Women Say THESE Muscle Make Men Look Jacked! (How to Build Them)

If you want to look jacked and be more attractive to women, then you’ve come to the right place. In this video, I am going to show you the only 8 muscles you need to train in order to look more muscular and increase your attractiveness. Not only that, but I am going to give you two of the best exercises for each muscle so that you know exactly what you should be doing in the gym.

First up in this guide on how to look more jacked, we have the traps. This muscle, when trained properly, will give the appearance of a thicker neck and more masculinity, something women find attractive. Two exercises you can use to target this muscle to make it grow is a trap pull and a modified meadows row. When it comes to the trap pull, use a rope attached to a low-anchored pulley and use the same grip you would on a face pull. From here, shrug your traps and then pull the rope towards your neck. To perform the modified meadows row, you will need a landmine setup. Instead of simply rowing the weight like you normally would for the lats, you will again want to shrug the weight up before rowing. Similar mechanics between both exercises but both will deliver the big traps you are looking for.

Next, we need to target the shoulders; more specifically, the middle delts. This gives the appearance of broader shoulders and not only that, but road, well-defined shoulders have always been considered a sign of strength and masculinity; plus, men with a higher shoulder-to-hip ratio reported having sex at an early age and with more sexual partners, according to David Perett’s book In Your Face: The New Science of Human Attraction.

The two exercises I recommend for hitting those middle delts are hip huggers and a lateral raise drop set. For the hip huggers, not only will you be targeting the middle deltoids, but the rear delts as well (a muscle that often times doesn’t get enough attention, but will make your shoulders stand at greater attention). Imagine pulling your pants up by the waistband – that’s the motion you will be doing with dumbbells in your hand. The lateral raise drop set consists of a cheat lateral raise done to failure followed by 1.5 rep strict lateral raises. The most important thing to remember about the cheat lateral is that you need to do your best at controlling the eccentric portion of the lift.

Moving down the body, we have to look at the upper chest. As mentioned in Perett’s book, In Your Face: The New Science of Human Attraction; women prefer a man to be toned, but not brawny and bulked out to the max. You want a solid chest; not man boobs or muscle boobs that rival their own, just chiseled pecs.

The best way to give this appearance is by targeting the upper chest as will create the look you are going for, especially when you are wearing well-fitting clothes. So how do we do that? With two exercises: the thumbs-up incline bench press and a modified cable ucv raise. The trick of the thumbs-up incline bench press is that by performing the bench press this way, you will get more adduction of the arms towards the midline of your chest, an important and often ignored function of the pecs. With the modified cable ucv raise, you will lay on your side on a bench and press the cable straight up in the air which will be across your chest (since you are on your side). This will get more of that adduction we are seeking.

We now have to address the v-taper. In a 2013 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, back broadness accounted for over 79 percent of the variability in a woman’s perceived attraction to a man. Having a wide V-shaped back even trumped a man’s height and endowment when it came to physical attractiveness.

To get that wide, v-shaped back, we need to effectively target the lats. To do that, we have the kneeling straight arm pushdown and the kneeling 1-arm pulldown. With the straight arm pushdown, you need to properly perform the exercise to remove triceps contribution. That means keeping your arms straight through the entire movement. The 1-arm pulldown requires you to try to put your elbow in your pocket for the greatest amount of contraction on the exercise.

To see the rest of the muscles you need to train to look more jacked and be more attractive to women, watch to the very end of the video as there is a caveat that will make all of this easier in the long run.
