"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.

Sup guys.

I went on Spring break, then had hell week for a show (for anyone not in the performing arts, it means you're practicing 9-10 hours a day on top of class and work). Lifting has pretty impossible for the past two weeks, then.

I'm about to dive back into it. I haven't been in this situation before, so is there anything I should watch out for? Any injury risks from starting at my previous weight level? More warm-up?

Thanks
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

First week do 80-90% of what you normally would. Shouldn't be heavy.
Second week do 90-95% of what you normally would. Should be semi-challenging.

Week three try to set PR's. Challenging.

Make sure you are warming up as outlined in the Iron Addict warm up post.

I can't get on the IA forums at the moment though.
