Lean vs. Jacked: Which is Ideal?

[Deleted member 19865]

You always hear gymmaxers claim you should be jacked to maximize your sex appeal, but the truth is, being big and jacked will just make you intimidating to women. Women will be very shy and cautious around you due to your imposing nature.

Does that physique appeal to women? Do you see the jacked physique in magazines, movies, and shows for women? NO.

What is actually an ideal physique is something lean and skinny. Something like this:

The latter physique is what women prefer. Lean with only a little bit of muscle, so as to not be intimidating or to display a "tryhard" vibe. This is the physique you should strive for. Good luck.

Too big, needs to lose some muscle. Not an inviting look to females.

It's less appealing to women than where you're at. Muscles only attract gay men. They intimidate women.

a girl that approached me at the beach said my body is perfect. i had a lot of girl attention when it looked like this so i‘d say around my muscle mass with better chest insertions
