Video production is hard. Building an audience might take dedication and love. If you're looking for quick pussy, try pickup.
That said, think about three things...
1) What do you love doing/making/shooting? If you're gonna be churning videos out and dedicating time to this, the process has to be fun.
2) What value do you have to give? What is your audience interested in seeing? If your target audience is women 18-24, they're probably not looking for sick deadlift advice, and there are a lot of ripped guys on the internet. A few good videos might be good to post on your facebook/OKC, but they might not be the kind of thing tons of girls forward to each other - unless you anger/troll them by talking about how you love girls with eating disorders.
3) What will make this spread? How will people discover this channel? Notice the headlines top youtubers have. Look at the headlines on ROT. Look what friends of yours are forwarding and reposting. Lots of clickbait. Lots of headlines with questions and hooks that you want to find out the ending of - "you won't believe what happens next!" Consider reading "Trust Me, I'm Lying" by Ryan Holiday for more on this.
If you were going to do lifting videos targeted at women, consider adding an element that'll make them forward this to their friends. Create a persona or character, even if it's just an exaggerated version of yourself. You could go over the top what girls want (think the Ryan Gosling "Hey Girl" meme) or troll with red pill advice and things that will generate anger.
Look at the top youtube lifters - the Hodge Twins are hilarious, and have a really unique persona. Elliot Hulse adds tons of value and good advice in his posts. Find your voice. Good luck.

If you are doing it solely to "build local fame" and meet girls, don't do it.
You will get a better return on your time if you just drink cocktails and smoke cigarettes at a dope bar 3 nights per week.

Sounds like a lot of work for little payout. I hope you're still in high school or just really young if you think getting groupies is that easy.
Musicians spend years honing their craft before they get groupies. Any expert does.
How many hours you going to spend on YouTube videos that you don't want to otherwise do just to hope some girl sees you and chooses you?
You going to fly our a girl from Zanesville, Ohio to wherever you live to bang you?
If you wanna do a fitness channel, by all means follow your passion.
But if you're going to spend thousands of hours (those successful youtube guys spend 3-5 hours a day on their channels) just to hope some girl sees you and then decides to make a move….
Calling beta on that.
Go be a man and seek out women instead of passively sitting around like a coward hoping they will come to you.

Damn i didnt see this coming.
Yeah you guys are right, i guess i shouldnt have used the word "groupie".
Im not really counting on girls to send me nude pics or stuff like that, like i said just small fame. If i can get a "hey arent you that guy that lifts weights" i will be more than happy.
I dont know if some of you guys know the channel clarence0, all the guy does is lift weights, he doesnt comment, doesnt give speeches just puts up his training out there.
Im at the gym a lot, and i was all alone today for most of the morning so i thought that this could be a good idea.
Maybe i will still do this as a personal project.... thanks anyway guys.

^ If you want to do a channel, yes, you should do one.
If your motivation is to meet girls, there are more efficient uses of your time.
That's all we were saying.

I think to get groupies, prank channels are the way to go.
Would not be surprised if Vitaly had groupies...gets viewership in the millions, girls must be watching his channel too.
Even other internet pranksters get plenty of viewership from both genders.
