Why does TRP always say to lift?
Many reasons.
It increases your attractiveness to women significantly (multiple reasons).
It makes your body produce more testosterone (multiple benefits).
It hardens your mental discipline ("i dont feel like lifting today, but i do anyway", keeping proper form). This mental discipline "spills out" to other areas of your life.
It makes you have "more energy" (increased metabolism).
Strengthens your cardiovascular system (increased endurance).
From the practical TRP point of view, lifting is the easiest and most straightforward thing to to to raise SMV. It requires no deep understanding of m-f dynamics, is the most cost efficient (time/money invested compared with what you gain from it) one for average Joe and is the most easily accessible.

An accurate summary
I suppose the OPs question is reasonable for some.
For example I remember when I was 17 ( and a fat loser), I heard a girl say, omg that guy has really nice arms!.
I didn't understand what she meant. How can arms be nice? The forearm or the upper arm? What makes them nice? The colour? I was Baffled.
All I knew as a video game playing blob was that fat people get teased for some reason, and skinny people don't. Never realised that it was essentially physical attractiveness. And muscle ?? No idea. Wait girls like muscle? And being lean? Why didn't someone tell me.
It's surprising how clueless you can be. When you live in a bubble of video games and Doritos.
That was 11 years ago, and since that day I have lifted. And since that days I have gotten girls. Coincidence? Nope

Not understanding this is a bit of male solipsism.
I don't like muscled women, therefore, in the past, I did not think women liked muscley men.

It hardens your mental discipline
Fuck, from puberty, had I known this, life would be very different.
Structure for me is born from the simple act of lifting heavy.

Every male organization needs a right of passage in order to create exclusively and prevent a flood of losers. MRA and MGTOWs do not have such a process which is why they are flooded with masculinity is relative fat garbage.
Once an organisation/Ideology is flooded with Fat garbage it quickly stagnates because no self respecting person wants to be associated with it.

You're off subject but you make an interesting point. Do you truly believe MGTOW gets all the guys who look at TRP and think 'nah fuck this, too much work'?
I think MGTOW is about self-improvement for the sake of monetary success, whereas TRP is about self-improvement for the sake of self-improvement and pussy.
MGTOW is effectively 3 groups:
The fucked over. Men who were successful or moderately successful and got divorce raped, falsely accused of rape, paternity fraud or paternity limited/denied by the court system.
The easy way outers. A group of Omegas and lesser beta which had no success have no interest in improving and take the path of self emasculation and elimination.
The been there done that crowd - generally older successful men which find little interest in continuing the path of traditional relationships. While most claim this is why they are MGTOW most aren't. These are closer to your Sigma male ideal than the Alpha/Beta/Omega dynamic which is discussed here. Typically men who have more to lose by engaging in a relationship then they have to gain and are subject to ennui regarding women.
Granted there are degrees of these groups but in general they fall into these areas and for most men TRP and MGTOW are part of a transition to self awareness eventually settling into one or the other.

A true MGTOW was Tesla. He had lots of women chasing him, but he realised 2 things: that men become dumber around women, and they consume time and energy. He had a mission in life and almost did it before the government drove him crazy.
A fat slob deciding he's mgtow because his waifu loves him more than those partyhoes is like a paraplegic saying "i'm too good for olympics. And it's their loss not mine."
Lift. It feels good.

While Tesla was a genius, he was also manipulated by every employer he ever had. The man should not be someone to aspire to emulate. He is the quintessential omega.
Useful enough to keep around while he has value, abused and discarded once he out lived his usefulness. He died a virgin, penniless and alone in a pine box buried in an unmarked grave.
While I have a deep respect for his intellect and he shaped the industry I work in, he is not someone who should be admired as a person, merely for his accomplishments.
No man which has not tasted and rejected the sins of the flesh is a MGTOW.
It's also reported that he fell in love with a pigeon. At best he was a sexually unfit at worst he was into bestiality.

You just sent me the textual definition of the ideology and I gave you a factual one.
Fascists are just people who want industry and government to work together in the interests of the nation state. You understand the problem?

Obvious reason about SMV, but it seriously hardens your emotional control, especially if you do your best to minimize the effects of the physical pain on your emotions.
If you can squat 315 with a straight face do you really think girls shit tests will get to you

How to life: confidence charisma and ngaf.
Lifting is the most efficient route to all three. Coupled with acing shit tests consistently the woman problem gets completely solved.

Physical benefits:
Psychological benefits:
Also, lifting is hard to get into - which is why 90% of guys dont do it. Now that I lift I see the world in 2 ways. Guys who work out and guys who don't. They're night and day different.
When it comes to SMV and forming social groups etc. Guys who dont lift arent even on the radar. If you dont lift you are not a threat.
If I think about it all my current friends are either alphaor in ltrs with hotties. They all lift. Noneof them talked to me before I picked up the bar.
GLO is right, it's a right of passage. It's a visual indicator that says you have the discipline, strength and intitiative to be a top 20% male.
