Is gyming a complete necessity?

what it does in respects to how a woman views me

more importantly it changes how you view yourself, you stand a little taller, walk with purpose and interact with people easier when you know you can handle your shit.

going to gym because you wonder how women will view you after it is a big no. I used to think the same before i started.

3 months in and working out goes far deeper into yourself and self respect than stupid wimen.

Think about it

There are no rules, this is just a reddit forum on the internet. The reason people advise that you lift is because of the benefits you gain by going to the gym.

Search the trp sub for a thread about muscle, which has a video of four guys talking about muscle (one of them has a PhD). Very eye-opening. Yes, muscle is very import. Fitness is very important. Exercise is essential.

Let me get this straight. You came to a subforum, that uses lifting heavy weights as its foundation, to ask if its necessary?>

There are no shortcuts in life. Hit the gym you lazy fuck.

I see you half-ass everything with the way you've asked this. READ THE FUCKING FORUM to find the exact answer to your question. READ THE FUCKING MATERIAL until you can answer this question for yourself.

"A well built physique is a status symbol. It reflects you worked hard for it, no money can buy it. You cannot borrow it, you cannot inherit it, you cannot steal it. You cannot hold onto it without constant work. It shows discipline, it shows self respect, it shows patience, work ethic and passion. That is why I do what I do."-Arnold Schwarzenegger

It's not really a necessity. It's over hyped here and you can absolutely achieve amazing things without going to the gym. To some extent, it's become something of an RP virtue-signaling tactic, especially by people who've read half the sidebar.

But! The benefits from lifting are so profound that it's foolish not to take it seriously. It's like questioning whether you should stop smoking. Of course you should stop smoking. Can you smoke and still have an amazing life? Sure. But you should quit smoking.

I understand the resistance. Lifting is so freaking boring and going to the gym sucks and is a pain in the ass. However, this is a really simple way to learn how to endure through boring shit you don't want to do in order to receive benefits that you appreciate. In that sense, it's a metaphor for life. Do the boring, repetitive bullshit that you hate and receive benefits that you will enjoy for years.

After a while, you learn to change your attitude and it's no longer as boring or painful or stupid. You just do it because that's what you do. No one can teach you that lesson. You have to experience it for yourself.

Theres too many benefits to it not to do it. The only reason not to do it is your lazy and dont want to work hard for it.

If we're only talking about SMV purposes and not long-term health or anything like that, I think it depends on where you live. Are you in the Anglosphere? If so, then yes, I think you do have to lift regularly to meet the minimum SMV threshold necessary to consistently attract anything over a 5, due to the skewed sexual marketplace because of feminism, obesity, etc.

If you live in South America, Asia or Eastern Europe, probably not.

Is it possible to fully swallow and find great success and not go to the gym?

Yes, work on your social skills, confidence etc. Put yourself out there alot more.

I don't enjoy the gym although it's different if you go with a more selfish type of motivation--to improve yourself for yourself, not for others approval. But I've developed a body I'm really happy with by rock climbing for a year now. I go to the gym once a week to bench and squat, since in my sport is mostly pulling. I go for me because I want it, not so girls will admire my chest or something. You can get a great body in other ways than simply going to the gym. IMO I've achieved a body that's good enough to where it's not the limiting factor in very attractive women. I.e that girl didn't reject me because of my body. That isn't a brag I'm just saying its not that hard to achieve and you don't have to do it only by pumping iron 3X a week, counting macros and pounding protein shakes. Perhaps find more of a sport you enjoy first.

Don't go, eat ice cream and watch TV instead. Somebody else will fuck your bitch or disrespect you in public, but who cares right? As long as youre just "being yourself"
