Is being bigger worth it?

I posted in another thread about this yesterday. First of all, obviously you should be in shape for yourself, not women or anyone else, that said, once you get healthy, if your goal is to attract the most women as a bonus, ripped and lean is the key.

As I mentioned in the other thread, we all know that we need to focus on what women show they want through action, not say they want.

Who do the hang pictures of on their walls, or drool over online? bodybuilders? NO

They drool over ripped abercrombie model style bodies. Ripped with good size arms, chest and back, but not some WWE looking guy.

If you want to be huge, great, be huge, if you want to be attractive, you'll want to maintain an underwear model body, have mass and be masculine, but not huge.

Being anything but fat or Skeletor lookin' will always be better.

I'm currently 22 years old and 180lbs at 5"10 and i'd like to be 200lbs+. I'd rather be big/strong than slim and ripped.

A few years ago i was 130lbs too... I looked like a skeleton.

That bench is incredible for 166lbs bodyweight too! My 1RM is 176lbs.

Ok. As someone who has done both body types.

From lean and ripped (5'9 175lbs) to now currently 5'9 and 200lbs.

Being massive has its advantages. Girls take you a little more seriously. Girls love holding onto my significantly larger arms. They love the weight of me on them during sex. They like the large bulging muscles. It's the sensual feel they like. They're eyes closed and your having passionate sex and it's what they're hands run over and feel. You feel the jacked guys more than the shredded. The shredded ones are cool to look at. And it's easier for you to pick up chicks if you're shredded. But if you're in a group. There's a certain aura about being the large one and I've had nothing short of excellent results.

Downsides.

Clothing gets real hard to fit well. Cardio is nonexistent. You eat a shitload. And I've found being this large that it takes a lot less to get me hammered.

My personality fits my jacked physique more than it did when I was shredded.

No, as a one time 220lb high BF high muscle guy leaning down to circa 175 no.

Ryan Gosling is a thing. The mountain is not. Unless you're gay.

being lean is definitely what women find more attractive compared to the jim wendler type body. but goddamn it at 5'11 170 i wanna know what its like to be at 200 this time.

Homie you don't menTion how tall you aware. If your 5'8, 166 is fine. If your 6'2. No chance

I totally agree in terms that you should lift. You look better, also it's healthier, but you do it for you!

If you want to radically change the way people look at you, go out.

My experience as a 6'2 200lb 15~18%BF guy (never shredded yet).

The more muscle you have/bigger your frame is, your body will show more without using compression/overly tight clothing, which ultimately is how you present yourself to everybody.

Think about it, you can be shredded at sub 13% BF, but being natty that will make you smaller than you at 13% or slightly more, thus 90% of the time you present yourself to women, you will look sort of small. Take a look at natty bodybuilders, if you put a tshirt on them while they're 10% or less, they look DYEL mode, off season you look at them and they seem huge even with clothes.

That's my opinion, I will cut down until I see my abs without flexing, and that's it for me, I rather keep that leanness all year long without looking flat and maybe do a mini cut before summer for that beach conditioning.

As usual, girls like natural alphas, they love for you to feed them the lie that you don't kill it in the gym but just jog a little every once in a while.

I'm not sure how true this is but a lot of women have told me they prefer lean and skinny over big and burly.

This is me before Red Pill (6'4" fyi): http://imgur.com/TTjOJ4G

I was really skinny, not much muscle, but I wore tight shirts and girls could notice. Every girl I've been with has said they prefer my build over a "big dude" (but that is obviously confirmation bias because I'm obviously only succesful with girls who like my build)

Here is a guy I've know for quite some time: http://cs313618.vk.me/v313618914/1553/KC7zJqhwXlE.jpg

Now obviously his build is a lot better than mine. Yet he is a brown dude and is only 5'7" or something, he's pretty short. In HS before he started lifting all the girls thought he was creepy/rapey. Yet I was a 6'4" white guy who was just as skinny but I was "cute".

TRP knows looks are important. You can't control the colour of your skin, or how tall your are, or what your face looks like, but you can control how big you are.

So at the end of the day, the uglier, shorter and browner you are, the bigger you need to be. A tall good looking white guy can have an SMV of 9+ without lifting a day in his life. A short brown guy has no hope of that.

P.S. I have started lifting.
