"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.

I didn't get any quad doms but I got some of the most intense doms in the glutes and hamstrings that I have ever had and average doms in my calves so its quite a good posterior workout.

I did that workout on Wednesday, its now Sunday, and I still have fairly big doms in the hamstrings.
 

"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.

Yeah RDL's will work your glutes and hams pretty hard...

I'm not looking forward to the next day or two...trainer had me doing 8x3 Halting DL's(heavy weight) followed by 5x15 RDL's with lighter weight followed by squat-curl-presses 2x10 with heavy DB's and then 2x30 with lighter DB's and a bunch of other stuff after...legs feeling brutalized this morning already...

You can't get wheels without squats. That's what I tell myself.

Also deadlifting makes you feel like a BAMF.

Beyond that, find leg exercises that are enjoyable to you. For me, I do pistols with kbells.

I think most people would do well to vary their squats as different variations hit different parts of the quads harder. For instance hack squats really caused some serious front quad growth for me, even though my legs were already extremely thick and muscular from doing other variations...
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I used to hate it but now I like it, the benefit I get from it are magnificent.

Feel exhausted and relaxed while I feel my test to grow with a 360 degree benefit, also finally seeing my calfs growing is a blessing, surely not as fast as arms but still good enough to balance the body.

I also feel like training legs is helping me to recomp my body, I weight the same but I can see fat melting since I started going heavy on legs.
