"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I've been considering picking this up. I recently bought a BOB opponent and I want to kick his ass on the regular. The reviews on Amazon seem good. Do any of you have it? Do you recommend it?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I was looking on my computer just now. I think I had it and deleted it. From what I remember, it was just him calling out punch combinations, numbered 1 to 4. The last ten seconds or so of the round you go all out. It's basic stuff, but it's part of normal training. In a gym, you'd have an instructor calling out the combinations. There may be more than that to the dvd; I don't know.

Get a round timer if you don't have one. You can program whatever round length and rest length you want. And make sure you're using 16 oz gloves. Keep your hands up by your eyebrows. They'll drop as you tire.

Been doing this since last 2 years and I actually love it. It takes time to remember the combinations and learn all the moves but once you are done watching the videos you can play the audio files where he calls the number of every punch combo and you have to either shadow box using it or you can punch a punching bag.


I recommend it. Its a nice workout plus you get to learn a few new kick boxing moves.
