"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

the difference in your face is crazy when you have a thicker muscular neck with a low body fat chiseled face...plus you look so much better wearing fitted stylish clothes. The face looks way more masculine and rugged.

huge difference maker in stress relief also...feel so good when you're done
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

My neck is hella muscular and my face is super lean too. Very strong subtle features in me, especially because I’m getting slightly more hollow cheeks as I get older.

One of the things to get rid of a bloated face, or at least tone it down is to drink a lot of water and eat foods high in potassium (bananas, carrots, etc), since they get rid of sodium.

Science has not caught up with facial musculature. I know of only one double-blind study monitoring the results of facial exercises over 120 days.

Consistent facial exercise is significant, as it increases higher cheekbone volume, decreases lower-cheek buccal fat volume, tones the philtrum region, increases the width of the masseter muscles giving you a squarer and thicker jaw, tones the jawline structure, neck, and submental-fat region, augments the width and thickness of the chin, and overall, brings greater symmetry to the face.

Although some do facial exercises by virtue of squeezing their face during high-intensity compound movements, some do not.

One product that I found superior for facial exercise than exercising alone is the Jawzrsizer. Commit to 10 sets of 100 reps per day, and in 90 days you will see a marked improvement.

Also keep a clean diet with low-glycemic or low-inflammatory carbs (see Paleo diet) primarily and drink one-gallon of water day to minimize bloating and accentuate your facial aesthetics.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

do you think just flexing my neck and face will be enough?

Doesn't work with women under 30, apparently.
:p

I've always scoffed at the idea of facial exercises. Partly because at least with regular weight training, you gain strength. With facial exercises, it's purely aesthetic. I guess it makes sense that it could work though.

Do you not care about you look ... even for yourself? OR do you fall into the social construct of only "gay" men care about their appearance?

Here’s for all you dudes out there that want to see changes. I’m fairly certain the blond kid is actually a model so the ropes and tricks and techniques are legit for him:
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I never gave much thought to facial exercises, I was never convinced they would actually work. Like you said, there are few studies on them. I guess it kind of makes sense though.

With weight lifting, everyone always says "Lift for yourself, lift for good health, lift to get stronger, not to get women". You don't get that secondary (primary?) benefit with facial exercises, so I've never really thought about them.

I've only come to the realization lately that they do work.

Whenever I take leave from the gym, I see a significant difference in facial aesthetics even when I do cardio with low bf % and no weight training. As I have always lifted heavy in compounds (bench, deadlifts, squats), facial muscles were naturally worked ancillary to.

Ever notice, especially as you age, that if you have a lot of chest mass and take a leave from the gym, your chest sags like a woman's. Yes, bltch tits for a man outside of aromatization (estrogen) is flab. Now imagine the appeal of a flabby face to dimes.

Like you say though, a lot of these facial aesthetics are naturally the byproduct of low body fat and a good fitness level. So if that's the case, would the facial exercises really be necessary.

With regard to those videos, we've all heard about defined jawlines, but I've never heard before that "hollow cheeks" were desirable. I guess they go along with low body fat.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

For men, the fullness of the cheekbone should start from outside the under eye area and down to the middle nostril area. Below the middle nostril, the buccal fat region, this area ideally should be hollow as so:

Yes, facial exercises are a byproduct of an intense exercise regimen, but this is presuming your exercise routine is truly intense.

The reason why you lift is to get stronger and big muscles, right? It’s to mimic the alpha males from pre-technology eras. Well those males got their muscles via strain and stress. Think about what happens when you exert yourself very hard, what happens to your face and neck? Your face gets contorted from the effort and your neck is strained with veins bulging out. That is the neck and facial exercises several millennia ago. Very indirect, but there nonetheless. These exercises are just mimicking that in the same way the gym works bodily muscles.
