"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.

I was wondering if you can give some info on which is the correct way of taking creatine. How many amounts, how many water should i drink,etc. The same for protein, when and how to take, best time of the day, etc.


One more question, i have a month of vacation from the gym, in this month will i lose muscular mass, will it decrease my muscular growth?

Thanks

"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.

the loading stage for creatine is 5days taken 4 times a day then 2 times a day for the remain cycle (4 weeks)

you should have a minimum of 1g of protein per lb of bodyweight

in the first two weeks depending on your diet and how much you have been training then you will be in "strategic deconditioning mode" after 2 weeks your muscle will begin to atrophy (lose size) but fear not because you're muscle memory will soon get you back on track once you start hitting the weights again

I didn't read your whole post... but I doubt that taking creatine will give you the ability to stop trains.

That's getting a bit ridiculous don't you think!

True...

But after using creatine, I am faster than a speeding bullet...
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I agree with Wings advice...and also since creatine holds water...you will benifit more (see better results) from drinking lots of water....about 1-1.5 gallons a day....get used to drinking lots of water...wether you are on creatine or not...
