"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.

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.
 

"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.

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.
 

"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.

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.
