"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.

I dunno what happened today. I trained hard at the gym, I was feeling good, and then, after about 30 minutes, I felt so soft and weak.... I had a hard time lifting my school bag... does that mean I trained well ? or too heavy ?
I don't think I trained too heavy because it doesn't hurt or anything, I just feel weak
Is that normal ? I don't know much about muscles so don't flame :)
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

It is possible you overtrained. Very possible and most likely. I say give it a few days before training again.

How many sets/exercises did you do? How long were you in the gym for?

Tip for helping you with your energy and recovery ability:
Postworkout take in 30-50 grams of carbs, like dextrose or maltodextrin, and about 20-40 grams of protein in water or have a full meal that has slow/fast digesting carbs and protein. This will do a world of good for your training if you are not already doing this. Goodluck:)

Did you have any pre-workout carb?

Anyone have any suggestions on pre-workout drinks/carbs?
 

"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.

A full meal 2 hours before working out would be ideal, otherwise 20 grams of carbs, maltodextrin or dextrose would work, and about 10 grams of protein mixed in water would work well. The idea behind this is that you kickstart the recovery process earlier as well as work out in a non catabolic state. Goodluck:)
