“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Very true.

The exception to this rule is when one is able to listen to his body, and recognise what the supplements are doing to him. If he knows how to use them to his advantage, then more power to him.
 

"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.

You're saying protein isn't important to bodybuilding? :rolleyes:

I'm 160lbs and I need 260 grams per day to grow.

There's just no other way.

The guideline is always X amount of protein per lbs of LEAN body mass. Though people enjoy thinking it's per lb., I believe they are wrong. I'm saying that your body wont be fully processing all that protein for a long time, so why waste it? You cant put a demand on your body to up protein consumption off that bat - and thats what a lot of people seem to do.

Most people here seem to start their new diet right away. Cut down all the high GI carbs, throw some low GI carbs in their system. They move from messed up high sugar diets that are low in protein, to a complex carb and very high protein diet. They change it over night. To efficently change your diet, you have to do it slowly.

I didnt make any sort of reference to the importance of protein. Ronnie Coleman in The Unbelieveable was consuming... *wracks brains* 200-220? That was enough for him. Anymore was a waste. He was close to 300lbs when he started cutting for Mr O. You think someone that's 155lbs, for example, should really be consuming almost the same amount of protein as a pro BB'er? I mean, lets put this into perspective, the difference is less than a can of high quality tuna.

My general message was **** the latest thing that'll do wonders for you. Are you planning to make a career out of it? Are you wanting to break some sort of record? Are you wanting to be one of those amazing guys that eats, sleeps and breathes BBing? Probably not. Some of you might want to be that way, but I'm sure many of you wont have what it takes to be close to pro. I know I dont. I know my limits.

This is something not many people around here realise. Screw the 40/40/20 for cutting, while you're taking whey, creatine and glutamine. Hows it going in the mirror there pal? Are you seeing a difference? Are you feeling the difference? How does your wallet feel about all of this stuff to 'enhance' your performance?

With a little extra time and good training, the only difference is the amount of time it takes to get there. It takes a bit longer than if you shelled out loads of cash for a few suppliments, but does that REALLY matter to you?

So I might as well clarify this for anyone picking posts apart. Yes, protein is important. Yes, you should have a lot of it. You can eat all you want - it doesnt concern me. It's not my body, and it's not my training. But if you cant listen to your body and study yourself to see if somethings working, theres a big problem. Why not experiment with ratio's of things? Why not try less protein, or more protein. Try less carbs, or more carbs. Play around with all the fats - just dont think that cause a website said 2g of protein per lb of bodyweight really is the answer for a newb to BBing.

Everything but the last paragraph was a pile of crap. What the hell are you trying to say? You keep contradicting yourself and pulling others down. I bet you're one of those that use the "genetic limit" excuse not to grow further.

Everyone has to start somewhere. Eventually you tailor your needs to your body when you get an understanding of what works and what doesn't.

How the hell are the newcomers going to know where to start if these guidelines are nonexistant or "useless"?

Those who tell you that your nutrition needs are the same as the next man's, have no appreciation of the scale of genetic individuality. Without such an appreciation, they have no understanding of the nutrition needs of anyone.
 

"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.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Well, I just finished my chest/shoulder workout and had the creatine with some cold water. It's not bad at all. Tastes like fruit punch. I was dead tired after the workout, but as I was drinking it, my muscles felt...Healed. Strange.

You're using something flavoured containing dextrose such as Phosphagen HP, correct? Pure creatine monohydrate is tasteless and odorless.

"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.

One last question...What's the point of half before a workout and half after a workout? What about a full size before and a full size after?

Seriously.
Well what exactly would you disagree with in that thread? The teen board is bad over there and that is it.

Haha, if that's the case, I wonder what else my mind can held...:cool:
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I listened through again and it was carbs not protein. Meh, I ****ed up =P

Whats in that link is good solid info, and generally speaking the boards [except teen] arent too bad. I still prefer tmag though :p

"One last question...What's the point of half before a workout and half after a workout? What about a full size before and a full size after?"

I'm no creatine whizz, so I cant really help. Although as far as I understand, you take some before so it starts kicking in during/just after your work out and the rest to keep it all going and let your muscles easily relax and heal. Though thats guesswork.

Creatine does NOT relax or heal.

Pre for creatine muscle saturation and post because the muscles are depleted of creatine and are begging for more. That's it.

In a sense I suppose it has a healing effect. Since your taking more water, and more water is being absorbed by your muscles, they have an easier time recovering. We all know water is one of the necessities of life ;)
