This is a guest post by Luke Douglas of Ripped.me a workout and training site. In this article Luke talks about the requirements of men who wish to be true alpha males to get to the gym and workout. Enjoy.
An alpha male is not born, he is sculpted through adversity, through hardship and persistence. A true alpha is not just big on words, he is great in deeds as well. Moreover, he looks the part. If you want to be an alpha male, you not only need to speak and act like one, but you also need to look like a lion ready to defend his kingdom.
In the modern world, however, it’s easier to come across antelopes and gazelles rather than a single lion. Why is that? Perhaps it’s because you let dominant females push you around, or perhaps it’s because you don’t know how to stand up for yourself. Or is it because your appearance and lack of physical strength are dragging you through the mud? Either way, you need to toughen up. Here is why you, as a male worthy of becoming a lion, need to go to the gym in order to become the Alpha Male.
Build confidence and self-esteem
Confidence is not something you simply have, it’s a skill, and art form you learn through the years. Self-esteem is equally difficult to build, and frightfully easy to lose. It’s not just about walking around with your shoulder rolled back and your head held high, because if you don’t have it in your frame, in your mind, and in your eyes, people will be able to see right through you for what you really are – weak.
This is why the gym is your holy savior, as there is nothing that can build up your confidence and inspire you to love yourself the way you deserve like the man staring back at you in the mirror. Do you like what you see? If you love the reflection in the mirror, that positive energy you radiate will wash over everyone you meet, attracting them towards you, making the men want to be like you and the women want to touch you. Don’t miss the opportunity to truly learn how to love yourself by sculpting the body of your dreams.
Become a force to be reckoned with
Strength is never a weakness, remember that. No matter what you do, no matter how tall, short, shy or debonair you are, building strength is your one-way ticket to a happier life. Building lean muscle in the gym and increasing your strength will not only make you feel confident and dominant, but it will also ensure you have a long and healthy future ahead.
You do not only want to lift big at the gym, but observe the contraction, watch yourself in the mirror while you’re performing the exercise, and push the workout to its limits. Allow yourself the freedom of movement, as well as the freedom to see your muscles swell up by wearing revealing muscle tank tops for men along with a pair of snug shorts that emphasize your quads. Wearing the right clothes can have a profound impact on your performance and mindset. Not only will you look more intimidating to other males, but dominant females will suddenly become putty in your hands.
Up your testosterone levels
The hormone that makes us who we are. The hormone that puts the flame in our eyes and the courage in our hearts. The hormone that makes you a man worthy of any woman, any position, every crown. Testosterone is your way into the masculine world, the chemical that will set you apart from the rest of the male tribe and into the hungry eyes of the female herd.
Testosterone. You need more of it. Luckily, hitting the weights several times a week and emphasizing your lower body is one of the best natural ways to elevate testosterone levels, become an alpha, and safeguard your long-term health. Besides, women love nothing more than biting on a pair of meaty tree trunks, among other things located down south. So don’t skip leg day if you want to become an alpha.
Increase your cardio and stamina
You do know why stamina is important, right? It’s so your gun doesn’t go off unexpectedly. People go to the gym for a myriad of reasons, but you as an alpha male, you should be concerned about increasing your cardiovascular endurance so that you can feel confident enough to pull an all-nighter no matter how stressful the day was or how tired you feel.
So, in addition to hitting the weights, you should push your cardio limits regularly and throw in a mixed bag of pelvic floor exercises in order to boost your stamina and confidence. After an entire night of her screaming and calling for God Almighty, you will be a happier man, and a true alpha.
Becoming an alpha male is not just about dressing the right way or mastering the art of oration, it’s also about building mental fortitude and physical strength through lifting weights and reconnecting with your primal self at the gym. With these benefits in mind, go get yourself a gym membership and sculpt a body that will turn you into a real man.
