"I would say more women like gym fit guys on here than those who dont. Based on what?" Based on my own estimation. I'm not always right and might well be wrong this time. Im not saying women are shallow for liking a fit guy over a not so fit guy, but if you look at the "who's on your hotlist" threads currently running, I would "guess" that most of the guys mentioned have great bodies. Again, I could well be wrong. | |||

"FYI short messages saying just “hello” or “Hi” rarely get a good reception anyway. If someone gym fit only says one word in an opening message it can be perceived, rightly or wrongly, that they think they are so hot they do not even have to make an effort and we will fall at their feet.

"Happens to gym fit women too sometimes unfortunately. We were referred to another a thread a while back as “gym freaks” with “no personality”. As others have said - it’s a projection of insecurity. Pay no heed. And you look awesome by the way "Thanks so do you x | |||

Give me a chance I'm not that bad "I wouldn’t be that rude, but in all honesty, from personal experience all the gym fit guys i have met are up their own arse, most likely thought they were stepping down a standard to get a shag with me and tend to not branch out from just rough fast fucking ... i like a bit more of a tease and variety Yes i know not everyone is the same and i am being stereotypical but 100% of my own (bar 1) personal experience has been like this You might be the exception but when people have so much choice on here they have the luxury of assuming the rule Just accept that despite being very happy with your own physique you wont be everyone’s type and like others have said above their will be plenty more who do like a gym fit guy | |||

"Thanks for the nice messages. Wasn't meant to be a thread to boost my ego. Just a discussion. I never thought of it as being someone else's insecurities, that makes me feel a bit better cus I take things to heart and was a bit upset haha. Feel bit better now "People get jealous.

Because gyms are sterile dull places full of narcissists , apparently "People are ignorant. I go to a ladies only gym and the friends I’ve made there are the exact opposite of narcissistic - they’re warm and lovely, and a few of them are even slightly insecure about their bodies, but still making the effort to change what they aren’t happy about. And you know what, I fucking admire them so much.

He used to be a really big guy and has lost a tonne of weight and is now an absolute machine! He'll never look like some of the younger ones who have never been overweight though. The thing is many of them still come to him for help. He's had hateful comments from people because he's not ripped and still has a slight belly but the way he has transformed his body is phenomenal! People can be cruel. | |||

I even know a woman who used to have an eating disorder and considered herself to have recovered as she got really into fitness instead and gained enough muscle weight to have a healthy BMI but then her periods stopped as she had such a low body fat percentage and she has realised she wasn't in fact recovered, she had just switched one obsession for another.

I can hazard a guess that the difference is sitting in a hairdressers requires no effort but to sit and be pampered. Anyone can do that right? Takes dedication, commitment and a kick arse attitude to change yourself for the better using a gym and physical training. People aren’t willing to put the effort in so they perceive it as a threat. And when people feel under threat it’s easier to tear down and attack those who are able to accomplish what they’re not. Lifting weights does *not* come easy to me. I could have sat and watched ladies lifting and made shitty remarks and pulled them down - instead I allowed those women to be my inspiration - i put my big girl pants on and went in there and faced it head on with a positive mindset. It’s there for the taking for anyone who really wants it. End of sermon | |||

"They're probably projecting their own insecurity onto you. I wouldn't worry about it, you look good and plenty of people love gym fit guys. I'd agree it's probably this. Just because we work on our physique doesn't mean we think less of anyone or have an inflated sense of ego. Most people who work out do so for personal fulfilment and to feel good about themselves first and foremost, and not to brag or boast. Exactly. And not everyone who works out regularly has a "gym fit" body. I love the gym but haven't got a low enough body fat percentage to show muscle definition. It's funny because people then feel comfortable bad mouthing people who spend hours in the gym to me not realising I'm one of them .
Grrrr... why does anyone feel the need to bad mouth a person for going to a gym?! It genuinely baffles the life out of me.......
No idea. People seem to see it as a purely vanity thing. Personally it's a combination of things including health and preventing pain but even if people do go purely for vanity, I don't see why that's any different to spending hours in the hairdressers instead.
Exactly. I can hazard a guess that the difference is sitting in a hairdressers requires no effort but to sit and be pampered. Anyone can do that right? Takes dedication, commitment and a kick arse attitude to change yourself for the better using a gym and physical training. People aren’t willing to put the effort in so they perceive it as a threat. And when people feel under threat it’s easier to tear down and attack those who are able to accomplish what they’re not. Lifting weights does *not* come easy to me. I could have sat and watched ladies lifting and made shitty remarks and pulled them down - instead I allowed those women to be my inspiration - i put my big girl pants on and went in there and faced it head on with a positive mindset. It’s there for the taking for anyone who really wants it. End of sermon
I think there is an arrogant assumption in this though that we SHOULD want it ... people are entitled to like and dislike completely different things "I was waiting for someone to misinterpret it. I can assure you arrogant is absolutely not one of my personal qualities. This, in my mind, applies only to people who tear others down deliberately on the basis of their own insecurities and wishing they could do what that person can do. It’s *only* that group of people I am referring to here. If you are happy with your life and your body, and you don’t go around tearing others down, absolutely wonderful with me | |||

"There’s a context to my above comment, so just to make it clear ... The OP is referring to people who make assumptions about gym fit people as being “up the their own arse” etc. And there were a number of speculations on this post about where that stems from, one theory being insecurity and jealousy. That’s where my above comment was aimed - at that group of people. I’m not sitting here passing any judgement about people who have no interest in the gym. Of course I’m not. I couldn’t care what anyone’s interests are so long as they aren’t passing negative judgement on mine " | |||

"Exactly that. It's not about the body, or what they look like. I'm an active person, I just wouldn't find a lazy person attractive or find them compatible with my lifestyle But not going to a gym does not mean someone is automatically lazy
That is true of course. There are other ways to be active and some people have very active jobs. Others have obstacles that prevent them from being active.
I think my comment has been taken out of context.
I didn't mean, if you don't go the a gym you're lazy.
It was more aimed at the mental attitude of some people.
Some people have no 'Ooomph' are happy to eat, work, watch TV, sleep.
That kind of person I wouldn't be compatible with.
Im always on the go, never sit still.
I need to keep physically active, whether at the gym, at home or just out & about.
I'v put on 3st this year due to health issues I have no control over, so I don't look like what you'd consider gym fit at the moment, but I can still lift the same, smash out an hours hiit class.
"I think I know what you meant. It's not that if you don't go to the gym you're lazy, more that you know that those do go a lot probably aren't? | |||

Yes, the media assumes many unhelpful things I agree. But my comment wasn’t a reflection of that. My message was essentially “if you feel the need to tear down gym fit people because you’re insecure about your own body, how about don’t. Instead, let those people be your motivation, aspire to be as fit as them, and go kick some arse”. And rem_mber that the chances are - the person you’re tearing down with the seemingly “media perfect” body has been through their own struggles and battled their own demons to look in the mirror and feel a tiny bit happier with what they see. | |||

" A lot of people don't realise that eating disorders aren't the only form of body dysmorphia. I have met people before with it relating to muscle gain. It doesn't matter how big they get they still see themselves as small and weak. I even know a woman who used to have an eating disorder and considered herself to have recovered as she got really into fitness instead and gained enough muscle weight to have a healthy BMI but then her periods stopped as she had such a low body fat percentage and she has realised she wasn't in fact recovered, she had just switched one obsession for another. Of course not everyone who goes to the gym a lot has these issues but what I mean is that the perception that everyone who is very physically fit loves themselves and their bodies can be the complete opposite to the truth in some cases. I understand and sympathise with alot of this ... ive seen it happen too I think part of the confusion is though that people like myself are assumed to think they are obsessed with themselves when actually my assumption is they are obsessed with the gym and all that comes with it... which i just find so boring I couldn’t care less what someone can lift or what their body fat percentage is and eating chicken and steamed veg out of tupperware or worse ... beans and tuna gives me the heebie jeebies ... i would literally not have any common ground with someone whos life was centred round their gym life and physique ... no matter what their reasoning behind doing it was
What am i going to talk to them about ... lying in bed binge watching Netflix while i eat pizza
Well you would need to talk to them in order to find the common ground: both have fab in common. And I love pizza and currently watching endgame in bed and then going to watch 300 "Actually I'm not sure ,with such a narrow view and simplistic trite reasoning I might conclude there would be little room for intelligent common ground?

"There is a perception among some people that gym fit = vanity. And if a person goes to the gym and works hard on their body then they must be vain and shallow and somewhat narcissistic. It is the inverse perception that many motivated and healthy people have of the obese, that they must be lazy and lack discipline and be half-assed in all that they do. It is human nature to label, and make snap judgements. Such judgements are rarely accurate, but we don’t care, as we blithely go through life believing in our assumptions. If you don’t make them about a person’s appearance and fitness level, you will make them about their politics or social status or religion or sense of fashion, or education or ethnicity or... the list is endless. Sometimes you come up against it. Sometimes you don’t. It’s just how people are these days. Being gym fit doesn't equal vain. Being a lardy mess does mean poor discipline." Precisely.

"They're probably projecting their own insecurity onto you. I wouldn't worry about it, you look good and plenty of people love gym fit guys. I'd agree it's probably this. Just because we work on our physique doesn't mean we think less of anyone or have an inflated sense of ego. Most people who work out do so for personal fulfilment and to feel good about themselves first and foremost, and not to brag or boast. Exactly. And not everyone who works out regularly has a "gym fit" body. I love the gym but haven't got a low enough body fat percentage to show muscle definition. It's funny because people then feel comfortable bad mouthing people who spend hours in the gym to me not realising I'm one of them .
Grrrr... why does anyone feel the need to bad mouth a person for going to a gym?! It genuinely baffles the life out of me.......
No idea. People seem to see it as a purely vanity thing. Personally it's a combination of things including health and preventing pain but even if people do go purely for vanity, I don't see why that's any different to spending hours in the hairdressers instead."For once Lacey, you and I are in agreement! There's nothing wrong with people using the gym for purely vanity benefits at all, like you said people use hairdressers and many many other things for vanity - and vanity isn't the worst thing in the world anyways! I'm happy to admit my goals were purely vanity based. I had reached 20 stone and after seeing some photos of myself I had to change. Now admittedly health benefits came along with getting in shape, but they weren't my motivation to work out and diet, I wanted to look better. I'd never been slim or in shape, and always envied guys that were. I'm now pretty jacked, and proud of my hard work | |||

And herein the lies the problem.. people not being able to deal with the fact someone doesn't find them attractive. Brat replied earlier saying how we specifically mentions on our profile aren't looking for big muscles / gym bods. Brat doesn't like them. That's it. Nothing offensive. No nasty reasoning. Just her preference.. Yet we get people message despite that. Some haven't read the profile, some chose to ignore it and have the attitude of "oh well. Of course you'll want me. Look at me." It isn't everyone, it's just a percentage. Same as anything else. But it's highly irritating and rude. | |||
