"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Does anyone have / use the "Spartan System"

"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.

LOL!.
The Spartan System is a Health Training Regime.

"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.
Do you mean the origonal training they did? Like eating a soup from a bull's blood, being in the army from the age of 7 and wearing super simple clothes?
No, I didn't try that
Edit: I changed the to they in the first sentence

Sure thing, Ice. I thought you typed wrong. I don't think anyone here does that (the army thing @ age 7) either.
However, WALDEN read this:
"About 2 in every 100 Americans are in a Spartan training camp where every day they lift weights, eat what they are given, do what they are told, and are forbidden most outside contact. In this atmosphere, the utmost importance is placed on combative prowess since all creative energies can only be directed towards bettering their martial discipline. Within this camp, there are high rates of violence and some Spartan trainees get killed. The people continually work out to maintain a combat physique which will give them respect and the capacity to defend themselves from their enemies while their weaker enemies learn to harness topical weapons in order to compete against their brute force foes."
Mike Walden, if you wan't to join this Spartan training camp, just fly to the United States, kill someone, and before you know it they'll put you in a prison... ehh, Spartan camp.

It's comedians week on Sosuave...
"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 am extremely sceptical
First of all, he makes some outrageous claims like this:
Then, when you lose 25 kilos in a month (as most of his clients did), you'll lose about 10 kilos of muscle. When you have a really small bf, your immune systen is weakened significantly. You're more succeptible to colds and esp tuberculosis.
I don't particularly want that.
To be super ripped is just as bad for your health as to be obese.
In my opinion, the perfect body is one that's flexible, cardio conditioned and has good amount of muscle. Cover that with a finger-thick layer of fat and you're perfect
But that's just me, and I could be wrong...

Ice, when you say 'super ripped,' how low of a BF% do you have in mind? Are we talkin something extreme, along the lines of 5%, or something more common in the world of amateur bodybuilding, such as 8-9%?Originally posted by Ice Cold

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
They didn't give exact body fat % because they didn't measure it. Basically the study just noted that visibly chunky people had 10 times less chances to get TB
I think they took the layer of fat on the stomach as the control variable.
But it makes sence, right? If you have some fat deposits, you can replace cell membranes much more easily in case an infection occurs.
BTW: my mantoy confirms it. I was quite skinny during childhood and it was always positive. Now I gained some weight, tested last month and it's so totally negative, there's not a single spot

Actually I agree. Too much (obese) or too little (skinny) is bad.Originally posted by Ice Cold
