We will democratize being an 'Apex Predator'
And the current 'Apex Predators' are gonna hate it
These younger Looksmaxxers that are doing Reviv sometimes ask me more philosophical questions.
And one that was asked to me recently was whether I thought these biomechanics were going to democratize being an ‘Apex Predator’.
Which in their lingo sort of means that you’re at the top of the food chain in terms of your looks, your hormones, your swagger, etc.
You’re the one that sort of effortlessly stands out among your peers and operates at a level above them.
Before we used to think that this was some special mix of genetics and upbringing.
But in time… I think we’re going to understand that it was simply 99% biomechanics and perhaps 1% the other shit.
Being an ‘Apex Predator’
First let’s define a bit more what an apex predator is. And the way I like to think about it is to think about the popular GenZ meme, “Giga Chad”
Giga Chad sort of epitomizes the whole looksmaxxing movement. What the ‘ideal’ should look like.
A very chiseled, masculine figure that exudes confidence and attractiveness.
As you imagine what his life would be like… you start to imagine guys wanting to be his friend. Hot women wanting to be his side fling.
You imagine this deep, gravelly voice that people immediately tune into attentively.
Giga Chad walks through life almost effortlessly with people wanting to please him. Simply because he has that ‘something’ that makes others want to fall in line.
And that ‘something’ is not just the way he looks and sounds… it is also killer neurology. A bit like a young Tony Robbins who i’d written about earlier:
The current ‘Apex Predators’ enjoyed the good life looking down
When I think about two classics in Hollywood that sort of symbolize this idea, I think of Brad Pitt and George Clooney. Who also are long-time, good friends.
Wherever they go people flock to them.
Women fawn over them.
They never had to work had at it. It just sort of always happened for them.
Yeah maybe they hit the gym once in awhile… but did they need to work hard to have these looks that they always had?
No.
Throughout their 20’s, 30’s and 40’s they probably could have eaten what they wanted, barely done any exercise, and they still would have looked pretty much the way they did.
And the people around them that were busting their asses at the gym trying to have the same effect, just frustratingly never got there.
At some point they gave up and resigned themselves to the idea that perhaps they just weren’t meant to be ‘Apex Predators’.
Everyone with bad to mediocre biomechanics will have had to resign themselves to that at some point.
We are gonna democratize the ability to become an ‘Apex Predator’
In the years and decades to come I am pretty confident that we are going to democratize the ability to become one of these.
I’m not saying it’s going to be easy or fast… rather i’m saying that there will be a clear roadmap for how to get there.
Instead of the hoax that people believe in today… like going to the gym and dieting.
Rather if people put in the work… they can all get there. Regardless of their genetics, etc.
And it’s not going to matter how much they exercise or what they eat.
Rather it’s going to be some combination of wearing a mouthguard and doing stretches that accelerate the process. I call my set of stretches the ‘fast method’, but I’m sure this will even be improved upon to be faster in time.
And people in the thousands and eventually millions are going to close the gap till eventually they start to feel and enjoy what it is like to be one of these ‘Apex Predators’.
The current ‘Apex Predators’ are gonna hate it
As all these new people close the gap the existing ‘Apex Predators’ are gonna realize that their moat is drying up.
The easy ‘good life’ that they thought was their birthright is going to start slipping away… because lots of other people are gonna start to look and function like them.
And while they will smile and act as if they are happy for these newcomers… inside they are gonna be boiling.
It’s kinda like letting someone live the life of a billionaire for a decade and then taking all the money away.
Now instead of walking down the street with an air of superiority… they’re gonna see loads of others that look just as good as them.
Now when they walk into a bar and expect a string of guys to be working up the courage to approach them and buy them a drink… they’re gonna realize there are a whole bunch of other ladies that are just as hot as them.
And they’re not the spotlight of attention that they used to be.
We’ve commoditized what they have.
Closing thoughts
This will still seem like a pipedream for many of you.
As you are still in the healing phase of your journey.
But there’s already a handful of people doing Reviv who have gotten the hang of my ‘fast method’ and are starting to believe and ask questions around this concept.
And I think that number is going to grow quickly as time goes on.
They’ll be improving how they look & function each day a little bit and asking themselves… “when does it stop? If I get through all the plateaus will I get there?”
And the reality based on what I’ve seen play out the past decade or so is that they can. But it takes a lot of work and it takes a certain mindset. So not everyone is gonna make it.
But for those that just do not give up and approach problems like temporary bumps along the road… these are the ones that will become ‘students of the game’ as I like to say.
And eventually one day they will pull these current ‘Apex Predators’ down from their pedestals….. kicking and screaming.
Like a dictator who is about to be overthrown.
I'm curious about your body mass index and fat percentage.
