>0/10 into perhaps a 1/10 or 2/10

No, it wouldn't.
0/10 has facial deformity which is unsolvable by anything other than plastic surgery.

If you are 3/10 you will never go above 4/10 no matter how good your body is, because requirement to be 5/10 is in the face, not in the body.

If you are 4/10 no girl will be attracted to you, even hamplanets have higher standards. Only way to get a female is to be a beta provider. Whether you are 3/10 or 4/10 has no relevance on attracting a female as a beta provider, thus proving my point that lifting doesn't make you more attractive.

You don't have to be a meathead to look attractive in a suit.

I guess the reason you believe lifting made you attractive is so that you think world is a just place and you get what you deserve and want to feel good about being who you are.

if you are fat and have actual bone structure lifting can make you attractive

2. If you lifted weights you'd be more attractive than you are now, without a doubt.

>>
>>27857630
1. At 24? I think it is. I am who I am. My rolemodel is my mother like it happens with a lot of men that don't have any normal man in their lifes.

2. I forgot to mention but my father never lifted in his life. Being more attractive doesn't mean anything. He was a 6-7/10. I am objectively a 3-4/10. When I get rated on /soc/ I get lowest ratings (same as obese men).
>>
>>27857568
The "insecure tryhard" part is literally only true if you go full on bodybuilding mode and look like a walking chode. If you lift like a normal human being and look fit, athletic, and properly proportioned you are going to be considered more attractive than before regardless of your height.

This is what I don't understand about people who think lifting is pointless. Yeah you can be genetically limited to the point where you can never be Chad or maybe never even be a proper normalfag, but getting in shape is ALWAYS a net increase to your attractiveness. So like the other guy said, even if your best isn't that great, why not be the best version of yourself that you can be? And that's even setting aside the health benefits of lifting and dieting.
>>
>>27857798
Because at a point lifting gives you such a small net increase that there is no value in doing it?

If you are a 3/10 without lifting and 4/10 with lifting it won't change a thing. You won't be able to attract a better looking female because you lift.
>>
>>27857422
>Fine, show me a 5/10 with a bad face.

upwards of half the guys I play Warhammer with, they're either married or at least not unsuccessful with women,

Interesting, I see all sorts of men with women, fat, thin, ugly and attractive. quite a few of the mtg guys I play with surprised me with their gf's.

Do you have hobbies where you hang out with other guys to see how they match up with women? Even the nerdiest of guys can get a qt if they have a sense of humour.

Are you kidding me? Being uglier is even more of a reason to lift. Like with height, the further you are towards the lower end of the scale the more each upwards notch matters. There is a world of difference between 5'3 and 5'6 as a male, for example, but barely any between 6'2 and 6'5. If you have 8/10 genetics there's no huge incentive to get fit and bump up to a 9/10 since you're already good enough to get practically all the women that you have immediate access to. Lifting is just a bonus. If you're genetically inferior you need every scrap of extra attractiveness that you can get. The difference between 3/10 and 4/10 is massive, it's like the difference between being frightening-to-children tier ugly and just average everyday unattractive. Even women aside, that extra point of attractiveness just makes dealing with everyone in your day to day life easier. And as far as women go, contrary to what you think it will actually help you attract women since not only is a good physique inherently attractive but it's also a sign of discipline and health consciousness.

I'd argue the main benefit from lifting is the psychological aspect. It builds confidence, not in the sense of like learning to do something but in a more raw physical confidence (which is very attractive to women). The testosterone boost is amazing, after I work out for a couple of months, I laugh more, I'm quicker witted and overall happier.

There is only one thing worse than being short, and that is being short and skinny/weak.

I envy guys who are tall/have a good frame. Literally all you need to do is work out and become muscular. Sadly I'm short and have a light build which means I'd have to work out hard and I'd still be a manlet.

>help you attract women since not only is a good physique inherently attractive but it's also a sign of discipline and health consciousness.
Women don't see it that way. They see a guy trying to hide his genetic flaws by using work. That is unattractive. That's why people like clind eastwood worked out but lied about it. Women only care about genetics. They despise those that work to achieve something other than money.

Again, you're using the stereotype of a comically ripped ugly/short man. I'm not advising you to become some roided out bodybuilding faggot. Just get in good, healthy shape.

My back is scared from acne. I will never look healthy, no matter how I look.

even if there's a microscopic increase in the attractiveness of men like in the OP, which many of us are, they'll still want nothing to do with us and all those mind numbing hours picking up weights and putting them down will have been for naught

You'll still look better fit than you would if you were skinny or fat.
>Lifted once for 7 months
>7 months
Lel yep, there's the problem, you're an instant gratification fag. 7 months is not enough time to see the benefits of lifting. 7 months is barely out of noobgains territory. You need a year MINIMUM before you can even have the privilege of saying you "tried" to get fit. 7 months is not trying.

If you don't change your life and yourself everything will be the same your entire life.
>>
>>27858074
I said comically ripped, not comically short or ugly. As in looking like a roided out freak. If you're ridiculously ugly or short that's fine, getting fit will still make you more attractive.
>they'll still want nothing to do with us and all those mind numbing hours picking up weights and putting them down will have been for naught
Stacies will probably want nothing to do with you. Maybe even boring 6/10s will want nothing to do with you at first. But getting fit could be the difference between dying alone and at least managing to get an ugly practice gf, then a better looking gf, then slowly claw your way to some semblance of happiness. And like I already explained, the halo effect is real. Men and women alike will treat you better in your day to day life if you're more attractive. Getting fit will make it just that much easier to deal with people.

Seems like what you want is for lifting to turn you into Chad. It's not going to do that. It's just going to make you a better version of yourself. Maybe that better version is still disappointing, but it will sure as shit make you happier than being a worse version of yourself.

The right guy can go to the grocery store without giving the people inside nightmares. See, this is exactly the problem with your worldview. It's literally the opposite of what you're trying to convince me. The guy on the right's quality of life is INFINITELY better than the guy on the left's. Yeah, both of them will never fuck any women, boo hoo. At least the guy on the right can live his life, the guy on the left is fucked. This is what I mean: when you're ugly you need every tiny little bit of attractiveness you get. You're going to get massive returns on every point you move up the scale, whereas your returns will diminish going from, say, a 9 to a 9.5/10. You've got this all backwards. You more than anyone should be interested in lifting, but you've convinced yourself otherwise because lifting won't give you the normie-tier life that you so clearly desire. And that's apparently the bottom line for you, if you can't live like a normie you'd rather not live at all. Apparently to you the difference between a literal abomination and just a run of the mill fuck ugly guy is negligible because they both aren't normies and aren't getting pussy.

I see no other purpose in life than attracting a female.

Once I remove the female from the equation I am satisfied with doing nothing but shitposting on 4chan, playing vidya and watching movies. I see no purpose in lifting since I don't see how it would make my life better. I could get friends now or when I am fit. What is holding me back is my delusions, incorrect view of the world and schizophrenia. Lifting has no value.

This is almost too pathetic to fathom.

>>27858321
Getting laid is not the only thing that affects quality of life. He'll have a much easier time just making friends and interacting with people in general if he was fit.

Consider this: do you think the guy on the left wouldn't spend three hours a week in a gym in order to look like the guy on the right, if he could? Do you honestly think he wouldn't do virtually anything just to not get stared at and treated as a literal subhuman if he could? Do you think he would give a single fuck about the fact that he still wouldn't be getting laid if it meant people would be able to see him as something other than a monster?

>>
>>27858445
The original point is that there is no difference in quality of life between two ugly people if both are too ugly to get laid therefore it would be worthless for one to work hard to become as attractive as the other because at the end of the day they both still wouldn't be getting any women. My point is that the man on the left would be willing to work extremely hard to become as attractive as the man on the right because, despite the fact that it would still not make him attractive enough to get women, he would at least be able to go out in public. Maybe he only went up from a 0/10 to a 1/10, but his quality of life skyrocketed. Similarly you should be willing to work extremely hard to go from a 4/10 to a 5/10 or whatever. Even if you still aren't attractive enough to attract women (you would be, incidentally, but I'll play along with your hypothetical here) you would still experience a notable increase in your quality of life. You elect not to do this only because you're a lazy pussy. And you try to justify your poor life decisions on /r9k/ with logical positions that literally support the opposite viewpoint of the one you're arguing from. If anyone is retarded here it's you.

Honestly getting fit improves just about every aspect of your life. I got in great shape, though not at the level of those guys pictured, and it really did make everything better..for a while. But, the depression hit full force again and it didn't matter how good I looked or how much better my body felt. Then it all fell apart and was just another justification for pointless self loathing.. and we all recognize it's pointless, but that doesn't stop it from happening. Definitely try, but don't go in thinking it's a golden ticket.. everything will be a bit better, but not much will change.

In what way would my life improve? I can get friends being who I am. I don't require lifting. I will never be attractive enough to get free stuff or for people to go out of their comfort zone to do something for me.
>>
>>27858563
The people in the picture aren't relevant, what's relevant is the notion of it being worthless to move up small points in attractiveness if you still don't hit the minimum attractiveness required to attract women. Which is a flawed worldview, since as I've just illustrated it is quite easy to see what a massive increase in quality of life you can experience even going from one very ugly person to another. Now apply that to lifting: you think it's worthless for an extremely ugly person to lift because it still might not make them attractive enough to get a girl. But it will make it easier for you to get a job, it will make people less likely to harass and make fun of you, it will make people afford you a greater amount of respect in general and it will raise your attractiveness. That's a significant increase in quality of life, even if you're just talking about going from a 4 to a 5 or some other ugly-to-ugly change.
>>
>>27858598
Where did you get the idea that people will respect you more, easier to get a job and so on?

I give you that people will harass you less in maybe America, but where I am from the only people who harass others are chavs and they do it in groups so they wouldn't scared of you.

It shows discipline and personal care. It's just a sign of having your life in order in general. Also it obviously opens you up to the whole world of manual labor. And it helps discourage your coworkers from bullying you if you do happen to get the job. You say you don't have to worry about being harassed, but workplace bullying is very real and being strong is a natural deterrent to that in any working environment. Just one less thing to worry about, one more reason lifting increases your quality of life.
>>
>>27858683

You're just grasping at straws here. He could also prevent workplace bullying by learning karate or open carrying.

Lifting is only good for women, and if you're not good looking enough for lifting to tip the scales, it's pointless.
>>
>>27858926
Having the means to not only get a job, but be comfortable at your job is "grasping at straws"? One of the biggest fears and complaints I see on this board about having a job is how much it would suck to be around normies who would bully a vulnerable robot. Even eggman has complained about his coworkers giving him shit. Peace of mind in the workplace is extremely valuable.
>learning karate
Top fucking kek, the fuck you think this is an episode of a cartoon or something? You're not going to have to fight your fucking coworkers, I'm talking about visible deterrents to verbal harassment, not them beating you up in the locker room after gym class. You'd get fired if you tried to whip out your japslap to get them to stop making fun of you anyways. Plus learning karate is more work than getting fit anyways.

I won't even greentext the idea of open carrying a gun at work to defend against your coworkers because while it's a ludicrous suggestion I see above that you admitted to being a yurocuck, so it's understandable that you have a tenuous grasp on gun ethics.

That what you are is predetermined. All of those guys were fat and turned chad, because they had chad facial aesthetics to begin with.

I kinda agree. 3/10 can turn into a 4/10. Sadly 4/10 is too ugly to attract a female so there is no difference between 3/10 and 4/10.
>It does make your life better, simplest reason: strength and endurance is useful in everyday life

Lifting part is actually the easiest. Hardest part is to stick with a consistent schedule and diet. This is probably the most retarded thing I've read so far today.

Keep telling yourself that it is hard for that pat on the back that you give yourself lel.

It makes you more attractive if you have a halfway decent face and needed to lose some weight off of it. (Slight double chin, puffy looking cheeks etc.)
Also all the dopamine released by working out makes you confident and more attractive in that way.

4/10 slightly below average, has some negative features such as recessed chin, acne, facial skin disease, big nose, yellow crooked teeth, obese and so on. You don't have to have all those features to be 4/10.

hamplanet obese female

6/10 has no negative features such as the ones listed above, but doesn't have masculine features required to become a chad

>Stop bullshitting yourself , reason why you are alone is tha fact that you are boring, undisciplined, unfunny and with no spine. Some arbitrary made up number has nothing go do with it.
I disagree with this. If you are a Chad and you need to feel good about yourself by thinking you are who you are because you worked hard for it, then be my guest but it's not true. You are delusional.

Also learn the halo effect. All those things you listed besides discipline which has absolutely no value to females are greatly increased the more attractive you are. You can be the most boring and unfunny person in the world but if you are 9/10 a girl will laugh at your jokes. Same goes for being 1/10 and funniest in the world and you will get called a creep and a freak.

80% of looking like the guys in that picture is having a good diet. And that's something that you do at home. It only takes a little discipline but I'm guessing that's not exactly /r9k/'s strongsuit.

You only need to go to the gym 3 times a week for like 90 minutes. That's 4,5h out of 168 a week, big deal. I'm not the best looking guy but at least people don't look at me in disgust when they see me

Its true. It gives you a temporary, superficial boost because its the first time in your life youve actually achieved something that wasnt in a video game. But after a while it wears off and you realize that other people are achieving things with astronomically more value than working out in a gym.

It is a good start though. It makes you want to improve in other aspects of your life. Be prepared though. You will start to realize how much of your life youve wasted

Coming from a guy who's slept with plenty of women in marriages and LTRs, yes. They are all whores. The problem is these men are way too trusting of their women or they're weak limp wristed men with no backbone or convictions that'll drive them to cheat.

When you get a girlfriend expect her to cheat on you eventually. Because she will. Even if you're doing everything "right" she'll cheat if she thinks she can get away with it.

Don't even think about getting married with the expectation she'll be faithful. She won't. Only get married if you want kids, sign a prenup with your lawyer and her lawyer there to agree to the terms, and expect that shit to end eventually.

It does give you slightly more confidence that I've noticed myself, especially when you come across another male. Though it won't fix your personality or make you able to talk to the opposite sex. It also won't fix your face and give you some amazing facial aesthetics.

Soda is for going out and having fun with one or more other people, even if it's just a LAN party or something. This limits your intake of the beverage, but maximizes the enjoyability of it.

Working out, when done right, obviously gives you a better and healthier body, that's not a matter of opinion. You don't need the level of definition these guys have, at some point you look like a rat. Flat stomach, broad shoulders, strong arms and legs is why you work out. And of course your back. Three times a week is totally fine.

That one kid in your pic related should have also fixed his haircut and glasses. Granted you can't really fix your face but he seems so clueless about everything. There's no excuse to have a haircut like that IF you're trying to do something about your appearance, and he clearly cares, see selfies.

During the three years I worked out everything was better. Then I stopped and now everything is shit. I don't understand how people mess this up. I'm not a fit shill either, I just don't get it at all.

Why? The left girl has amazing body, is bursting with health, probably has shitload of confidence.

>Endurance yes, strength highly doubt it.

Yeah, and just going into a gym and lifting does NOT give you endurance. In fact, it's not good for your circulatory system at all.

People that do cardio regularly are probably the only true "healthy" people around.
>>
>>27862412
Can't tell if it's just the camera angle but your face looks a bit uneven, and facial asymmetry is one of the main reasons a face is considered unattractive.

If it's just the angle, then you would probably look pretty good if you lost weight. You don't even need to be skinny, just lose enough to where facial definition starts showing.

>>27862451
Her breasts and hips also look pretty small for her height, can't see the butt but probably the same thing.

Non-balance assisted one legged squats are bad for your knees. (Not for all, but one legged squats move your knees inward which produces unnecessary stress) Always balance yourself so that your center of mass doesn't change when you lift one leg up.

By the way, you're part right about the asymmetry. It's not my face though, it's my ears. Glasses leaning on them makes my face wonky if I don't adjust them occasionally.

Alright that's the last selfie though.
>>
>>27863199

You said you're 400 pounds? You don't even look that obese. If you'd lost weight, you'd have a chance at being attractive. And having light hair and eyes is a huge plus to most women.

First thing wrong with your shit, is the assumption that all you have to do for a body like the ones in the OP pic is lift, which is hilariously untrue. Most guys with that physique follow an extremely strict diet as well as a decent amount of cardio exercise.

The second, and much more important thing, is the assumption that the only goal of weightlifting, or fitness in general is looking good. Even if you are unbearably hideous (which none of the guys in the OP pic are) lifting will give you the following:

>a hobby and way to focus your energy
>a way to relieve stress in a productive way
>an opportunity to meet new people
>a stronger body
>better balance and control of your body
>stronger bones
>increased testosterone
>a more imposing figure (even if you're a manlet)
>a sense of progress and achievement
>an overall more satisfying feeling of being alive

Everyone should lift. Lifting isn't a meme or some kind of pick up artist bullshit. It's a way to improve your life. Unless you're a retard and end up with a major spinal injury.

tl;dr OP is a raging faggot who will never make it.

>>27863236
Somewhere between 380 and 420 (ayy)

I'm basically a football player what has a fat suit (but for real!) On.

I'd be 235 at 9% bodyfat. At least that was highschool, but I really like eating and drinking things that are terrible for me. Don't have the activity level to maintain it nor any real motivation to eat better.

I get enough numbers anyway because I have a pretty nice voice too and don't sperg all over myself with a 10-20 minute conversation.

Not that I'll ever call any of them. I can't handle relationship shit.
>>
>>27863329
You could do all of that with swimming, running, mountaineering, climbing and so on.

There is something more to lifting that makes people always recommend it and it's that it makes you look good.

>>27863626
I guess there has always been this desire for most men to be muscular which is why so many young men are drawn to it

Please note that I never said any of it was exclusive to lifting. (though the imposing figure and increased testosterone one from resistance training more than anything else) Picking something you enjoy trumps pretty much everything, the important thing is just the physical activity. Looking good should be a secondary goal, health and well being should always be first.

The thing about weightlifting is that it is very focused and adjustable. Strength is the only goal. It's easy to track progress and assuming you aren't doing Olympic lifts, you only need yourself most of the time. It's a lot like a video game in many respects, I have a feeling that is part of the reason why it's so popular around here.

>Looking good should be a secondary goal, health and well being should always be first.

>implying they're mutually exclusive
>>
>>27864435
They can be. Working an injured muscle, overloading weights, adhering to broscience, and taking hormonal/cutting supplements can fuck you up big time. If your first goal is being healthy, you wouldn't do any of that.

But what I meant is that looking good shouldn't be the reason you start lifting or climbing or whatever. You should start because you want to improve yourself, even if you're ugly or socially awkward.
>>
>>27856320
Jesus that's absolutely disgusting

>>27864634
>Working an injured muscle, overloading weights, adhering to broscience, and taking hormonal/cutting supplements
That has nothing to do with looking good. That's just plain stupidity. Lack of knowledge.

For an actual beauty vs health conflict look at bulimia. Those that fuck themselves up lifting did so without knowing the mistakes they did and their consequences.

It actually is quite difficult. And it does make you MORE attractive to be fit. THe problem is if you're not attractive to begin with to a girl then lifting weights isn't going to make them suddenly interested.

But it has made things unquestionably easier for a lot of guys i know. For me personally it never really made a difference. But I had a girl I know agree that it doesn't make you attractive if you aren't already.

yeah fuck working out. i lifted and ran 4 days a week for 2 years. i hardly got any bigger cuz of genetics. and now as a result of all that lifting and running, i have arthritis in my elbows and knees and my joints are fucked up.

working out is a con, the way i see it. another cash grab so gyms can make money, supplement companies can make money. our grandfathers didnt go the gym and they did fine. they were more of a "man" than we are. go hunting or try boxing if you want to do some good for yourself, rather than hitting the gym every day so you can take selfies of your abs for girls who you have no chance with.

if you see the big picture ... fat people , not the ones who eat 4 bigmacs/day and drinks 2 lts of coke daily, the ones who are just fat for no work out. have a lot of potential... they can even have pretty faces ... just watch on the faces of r9k threads and shit you gonna see post of a fat dude and comments like " you are not ugly, just fat " " lose weight and gonna become a chad" and all that shit.
