"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

which is the best, pre or post lifting. im doing it before, but i heard its better in the morning and after you do you lifting workout.
 

"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.

I think they're both bad. Basically you're depleting your glycogen levels for the activity you do second. If you want to get the best out of both workouts, leave 8 hrs in between so you can push yourself hard for both.

You can walk a bit after lifting but before you take in your protein shake otherwise the insulin spike will kill any fat loss.
 

"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.

I've always learned to do cardio on an empty stomach early in the day, and leave at least 4 - 5 hours till I lift later that day. Your body burns the most fat on an empty stomach.

You also don't want to do a large cardio session right after lifting when your muscles are craving much nutrients that they will not recieve. Worse come to worse, do cardio before lifting and sip on protein during it. Then go into your lifting session and make sure to consume protein thereafter.
