Next thread is going to be about reading comprehension problem on the misc. Does srs tag mean anything anymore?

Point is perception past a certain age. Could have come from a stripper or a talking fleshlight.

That's mostly what I've done, I thought you meant not be strong/fit. Size is genetics/drugs mostly anyway, I could never push past 185 lean so I quit trying to get bigger, but you should always want to stay lean/fit.

You were srsly answered. You are a *******.

You really asked if lifting is important at an age where your competition are all fat slobs. You probably feel it's pointless because you're fat too. You think you're swol, but you have fatceps and get confused for a construction worker.

Get a body of a greek god and come back with your stripper results.

The girl works for tips. She would talk the same way to Jabba The Hut. Your appearance has nothing to do with it.

if that's you in your avi, i don't think you'll get confused much for someone who works out anyways.

he he

but srs, being a 250 lb bloatmonster might be weird, but being your best physical self has never been a bad thing.

i'm your age, and that's the only way i stand out in a crowd of peers, because everyone else looks 50+ and is barrel shaped.

No that's not what I asked, *******. Spend less time imagining my body and more time reading. I asked if a lean look is perceived as a better look than a buff look past a certain age. What are you, retarded?

What “looks better” is 100% subjective.

Most females would prefer a thin, lean look compared to a someone who is "buff".

Age has absolutely nothing to do with it. If you're attractive and buff at 22 or 38, you're going to attract the same women regardless.

I'm over 35 and within the last 5 years, I've lost 55 lbs and lift consistently


the difference in how people look at me is undeniable, and the rest of my friends/family around my age are falling apart

I suspect that this is more true as you age.

It's not your appearance

Not sure why no one in this thread has noticed that yet.

Lots of lols in this thread.

Haven't been to a strip club for 10+ years so can't comment on how much weight they have on viewing the outside world.

35 and look much better lifting than non lifting, my wife also loves it. I look at a lot of guys post 30+ that just let things go; there are as many lean guys as there are muscular guys (maybe 10%), and the rest are skinnyfat or dgaf about their body at all, focused on career, kids, or just getting by.

I'd lose my fukkin mind stress wise if I didn't have some sort of positive physical outlet.

Not as retarded as you obviously if you think the answer to your question isn't fukking obvious. Don't know if you live under a rock, but in shape people are almost always better perceived than non lifting slobs. The ONLY time I see that as not the case as when someone leaves humanity behind, and then it's on a case by case basis.

You will almost always be better perceived, ESPECIALLY by women your age because you get bumped up in the attractiveness scale comparatively .

Health benefits of strength training as you get older outweigh the opinions of what a random stripper thinks.

This. Just the fact that OP is positively looking at not lifting makes him a fukkn autist. How can you go from lifting to not lifting without looking like a dumbass? Unless you are too busy to go to the gym because you're making serious money and that's your new attraction point for females, there really isn't an excuse.

Pretty dumb question. If you're in shape and look strong then you'll look more attractive in most people's eyes than someone who isn't, no matter what age you are. And like someone said, chicks around that age want "real men" with some size more than young dumb girls who like the skinny Biebers of this world.

Maybe you get to a certain age where you probably shouldn't slap on fake tan and walk around shirtless anymore, but to be honest, a guy in his 30s or 40s with some muscle who carries it well will often look better than the younger guy. At that age it says "I've got my sh*t sorted, and I still look after myself..." rather than "I'm a thirsty f*ckboi who lifts cos I want to bang sloots."

Maybe. That's my theory as an over 35 guy who lifts anyway.

Same except 36

I get a lot of attention directly from the way I look because of lifting. The attention has never been negative

Being 35+ and muscular is NEVER a bad thing. Anyone that tells you that looking like you lift means you’re a meathead or come off that way are just trying to cope with the fact that they’re not in shape. What else would you even do instead of lift anyway? Sit home and Netflix? Drink and balloon up like any other 30+ American? Most people don’t have to develop their career at night, if that’s what you’re doing to come off as successful you are careering the wrong way.
