"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

In the morning is the best time to go to the gym.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Getting instruction at the gym will be a huge help to me.

When is a good time and day to go to the gym so that it's quiet so I can get the help I need?
If it's anything like my gym, you'll have to make an appointment with the instructor for when you want the appraisal because sometimes they get too busy. Maybe you should ring them up first, or just pop in to the gym and make an appointment.

There is way too much info and options out there and every ass hole thinks he knows best.

Just go to the gym learn how to do all the lifts and don't worry about all the combinations to start.

But do record your weights and reps, so few people do. Not sure how they ever know if they are progressing.

I get the impression that they have no idea what they're doing.

One of my ex's brothers was HUGE when I met him. A couple of months later he was really thin. He had no idea what had happened. From reading this forum I can tell he started doing too many reps and not enough weight, so he burnt off all that mass.

I should get a day off work in the week sometime soon. I'll drop in then and see if I can book an appointment.

If you can afford it, I would suggest getting yourself a licensed personal trainer for awhile. Most gyms have a few on staff. This person can show you how to use the weights/machines properly and can even show you the right foods to eat. Also having someone like this can be very motivating. Good luck!
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

One question out of curiosity:

Are you black?

No offense meant if any taken. To anyone.

this is the farthest thing from the truth. look through the picture index.. there are hundreds of people who know there sht(unlike here uhum heizen)..bodybuilding isn't rocket science
