Now before anybody misunderstand me, I'm not, nor have I ever said, that people shouldn't gymcel. Nor have I ever said it won't benefit some people. All I've said is that it's as I have previously said, a partial admit of defeat (because face trumps all and anybody whose spent any time here should know that) and damage control for about 95% of guys who do it. I've challenged all of you to go pay attention to what your average guy at the gym looks like facially, then how close he is to ripped, and then whether it looks like any of the young women there are paying any attention to the guy. I guarantee almost every one you see will
1. Be average to ugly in the face
2. Have decent to good muscle definition, but bodyfat levels far too high to be ripped
3. There will be absolutely no young women noticing he's even there
Furthermore, as I previously stated, it's damned hard to get ripped. Who here is ripped or has been ripped? Must be almost no one because if you've been ripped (I've been ripped. I'm not now because I eat like a pig) you know how much effort it takes to get there and stay there and if you were ripped you'd be reaping enough benefits that you'd feel fully looksmaxed.
But there's a big correlation between being facially handsome and well statured and having the genetic ability to get ripped. You don't just "go get ripped bruh". Many guys can't even accomplish it even with roids. So it's the chicken egg thing. Does being ripped make you handsome or are you more likely to accomplish being ripped because you're handsome?
So yea, it would just seem that a lot of guys want to be able to paint the gymmax thing as this "I could do that" thing. They've accepted that it's not so easy to boost SMV via improving the face and that for many it involves shit that one can't control, but they don't want to hear it that it could be the same for the body too. Big muscles and a ripped body is kind of the gold standard for masculinity in the same way Young Leo's face is the gold standard for asthetics. So why would anybody want to consider that they're not in control of either?
Nobody who's wanting to keep things optimistic is gonna want to do that.
