"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.

hey guys which is the best fat burner in your opinion? I've heard lots of hype about all of them and I did post about alcar a while back but I'm still kinda confused...

the main ones I've seen are:

acetyl l carnitine
hydroxocut hardcore
hot rox extreme
venom hyperdrive
thermonex

so far I'm leaning towards thermonex but what do you guys think?
 

"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.

At least 30-45 minutes of cardio a day with a low calorie, balanced diet.

atm I'm trying to do:

200g protein, 100g carbs, 60g fats

for the next 4 weeks I'm gonna be doing 2 full body workouts and cardio twice a week (90 minute kickboxing)

in 4 weeks I'm back at uni so it's gonna be doing a 4 day split with 20 minutes running a day and 30 minutes rowing a day on the 3 days I'm not lifting...


would the fat burners help on top at all?

cheers, Alex

No. See my post at the end of the other thread about running "Fat Loss (while gaining muscle)"

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

BCAAs will not help you in that respect. HIIT is a very tricky thing to master if you want to keep your muscle - it's possible but I'd advise sticking to walking.

I dunno man, I really want to keep doing it just to stay fit - not just looking it, but being able to back it up...

am I looking at much muscle loss from all the cardio? I always thought it'd be minimal but would help get rid of lots of fat if you got the diet right...

Look at it this way. You don't see the huge bodybuilders doing sprints to get lean. But you do see a lot of marathon runners who are scrawny. That's your answer to how much muscle you'll lose.

I don't see why people think that walking briskly doesn't keep you fit and they HAVE to run...
