Which book or text could i use as a suitable reference for getting shredded, not just exercises but nutrition as well?
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"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.
I found these most helpful:

"Bigger Leaner Stronger"
Best all around no nonsense all inclusive book I've found. No BS. Not too long. Covers diet, exercise, supplements. All science backed. Nothing fancy. All you need.

Barbell Medicine and Stronger by Science are both groups that have information guided by science (they're doctors).
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Nothing written by an admitted steroid abuser is credible unless you’re willing to go down that path.
I recommend starting strength by Mark Rippletoe

I was looking at the description of this book on Amazon. There were some notes on different factors that lowered testosterone. One of them was moderate consumption of alcohol.
I had heard that before. But I had recently watched Stone Cold Steve Austin interviewing the Undertaker (pro wrestlers, for those who don't know). During the interview, Austin brings out a bottle of Jack Daniels, and they do shots while they're reminiscing. I was thinking about alcohol lowering testosterone levels, but I don't think there are a lot of men more manly than these two guys, and they clearly like to drink. I was wondering how that works.

It works because of anabolic steroids.
