Does bodybuilding really increase my chances twentyfold?

silent_demon9752 · 2025-03-20T12:22:01+00:00

Not Bodybuilding my Man, But being in shape Does. Add a bit of Fashion sense and you'll be noticed every time.

gim_san · 2025-03-20T12:26:22+00:00

Yeah being in shape definitely increases your chances

know_your_self_worth · 2025-03-20T12:34:20+00:00

It’s not necessarily the body game that increases your chances per se. It gets you noticed by women for sure. The real change is how body game sends your confidence into the stratosphere once you start looking in the mirror and loving what you see, and notice other people noticing you and admiring your hard work in the gym. Once that kicks in and your confidence goes up and up and up, that’s the real game changer. The body game is a catalyst for the confidence change. Some people have it naturally without body game, but if you’re anything like me , body game was that main catalyst that gives you higher self esteem and confidence, since you know you can trust yourself to be disciplined to build a strong and masculine body. If you can do that, you can conquer the fucking world (metaphorically) and women are a side effect of that. As others have stated, add in a good fashion sense to that (working on this rn lol, mines not great), good cologne collection, improved social skills and emotional intelligence, good listening skills, and a strong friend network, all that stuff is like super mario when he gets the mushroom 🍄 and grows more and more. It’s the cherry on top of the confidence and body game, makes it even more powerful.

It certainly cannot lower your chances. You can be skinny and still be muscular. Just put on some muscle

Not body building, but being in shape does

xx_deleted_x · 2025-03-20T13:54:26+00:00

essentially....don't be fat...or ugly

LogicalChart3205 · 2025-03-20T12:37:48+00:00

Not directly but it increases your confidence and your bed game, also gives you muscle mass that add to your animalistic aspect

wassushxii · 2025-03-20T13:42:44+00:00

Women much prefer lean muscle mass

lots of components to smv- a better body and more muscle definitely helps imo

hachapurik · 2025-03-20T12:24:06+00:00

Not in excess

FKaria · 2025-03-20T15:10:51+00:00

Guys. Seriously. Lose the fat and put on some muscle.

You can still do everything else, but you'll be playing on easy mode.

KoleSekor · 2025-03-20T12:45:09+00:00

Body building increases your chances with other men

Mean_Bumblebee1945 · 2025-03-20T12:35:01+00:00

As long as your muscle gains dont impact your face, its never enough. Problem ist that more muscles often comes with facial fat gain or facial aging. always remember face > everything

chinchinlover-419 · 2025-03-21T19:22:02+00:00

Not twentyfold. What the fuck. I would say a nice body, at best, doubles your attractiveness realistically.

Also always remember, body shape is infinitely more attractive than muscle mass. Most women don't find brock lesnar physiques attractive or whatever. V taper is the way to go.

BananaRepublic0 · 2025-03-20T15:25:58+00:00

29 F here. I don’t know a single woman who thinks that bodybuilders are attractive (me included). It’s repulsive if anything.

Being fit is attractive, not bodybuilding.

pissshitfuckcuntcock · 2025-03-20T13:59:49+00:00

Getting bodybuilder jacked actually alienates most Women and only a small minority prefer it. Being Athletic looking is what appeals to the broadest amount of Women. Think the physique of a Swimmer, Tennis player, Rock climber etc. Very fit, but functionally so. I attempt to get ‘big’ at one point and stacked on about 13 kilos of muscle. My GF (at the time) liked it, said it made her ‘feel safe’ but I basically stopped getting checked out or flirted with by Women, basically became invisible to them and only got compliments from Men.

No-Buy7459 · 2025-03-20T19:41:40+00:00

only if you have a great face to begin with

SquallidSnake · 2025-03-20T13:20:21+00:00

My wife’s friend that visits has asked to me twice in private recently if i’ve lost weight. Gave her a hug at a party and told my wife in private that i’m on a fitness journey.

yetanotherburner-2 · 2025-03-20T14:20:19+00:00

It did for me. Any my face is chopped. Height helped as well.

EstablishmentCute591 · 2025-03-20T14:25:59+00:00

Working out, or any type of movement, makes u feel and look better, with that comes less overthinking and that is totally different person compared to couch potato who feels sorry for himself

wblack79 · 2025-03-20T15:49:58+00:00

It’s the confidence that comes from it, not the muscles.

Faabbss · 2025-03-20T16:47:07+00:00

Yeah sure, having a rockin’ bod will most definitely help but you also gotta know how to spit game. Simple as that.

Crafty_Bag_4871 · 2025-03-20T17:17:22+00:00

Gets your foot in the door. But also working on posture with mobility work outs and meditation will help you be level headed and balanced through interactions. Reading and questioning what you read will give you interesting and insightful topics to talk about. Having other hobbies gives you depth. Body building is even a hobby. You don’t want your one hobby to be your entire personality. A meat head is essentially like imagine someone who is a bird watcher and all they talk about it bird watching. And they have birds all over their house and are constantly trying to go hiking to see birds. You might be like “oh. This person is weird.” Unless you also love bird watching. Some girls love the gym. You meat heads definitely get some. Bird watchers might too. But I think being a well rounded human being is the best way to go about whatever it is you want to achieve in life. Not just seduction

SadKnight123 · 2025-03-20T17:58:53+00:00

Being in shape definitely does. Being somewhat muscular is always better than just skinny. But being lean is the most important. The bodybuilder bloated look is not as appealing as one may think.

Abnormal_Aborigine · 2025-03-20T18:04:15+00:00

Usual-Revolution-718 · 2025-03-20T19:57:44+00:00

broad shoulders, strong back, great posture

showcasing tricep, and muscular legs

pchulbul619 · 2025-03-21T03:54:47+00:00

Again, you don’t need that huge bulked up body. Those types of bodies gives abusive vibes to women. Unless she herself is into bodybuilding, not many women like it. \ What I’ve seen women prefer, are lean athletic bodies. Mostly cuz it subconsciously signals to them that the guy must have stamina and can go for more rounds and hit the g-spot or whatever. I’m not sure.

Also, about the height part. Yeah, they got this tall guy fantasy. However, even if you’re short, some guys can still APPEAR to be tall due to their physique, the aspect ratio matters. Also remember, that a guy can have all the height but if he has zero personality, the it’s all gonna go to waste.

The height and physique only gets you to the first “hi”, after that it’s all personality and hoe you navigate the situation.

ExtraordinaryBeetles · 2025-03-21T14:58:43+00:00

There are measured studies that women find men with bigger upper arms (within reason) more physically attractive than smaller/average.

MineDesperate2920 · 2025-03-21T15:23:56+00:00

lol no. Looks is what you’re asking about. It helps about 30%. So that’s still 30%. But also only 30%

Known-Student-381 · 2025-03-20T17:33:25+00:00

Bodybuilding in the most literal sense (being a bodybuilder) is generally overkill. In a more broad sense (working out with a focus on aesthetics), it's a pretty good play. FYI it'll still mean nothing if you don't approach and lack confidence. I'm told women check me out now, but I never notice/believe it so my success rate is still 0%

The good thing is it definitely builds confidence.

And DO NOT make the mistake of assuming women are impressed that you go to the gym. Common mistake. Women are turned on by the results and turned off by the process. Science cannot explain this. Do not bring up working out or going to gym unless she does; if she wants to believe you just naturally look that way, let her.

TheKanonFoder · 2025-03-20T13:54:40+00:00

It's not just the bodybuilding. it's the physical embodiment of masculinity. The increase in testosterone. Impression of capable of physical violence (aggression or defense). It also shows dedication to self.

LegendaryZTV · 2025-03-20T14:51:52+00:00

Being in shape helps. Bodybuilding will attract more dudes than women tbh lol

Doesn’t matter if you’re skinny/fat/in between as much as being in shape, fit for your frame really. Women have different types they like too

_Sarah_Tonin_ · 2025-03-20T16:22:14+00:00

Yes but 20 x 0 = 0

If you couldn’t get girls before they won’t fall in your lap after

EntertainmentTime141 · 2025-03-20T16:44:57+00:00

Bodybuilding hopes you out tremendously. It increases the amount of girls (on cold approach but even more so in social circles) that are going to be warm towards you versus neutral or even cold.

But it’s not the cure. It’s a tool; if you are overweight or very skinny, hitting the gym and fixing your diet is a great boost.

Rollorich · 2025-03-20T16:52:28+00:00

Body building will increase your chance twentyfold with gay men. Women prefer the slim muscular type, not the bulky muscular type

triggerxwarning · 2025-03-20T14:46:04+00:00

I don’t fuck bodybuilders.

AgreeableMonkey · 2025-03-20T14:14:03+00:00

Being fit, yes. Getting jacked, no, you’ll just get attention from other men

caesarfecit · 2025-03-20T15:27:51+00:00

I would say you start hitting diminishing returns once you get below 20% BF and have some muscle definition.

What women really look for is how well you wear what you've got. Of course they'll take a 6 pack over a beer belly.

Beyond that, you want good cardio, some upper body mass, and the V-shaped torso.

BBC_for_the_World · 2025-03-20T15:42:15+00:00

Women on bc tend to be more attracted to feminine looking guys. ~90% of wedtern women are on bc, go figure lol

-Twyptophan- · 2025-03-20T17:24:34+00:00

Beefy bodybuilder- no

Lean with muscle- yes

Lord_Asmodeus93 · 2025-03-20T19:34:45+00:00

Nope. As long as you're in good shape, it makes 0 difference.
