Looking healthy is not a bad look. At any age.

There´s plenty of guys +35 looking like chit, so i don´t think being in shape could be bad in any way.

We are kind of brainwashed on what looks good on here. IRL the standards are actually pretty low for what looks muscular or in shape.

utter nonsense

whats happened there is...you're in a strip club and you're well built....no stripper is going to assume a DOCTOR is coming in to a strip club, it's just not the kind of venue you'd assume someone in that sort of career would go to. Strip clubs just generally tend to draw in more lower class/manual labour type people, just how it is. Unless we're talking some extremely upper-tier fancy joint.

looking decently athletic / having broad shoulders / v taper / reasonable arms etc is good no matter what your age.

Absolutely.

I had a kid come unglued a few days ago because I said I looked better than the average 23 year old (the thread set the standards). All you have to do is look around...

Neither do I. I'd never wonder if not being in shape is the better option. The question is should one be trying to build muscle though or to stay lean (and in shape) as they age.

Based on the serious answers here, I agree that going for low bodyfat is a must either way, to avoid the grunt look.

You're 36, she's 18.. You might as well be her Grandpa.
Because the only thing she saw in you is a dollar sign, and a creepy/thirsty old man.

Stripper give you a complement, to get some cash out of your silly ass, and you're ready to change your life over the "wisdom" of an 18 year old pumping you for cash..

People will project what they think of you anyway so why not just continue lifting and do what you love?

It's really part of your "identity" at that point if you're lifting past 35 and you will be that "old buff guy" at a certain age.

I would imagine over 35 people still harbor negative stereotypes to those who lift. I don't know why people can't fathom that someone can be in shape AND be successful.

Is this one of those coping threads where some miscers tries to take down others and make dumb generalizations?

Who gives a phuk what women or anyone for that matter thinks. Do you (whether big or lean), be confident and you'll find women at any age. Being in shape will always help.

I know this is bodybuilding but I think 99% of the emphasis you place on your body should be what you want it to be, not others.

The stripper is not the point. Imagine it says 'a female scientist' for fuqs sakes. The point is perception of lean vs buff at certain age.

Right. I'm not even saying its not doable but you don't just get to toss it out there like its nothing.

I'm closing in on that level now. Been there a few times. Its a lot of fuking work

Inaccurate...

After 30 you no longer have the skin elasticity to carry higher body fat percentages and look good. This is most of the "big guys" running high teen BF.

The muscular 10-12%ers look good till late 50's.

No, most are fuktards with overdeveloped biceps and chicken legs. But that's still a step up on flabby dad-bods with a sunken chest, beer belly, and tube arms.

But if you know what the hell you're doing, dress well, and have a half way decent face, it's not hard to pull off the Alpha look.

Of course it is. She's not flirting with you because you're attractive; shes doing it for the money.

She came to you and made comments that made you feel good.

Strippers do it to everyone. She works for tips

The more she flirts and makes the customers feel good; the more $$$$ for her.
