Maybe it's just a case of different places having different moulds for guys/girls as to what's considered desirable. The 'cool black guy' thing works much better in the US than in the UK. In either case, I'm neither black nor white so I'd never fit in any sort of ideals. MM

I never got any dates. I'd just chat the girls up for a fair while, sometimes get a number, occassionally a kiss close, nothing more. I've gone through spells of trying really hard and just getting nowhere. The girls seem interested but once I start to try and initiate a date it goes nowhere...

I'd say those things apply to me now due to my experiences and basically giving up, but for the first two years and certainly the first year I was confident, bubbly, stylish etc. All I got was 1/2 kiss closes, the odd number and just faffing about with little interest. I've tried changing things...

That still relies on the girl thinking you have value, thus she doesn't care about the content that comes out of your mouth, she interprets everything as cool and flows with the interaction. I don't think being natural with a girl is necessarily important, I think people are quite gullable...

LOL I was already laughing when I saw this thread, I've been trying for years and haven't got even close, so I somehow doubt there's a little magic secret waiting in the shadows. Tall, affluent, average-good looking white men take the women, the rest are just scraps fought out amongst the rest...

He looks like he's about 6' 2" to me. He's just wider and thicker than most skinny girly white guys who are 6' 2", which detracts from the height. MM

Plenty of rows and pullups for your lats and middle back which are lagging. Lots of presses (flat, incline) and wide weighted dips for your chest and front delts. Good luck mate. MM

I've seen El Stud's pics before and he's a pretty built dude mate, his arms are about 19" at a guess and he's pretty big all over. Maybe you two should meet up sometime and scrap it out. I'm sure he could teach your thin white avss a lesson. :) MM

Well maybe they aren't lagging behind then, just factor the leverages in. MM

Why, why should numbers matter? One person's 100 kg Bench is not the same as another person's 100 kg Bench, same with any exercise, the leverages and mechanics are always different so it's not even comparable. Strength is just stupid it's just feeding the ego whilst looking like rubbish using...

Yes the back has good traps from the deadlifting but you have no lats, and no chest from the front. Time to train properly IMO for real gains. MM

If he puts up pics of good upper body poses then what relevance is there in asking him what he squats? Better to ask him what he does for his chest or shoulders as there are what look good in the pics. MM

You're the one to blame, giving him stupid routines doing 2 sets for the chest and 2 sets for the back, what on earth is that it definitely isn't bodybuilding that's for sure. I think you owe him an apology, and if he's added too much fat like you said then you owe him another apology for that...

I was only judging your most recent pic which is a front upper body shot. There are no sign of lats or pecs tbh. Time for a split tbh, and looking at your routine with 2 sets of pull ups and 2 sets of incline press its hardly a surprise there are no pecs or lats on your physique. You get what...

LOL doesn't matter at all these are just 'stats' and 'numbers' which mean nothing. It's about wearing down the fibres and making them grow bigger. I think the OP has a nice physique given his age etc. and he has a nice shape to him as well. MM

Well done mate, looking great in that side chest pose, nice shape and thickness, credit where it's due. MM

I've looked at your routine and there is no chest work. 2 sets of incline? Come on now. I do 5 sets flat, 4 sets incline and 3 sets of chest dips + a dropset to finish; these are worksets. I wouldn't call that high volume. You're better off moving to a split at this stage to make some real...

Your chest needs a hell of a lot of work. MM

Could be either, depends on the amount of protein you're taking and the quality of it. If you're drinking too many shakes then that may not be absorbed well by the body. MM

I've never had any of those reactions, and I'm hardly a master at any of this. Usually I have a decent chat and sometimes I get number/facebook close, sometimes they tell me they are taken and we depart on polite terms. However I haven't had a gf or got laid from a CA before, and from looking at...
