### Summary

The text discusses Justin David Kid’s method of categorizing body types based on various parameters such as facial features, shoulder shape, bone structure, etc. The method involves taking a test that requires answering a series of questions through adjectives to determine your key type.

The method works well for practical guidelines but may require more subjective assessment than the traditional body types.
