"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.

Yes... I know that if I want to bulk up properly I need to go to the gym and lift weights.. I was lifting with a bench I had in my flat, but then my flatmate (who's bench it was) moved out, I'm moving in a months time to a new town so its not worth me joining a gym untill I move, (I will once I'm moved though),

anyway.. I want to try and keep up the exercise so my muscle doesn't start to drop off, so are there any good no equipment regimes anyone can recommend (I have nothing.. not even dumbells) at the moment I've just been doing press ups and sit ups every other day..
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Pullups, dips, pushups, atomic situps, mountain climbers... there are tons of things you can do.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

dips and curls

you can improvise for your chest, tricepts, lats by doing dips. do them between two chairs and to add weight from week to week as u do them you can where a backpack and add things to it for wieght such as cans of food or things for weight or you could tie something to you for additional weight. for you bicepts do curls. just curl your backpack with items in it for wieght. you even just put jugs in it like empty milk jugs filled with water or stones or sand. just improvise and remember the key is to keep gradually adding more wieght. when u can't do more weight then take an extra day off untill you can handle more weight again. and maintain adequate nutrition through it all with ample protein and good fats for the necessary fatty acids.

continued delts and traps

you can also do presses for your delts and traps with the back pack loaded too although then u'll probably do it one arm at a time sorta like having a single dumbell but be creative and improvise untill you can afford more luxurious or standardized equipment.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

that mcguyver routine looks good, mostly exercises I know how to do and have the space for..

questions though, what does the tempo thing, eg. 301 tempo, 501 tempo, 331 tempo, that it talks about in the exercises??
Obvioulsly its the tempo to do the reps at, but how to interpret it???

Also how do I structure the routine.. do all the A exercises on one day, a day off then the B exercises and so on till I get back to A again, or am I misunderstanding this?? I don't know much about how these routines work..

Nice Guy: Go to the www.t-mag.com main page and look at the FAQ section for the rep tempo. It's all explained there. I have only skimmed that routine so far, presumably you do it as is suggested.
