"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 want to get into boxing but I don't know where to begin. Any tips for a beginner wanting to assult the heavy bag and start sparring in the ring.

Step 1: Find a boxing gym in your area.

Step 2: Verify that the boxing gym you find is not a rip-off or scam, and that it offers lessons.

Step 3: Pay for gym membership/lessons.

Step 4: Show up to gym/lessons on a regular basis.

Boxing is an art that doesn't require advanced techniques, but requires intense training. So if you are cheap you can take a month or two of boxing classes, learn all the strikes, the leapoard stance, the weaving; then quit and just train on your own once you know the right way to punch.
