A question for those who have transformed themselves through lifting

Dude being big is a world unlike any other.

Girls call you swole, wanna touch your arms and chests, you can carry them easier, fuck them better. And get a shit ton more attention.

Women have never made it too obvious on the street. Before I was big and when I got big.

Women dont like being seen checking guys out and I wouldnt use it as an indicator.

The best thing is to approach. If you build your body you will probably have the confidence to approach

I started at 140lbs and started getting looks at 160/170lbs. Nothing crazy but enough to notice I was getting looked at more.

Especially when I started paying attention to posture (neck and back) and wearing better clothes (stuff that outlines your physique/figure)

When I started I genuinely didn't do it for any reason particularly, there was one at my college and it was only $10 a week. I think that's probably why it was easy for me to keep going because I never checked for progress.

I think around 3 months in people from high school wouldn't recognise me because it just changed me in every way.

6 months in girls find any excuse to touch me, especially my shoulders. I had to refigure on how to walk because my muscles wouldn't allow bad posture.

Now a year in, I get eye fucked constantly anywhere I go. Females of every age check me out and men respect me more. I used to get bullied in highschool, last month I was with them at a party and I could just feel the respect among them towards me. Women wake up next to me and feel on my body then wake me up with head.

Hope that's motivation enough bro, the world of having a great physique is something else.

And yes I'm 5'8 as well if that helps.

You’ll notice woman becoming attracted to you as soon as your big enough to fill out your sleeves and have any shirt fit right around your chest while having a thin waist sub15% bf. A V taper body is the aesthetic that most girls out there fawn over. For me it happened after gaining 20lbs of muscle which as a noob is possible in 1 year.

Don’t worry, you’ll know when you get there which eventually you will.

Your question lacks purpose.

Either way, you know you are going to keep lifting until you get your desired outcome regardless of whether someone says at x pounds or they don’t.

basically when you appear to be a "man", around 180lbs. some guys can be 35 years old but not look like a man cuz they are like 135lbs and geeky as fuck.

obviously if your over 15% bodyfat it doesnt count.

if your 5'8 and 155, you will prolly be a "man" at 170

5'8".

Umm, on the bright side girls arn't really attracted to muscles. Just be fit is enough.

Time to humble brag. I've been lifting more or less for 11 years now. Just hopped on the juice this year.

Diet, sleep training all dialed in.

I've been called Greek God, huge, big, really jacked, very muscular, shredded, vascular, really hot etc. The list goes on. All of these comments starting coming when I reached 230 lbs. I was big & very lean at this weight. (I've always been very naturally lean.) I've had to fight my whole life to put weight on.

Lots of guys are either intimidated. Or they make excuses to try and be your friend. I get a lot more comments from guys. Women notice you and stop shit testing you almost altogether. Women are very nice to me now and usually initiate the flirting

Anyways it's been a long uphill battle but also an incredible journey to reach my goals. I hope you can stay the course. The end result is well worth it.
