I have a burning question....I REALLY, REALLY need the answer to this...

[Craig Reeves]

...why is it that so many people on here think that lifting weights is gonna all of a sudden make you good with women?

I really wanna know....BAD....

 

[Chicks Just Dig Me]

Well, it will help. It won't decide whether you will get them or not but let me tell you. I lift weights and take it with great importance. You want to know why--

1. Lifting weights shows determination and discipline. It shows you care about your body and that you take pride in it.
2. Would you really be a scrawny little man or a jacked guy with a 6 pack and ripped muscles?? Hmm, I wonder what one I would decide.
3. You can kick ppl's a$$ with muscles and you can defend yourself better.
4. Women loved ripped guys. Like I said, a girl will take a ripped guy with a great personality than a scrawny toothpick with a great personality.
5. Guys who work on their bodies feel more confident because they know they look good and will feel good.

Like I said muscles are not the whole package, but it does influence a lot. Trust me, having muscles benefits you in the long run and you will feel a lot better being in your twenties being admired for your discipline than having a "little kids body." Think The Rock, (Dwayne johnhson) Hes a tough mofo and ppl do fear him who are his enemies.

Lifting weights alone won't make you better with women, but it's a tool on the road to becoming a better man.

What it does for me:
1. Keeps me healthy, mentally and physically
2. Makes me feel more confident
3. Improves my appearance

(Do some cardio too)

Nothing, including weight lifting, is a magic bullet.

It doesn't all of a sudden make you good with women, you have to put effort into it over time.
Good results don't come unless you make it into a routine and keep at it.
There are so many good benefits and I can't think of any bad ones, except if you hurt yourself by trying too hard lol.

 

[jtrain 289]

Women like guys who look masculine and take care of their body. Though it is only a partial factor of attracting women it helps. Let your body do the talking.

Men like women who are hot.

Guess part of the emasculation of today's men, involves men thinking that women want men who look good.

Let's face it. Looks only work 1day/week/month/whatever. Afterwards it's your attitude that is decisive.

That's like a fat girl asking "why would having big boobs and a nice ass help me with guys?"

So true, its the whole package, and not just the fact you have muscles.

What if you had a great body and then a women found out you had your mugg shot on Americas most wanted for killing a woman?

Point being, the body alone wont get you the woman. It may be religion she is after, kids, a non-smoker, someone who is funny, has a good family, etc etc.

Your body (may) only get you a start.

On the opposite end, i've seen some pretty fine women, who I wouldn't even consider dating... or doing anything with. Have NOTHING, but looks. No brain, no sense of anything. Just a body. And even at that, you have to make sure they aren't diseased

Lifting weights alone won't make you better with women

Yes it will.

Why wouldn't it? I don't see how that's logical at all.



If women are attracted to X, and you get X, how are you not better with women?

Let Z={your current woman attracting ability} What you're saying is that I need X and some elements of Y where Y={other women attracting factors}, which is saying Z+X isn't a larger set than Z, but Z+(any number of elements of Y) is. What?

 

[mrRuckus]

Let's face it. Looks only work 1day/week/month/whatever. Afterwards it's your attitude that is decisive.

And the fact that your looks are constantly attracting other women forcing your woman to think of you more as a prize AND realize she has to compete to keep you because she can see other women looking at you ready to pounce should she slip. I had this highlighted for me in my last really long term relationship. She was really concerned all the time about other girls looking at me.. she was always looking at the competition. She knew who liked me and was attracted to me far before i ever noticed.

Men looking good isn't feminization. Look at statues throughout history. Plenty of them were of men looking gallant. The real brainwashing of late is that only women can adorn themselves and look good. We've let them corner the market. Next you'll tell me i can't cook or sew. MEN INVENTED COOKING AND SEWING!

Oh and looking good and knowing i look good is sure going to affect my attitude. I hate enough on fat chicks that they're the sh1t when they're ugly as sin, i'm not about to let myself be ugly and still go around strutting.

:crackup: fat chicks. I see some that thing the are the ****. They stomp around all dressed like they own the place, gut hanging out and.... Man what a turn off. And some REALLY think they are the bomb.

thats true, but they didnt attain it the way we do today. i doubt they watched their carbs or used treadmills. primitive man was a bad-ass mofo, and not because of an impressive bicep curl.

1. Lifting weights shows determination and discipline.

no

It shows you care about your body and that you take pride in it.

thats not a positive character trait.

2. Would you really be a scrawny little man or a jacked guy with a 6 pack and ripped muscles?? Hmm, I wonder what one I would decide.

thats not the issue, any rational person would say yes. but they might not say 'yes' to the overall exchange of input-->output

3. You can kick ppl's a$$ with muscles and you can defend yourself better.

maybe, maybe not. i at 200lbs with a light history in boxing want no part of Matt Hughes, Anderson Silva, or Tito Trinidad. Hell even small guys like Manny Pacquiao or Miguel Cotto can fuk me up.

Being bigger and untrained gives you an advantage over smaller and untrained guys. most ppl are scared of size, so it helps you AVOID fights more than it helps you win them.

4. Women loved ripped guys. Like I said, a girl will take a ripped guy with a great personality than a scrawny toothpick with a great personality.

Duh.

But it's not that simple, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

If you are working out solely for sex, it's much cheaper and more sustainable to go to prositutes and jerk off instead. Work it out economically and attach a financial value to 'time', you'll be shocked at the potential savings. SHOCKED.

5. Guys who work on their bodies feel more confident because they know they look good and will feel good.

Maybe. dorkwads mostly. gaywads too. Any kind of wad pretty much.


To me, the only benefit of working out is that you dont need a personality. In the humawn world, I speak only when necessary, or to make a comically deadpan comment. Before, I was the weak, shy loner to mock. Now im just the larger-than-average crazy guy. I no longer have to interact to be accepted, people respect my preference more.

Why? Because it boosts your confidence. 'nuff said.
