At what height does it not even matter if you look like you lift or not

I'm thinking 6"4+ after that, women will love you for your height and men will respect you for your height alone. In most instances, you just need to wear clothes that are stylish on you and have a good haircut.

Of course if you're very tall and only like 170lbs then yeah you'll still need to lift but they're outliers.
Starting weight 130lbs
Current stats: 6"2, 210lbs.

The 8th and final rule: If this is your first night at Gym Club....... you have to squat.

Never

You always need to lift. Just because the 6’4” scrawny ******* might get more respect than the 5’8” scrawny ******* doesn’t mean he’ll get more respect than the 6’4” Chad that lifts.

Life’s a never ending competition and lifting always matters
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

All that matters is if YOU think you need to lift or not. Height, current physique, looks, nothing matters except for how you feel about yourself, the goals you have for yourself, and what you want to look/feel like.

It doesn't 'matter' that much at any height as far as women are concerned, they just want you to be reasonably fit and bigger than them as a minimum threshold

I would say the taller you are the more important for filling out your physique and not looking like a bean pole

Being a jacked manlet is a bit of a tacky look but better than being a twink

Why do you fellas overthink this stuff?
Regardless of your height, you should be motivated to go in the gym and maintain a good consistent diet, so that you can build a physique w/juicy deltoids.
