Do guys who work out want to date a fit girl?

Question

I'm talking about guys who are very toned and muscular. Do guys like that mind a girl who has some curves and isn't super thin or do they want a girl who super fit and on their level?

So I'm going to copy and paste something my boyfriend said the other day. He's a bodybuilder by the way.

Cellulite and stretch marks make a girl human like. I mean don't get me wrong. If it's excessive, then it will be turn off but stretch marks is pretty normal with women and a little cellulite isn't as normal but, it's fine as long as it's not excessive. Bodyfat? Well women tend to carry bodyfat A LOT better than men. Estrogen vs testosterone dominant fat patterns etc. I don't want me a fat and out of shape chick, but some extra bodyfat is fine. When men get fat, they sort of lose that masculine touch and appearance. Extra bodyfat = softer body.. Softer body = not masculine and therefore feminine. Women having a soft body is normal and feminine so there's not that dramatic of a difference in how it feels and how it aesthetically looks.

The whole thing with stretch marks and cellulite making a girl "human". I mean, humans in general are attracted to flaws. The psychology that surrounds that is because flaws are relatable. It's hard to be attracted to something that differentiates so much further than what you're used to seeing and feeling. This is why a lot of people aren't attracted to those flawless Instagram models. It's not relatable. It's not what they see on a daily basis. It's like another species so to speak.

There was a study done in which they mixed over 1000 different extremely attractive faces and correlated the facial ratios and dimensions to essentially create the perfect face. They then took a giant poll. A sample study of varying demographics to be specific. That perfect face that they had created for male and female was rated merely average according to that study.

I think most guys who work out would want a girl who works out as well. It's not just a hobby for them, it's a lifestyle. People who are serious about fitness work out five days a week. So you have to understand that if he's in the gym five days a week, eating healthy and you're at home eating just whatever you want then that's two totally different lifestyles. He might start to feel like he has more in common with girl he always sees in the gym. My fiancé and I love working out. He actually was a trainer for years and even competed in body building competitions. I'm not as hardcore as he is but I do work out a lot and eat healthy. His ex-wife was the same way. So yeah, men who work out want someone who works out too. Someone who keeps them motivated and will eat healthy with them.

This is a tricky question because you can be thick & fit or curvy & toned (same thing). I don't see men calling women with toned bodies with small waists and big assets "fat"

To me, that woman in the photo is a skinny pipsqueak and not what I would call fit

Men have different taste... I would say most men desire a feminine woman who is curvy and toned= the perfect hip to waist ratio, the perfect fat and muscle ratio

Regardless, to each their own

I got injured and have been out of fitness for 4 months BUT I used to workout every day on a strict muscle group rule and diet system.
I've lived the live bigtime and I'll get back into it if my damn elbow stops tearing up.

Anyway,

MOST super fitness guys are shallow. VERY shallow. Hell, you don't want to hear what they are like with only other guys. DAMN. Hell so shallow they think the world owes them and no one is worth a thing.
Pretty much 95% of guys demand and equally fit girl and then when they are with them they think she's not good enough.

HOWEVER there are 5%(guesstimate) of guys who do not care.

There is a huge problem with dating non-fitness girls though which almost forced me to date very fit girls:
1. When I was walking on the street every now and then a girl would whistle however pretty much all women walking on the street would not be open to be approached because they assumed I'm full of myself or they didn't have the confidence to believe I'm interested in them (meanwhile I'm the one sweating to talk to them).
On the other hand when I went to the gym all of th fitness girls where just looking for the major weight massive most popular Mr boxer popular dude.
2. When I did date non fitness girls they often were bitter about it because I had a lot of motivation and self discipline. Obviously I didn't talk and jabber about nutrition but obviously they could tell that I care a great deal on eating certain spices, protein, fat, vitamins, and working out.
It made the girls feel like lazy slobs. I never judged them but they assumed I'm just obsessed.

It's a lose/lose thing for fitness guys in dating.

She doesn't have to be a fitness freak but a bit of conciousness about a healthy lifestyle & fitness is always appreciated. Moreover its like having a person in your life with a same drive and passion.

Arcari · Answer

First of all... that picture you use to reference the subject.. no way in hell.. to skinny. I like a little more of body on a girl.

What do you mean with fit? like skinny or like muscular or ripped?

On my own preference i like a woman with curves, in fact if have to choose, i prefer with some more pounds instead of less than what it should. I like curves. Honestly if the curves are nice i dont really care if she have a six pack of abs or not. i just dont want have a better ass than my girl.

At the end. I dont care how much a woman workouts.. i just like to know that she takes care of her own body and healt

ShortCircuit · Answer

I do like girls with nice figures, but I don't want a girl who is anywhere near as fit as I am.  Something like this is too flabby:  Something like this is too fit:  Something like this is just right:

Underduress · Answer

It is more about her eating and exercise lifestyle rather than if she has a couple curves. When I work out I do it first for health, then performance for physical tasks, and last to look good. I would say that the more I work out the better I feel and the more energy I have. As I feel better I start to become picky and fussy about what I eat or drink. For example I went from a drink once in a while to not at all because it conflicted with my fitness. So what happens to me is I become particular about the women I go with because I don’t want to go Mac-doogles if she needs a junk food binge rush. I mostly get particular about her eating and the fact that she works out. I no way in hell would go with a smoker e. g.. So, the women that I go with tend to be thin and can run the distance I can just because it is mutual ground. Really both of us expect it from each other.

honestibrahim · Answer

Sometimes although women who are bit thicker with child bearing hips are off the chain. It sounds weird said like that but we as a species are attracted by primal tendencies. First some people might like the opposite of what they are because they see strength and beauty in those qualities which may serve them well by teaming up with that person so to speak. Another set of factors are physical and happen in our subconscious. To ensure successful offspring people subconsciously react to pheromones and to body shape. We are sometimes attracted to the person that we will have successful offspring with because it's just natural that way. So to answer your question, you never really know

Anonymous · Answer

Me personally I want a girl who isn't fat. Why? Not because I don't like chubby girls, i do. However dating many of them has shown me that chubby girls are mental wrecks. They put strain on the relationship that doesn't have to be there. Maybe that's because I've always been way fitter than my chubby girlfriends and thus they were easily jealous or suspicious of me. But I've never done anything to make any girlfriend think I was a cheater and I've never cheated, I'm awful with women!

So now I'm done with them. I want a hot girl, one because she's hot. Two because the many problems that comes with a chubby girl won't be there. I suppose having a thin girl will have it's own problems. Maybe it's all a delicate balance and I'll soon see it doesn't matter, there will always be problems. But maybe thin girl problems are more tolerable?

G-Daz · Answer

I'm pretty musuclar and work out. I've actually never wanted a really toned woman, not someone who has none but i don't really like visible muscle on girls that much. I prefer thick (thick thighs, curves etc)

I just would prefer to have someone that is interested in doing things. I almost dated a girl who slept anywhere and everywhere and was an additional effort because I had to pick up after her. Attitude is most important

danny_boy24 · Answer

I consider myself to be fit and I do my best to at least go to the gym 4 days out of the week. I am not as disciplined as others, but I'm happy, content, and there is a sense of satisfaction that enhances my self esteem and I don't mean ego I sincerely mean your self worth. That being said I also want that special girl to feel that same satisfaction and self worth that comes from disciplining yourself in a healthy way that enhances the body and mind.

wingattebaby16 · Answer

I think the girl in the picture is super fit.

most fit guys i know like either really skinny girls or a girl with great curves.

I dont know any fit guys that really want to date a fit girl.

Now... average guys will kill to date a fit girl. It is all about the girl's looks and most average guys love a girl with a totally flat tummy and no cellulite on the legs or butt.

WhiteIverson · Answer

Not exactly. All depends on the guy. I'm not the most fit guy, but I do like women that is a bit fit. I don't like when someone is too skinny. Either way, everyone is different. I like someone who has a great body, but I want more personality the most. If they look great but are crappy person, then forget them.

fabulouspancakes · Answer

I'm not a guy but I think so. Even fat guys want fit girls if they can get them, and fat girls usually want fit guys if they can get them. It's just that usually only fit people get fit people.
That being said, definitions for "fit" can vary. To some people it seems to just mean "slim/healthy/in good shape," while to others it seems to mean "visibly muscular." I'd say not all men want a visibly muscular woman, though many do.

Anonymous · Answer

I'm plus size and I have dated plenty of slim and fit guys. One time I even had a body builder interested in me. Everyone has different preferences. My current boyfriend is conventionally attractive, he works out and is pretty hot :)

You can date whomever you want! There is a lid for every pot!

mousybun · Answer

Depends on the guy~ I think the majority of super fit guys will say they want a fit girl. Because it also gives a common interest. :) My boyfriend is pretty fit, works out a ton. But I only go out jogging maybe once or twice a week, and I'm a bit chubby :) Still loves me~ So depends on who you're talking to.

FrenchiFresh · Answer

My ex was a super fit gym freak, & I was by no means on his fitness level lol but he still liked me & my body. So no, I don't think it does matter.

Zeead38 · Answer

IdkSomethingRandom · Answer

I mean, I want curves *and* muscle. Plenty women have both and that's what I chase xP if she can't take a rough 'n tumble she ain't worth it.

Then again I'm like, maddeningly picky. Smart, aesthetically pleasing (i don't need a ten/ten model) capable, tough and stubborn. It almost doesn't exist anymore :/

Euph0ria · Answer

I'm sure motivations for staying fit vary from individual to individual. Some just want to stay fit and be healthy and/or feel confident about themselves. I imagine that some do want to find a partner who is also fit and from that they share a motivation to stay fit and help each-other to that end. That certainly isn't to say that someone who stays fit is specifically doing so to try to date women who are at the pinnacle of fitness.

savalisk · Answer

Legitimate (blessed by the gods of genetics) curves are great.
You can look good, fit or not, but if your boring as hell, can't hold a conversation, for example, that can cancel out your looks real fast.

Misunderstood07 · Answer

I love to work out but I wouldn't care if my girl was fit or not, just as long as she's healthy. I'm gonna love her for her not her lifestyle

John7119 · Answer

Yes to working out and basically just someone who looks good and in shape. Not saying fit but doesn't look like ice cream is their main portion of their diet. I work 7 days a week sometimes twice a day and my girlfriend doesn't set foot in a gym and I'm still happy and think she looks great. But girlfriend workout buddy would def be a plus lol

jsroberts1987 · Answer

Fit doesn't mean skin and bones. Guys like a girl that is healthy and like me, like a girl with a little muscle. When you start working out it kind of gives a new perspective on girls who are fit and healthy. So yeah, at least in my opinion, guys like a girl who works hard in the gym and is fit. In my opinion there is nothing more attractive than seeing a girl in the gym sweating and working hard towards a fitness goal.

englisc · Answer

It depends on what you mean by curves. Curves as in a girl at a healthy weight with an hourglass shape? Yeah. Curves as in an overweight girl? No not usually.

ozzyalf · Answer

I personally don't care about that, I mostly go for face. I wouldn't assume either or. The biggest reason why that may happen often it's because of a shared interest in body sculpting or convince.

KaseyRouqe · Answer

I like working out and eating healthy, but most of the guys I've dated weren't exactly like me. I honestly don't like guys that are too muscular. Not a big fan of abs either. But I also wouldn't date a guy who's lazy and doesn't take care of himself.

BeerFarts · Answer

I prefer girls that have average, fit, or toned bodies. I don't mind if a girl is curvy as long as she's really curvy like J-Lo, Kim K and not "curvy" like Ashley Graham.

random56286 · Answer

If I go by looks alone, I am attracted to women with strength and muscle tone but I also appreciate women with a softer and more feminine figure.

SpoiledBrat22 · Answer

Usally all the hunks iv dated want a hott bitch on their level and super fit. i think it, s because they have huge egos of themselfs as they look good...

zeral008 · Answer

I would say not to worry about that and be confident with your appearance.. if he is not interested because of your looks then he probably isn't worth the effort..

GingerGuy · Answer

It's not all about looks, personality plays a part to. I just read a question on here from a girl that thinks she's fat and wonders why her physically "perfect" boyfriend is with her. So, no not necessarily.

Barrabus_the_Free · Answer

EVERY man wants a fit girl. Only a simple settled for fat chicks. But they'd rather have a fit chick I too, if they thought I they could get one. And "curvy" is a euphemism for FAT.

I need a girl to live with her in love and happness ♥

Anonymous · Answer

I am very fit thanks to putting in a lot of research and effort into my fitness and nutrition.

I want to be with someone who is somewhat fit+ or "normal and healthy" at the very least.

Being like minded generates respect, motivation, attraction, and ability to do things together. If those are lacking there isn't much left in the relationship.

Anonymous · Answer

The girl in the pic is way too slender for me. I'm 190lbs and under 10% body fat. I'd rather have some thick, built legs and ass, and a lightly muscled upper body. MandyCfit and Nicole_Mejia on Instagram are built perfectly

Sucker1990 · Answer

I would guess to a certain extent yes. I'm not particularly jacked, but most people need some level of lifestyle compatibility, jacked or not. Maintaining a body requires a lot of time in the gym and a strict diet.

Having a fit partner means you can spend that time together. I wouldn't want my partner to feel alone when I'm at the gym, or limit her options when it comes to dining out.

Cody01 · Answer

Doesn't matter as long as they're attractive to me & not overweight or very thin.

I'm not super for but I would like a boyfriend who would work out with me. Doesn't matter if they're in better or worse shape than me. If I'm with someone who doesn't work out I find myself eating worse and skipping on workouts

winterfox10 · Answer

Curvy and a little plump is sexy no matter how fit the guy is! The big thing is whether or not she can keep up with him daily life.
