"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.

"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.

Hey man... I think it's a little much training the militaries 4 times a week.. I'd go with 2 tops or you'll just plateue on it or even regress.

Very attainable goals otherwise. :up:

Dude... that's terrible... if you are good at baking then do a set of wardogs protein bars... Bring food... like whole wheat bread with eggs on them.. or a giant can of whey protein...

If they have a microwave oven at that place then you can do big cookings at the weekends and save in tupperware and bring every day.
 

"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.

yeah it's terrible..i cant bake but maybe i give the recipe to my mum muahaha.....yeah i should bring food better then some candies and fastfood......a can of whey.....umm i could.....but i wanna smoke talk and eat in the breaks not mixing whey with weierd looks from everywhere :/.......im thinking of taking a big bottle of mixed whey with me.......would this be okay?? i mean....i know mixing it hours before drinking it slows down digestion....but the protein doesnt go away so it would be okay?no we dont have microwaves etc.......so i guess making chicken sandwich and bringing premixed whey and some junk food would be a good solution for the future?

5x35kg new record
4x35kg
4x35kg

Dude nice record.. +10 kg on the militaries... CNS seem to be wakening now.

Lol.. yeah sounds like a good idea. Mixing whey before going to school shouldn't be no worry. You say it yourself, the protein is still there, and if it slows down in digestion its only a good thing. Anyway... I'll write you something if I come up with something you can do. =)

lol, ok sorry about that.

im guessing that you guys are progressing well without a routine? i might try this myself.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

want to start a new journal next week. A new journal because i will never go again through so much bulking and cutting pain. pretty damn stupid to constantly forcefeed myself, ending up feeling like fat **** and then eating very little and feeling like a pvssy. sure it accelerates getting a good body, but feeling like crap won't let me reach my goals.
Wassup double?Where in germany are you from? I'm german, too, but I'll keep writing in english so nobody takes offense :D
Anyways..i just read you couldnt do chest? Is that true..if so what's the reason?

Plus I saw for military press you did like 3 sets with the same weight and the same number of reps (5*35 5*35 5*35). If you can do 3 sets with the exact same number of reps and weight that means you could do (much?) more reps for the first set. You should really choose a weight that allows you to do 6-8 reps for the first set and as soon as you can do 2 more reps (8-10) UP the weight. One of the things that have always helped me when I was wondering if I was growing or not was that I just sticked to my belief, that if I could increase the weight on my lifts over time, my muscles would have to grow and thus I would get visible results sooner or later if i sticked to it...and well it worked out pretty well tho during the first year or so i was constantly wondering if i had really gained muscle. But if you can keep increasing the weight on several lifts youll gain muscle. Some people will tell you strength and muscle are two different things but thats just not true. You can kind of influence the ratio of muscle/strength by using a different number of reps for your sets, but theres no way youre gonna get really muscular without being able to increase your lifts. Plus theres no way you can double or your benchpress or military press without getting a muscular chest/shoulders. Sometimes youll see guys who look less "strong" / muscular than you but who are able to bench or curl more weight, but that can be because they have shorter arms than you (I once read that ull have a very hard time becoming a good basketball player if ure small and you could have muscles like arnold schwarzenegger but have very long arms youll have a very hard time becoming a good weight lifter). Plus a lot of times you see guys who dont look overly muscular when wearing a shirt but when u see them without one (hope this doesnt sound too gay lol) u see they have definetly been working out those muscles. I know one guy who for his size has probably a somewhat more muscular body than me, but when hes wearing a shirt he looks just normal..but if he hadnt been weighlifting he wouldnt look average but plain skinny.
Anyways..dont care about other ppl..its all about yourself and if u can up the weights u lift ur muscles cant help but grow.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
