Sometimes there's an important scene showing his muscles growing, but sometimes there isn't.
* '''Averted''': Nobody ever gets a sequence where they become continually more muscular.
* '''Enforced''': ???
* '''Lampshaded''': ???
* '''Invoked''': ???
* '''Exploited''': Bob becomes much more physically strong after the transformation.
* '''Defied''': ???
* '''Discussed''': ???
* '''Conversed''': "I always get confused when [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent werewolf]] transformations show the character's muscles getting bigger. Wolves aren't even very muscular animals to begin with."
