"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 havent eaten carbs since 7pm. I just did 40 mins of cardio and now am planning on eating and going to bed within an hour.

Do I eat protein + fat as a pre bed meal and call it a day or do I eat carbs as well to make up for depletion?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Might of come in here to late but for future reference stick to a protein/fat meal before bed. Carbs before bed aren't good unless your do a lifting workout before bed then you'll have to have carbs.

Dude I've been on Alex's slow cutting program...and I think I am overeating or something... my arms look like they are losing fat but the stomach keeps growing (the fat on the stomach).. my carbs are apples, oranges, may be a little bread and (juice post workout) so Im wondering if 1.5g/1lb protein is too much or something... may be I am not pushing myself hard enough at the gym.. what gives?
