Ryan Gosling stands out no matter what he is wearing. This is the type of look guys should strive for.

Muscle Peacoking

Paul mentioned peacocking before. What is peacocking? And might a muscular body be the best way to peacock?

In pick up, peacocking essentially means that a guy uses an outstanding accessory, so that people (hopefully girls) will comment on it, therefore they can have a conversation and then get laid. It could be a funny watch or a colorful t-shirt.

I heard an interesting theory about peacocking and how the term actually arose: If you look at a male peacock that gets laid a lot, you will notice that it has blue and outstanding feathers. These feathers DO NOTHING except attracting females. It can’t fly with it, it can’t fight with it and it is actually backfiring because predators will find the colorful peacock easily.

You don’t need to be big to look strong. Zac Efron is 5’10″ 160 lbs.

The point of it is to display survival value (I’m kind of into primal like pick up lol). By having such visible feathers and not getting killed, the peacock shows that it knows how to flee from predators, perhaps how to fight them and good places to hide. Obviously females want that for their children, so they decide to mate with the peacock.

Let’s get back to the human world. I personally have experienced an issue with colorful clothes and accessories. EVERYBODY WEARS THEM! Seriously, if you go to any store, even vogue brands like Calvin Klein or Armani, they all sell this colorful stuff. So with current popular brand clothing, it is hard to really stand out (peacock).

My personal favorite way of peacocking is working out with weights. You will actually gain more than just a new t-shirt or accessory (I’m talking about improving life as a whole) and you will make it clear that there is more to you than spending money at the mall. Whenever I’m at public places (it doesn’t even have to be a club or something like that) people notice my body. Peacocking much? Damn straight!

I have to include a picture of a hottie!

Lots of women say that they feel secure around a muscular man. Does it make sense? I mean most of the people reading this live in a place where they can simply call the cops if they are in trouble. It really doesn’t have to make sense, it’s all about the feeling of security that a woman gets around a broad shouldered man.

Another part of “muscle-peacocking” is that you display that you are confident enough in yourself to show what you worked so hard for. I’m not talking about taking steroids and wearing a shirt 3 sizes smaller than what is necessary, that’s just insecure. What I mean is showing that you take care of yourself and that you have respect for yourself. Ergo you present survival value. Trust me on this one, people will comment on this and girls like it.

For example, I went to a house party a few months ago and ended up hooking up with a girl. We went to the bathroom and took each others clothes off. Oh boy! When I took my shirt of she stood there with her mouth wide open, it seemed as if she were completely paralyzed. If I hadn’t interfered by kissing her, I don’t know how much longer she would have stood there just looking at me. I think you can guess how things went along from there. Btw, I have lots of stories like that.

Another time I went to a club with a few buddies of mine. I ended up hanging out with another group because my friends left and I wanted to stay. I got so many compliments for my body it was pretty ridiculous, I must admit though, most of the compliments were from the guys (not gay!) at our table. But that really fired me up! My confidence was boosted through the roof and I started approaching the hottest girls at the club. Sadly I didn’t get any action, but what I did get was a learning experience. Ever since that night I have NO PROBLEM approaching and talking to hot girls!

Let’s be honest, the reason most guys don’t get the action they want is not because of money, looks or status. The real reason is that they simply don’t approach girls and most of the time if they do, they don’t know what to say or do. Except of course if you know that you’re hot and get confidence boosts due to comments and looks from others all the time.

The couple that workouts together stays together!

All in all, building a butch body is the best way of peacocking in my book. You get lots of compliments, attention, respect and the list goes on and on. Not only will you improve your game but you will also improve your whole life! Some examples include: health, improved mental acuity, better sex, less depression and so on and so forth. I hope you stop investing time in buying “trendy” clothes and start investing time in the gym.

Most programs will have you looking like a stage ready fitness competitor within 6 months, which is good if you want to compete. Most guys just want to have abs and a body that women actually desire (not a spray tan bodybuilder).

Making Mistakes

If you’ve been following my blog for awhile then you have probably read my post Smile’s Guide To Awesome Living. Well one of my rules for single guys is never let a woman you’re attracted to just pass you by. You’ll end up just kicking yourself in the ass for it.

This isn’t her but she was sitting there just reading a book by herself.

The other day I didn’t follow my own advice and I let a really attractive girl just pass me by without saying anything to her. I was hanging out next to the pool with a few buddies of mine just drinking a few beers talking and there was this gorgeous girl a few chairs down from us. She was out there for about 30 minutes while we were and I didn’t say anything to her. I told myself that I was out here hanging out with the guys so I shouldn’t focus on women but you know what that was just an excuse. My guy friends wouldn’t have cared if I walked away for a few minutes to talk to her and as a matter of fact they would have thought it was awesome. I have been regretting not talking to her ever since that day. Now you might be asking yourself why am I telling you this?

First to demonstrate it is ok to make mistakes! No one is perfect and making a mistake every once in awhile reminds you of why you do certain things. I don’t let women I’m really attracted to pass me by because you never know what can come from a quick random conversation with an attractive woman.

Next is lifestyle changes take a long time and you will fall off the bandwagon every once in awhile. Whether it is improving your physique, your finances, your career, or your success with women. No matter how much you improve these parts of your life every once in awhile you’ll make a mistake. Mistakes are fine as long as you learn from them and get back to your new and improved habits!

So remember no one is perfect and every mistake is a learning experience. As long as you’re putting yourself out there and working hard to reach your goals you will improve your life! This is Smile signing off until next time!
