Back on topic, there is a real dearth of gym rats I know who are with decent women. Of course, they are prob scoring them.
l
The hottest women in my social group....one is with the richest dude (talking seriously rich, could retire tomorrow, mainly old money - inherited). One is with a fit yet chubby metro dude who is uber fashionable, one is with a dude who was broke when they met tbut clearly going places and has done since. The really buff dude has a mid range chick who earns much more than him and keeps him very much under the thumb. However, the girls do admit he is a good looking guy.
We have a really buff guy but he goes for masculine women I wouldn't touch.
I think one of the key things is a small waist. seems that thinner physiques are preferable to fatter ones. This is in contrast to the 10 or so foreign (e europe, spain, sweden and asia) women I've dated who seem more relaxed about a bit of a belly.
I think this is down to poverty ridden countries valuing affluence of which a belly shows abundance of food. It's fact that curvy/chunky females are prized in societies where food is scarce, yet in our food abundant society, thinness is prized.
So, I am certain agym rat profile will definately get interest off the bat.
Look at the female equivalent:
A gym rat is a man, who mainly lives his life to produce a very attractive body for the opposite sex. Of course atheletes and actual power lifters are the exception. The other motivating factor could be being short, or wanting to be feared by other men. Mainly thoigh, strip through the "it's for myself brah" and it's female approval at the core.
Female equivalent: Long hair, bikini shots, tit job, hot clothes, life devoted to the appreciation of the opposite sex.
So, there is a woman somewhere putting slvtty pictures online saying"hey, look at the attention I am getting"!
Of course, said slutty profile will have any man messaging her because it's a chance to bang her.
Would you want an LTR with a woman who sets herself up like that? No! She probably wants one though.
So, if you are just in the market to get laid, gym rattery is by far the best approach. They don't care how you are, what you earn, your interests. they want the D.
However, if you are in the market for more stable reasons, it isn't neccessarily as good as you migjht think.
If you are overtly sexual, people will have reservations about long term stuff. Wouldyou wife up the woman in lingerie on POF with the tit job? No!
Do womem feel the same way about gym rats - yes.
An awful lot of women do not dig men who are mega buff. It's akin to showing up with your friends with some young and dumb blonde - everybody knows what you're in it for.
Chicks. decent ones, want to say "my bf? Oh, he heads up a team doing something worthwhile and cool for ABC major corportion, and is an accomplished (insert skill). Not, "he has amaxing abs" Those chicks are basic. Basic as hell.
Being withing a good range of fitness is enormously benefiial, given I've been buff, and a slob several times in my life.....really, if you're fat, this is an issue, if very thin, less of an issue than fat but still an issue. Fit in the middle and most dudes are on even ground...beimgbuff as hell ,may get more lays, WILL get more. But having a solid frame, career. interests and social standing trumps bigger pecs.
If it's a choice betweem a buff shop assistant and a slightly out of shape dude who built 2 businesses and is importabt in his field - no contest.
Buff is a bonus just like a chick with money is a bonus. It doesn't drive the bus but it's a good thing to have.
If banging is your game, get lifting/
I do know a very buff guy who struggles gettimg LTR anf it pisses him off. To be fair, he has limited conversation andjust talks about cycling and fitness.
For LTRs, buff guys arefavoured by rich and succesfull women. They have no need for a man so it's arm canmdy and vag pleasure that drives who they choose.
