Practise a full contact combat sport, preferably one that trains you to endure pain, like muay thai.
Try out some acting classes or public speaking.
Get used to and enjoy uncomfortable silences, do not break them, let other people yield.
Go out more, practise not breaking. Push limits, do things that make you uncomfortable. Shit test others.
Work on eye contact. Meditate, work on your inner issues.
Hang out with other confident people and copy their characteristics. Watch some james bond and do the same (don't go too far though, keep it simple).
Get a mentor.
Stop giving so much shits and go do you.
Wear some daring clothes, try performing something on stages.
Respect yourself and believe in your judgement.
Self respect = respect from others.
You might go to the gym and are strong, but are you tough? Got grit? Are you dangerous?
A lion is capable of killing anyone, yet all he does is chill in the sun since he already knows he's king, no need to prove anything.

Probably by mastering the art if not giving a fuck. There are a few books about that, one being 'mastering the art of not giving a fuck' I'm gonna read it soon too, right after I've read a book I'm currently reading. We'll be in the same boat

Become more intimidating? That is not a great policy my friend. Friends tease friends, if you can't deal with you can't have friends. Are they really targeting you or are you victimizing yourself?
