I'm 19 and I'm 5'7" around 125lbs (pretty skinny) I was curious if adding muscle and getting lean would have an impact? Have any of you gone from either very skinny to jacked or fat to jacked and noticed a difference with women?
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Ight and oh yeah it's definitely not my only reason for wanting to lift. How would you say it changes things or makes "game" easier?Short answer YES, don't do it to get chicks tho. Do it for yourself! Healthy choices! Captain obvious.
Also to op, at 125lbs you dont need to worry about "getting lean" you are lean. Go on a bulk immediatelyI'm 19 and I'm 5'7" around 125lbs (pretty skinny) I was curious if adding muscle and getting lean would have an impact?

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Thanks for the advice bro, do you also have any advice as far as "game" goes? I'm sure having the physique helps but how about when you're engaged in talking with them I know how to obviously hold convos I'm just saying in terms of flirting and sparking their interest. And what weight bf% do you think would be ideal for me?Also to op, at 125lbs you dont need to worry about "getting lean" you are lean. Go on a bulk immediately
I feel you on what you're saying. Do you think it makes "game" and pulling them a bit "easier" since they're physically attracted to you?Night and day, especially in the bedroom. I can't say for sure you will attract more women but for sure it's a much deeper sexual attraction.
Its hard for me to guess at a weight bodyfat % for your height. 160lb at 12%??? Maybe 155Thanks for the advice bro, do you also have any advice as far as "game" goes?

I know lots of guys always say women don't approach have you had women approach you now or do you think the guy has to approach?I would assume so but can't be sure. Like I've had more success but it could easily be due to concurrent improvements in other areas. Lots of skinny guys are fashionable and hooking up left and right. I'm pretty sure I lose some women I would have had when I was skinny(I'm pretty big now). What I can be sure of is the visceral sexual attraction I get now is totally different than when I was skinny.
Yeah I've heard around 160 at like 10%bf. It just seems like it would take forever. Like you said I'm lean now so that's what I've been thinking about. I wanna gain muscle and also stay lean with abs.Its hard for me to guess at a weight bodyfat % for your height. 160lb at 12%??? Maybe 155
As for game, read the book of pook or DJ bible for that.
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
A lot of the time bro I feel like the convos are mostly platonic and there's no sexual vibes going on. My "flirting" skills aren't the best that's what I'm trying to improve too.Yes I do get approached occasionally but you need to learn to approach if you're a guy, flat out.
You don't need to worry about staying lean right now, worry about that 30lbs from now.
You actually are in a good spot because you dont need to cut. Just go on a bulk of 200 calories over your maintainence and do a good routineYeah I've heard around 160 at like 10%bf.

No offence but start in the gym.I didn't mature physically until my mid 20's and noticed a difference. Start off with lots of bodyweight exercises and don't abandon cardio. Make the investment for when you hit your peak as a man.
