"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Does the brand of whey protein matter much?

I want to bulk up and would like to supplement my diet with whey because it's hard eating 150-200 grams of protein a day, but that shyt's expensive. Does the brand really matter much, so long as it's whey, or what?
 

"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.

Whey is only expensive if you buy the branded stuff. My whey works out at ~ £7 per kilogram. Try buying unflavoured in bulk from:

trueprotein.com (USA/Canada)
wheyconsortium.co.uk (UK)
myprotein.co.uk (UK)

Other guys could probably recommend bulk suppliers for other countries.

You can either buy flavourings with it, or use your own flavourings, (I use cocoa powder). Whey concentrate is whey concentrate, but comes in different protein concentrations. 80% is the most cost effective. Don't bother with isolate unless you're lactose intolerant.

Oh and 150-200g from whole food a day isn't that hard.

From what I've been reading I've been brainwashed to believe that only only one kind of whey is good, for example.

So I too am a little confused as to what to get and have basically the same problem as Scrumtulescence.

I use ON whey, they won the best protien suppliment on bb.com. You can't really go wrong with this one. They taste great and cheap.
 

“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.

Yea the chocolate mint goes down easy. Don't get the cookie and cream, they are just too sweet for my taste.

Can't remember what brand I bought, but it was a big tub for $20. The way I see it, it's a supplement, not a full meal, so taste shouldn't be that big of a deal. I got vanilla flavour and it fvcking tastes like coffee mate. I'll be trying a different flavour next round. But the way I look at it, whey powder doesn't taste as bad as some of the women I've been with :D

I'd keep that on the down low.
 

"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 didn't want to spend too much money on something I haven't tried before, so I got the TwinLab 100% Whey Protein Fuel (50g protein per two servings).

Does anyone have experiance with this/is it decent?

I really like Optimum Nutrition Whey Chocolate. It tastes like chocolate milk, hands down, there are alot of good flavours that are cheap such as the protein made by CytoSport (Not MuscleMilk, but The Whey Protein). There are several different types of protein whether its egg protein or whey protein and whether its isolate or concentrate.

As far as general protein consumption goes, I wouldnt suggest relying on Protien Powders for sources of protein. The only time most people should or would drink protein shakes is a) a post-workout shake b) if you are running late and dont have time to make eggs or something (this is not a good time either) eat some cottage cheese.
