"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.

Fat loss while still getting stronger

So last semester I mostly concentrated on getting stronger and bulking up and while I've seen some great strength gains some unwanted fat has piled up in the process. I really didn't do that much cardio maybe once a week and the occasional pick-up game but I've gained 15 pounds and it is definitely not all muscles lol. I've heard that fatter people can lose weight and not have the fat loss affect strength gains. I was wondering if you guys could critique my new plan and give me some pointers. Basically I plan to split up the week into 3 lifting days and cardio on the other two. I've heard that cardio after lifting is very effective because your glycogen stores are mostly depleted after a hard lifting session and the body will turn to burning fat more quickly.. is that true and would it interfere with muscle gains? Here are my 3 lifting days:

Chest/shoulder/triceps
Bench
overhead press
dips
pec flys
skull crushers
(i tried incline bench but it felt really awkward, gonna try dumbells next chest day)


Back/biceps
Deadlift
t-bar row
lat pulldown (until I get strong enough to pull my own fat a$$ up lol)
shrugs
bicep curls


Legs
Squat
good mornings
calves
lunges

Diet-wise I'm cutting out sugar and fried crap of course, but should I still aim for 1g protein per lb bodyweight and if so about how many cals should I take in to still feed my muscles but still lose some weight (I'm a fattyer type guy 5'8 220lbs)? Any tips and critiques are very much appreciated thx guys.
