Hollywood’s Leading Man No Longer Has Large Muscles

by Rusty Moore

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.

1999, the Year Fight Club Came Out, Was The Official Death of the Massive Look

Brad Pitt did women a big service in the movie Fight Club. He finally got the message through to many men, that women truly do like the lean and toned look. The year after Fight Club came out Brad Pitt was voted Sexiest Man Alive in People Magazine. The great thing about Fight Club was that it was kind of a soap opera for guys. Tyler Durden did crazy things that we thought were kind of cool in a weird sense. In fact I would say that Fight Club and Top Gun are movies really well written for guys. There is something about these movies that speak to us. So we paid attention to Brad Pitt in this movie. It was actually the first time I respected him as a guy’s guy.

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

Have you followed the career of Will Smith. He went from skinny, to very muscular for a few of his roles. For the movie I am Legend, Will Smith has slimmed down considerably. He now looks better than ever and I doubt he will ever go for that bulky look again. What about Johnny Depp? He actually got somewhat bulky back in the days of 21 Jump Street. After that was over he slimmed down substantially and women now find him one of the sexiest men in Hollywood. Can you imagine him in Pirates of the Caribbean the size of Arnold Schwarzenegger? He would look stupid!

Are You Stuck In The Late 80’s and Trying To Get Massive?

What impresses guys in the gym is a turn-off for women in the outside world. Sure there are some women who like the massive look. Heck, there are men who like women with excessive body hair. I am not trying to impress the 4 gym bunnies, I want to attract a beautiful woman out in the outside world. If you want to have a cheesiness factor when you wear a suit or jeans, then get as big as possible. Sure most people will think you are corny, but your buddies in your gym will think you are a god. If your goal is to attract women, you may want to reconsider gaining excessive muscle.
