"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?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

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)"

"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.

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...
