What muscle groups are the most important in attracting women?

Asked by Shield_of_Achilles (1906points) January 20th, 2010

Which muscle groups would you say are the best for a guy to have?

I’m going on a trip this summer and I want to be looking good for all the people that get to see me. What should I work on?

why are you working the glamour muscles?

judochop's avatar

Work on the love muscle. It’s the one that does the most work anyway. Make sure it does not get tired to quick.

Axemusica's avatar

@judochop not sure if you knew this, but it’s an organ. Just thought I’d say that.

Shield_of_Achilles's avatar

@eponymoushipster Because I’m already strong as an ox and tough as nails. I just wanna look good.

@judochop I don’t have a heart. It was violently ripped from my chest yesterday.

Ow. I’d say work your pecs so they can’t break through your chest so easily.

Likeradar's avatar

Your brain.

Depends on the the lucky one that “gets to see” you.~ I’m into forearms.

faye's avatar

Thighs, strong long muscle.

WCUBassBone1's avatar

@sliceswiththings hahaha!!

I’ve always been a fan of biceps, triceps and calves.

judochop's avatar

@Axemusica
ORLY?
But the heart is?

Shield_of_Achilles's avatar

@Likeradar I dono how lucky they would consider it.

Axemusica's avatar

@judochop the heart is both, but usually another part of the body is referred to as “The Love Muscle”. Either that, or my mind is so far in the gutter that I see everything covered with dirt. ;)

judochop's avatar

Seriously, pilates and running are the best things to do for your muscles. Also add tons of stretching. Big muscles are gross and worthless. You want long, lean muscles.

Facade's avatar

All of them from top to bottom. That’s not asking for too much is it?

Shield_of_Achilles's avatar

@Facade Didnt you know? Im the one that can take the world on my shoulders and come out without even a cramp.

borderline_blonde's avatar

I agree with @judochop – an athletic, lean body is hot. Big muscles make me want to gag.

sjmc1989's avatar

I completely agree with @judochop I can’t think of anything sexier than a guy that is really lean, not bulky.

Shield_of_Achilles's avatar

I’m not a very large guy at all, so bulk is actually something I could probably use a little more of.

I guess I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing and hope for the best.

Axemusica's avatar

Well so far this thread has made me happy >;)

sjmc1989's avatar

@Shield_of_Achilles I really think you should work with what you have. If you are naturally a lean guy, work out and get in shape, but don’t try and bulk up. Usually when guys have a lean body type and then they bulk up and put a lot of muscle on it look unnatural. There are a lot more girl out there than you think they would rather of leaner guy, then a big bulky guy.

tb1570's avatar

Your wallet muscle.

sjmc1989's avatar

@Axemusica Are you saying that you are lean and play guitar?? I knew I liked you!

Axemusica's avatar

Who me? um…. I um… didn’t “sayyy” that… but yes. :)

sjmc1989's avatar

@Axemusica You already had me guitar and then with modesty :)

Develop your temporal lobe muscle, your cerebral cortex muscle, your limbic system muscle, and you occipital lobe muscle and do many workouts to strengthen your integrity, your sensitivity and your respect skills.

Shield_of_Achilles's avatar

I’m a smart guy, I just don’t have the motivation to really show it.
I’m very perceptive, and can read people very well.
I have integrity and high morals, they kinda fell by the wayside when i started drinking heavily, but that’s on it’s way out.

The only thing I can’t say I have is sensitivity. But that’s because I don’t have a heart.

sjmc1989's avatar

You have a heart it has just been broken. If you didn’t have a heart it wouldn’t hurt as much as it does. “A heart can be broken, but keeps beating just the same”. I am just guessing you are having some relationship/love issues, sorry to asssume though

Shield_of_Achilles's avatar

Don’t worry about it. You’re kinda right.

But it doesn’t hurt at all anymore. I’ve accepted a lot in the past hour, including the fact that I was never meant to love. Just serve and protect.

Non-Physical? the brain

Violet's avatar

I hate a guy with a 6 pack, or a guy who lifts weights in general. I guess the hands are the most important.

Pandora's avatar

I like the biceps and strong hands.

Fyrius's avatar

I think the prefrontal cortex is the most important.

And I’m the kind of person who gets judgemental about people working out for looks instead of for health or strength.

BoBo1946's avatar

@Violet just curious, why the hands MsV?

@johnpowell oh, gotcha John!

jrpowell's avatar

I had a friend that targeted certain muscle groups and he ended up looking like a few walnuts stuffed into condom. It was just awkward. I would shoot for a lean and toned look if you are skinny. Swimming is really fantastic to get toned.

BoBo1946's avatar

@johnpowell when i was in college, my basketball coach put us in the weigh room. Never did like to lift the weighs…thought the weighs effected (or is it, affected..loll..whatever) my shooting. That was a longtime ago. Today, they lift the weighs everyday.

Austinlad's avatar

The confidence muscle.

jrpowell's avatar

@BoBo1946 :: I played a lot of b-ball too. So much of shooting from the outside was muscle memory. I was always worried about my mind not getting the changes to my strength fast enough and I would hit the the bleachers with the ball.

Steve_A's avatar

I think most women prefer a nice lean,cut-up guy. Big and bulky is not sexy from what I have heard from women but again to each there own.

I say if your going to a beach or something with no shirt get a 6 pack brother :)

I’d say arms,chest,abs,legs and your gluteus maximus(your ass lol) over all is best I think being proportion big arms and no chest is like eh ya know? And so on…..

and wear clothes that help show off your sexy muscles ;)

BoBo1946's avatar

@BoBo1946 loll..regardless of your muscle memory, that occasionally will happen to the best of them. If Larry Bird can shoot an air-ball, anyone can!

Trillian's avatar

@Shield_of_Achilles I’m a little bit worried about you. You just got done telling us that you had your heart ripped out. Now you want to exercise to attract a female who you imply, (or I infer) is going to be with you based only on your looks. But consider; If that is the case, you’ll always be threatened by the next guy who has a leaner stomach, A more pronounces cut to his chest, or whatever. And when she moves on, how hurt are you going to be again?
Maybe, I don’t know, you could take the middle path, strengthen and tone but try to connect with someone with whom you share some common interests and goals. I’d like for you to post some questions like; “This girl is so crazy about me she made breakfast three days in a row. What can I do to top that?”

Work on all of them for balance and symmetry.

wunday's avatar

I’m thinking shoulders and pecs. A fancy car would help, too. But be understated in presentation. Wear a loose shirt, not a tight T. Let it be something they can discover only if they get close to you. Walk easily, with confidence, but with no need to brag. Focus on other things on your trip, anyway. Learn a lot. Eat good food. See beautiful things. Meet the people. You’ll look just fine.

@BoBo1946 he does construction-type work, he’s great at fixing things, building things, etc etc He’s a handy man around the house : )
