"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.

Cardio question

I read in a couple places that doing cardio after a weights session helps to burn fat because the weights use up all your glycogen so the cardio goes straight to burning fat. Is this true and would doing so harm muscle gains in the weight room?
 

"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.

apparently all cardio harms weight gain. In regards to the cardio after weights, if you must do the cardio i believe it is the best time to actually do the cardio. Other then that there are a few threads out there outlying the pro's and con's of doing light cardio in the morning.

Light cardio fasted in the morning is the best for fat loss while retaining muscle.
Light cardio after weights is good also just not so much.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

So early morning or post workout cardio would both allow for losing fat but also continuing to get stronger? How long should a session be?

Example:

-45 minutes on a treadmill, fast walk(4-5), at a 5.0% incline.

-30 minutes on an eliptical, moderate pace, moderate intensity

-30 minutes on a rowing machine, moderate pace, light intensity

-45 minute bike ride

If you're up above 30 minutes, keep the intensity low(no sprints, no running).

oh sh!t. okay before warboss hunts me down and kills me let me just clarify something, what i meant to say was the common belief is that cardio 'may possibly' harm weight gain, however it is possible to burn fat and gain muscle at the same time. It's just slower.

I think low intensity cardio doesn't affect muscle gain.
 

"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.
