"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.

Wassup? I got a question regarding alcohol and weight lifting. Of course I did know alcohol had a negative side effect on your physique cause of its empty calories. In other words the more alcohol you drink the fatter you get, even if it doesnt mean you gonna get all fat or whateva. I thought it wasnt more detrimental than candy for example.

But I heared its very very bad if you wanna gain mass, not only because you might feel tired the next day if you were all drunk but also cause it lowers testosterone levels or something. Ive been gaining muscle for like 4 years or 5 ever since I started working out seriously and Im quite satisfied with the results, but I was wondering how much alcohol really affected muscle growth. Id say Ive always drunk like 1 to 2 times a week...earlier in life Id get pretty drunk and now I only drink like 4 beers if I go out. There were times when I drank a lot and whe nI hardly drank........I cant really tell how much it affected my muscle growth though cause I never even thought of that..I just cant remember...so can anyone tell me if its really that bad? Would it really play a role if I drank once or twice a week if I just get tipsy (around 4 beers, 6'3'' tall and not skinny)??How bad are the effects on muscle growth really?

Beer is my recovery drink of choice.

I'm sure it's not going to effect you that much. But, you are right, it has empty calories.

Just drink in moderation...

There's nothing like a beer after a work out.

Beer as a post workout drink, that's pretty funny. Alchohol increases your cortisol production and decreases testosterone production. The post workout time is one of the most critical phases for recovery, and if you want to maximize your gains then definitely don't drink alcohol within a few hours of a workout (optimally don't drink any, obviously).
 

"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.

you can be big, but often your alcoholic bodybuilders look soft, and their skin sucks. They always have a nice layer of fat around their pecs and tummy.

i'm sure that if someone was dedicated and determined enough to take up AS, and do all the necessary research, the thought of alcohol wouldn't even cross their mind.
