"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Okay mate, I've got a thigh injury at the moment so my cardio's restricted to the old-fashioned morning power-walk/jog.

The weather's still sweltering over here, so I'll using my gym and the treadmill on an incline with a slow pace, 30-45 minute sessions, and of course, my secret weapon, peaches from the garden. Big fat juicy ones.

I'll stick to one peach pre-cardio and a pro/carb breakfast 30+ mins or so afterwards and let you know how the fruit theory goes. The usual variables (intensity, length, post-workout nutrition) are all in place as far as I've discovered for my body, the only change is the pre-cardio food.

I'm interested to see what'll happen, and I'll surely let you know.

Cheers for the tip mate, hopefully we can put the skeptics to rest. (or in the worst case, discover that fruity cardio doesn't work after all)
 

"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.

i tried the fruity cardio this morning.

Definitely an energy spike... leaves me hungrier for that pro/carb meal after the walk. I was more intense throughout the walk, but found the energy to like die completely at around 25-30 minutes. (I had an orange this morning pre-walk).

Anyway... you got two guinea pigs ;)

Nice one guys

I'd be interested to hear your feedback - I found it worked for me, but it'd be nice to hear others say it too.

Go easy on that quad, Warboss, rest it up lots cos I imagine you'd go crazy and get locked up if you injured it more and couldn't squat ever again lol.

Exactly, that was in July. This is September now, Manuva's suggested something which I'd like to verify for myself. If so then yeah, I'll change my opinion and that thread will be null and void, everyone's entitled to change their mind about things like this.

Don't be so obtuse mate, there's a good fellow.
