"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

"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.

Thats about what I bench. What do you weigh, and how tall are you? I'm about 5'11" 160 lbs.

I'm 14, and I bench 145lbs for 8 reps, at 160lbs (11% bf). That' sme though, and I'm strong. Who really gives a **** how much you bench, other then yourself. Obviously this guy has something that he's proud of, so leave him alone, jeeze. I'm proud of what I bench, and so shoudl he.

So, congrads man. You'll be getting 220+ in no time if you keep at it :)
 

"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.

You guys shoudnt be haters. If you know what the weights weigh youd know that 155 is the bar plus 2 45 pound plates PLUS 2 10 pound weights and thats more than most guys can do at my high school.

hardrock1 I can do mre like almost 400 pounds when I try hard but Ive been working out for a long time now. Keep working hard bor and youll be benching big numbers like its your job or something.

Good work I think we shodnt put eachother down.

Rock on guy.

Whenever you can lift it 8 times you are ready to add another 10 pounds. Just keeping lifting, eating, and resting. You'll get there.

Can't show emotion through internet :(

Good Job!

I remember when I was in high school. It took me forever to bench my own body weight.

Don't laugh, at 16 I weighed 115 lbs !!!! (now I'm 5'6" and 160 lbs, 10% bf)
 

"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.

Good for you.. Keep at it and don't become discouraged by people blasting you. ANd dont' become discouraged, as most of us have, when at a point it seems like you've been stuck benching, curling, squating the same wieght, etc. Just spice up your workouts, take a week off or change some things.. Good luck.

And dont become one or listen to one of those guys who always brag about how much they can bench. You'll see many guys in the gym who come in, walk around, brag, talk, walk over to the flat bench, put on this incredible amount of weight, have their friend spot them, and lift the bar one or two times making all these grunting noises.

Then they walk around some more, talk some more, hang out at the juice bar, maybe come back do another few reps, then go home.

Many of us have done that when we were younger. Impressing people with our bench press. But in reality, get a strong workout in for yourself, dont' become one of those guys I mentioned above.
