I am currently gymmaxxing. But I want to ask which gives better results in cold approach? Gymmaxxing or fashionmaxxing? Don't say both because my gymmaxxing still going on. Fashionmaxxing will only take a day or two.

God this "maxxing" stuff is cringe. Can we just call it "staying in shape and being fashionable"?

Yes they're both important. But far more important is that you are going out there and making approaches, getting in the reps. If that's not your main focus, then this stuff is just procrastination.

You really think you can become fashionable in two days??? Oh boy.

Fashion is not super deep but you’re seriously underestimating it.
Yeah. It took me probably 2 years to get to where I’m at right now. There will be lots of experimenting and failures along the way

Tbf you can hire someone to improve your fashion in a weekend

Can't do the same with your body. Real change there will always take longer

This ^^
Whatever you are maxxing, don’t wait until you’re there to prioritize approaching.
Approaching is more important.

Guys tbh... I do think we need to have a more open mind when it comes to the looksmaxxing stuff

OP is already approaching

He even has a journal and has posted field reports. So it's not like he isn't talking to girls already

Not everyone that asks questions about looks is "procrastinating". Sometimes putting energy there can make things a lot easier for the seducer

Not sure why people here have been so anti-looks lately

Not anti-looks (I literally just wrote a rant about how Spike was right about this stuff in my LR yesterday). But the way he framed the question was dumb.

Asking "what are some things I can do to improve my appearance" or something more specific would be productive, and would have gotten some good practical answers.

Asking whether gym or fashion is more important is the sort of thing someone asks when they're procrastinating on both fronts.

The OP question is valid. Guys, we have to remember that we are a VERY tiny majority of men out there. Guys on SS are starting to suffer from the curse of knowledge: we know a lot so we think most guys should just get it

You have to remember what is out there. What the algorithm pushes. Because this shapes what people see. Looksmaxxing & fashionmaxxing is everywhere... and young guy tapped into red pill or getting girls has heard it. For most guys red pill stuff and the likes is their first entry point. And to them, words like looksmaxxxing & fashionmaxxing is normal. No matter how cringe it sounds to us, it's totally normal to them.


At the end of the day... we should give benefit of the doubt at first rather than unnecessary hostility

Lastly, contrary to what you wrote... people who ask these questions are not procrastinators.

From what I've seen, most have hit the gym but have soon realized ... working out your body takes time & discipline... To them, does that mean they'll have to wait that long before experiencing the benefits of looks...

So they want to try out fashion... you can improve that In a weekend or week with the right hire or guidance (which involves spending money)

Which brings up the question: do both forms of maxxing give similar results? If yes, then they can just spend that money and get the benefits, get laid while still hitting the gym (maybe they won't bother with gym again lol)


In summary, it is more of a laziness to hit the gym consistently than a procrastination to seduce (most of the time they are actually infield)

Do both. I know that’s not the answer you want to hear, but it’s the best answer. Which is “better” depends how out of shape you are and how badly you dress. Are you extremely fat? Then getting in shape would probably be more beneficial. Do you dress like Steve Urkle but aren’t fat? Then dressing better will probably be better. Pretty straightforward solution if you ask me
