Here are some tips on how to meet, date, and hookup with a bodybuilder.
1. There aren't a lot around
Many people lift weights -- strength training is an essential component of physical fitness. A small percentage, maybe about a third of the guys at the campus gym and a tenth of the guys at the YMCA, get some mass and definition, through dedication, proper form, and genetics.
But the bodybuilder is striving for competitive-quality muscle size, definition, and symmetry. There are three or four who work out at the campus gym, and maybe two at the YMCA.
2. But they are available
Bodybuilders spend their lives being touched, fondled, judged, evaluated, looked at, and lusted at by other men. A few are homophobic, but the majority have no qualms about getting down with a guy, even if they prefer women for romance.
3. Most are in their 20s and 30s.
Teenagers typically lack the time and stamina for bodybuilding, and after 40, you're fighting an uphill battle. Muscle doesn't turn to fat -- that's a myth -- but as your metabolism and activity level decline, if you don't watch your eating habits, you will add fat. Many former bodybuilders are pleasantly plump in their 50s and 60s.
4. You need to be knowledgeable.
They have devoted their lives to learning how the body works, how the muscle groups can be trained, how to achieve their optimal mass and definition. If you don't know anything about muscles except that they're pretty, you will be unlikely to catch their attention, and if you do, you'll have nothing to talk about on your date.
5. You need another selling point.
They talk about muscles and fitness all day. While you should be knowledgeable, you must have another selling point, something that makes you stand out in the crowd: a face, a penis, a sense of humor, creative or intellectual accomplishments. I go with celebrity hookup stories or being multi-lingual.
