"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

This is something that interests me. The book Body For Life claims that it can deliver the results it does in only 12 weeks. Is this really possible? I mean, is bodybuilding really less complicated than we have made it out to be?
 

"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.

It's definitely a lot easier than most people make it seem. It's more about lifting smart and eating very well. Nutrition is like 80-90% of it.

I heard that it works good and while annoying I can't hate on Bill Philips. He does know his shyt. So yea I say give it a try.

Hope it helps u out. Peace

Yeah it really doesnt take much, if you know what you need to do. The biggest hurdle is getting people to actually go to the gym and do it, which is why 60% of that book is motivational.

I even gave away my copy to a friend who asked about it. I said "Here, keep it, its a great book for starting out" but never heard anything after that.

It's not that bodybuilding got easy, the point is that the hard part of it is persistence. Diet and exercise are the easy part, especially the exercise part.

About the program, it's VERY good. It is simple and effective. Give it a shot.
 

"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.

Okay, neato. I just have a problem with the nutrition bit... where does one learn exactly what food has how much of what? Sure, the book gives you a list - but that's pretty small.

I could go to the library and rent a book nutriton, if that's the answer?

BFL does not uses calculations. It is simpler than that: portions.

It's a very simple program, for those wanting something they can start doing quickly, with good results and without too much planning (that does not mean you do not have to work out, lol). EVERYONE can include it on their schedule.
