Let it go, bud.....

As much as I hate to say this, it generally seems to be the "older" *wince* guys that do it for themselves, and the younger guys that do it for "chicks".

I am not going to go into the right reason or wrong reason arguement any further in this post, this is a general observation I made over the last 8 mmillion times this question has been asked on this site.

(Disclaimer: This post is not intended to start a flame war. It is just my observation!

Louden -- when you go out, do you put on a decent set of clothes? Do you take a shower? Spray on some cologne perhaps?

Those things are no different from wanting to appear muscular and streamlined. It's just another aspect of a man's initial impression on a woman. Is it wrong to say that's something we can't benefit from improving?

If you're gonna take that attitude you might as well fall into hygenic disrepair because it's "unbelievable" to make ourselves more appealing to women.

unbeleivable? Im sorry if my opinion isnt good enough for you but im sure that there are many others who have similar intentions.

I mean sure, it would be silly just to do it to pick up chicks but it is still a very important factor as to why we bodybuild. Boys will be boys and if picking up hotter chicks by bodybuilding seems "unbeleivable" to you then so be it.

As much as I hate to say this, it generally seems to be the "older" *wince* guys that do it for themselves, and the younger guys that do it for "chicks".

I thought that statement is pretty obvious. The older guys will have normally settled down with a woman anyways but us younger guys are out there in the game. Nothing wrong with getting that little edge is there? It's not that we are immature to do it for chicks, it is just that we are governed by our dicks

Plenty of "older" guys are still "in the game". But they still tend to lift for a different reason, IMO.

Personally, I fall into the "older" realm. Yes, I am also happily married to a beautiful woman. But ya know, I still feel great when a girl checks me out for whatever reason.

Still, I started lifting for reasons other than getting girls.

And as for the last comment, what guy isn't governed by their lower member? I don;t care how old you get, that head still does the majority of the thinking for guys.....

I lift for me...
being average sucks, lifting average weights suck, fighting at an average level sucks, just being average at anything sucks.....

I want power, strength, stamina and speed.... my goal is set and I won't back down ever

another thought:
Im lifting to be someone I aspire to be, the better me

I lift for alot of reasons I guess.

It helps to relieve stress, it occupies my time, its fun, I have more confidence, I feel and appear more attractive, I'm able to compete better physically in anything I do, and uhm... yes, it helps to get girls. They're all good reasons. We all have different motivations. Some may not be as "noble" as others, but it's all good!
