If kept even close to correctly they can grow athletic in appearance although they are shorter thicker shaped, reference Daniel Bennetts book on V. Exanthematicus, and the pics of wild Boscs, not the captive pics. Heres an old pic, of my atheletic bosc, my first monitor, he grew up from 6 inches to 4.5ft in the first 2 years.
BTs (V. Albigularis)are a much larger animal, and dont keep them in too small of a cage, or limit their diet to keep them small, it doesnt work (OLD WIVES TALE, this question gets asked on a regular basis, Id like to know where it originates). Cape banded WTs stay smaller than other local forms
