“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
Anyone else do 20 rep squats

"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.

Actually, I've decided that all good things must come to an end. Number one, my cardio is suffering and it needs to improve.
Number two, I'm growing less and less confident in my form, namely not rounding my back, and a post from a guy on tnation who pushed too hard, used his back too much, blew it out and couldn't squat for 6 months, scared me.
Number three, I'm growing out of my blues and my ABUs (Air Force fatigues) very quickly. Right now would be a bad time to spend hundreds of dollars on bigger uniforms, but I do not want to rip the ass out of my blues pants or pop a button on the chest of any of the shirts. And my waist has grown somewhat too, some being muscle but some fat. So I need to knock off some inches and put off the purchase of new uniforms (which, next time I do this routine, will be mandatory due to further muscle gain) as long as possible.
My new lifting routine will be chest, triceps, and shoulders and leg days, alternating with upper/middle back and biceps days. Reps between 15 and 20, sets 3 or so per part, centered on compound lifts. Leg days will all include 20 rep squats, but with dropped weight so I can work on my form.
First workout was today, chest tris shoulders and legs. All I remember the specifics of for today is the squat; 200 x 20, far far easier than when I did them earlier this month. Already ran today before this (run test). Meals will center around lean meat and vegetables. Dressing cut in half on salads, bread cut out. Let's make this $#1+ quick so I can go back to twenty reppers!
#1: have you been doing much cardio? I thought your running result was improving? I've been doing 2 cardio sessions a week, Tabata-style. It's only about 16 minutes of workout per sessions, but my cardio performance has been going steadily up.
Anyway, most of the 20 reppers programs I've seen say that you only do it for 6 weeks max in a row then switch to something else, and revisit it later on, in a few months time.
Come back to fight the beast later!
Personally, I was thinking of GVT after I do the 20 reps for 6-8 weeks, after I come back from holidays. I'll probably start a journal once I come back and see if I can get some feedback on how to plan my training from now on. I've been doing the same-ish thing since September and it's about time I give it a shake.
I'll be interested in knowing how your post-20-squatting works for you, keep up the good work and keep posting! Hows your diet these days by the way (other than eating like a lion)? Whatcha planning to do now to cut back?

RMM: I cut out bread, cut down the skim milk, cut out non-diet soda, cut out all fried foods or fatty meats or saucy creamy foods, with the exception of the rare controlled-cheat day. Meals will be centered around lean meat and vegetables now, with the exception of breakfast which will be a protein bar (all I have time for). Meals will still be big, just not quite AS big. Good idea with the gvt. I don't think I have the patience to do the 10 x 10, that is a tough routine
how did you do on your twenty reppers?"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Actually, I've had a different routine for a while that I want to break out of. What I've been doing is 3x10, but with supersets to mix in. So for Squats I'd do 1x10, immediately follow with 1x20 dumbbell lunges, rest, squat again 1x10, and so on. Benchpress used to be with dumbbells too, and after 10 switch to lighter ones and do... Whatever you call when you keep your arms straight and bring the dumbbells up in front of you while lying on the bench, rest, repeat. I swapped to the barbell when I started using the 25 kg dumbbells, took a while to get adjusted to it but working well.
It's good in the sense that it's worked to get my stamina up significantly, and drop a good chunk of the fat (I started to get abs definition after the last cutdown, but I'm up a bit again after the Christmas break, broke the workout for almost two weeks and it's been kinda all over the place since then). I've had some decent gains, but I was focusing more on getting a good foundation and dropping the excess first, rather than going all out and getting huge. That's gonna change after the hols, definitely going for the 20 reppers then!
Decided to go to 205 today, and still felt fairly strong finishing. It seems my grip/arms might give out before my legs. Will be trying 225 next time ( 4 plates total). That should be a pretty big step up from 205, but I really want to push through those last 5 reps.
First, here is the average diet that they recommend
1- Eggs cheeze and milk gotta go. I am lactose intolerant and only can have a little milk. Are there any ways to substitute this? Should I just stuck with some protien supp in water in place of milk.
2- 3 days per week seems like to little at the gym. Does throwing in other workouts hurt your gains? will cardio require more ingestion of calories?
I am 177 lbs now, and would like to ultimately be 190 but below my current bf ( I think I am between 12-15% but not sure). As I have said earlier, the goal is overall athletic performance and don't want to exceed 190 due to the fact it will slow me down.
Thanks in advance!
...got 225 for 20 reps today. The notion of wanting to quit at around # 13 entered my mind, and by 18 it was really a battle but I got through. The step ups will be a little more gradual now. Also want to look at form as my lower back felt a little uncomfortable.
tomorrow is a much needed rest day!

Plus you have to tilt forward at the bottom of the squat creating even more tension on the lower back.
"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.
The original 20 rep breathing squat program is 3 workouts a week, where you start of with your 10-12 rep max and add 2.5kg/5lb every workout for 6 weeks.synergy1 said:
You need to also drink up to 4lts/gallon of full cream milk a day, mainly because its an easy extra 2500+ calories on top of your eating, its a complete food with protein, carbs, fat and also your body will think it's on steroids due to the amount of hormones/igf-1 thats in milk plus the squats naturally release growth hormone.
This is one of the most toughest brutal workout routines physically and mentally, so only do it for 6 weeks, if you survive that long, then have a break and go back to something else.
If you ask me, from what you have posted above, this routine is not for you.
Try it before you knock it m8. The thing with squats is that you can "rest" when you are at the top. Imagine taking that weight you can do 10 reps with and then pushing out 20 by resting at the top. Squat 3 times a week doing one set and you'll come back here and say "omfg, insane increases!".camdry90 said:
Big grats to both metafortress and synergy. 235x20 and of course two plates for the first time.
With a diet consisting of pure milk daily, that aspect isn't for me. From the workout side of it, I plan on finishing the third week anyway. Its tough/brutal, but thats nothing new in my routines. There is always energy in the tank.JDiddy said:
Hammies were very sore from deadlifts & goodmornings on Sat, plus dancing too much over the weekends & Monday. Didn't think I could make it, and my legs were shaking a fair bit at the end, but it was easier than I thought. Didn't take long to recover.
I also tried 120kg (which was my 1RM at the start of Jan) and hit x5 with relative ease. Was tempted to try heavier but I'll save that for after I get to 100kg x20 - two more weeks!
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

This was actually the easiest one I've done. Not much leg shaking, I was stuffed at the end but it was the first time I didn't have to literally lie down. Just had to sit down & rest for 2-3 mins then onto the powerclean.
Next to me was this big dude quarter-squatting 90kg with b!tch-pad.
nice work guy. you an athlete? what sports did you play? just curious.Jitterbug said:95kg x20! Nailed that motherfvcker!
