"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

"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.

I do. Not for bulking, but I had a picture taken last april (before exercising), then again in september (after biking about three times a week and pushups/pullups). So that's about what . . . 6 months maybe? It wasn't a HUGE change since I didn't diet correctly nor did I use weights, solely calisthenics and cardio, but you can definitely tell that it made a difference.
Tell me how to put them up here and I will.

Shakes.

Master Don Juan
Try not to rely on shakes too much though.
Tuna, salmon, steak, chicken, turkey, pasta, eggs, milk etc are all good sources of protein.
after about 2 weeks youll be used to eating 6 meals a day. trust me.
Im changing my routine tomorrow as ive been on the same one for 6 months, thats why i stopped growing after 3 months. dont make that mistake.

Why are you changing? Does your body adapt to the old routine and stop growing?
I start up again tommorrow .... will buy myself a new track suit as the old one is nackered and start with a 15 minute runn, then do weights ... luckerly I have have a bench. Use it last year but was doing way too much aerobic exerise. This year I will cutt for about a month (15 min run, weights, low fat foods) just to loose the little tyre and then start bulking (no run, weights, high protien foods)

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Here we go.

And lastly, me about three weeks ago (which will be the bext "before" picture as I get back into working out for THIS summer)

your body never stops growing when you're doing heavy compound exercises with increasing weight. the only thing is that your progress will be slower with time and finally you will reach your natural limit. but if your work out routine isn't the best then feel free to change =]
sfalexi: looking good, how is your diet like?? man in such short time such a body, makes me jealous. only thing that seems to lack is your back. good luck on the lifting for summertime
