Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

i got the inspiration for this somewhat from the knuckle pushup post. if you hit your abs when they are tight will they get really hard?
 

"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.

It's feasible but the results would be nearly negligable. You'll do wonders more with a decent cardio program, a weekly ab routine, and doing vacuums.

Doing vaccums? What does that mean?

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

It's a flexing routine. Just suck your stomach in until you see your rib well.

You exhale as much air as humanly possible then suck in your abs and hold for ten seconds with the tighest contraction you can manage.

Striking the abs will certainly help to condition them to receive such an impact partly by developing the fascia surrounding the muscles - useful for boxers and marshall artists for example. However, such an approach will not lend itself to the attainment of a ripped midsection - that's down to other factors such as diet, cardio and ab structure ie genetics.

if you want it hard have someone punch it, we do it regularly in karate and youll be surprised how much impact it you can take in the stomach after some time.
For advanced user try doing the solar plexus
 

"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.

Yes, hitting things can make your hands harder, but is the possibility of ****ing up your knuckles worth it? What I'd like to know is the one guy said try hitting in the solar plexus. How is that going to help? The area has no protection, so I don't see how it could get any harder.

Dude, a good shot to the solar plexus will kill you. Not the best suggestion.

Hey I dunno the science of it, for all I know it could just be a placebo effect, but I can take hard strickes to my stomach und plexus areas since doing what I discribed.

jakethesnake:

solarplexus hits CAN be lethal, im not suggesting that you ram iron bars in there, just light punches, then get stronger over time.
