Arnold Schwarzenegger once said that your physical appearance is the ultimate status symbol. It’s something you have to work hard to maintain, and being athletic or having a nice body isn’t something you can, borrow, or steal. It’s the result of hard work, discipline, and living with intention. With that in mind, today’s article shares three tactics to make yourself better looking.
If you follow these three steps, especially the first one, you will become noticeably better looking in a matter of months. And once this happens, you’ll be basking in compliments.
Get In Noticeably Good Shape (The Most Effective Way To Become Better Looking)
Post-pandemic, most guys are fat. If you’re overweight, you’re playing life on “hard” mode.
Get some home workout gear and exercise for at least 30 minutes every day. If you think you’re too busy for this, break your routine up. I was traveling a few weeks ago. During this time, I did bodyweight for 10 minutes in the morning, 10 minutes in the evening, and 10 minutes at night.
A mediocre workout is infinitely better than sitting on your ass all day, getting fatter.
Take a couple bucks and invest in an ab wheel, like this one:
And a set of resistance bands, like these:
If you exercise for 30 minutes every day, you’ll become infinitely better looking over the course of a single year. This alone will boost your self-confidence and get you more compliments than owning a sports car or wearing designer clothes.
Buy Timeless Clothes That Fit
A lot of guys buy expensive clothes that are “trendy.” I cringe when looking back on some of the outfits I’ve bought.
Skip the hot new street wear brand or $200 designer t-shirt and invest in quality, timeless clothes. Versatile outfits that fit properly are going to look better, and be stylish for longer, than whatever is fashionable at this exact moment.
You can spend $100 on a Kenzo graphic logo t-shirt that’s really only wearable in ultra-casual environments. Or you can pay a fraction of this price and get a whole pack of quality, form-fitting v-necks that showcase your physique.
Those v-necks can be worn in a lot of situations and you can use accessories to dress them up into an outfit that’s simple but sophisticated.
Invest In Accessories That Compliment Your Style
Quality accessories are a great way to add personality and style to your look. Gucci or Ray-Ban sunglasses cost about $100 – $200, but they instantly make casual outfits more distinct.
A black v-neck, jeans, and Gucci Aviator’s, is simple but stylish.
Same goes for watches. A nice, used, Cartier or Tudor costs less than $2,500. And your watch will last a lifetime while adding a subtle elegance to your look.
Lastly, I want to mention a very simple and cost-effective way to become better looking. And that’s to enhance your smell.
Wearing a high-quality, compliment pulling cologne is one of the best ways to get noticed. Women notice this, and they will give you attention if you smell nice.
Throw on a nice fragrance and get on a train or walk around the mall. You’ll get compliments.
Two good colognes that women love are:
Bvlgari Aqua, which is a great warm weather scent and perfect for spring or summer.
And Bentley Intense, which is fantastic for cooler seasons like fall and winter.
Becoming better looking is easy. Workout, wear quality clothes, and accessorize your style. Once you do this, you’ll be way ahead of the pack and most women will view you as “Handsome” or “Attractive.”
