From that routine, you're only working your upper body. What about the lower body? Many guys in the gym work the upper part but lag behind in the legs making them disproportional.

Unless you're actually bodybuilding, you won't notice any disproportionality. In fact, most guys who work out don't do much for their legs. Some of them actually believe that working out your legs negatively effects your uppperbody strength.

I try to work out every other day. Nothing too serious, just using free weights to strengthen my upper body.

Truth. We call guys who only train chest and arms 'Beachies' because they are training to look good at the beach. Leg training actually assists indirectly in building upper body strength because the large movements like squats and deadlifts indirectly stress the upper body as well.
I know so many girls who complain about stick legs.

Oops, sorry, I forgot to mention that I get about 1-2 hours of badminton every day, plus 30 mins of cardio during the night.


In regards to my legs, I don't focus AS MUCH, but considering I do quite a bit of running and whatnot, it still helps. I don't think it makes me disproportional though. I see tons of people who don't focus on their legs: eg. a good friend of mine, a teacher, has been working out for 10 years now, and he is ripped. Oh boy, its tough finding him a shirt that won't explode once he puts it on. Anyway, he has very skinny legs, you know those chicken legs?

So personally, I don't believe it'll make you disproportional. It shouldn't - I doubt even using the military press would do that.....but maybe....

My workout consists of thinking about working out for about an hour and then faking exhaustion. Works great, my ass has never been softer.

I'm more of a lose weight the way god intended it kinda guy, through stress and malnutrition.

I am doing this 8minutes abs and arms program from TV each morning, so that's ~16 minutes each day, I just don't think that I'm willing to do more.

I've heard that it also helps overall body strength because the large muscles in the legs tend to cause you to release more testosterone when you work them out which gets absorbed by the upperbody muscles too that are probably in the process of healing from the upperbody work out most people start their weeks with.

I have an inconsistant workout schedule that changes constantly I workout at least 5 times a week. I used to go to the gym but I was asked to never come back because I was sneaking in under the radar and getting in for free on a daily basis. Yeah so that's my routine.

I have to agree about the 'Chicks don't care if you work out' comment.

But let me just add to that.

'INTELLIGENT chicks don't care if you work out'. My girlfriend is what I would define as very hot, and yet she doesn't care that I don't look like Hulk Hogan and that my penis is not slowly fading into oblivion because I'm taking too many supplements...

But on the other hand, I try to stay fit, I have a bang ass treadmill in my basement so I run regularly, rollerblade alot to keep the legs healthy, and hum... yea, DDR... that's a damn workout for you lazy folk.

Working out = looking like Hulk Hogan and taking supplements?

That's usually what happens in extreme cases. As muscle mass increases, brain mass reverse-proportionally decresasses until you get to the point where your favorite hobby is looking at yourself in the mirror.

Hey don't get me wrong I have nothing against working out. I do, however, believe, that it's fucking hillarious to see someone not be able to scratch his own fucking back because his muscles are in the way...

Theres a difference between being a meat head, and being toned and healthy.

Yes, and that is why I made the distinction between the two very clear in my post.

Yeah, only the thing about extreme cases is that they don't ''usually'' happen (that's why they're called ''extreme'').

Actually you didn't; you just stated that chicks don't care if you work out (period), and then went on to say something about Hulk Hogan and penises fading away.

If you read carefully I said I was agreeing with the previous statement. Which in term means that I personally think that the chicks I want to hang around don't care about working out or muscle-heads.

All I wanted to say in the first place is that being in shape will not guarantee you women. And not being in shape will not guarantee that you don't get women. This is a fact. You can phrase it and interpret it however you like. From my personal experience, it seems to be because women, in general, are just not interested in how much you can bench.

Since when is every "very hot" chick automatically not intelligent?

All chicks that want their boyfriends to take supplements (or wish they would do it) are not unintelligent, they are massively retarded.

Now that's true. Being in shape will not automatically ''get you women'', however I don't think you can deny that being considerably out of shape does put you at an initial disadvantage, even if it's only about the first impression.

Being in shape is just a neutral state that doesn't gurantee anything, however; I completely agree with that.

Mush... I don't think you quite read my post correctly, since the way you say it, I would have admitted my GF to be 'not intelligent', while on the other hand... she manages to do better than me in college.

Why would you comment a statement like 'INTELLIGENT chicks don't care if you work out' with another statement like 'My girlfriend is what I would define as very hot, and yet she doesn't care that...' then?

I wouldn't qualify myself as the work-out type guy... so if she DID care, she wouldn't be with me now would she.

I'm going to have to blame this whole misunderstanding on my 'english as a second language' issue... maybe I'm just not making as much sense as I think I am.

I dunno dude, if she really loved you, she would be with you even if she DID care.

If she DID care, she would have never loved me in the first place... no ?

Anyways, I have absolutely nothing to say against her she's by far the best girl I've been with since forever... and I sure hope it'll stay like that. Now, back on topic... don't take them pills, you'll grow tits.

Dude there are more important things in lyfe~ Look, I dunno about your girlfriend, but in most cases, there's always something that bugs them. I have a friend who's very good looking but he smells like shit because he's never heard of a facility called "shower" and his girlfriend hates that about him but she still loves him. <3
