"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.

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?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

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)"

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...
