The Big Muscle Look Is Dead In Hollywood

By: Rusty Moore
 

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

Remember when Hollywood's action stars were massively muscular? Back in the 80's when Arnold Schwarzenegger was Hollywood's leading man, bodybuilding became mainstream for a short period of time. It led to a whole generation of guys who wanted to gain as much muscle as possible. It has been over 20 years since Terminator came out, and yet the fitness industry still feels the impact of that movie.

The Big Muscle Look Began to Die in the Late 90's

Ever watched a soap opera. Although I think they are terrible, they aren't made for me they are made for women. Have you ever seen a large bodybuilder type guy as one of the actors in a soap opera? The answer is no! Women are attracted to lean and slim guys who look great in and out of clothes. Women just aren't attracted to massive guys for the most part.

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

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.

Actors Have Slimmed Down in Record Numbers Since 1999

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 Stuck In The Late 80's and 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!
