"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.

Just wondering if its a gud idea to train both back and legs on the same day or would that be too much for one day.

Cheers for any advice
 

"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.

Why would you make up your own training program when you could get one written by a professional. Don't write your own programs unless you've had years of successful experience.

Depends, if you can't train many sessions it can work but ideally it's better to train them seperate IMO to put all you've got into both.

I would avoid doing deadlifts and squats on the same day, since they can both fatigue the lower back and create a potential for injury. I set aside a whole day just for legs and it has worked out pretty well.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

From personal experience, it's too much.

Sure if you're doing some light endurance/conditioning back & leg training it's fine, but if you're lifting heavy, then... just no.

At the end of a good Legs day, I can barely walk afterwards, doing another heavy and intense workout is OUT OF THE QUESTION.

But, its up to you. Try it and see how you feel, just remember to keep the intensity high.

bad idea.....unless it's part of a program like rippetoe. if you're asking basic questions like this, though i suggest you get on a program like rippetoe or the other starter programs suggested here.

You can do it if it works for you.
It is probably going to be an individualistic thing. I read powerliftinguk and see AndyBolton and the guys he trains with doing squats+deads on the same day. And his training group ranges from intermediate to elite. He is the deadlift record holder and was the squat holder until recently. I also see him recommending it on his forum.

I have recently being doing it myself. If you want to try squats+deads, then put the squats first and use a low rep range. I have been doing front squats 3x3 followed by rack deads 1x3, 1x10. PR'ed on them both yesterday. I would never do a 1x20 on squats and then deads though, bad idea.
