Title: Why do we want to be in good shape?
Post by: El Diablo Blanco on March 31, 2020, 07:51:06 AM
I was thinking, I'm older now, still lifting, cycling yearly and looking good for mid 40's but I'm not killing myself with stupid diets anymore like I used to.

In my early 20's I was a pure gym rat, all of my friends lifted and competed.  I remember for months I would eat nothing but Chicken, rice and broccoli 5 times a day and once I grew sick of chicken I would switch to Tuna, then egg whites and back to chicken.  I did this for a couple years straight. I was in the best shape I was ever in.  Veins popping out of my abs.  Delts all round, chest showing striations when I just stand there.

Guess what???  99% of the compliments I would get were from men.  I would go to the beach and guys would come up to me non stop complimenting my physique or asking me tips on workouts and diets.  I would see chicks staring but none would every approach me or say anything.  I would only get the occasional loud slut who would come up and start rubbing her hands on my chest and abs and I really didn't like when some whore would just come up and do that.

I always hear guys saying they workout to look good for chicks but chicks like looking at it but won't act on it.

The hottest chick I ever met was at the Wynn pool.  I was very very off season.  and there were a shit load of guys all ripped walking around and none of them had any women with them.  Just dudes hanging out with dudes, meanwhile I was meeting chick after chick after chick.  It was so easy to meet them.  None of the hotties even cared about the ripped guys. Almost all of the guys picking up women just looked good physically but not great.

Ladies want a guy who is strong, muscular and in good shape but they don't give a fuck about guys who look contest ready or are too ripped.  It's not worth the effort to kill yourself to just get compliments from dudes.

You don't have to do stupid diets to get in shape, though.

Do IF, keep the carbs in check, work out, and you can still look good.

No women I have ever been with has cared.

I can attest to the same thing you are saying.



As I enter my late twenties and came off the juice I slot realised this. Kinda glad I got it out of me while I did
 Still look great, much smaller but better then your average guy.   Cant beat a natural physique..it doesn't go away like those temporary steroid muscles

Good post El Diablo. Guys lift so other guys are impressed, lol. Funny but true. Women in general care only if a guy is fit vs being a fat slob.  Your wallet is a far bigger factor...

All that being said, I lift for muscle and skeletal fitness. I keep my body fat around 20% these days. That is easy to stay at without dieting. Add in regular aerobic exercise ( I bicycle 4 x a week) and you will be in optimum physical condition without any extreme measures.

This post should read "Why do we want to look like we are in good shape?"

We want TO BE in good shape to be able to fight Covid 19.

I’m with you. I’m 39 and I’ve never been ripped but at my best was able to have a decent waist and a line down the middle of my stomach. Looked ok up until a few years ago, but it’s harder to maintain and I really don’t care. I actually hate the gym. I don’t care about lifting mostly family and work take up my time.

Did you ever strap up and hit that chick with herp?

Im 55, Im not interested in pulling women, Im married, I still get female attention when on holiday more than men, I get the odd twat who lifts who wants to know how much I bench and squat, I just tell them I dont bench or squat, that usually deals with them..

Then again I dont walk around like "10 men" flexing and carrying two rows of carpet..

Im subtle with it...

Women dont like big heads..

Women are more attracted to height, a full head of hair and a cute smile than they are with muscles.  As they get older money is the most important thing to them.  Most women are very vain and don't want a man that gets more attention than they get.

Want to attract women? Own a really nice house with a great pool. Go on great vacations. Have a build like a soccer player and wear nice clothes with real shoes instead of clown basketball sneaker.  You can thank me later.

Since I'm no spring chicken, more like a winter chicken it becomes very obvious that guys that train hard as they age look so much younger than guys who don't.  I'm in my early 60's and 95% plus of guys my facially look like hell and have bodies that look like a slob in clothes and on the beach.  Most guys are completely delusional about how they look anyway. Ask a hot girl what they rate them self and they will say a 6 or 7. Ask a guy who facially and physically looks like a gargoyle and they will all say an 8 and above.

Females are attracted to a good looking face first and foremost. Money & status as well especially when they're older after their cock carousel days and trying to settle down.

Women are attracted to confidence and if your physique gives you confidence, it's the confidence that attracts the women not the physique.

I agree that resources are the most important thing.  I'd boil down female attraction to men as relating to these traits:

looks/status/money

Looks can be broken down to include facial attractiveness as well as height/hair/teeth.

I ruin my social status by being a Neo-Nazi, but social status is something that you can change if you want.  I'm not so sure that a man could be exonerated socially if he molested children...but I do think that being "racist" is forgivable - especially in an age where anything and everything is racist.

I don't think most women REALLY care when I say that Indigenous or Black people commit more violence than White or Asian people.  It's similar to saying that men commit more violence.  It's more of an observation than anything else.

I do think women care about men who are in shape, but I also think that as long as you aren't incredibly skinny or incredibly fat, it's ok.  For example, the photos below are the same weight I am now [in the range of 170-lb, or something close].  I'm just a bit fuller and harder here than I am now.  It's nice to be in my best natural shape [and sustainable], and I do think it helps with women - but as long as you have resources/money, I think you will do fine with women.

I also know that we always talk about how women love "confidence", but I think it's more a matter of competence.

This ¨¨what do girls like¨¨ physically is mostly a bodybuilding topic, with bros reassuring themselves that they are into bodybuilding to pull chicks, not the obvious homosexual overtones of them and their buddies checking out each others bodies under the premise of ¨what chicks like¨.

Women are attracted to confidence and if your physique gives you confidence, it's the confidence that attracts the women not the physique.

Agreed, it's the best most basic summary here...

Obviously having resources is very important for keeping them as they are very shallow as mentioned earlier but can't blame them it's in their genes.

Because I do not want to be fat and out of shape. The majority of comments I get are from men, always feel awkward when this occurs. Sometimes women look but I lift for me.

All men are sexual. Females are not attracted all men.

Or are you saying a chick just needs to be horny? Because even then horny chicks just don't sleep with anyone.
