For me it's a sign of being an alpha male and everything that comes along with it. You can get woman without muscles, shit some of my out of shape friends pull harder than I do. Pussy is pussy but when you get another male jealous, when you're the shredded badass that is one cool feeling... Run the pack, be the alpha, be a leader. Not just in bodybuilding but in life. That's what makes success in my opinion and is so attractive about being muscular and strong in the gym.

The better I look the better I feel. Wife likes it.
The increased strength makes it easier to rip someone's face off should the need arise. So basically selfish reasons.

At first was just to trim down and lose some gut fat.
Then many years into it I did see change. Learned along the way.
Never to get chics, (I have one of those) never to be Giant or anything like that.
Now it is to maintain to keep you with the grand child.

I just want to be crazy strong lol
I've always been obsessed with comic book characters like hulk and venom, I think thats why I've always wanted to be strong.

I do it to push myself to be just s little bit better than the day before. I never did it for women(it's all in the face/ personality anyway) or anyone else. Just be you and push on!

I've always been agressive but in a lot of ways that was kind of a front... a lot of you know what I mean by that... when u hang with alpha males you wanna fit in.... but running gear makes you a fucking alpha male with a Capitol A... maybe it's just a head game but I look better , feel better , fuck better , and walk just a little bit taller ...

You were already that guy before you worked out, you just didn't know it yet.

The confidence and aura you have when you know your the best looking dude to walk into a room, restaraunt, wedding function, whatever
In short, to give substance to my ego

Knowing being strong and getting stronger, urge to evolve myself.

Funny, I have to agree here. It's a real ego boost when dudes make comments like the last one I heard on New Year's Eve, "what do you do for a living? Cuz your arms are huge". You don't have to be real large to impress women, and I'm married so not trying to change that, but when guys comment you know you are doing it right. When guys look at you and wish they looked like you, you are the man!

It's refreshing to see the real reasons behind a lot of lifters.
Mine is no different, purely selfish, wanting to look good for me. It would be nice to look in the mirror and be happy with every aspect of my body.

The usual surface level bullshit, even down to the working environment, if people see you healthy, muscular and confident, it makes you appealing both sexually and professionally, in turn giving you more opportunities in life generally.
Lifting is life, I am just gutted that I didn't find a love for it sooner.

I never feel better than when I'm lifting. Opens up the airways, blood is flowing, I feel alive.
I want to look good.
Also I grew up skinny and developed a complex from people telling me so.

I'm the same way. I feel best when in a "zone" working out and immediately after.
I too was small (still am compared to many here) and have a "small" complex.
Both of my gf's and anyone I know tell me I look great and can't understand why I'm always trying to get bigger. I tell them I see a skinny guy when I look in the mirror. It does border on obsession although I'm getting a little better at realizing I'm not going to ever beat Phil Heath lol.
Wanting to stay fit as not getting any younger and I was once quite fat.
Real skinny people get picked on just as much as the fat ones. I was a real fat kid and always picked on in school and good food was my comfort.

I started because its constantly forcing me to grow mentally and physically. No growth equals stagnation, stagnation equals death.
I had a bad booze and drug problem for years. The gym is the only way I can keep clean.i constantly looked in the mirror with disgust and self loathing.
Some people go to meetings, some go to church, I pray at the iron altar to keep my shit straight. Might as well put those addictive tendencies to a positive use.
