"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.

I'm 10.5 stone, so according to this rule I have to eat 5 tins of tuna a day, baring in mind that there's no carbs in these tins I also have to eat carbs too...

"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.

Well, at your weight, 1.2g/lb would equate to around 180g of protein. However, you'll do better on 1.5-2.0g/lb of protein, to be honest. So you wanna be aiming for 230-300+g..try to get 300g. :)

I know this seems hard when you think about getting it all from tuna - tuna out of the tin takes a lot of energy to open, drain and then chew through...so get it from different sources..

- chicken
- beef
- protein shakes
- protein bars

etc...

Seriously, getting 250g of protein, which is basically a minimum for a guy of your weight, is not that difficult. Drink whey shakes with 50g of protein at a time, with a tablespoon of olive oil in to add fat and slow down digestion, chug down as a meal :)

Ground beef, beef mince..make chicken and beef (including mince) into curries, chilli con carne, season them and/or put sources on.

Make omelettes, they're awesome :) Get cottage cheese down you..

It's not that hard when you get to grips with it, really :)

In hell. I'm Satan's lover.
Haha TC when I started lifting I felt exactly the same way, how the hell are people getting so much protein. The thing is, you don't realize how much you're actually having until you moniter a couple days. Here are my fav sources:

- Whey protein >30 mins after workout (in Oatmeal and hot milk... thats a killer for protein right there!)
- Chicken of any kind, especially in a wrap
- Tuna as you
- Milk before bed (Casein takes a long time to digest compared to whey which works in perhaps half an hour, thus ideal for sleeping)
- Omlette with cheese (mmm!)
- Grilled cheese sandwitches

Always try to eat something if you're not totally stuffed. Penut butter is also excellent if you like that. Penut butter and milk is really good too.

Hope that helps a little!

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
