Any of yall into bodybuilding?

working out has an actual physical effect on you that can help you attract women. A good work out releases endorphins into your body which are the same things that drugs like heroin release into your body. If you feel good women feel good around you and want to be around you. Also in a good work out you have to push yourself, you have to give your all to get the most gains. When I started this caused me to do my best in all areas of life. Areas which guess what?... helped me easily and naturally attract more and more women. I know that working out has changed my life not just physically it was the one thing that started to change my previous total lack of self discipline. The benefits of working out are many more than just these and as I said aren't just physical. I don't do it for women, I do it for me. The benefits are far greater than the drawbacks... speaking of what are the drawbacks?

Btw I just started a bulking program again, last time I gained 30 lbs. I'm hoping to gain 20 more of all muscle by the end of the summer. This thread has helped me out alot, thanks.

I gained 30lb really fast, then the next 20 took about a year. I've netted about 10lb in the last 8 month and I lift harder than ever and eat better than ever. Newb gains are a bitch. However, when I put on 2lb now, I can see it.

haha yeah I never plateued last time I just quit due to actually pretty dumb issues that happened in my life. This time I am mentally much stronger than b4 and will not quit.

Anyone had any serious injuries from lifting heavy? I had a hernia and had to have surgery. I also tore something in my shoulder that has caused me problems for years. My joints have a lot of pain when I lift too.

Of course I'm older than you guys so when you get to be my age you'll understand more. I think lifting does do some damage.

i thought I had a hernia until I read more on it today. I screwed up both shoulders but found a good ART doctor and I'm 100%. Competitive power lifting and "bodybuilding" are 2 different things.

I actually do high volume/light weight because I don't want to be injured when I'm older. Plus it keeps me somewhat lean since I do zero cardio.

well then you have to worry about over-use injuries. I firmly believe in slow warm up, using perfect form on every lift, stretching after lifting, and avoiding over-use.

Anything unusual or interesting could get you opened, that's not getting you laid. In fact, very few girls will sleep with you just because they're physically attracted, even drunk girls. The game is played in comfort.

There's a big difference in wearing a silly hat and having a great body. Whether you want to admit it or not women love muscles. Turn on the TV, how many skinny or flabby sex-symbols do you see? None. They all have great physiques. If you don't want to work out, that's cool. You can still get girls. Just don't kid yourself and think that it doesn't make any difference because it absolutely does. And instead of being that guy that doesn't work out and telling me it doesn't make any difference, why don't you ask someone you know that has transformed their body and ask them if it has made a difference. The point of the game is to become the complete package. That includes the way you look. So we can stick with having an average body (we know what average means) or we can be the guy that stands out physically in a crowd. Even if it's only, as you say, a placebo effect you will still feel 10 times better. What's wrong with feeling 10 times better?

For the record, it works both ways. Girls will sleep with a guy solely because he is attractive. Girls will also sleep with guys because they have great game. Let's not discount any one way. Before you start a flame war, it is my opinion that you DO NOT have to be attractive to get laid.

Flame war? Not sure what that is but is sounds like a waste of time.

Look, I really don't do the whole ego thing, but I do believe in putting yourself out there as honestly as possible so to answer you fairly - I'm a good looking guy, and I've been to the gym a time or two.

Here's what I've noticed - you're free to disagree. There is a small percentage of girls that will sleep with you just for your looks, provided you don't fuck it up. Just like there's a small percentage who will sleep with a guy just for his money. But it's never been the quality girl I would choose for myself.

The other thing it does is it gets you instant IOI's and proximity during the day - but not as much at night/bars/etc. I'm curious to see if it makes a bigger difference with day game than just as an approach-invitation-getter. I don't do too much day game now, but there may be something to be said and explored there. I can't comment since I don't have the experience.

Internet - who knows. I don't do online game right now. I imagine it would help here since they don't have much else to go on.

Aat the bar girls just do not seem to give a fuck, that's the flat out truth. Maybe I'll get some EC, some proximity.

Look, I've been blown out of a set by a guy named Tenmagnet when in Las Vegas right before joining this community. The guy's like 5'6 and 10 years my senior, but being a MM instructor his game was just so tight he pulled a 9 right from under my nose by coming in to the set by buying me a beer, and then being more interesting and challenging. Am I mad? Not at all. Lesson learned.

A great body gets you laid.

I wish this were true.

I know one thing. Having a beer keg instead of a six pack does not get you laid... I've proven this much. But it does not prevent it either... and either way I believe that confidence is the key ingredient.

That said... I think you should be concerned with fitness not for the sake of your game but for the sake of your personal health. The reason that you do this should be that you enjoy it, that you will live longer and that you'll feel better in your day to day life.

Don't you think this applies to everything in PU?

Everything you do should be for you, not anyone else. That's the lesson PU should utimately be teaching all of us.
