Why Large Muscles Are Out Of Style In Hollywood

Actors Now Aim to Be Slim and Toned, Not Bulky!

Remember back in the 80's when Arnold Schwarzenegger was the big action star? He was huge. He basically brought bodybuilding to the mainstream and influenced an entire generation of young guys to want to get as big and muscular as possible. It started with Conan, then the Terminator, Commando, Predator, Twins, and many more action flicks.

The Large Muscle Look Has Never Impressed Women As Much As Men

Women like guys who look great in a suit, jeans, with or without their clothes on. Massively muscular guys simply don't do anything for most women. Soap operas are popular with women, because they fulfill their fantasies. Women love the type of looks you see in soap operas. Even in the 80's when Arnold ruled, women preferred the lean and slimmer guys with decent muscle definition over the excessive muscle look.

Almost 10 Years Ago, When Fight Club Came Out, The Big Muscle Look Died

For years during the big muscle era, women kept trying to tell guys that they were more interested in muscle definition and not into the bodybuilder look. Guys didn't really listen until 1999, when Fight Club came out. Brad Pitt finally showed the masses of guys out there that being ultra-lean with a normal build is more bad-ass looking than being huge and bulky. Brad's character, Tyler Durden, was able to get a hip and funky look, but had amazing muscle definition when he took his shirt off. This is a winning combination with the ladies and all actors are now striving for this look.

Hollywood's Leading Men Have Opted For The Slim Look For Close To 10 Years

Remember how big The Rock used to be? He is now MUCH lighter and looks great. What about Mark Wahlberg or Ryan Reynolds? Both of these guys have really slimmed down and have the sleek and toned look instead of being bulky. Same with Matt Damon. More recently Will Smith really slimmed down for his role in I am Legend. He had to get big and bulky for Ali, but dropped a lot of that mass and really cleaned up his physique for his newest role.

Are You Still Trying to Get Massive?

Want to look terrible in a suit or casual clothes, then aim for the bodybuilder look. Large muscles do not impress women at all. You may gain the attention from guys in the gym who are also trying to get big, but women won't give you a second glance. There are always exceptions to the rule, but those are just exceptions. You may actually want to open your eyes and observe what women find sexy. Hint, it isn't the large muscle look!
