"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.

The gym I use for weight training is at school, and I have about 3 weeks Christmas break. So that's three weeks with no gym. All I can do is run. How much muscle mass/strength will I lose in three weeks of abject laziness?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

In my 05 Impreza STi
initially you may lose a little strength but your body will adapt and start growing again. I recommend you do some calisthenics along with the running. just keep eating well and your body will take care of itself

If you keep up with your diet and dont do too much running you should be ok. You will lose a little strength and muscle, but it shouldnt be significant.

I would however look into cost and availability of other gyms. Even if its just one or two workouts in the middle of the 3 week break just too keep up your gains.

I didn't work out for more than 2 weeks now, and I was sick for 4 days, ate maybe 500 calories one day.

Mass decreased slightly, nothing to worry about.

Do some exercises without equipment, like a good set of pushups every week.

In the case you lose a few grams of muscle mass muscle memory will restore those grams within a couple of weeks, provided you work out and eat enough protein.

Hey guys, do you think that gaining 6.6 lb in 2 months of workout is a good thing? or is it under the "normal"?
