The only people who could possibly disagree that having a well built body makes picking up chicks much more easy are the same people who think that looks don't really matter. Looks matter very much over any accessory or other useless apparel you may wear. Stating that looks are of low importance (some claim under 10%) is utter nonsense.
I myself workout and I can confirm that girls really appreciate a well built guy. It's very easy to look at the situation: we enjoy girls with sexy bodies, girls enjoy men with sexy bodies. Althought I agree that game is very important, more important than looks, it is ridiculous to see people stating that looks are barely important. Those posts seem to be targetted at insecure people who want to be reassured by veterans of the game in order to have hope. Instead, in my opinion, they should just start fixing whatever they can about themselves to look better. Fat? Jog/Diet. Skinny? Build muscle. You can improve everything about yourself, of that you can be sure.
You can get surprising results in 1-2 months if you are perseverant and strict with your regime. Discipline is needed to keep it up without quitting, but remember that you are doing this for yourself, not for others, and you will feel much better when you start seeing results, you will gain confidence among other things.
I believe I've already seen the link somewhere, but for those who still haven't been there, I would suggest you visit:

It's a very good website which loads of useful help on getting in shape. I've used it and it has greatly helped me, so give it a try.
I recommend that everyone starts working out not only for looks, but more so for good health, which is the reason I started in the first place. Getting girls is just a bonus to the benefits that having a healthy body adds to your life.
Note: My post is more of a rant on the "looks don't matter stance" but I hope I helped a few guys with it.
