"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Will doing my current 5 day split, working each muscle a day, be good for preparing for football? Or do i have to go with a football workout? Also, where can i find a good football workout routine? (i know some like cleans, and benches) But i want to know some routines football players use.


THANKS!
 

"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.

You're 15 and on a 5-day split. I think that needs addressing before you try to workout which exercises are best for football.

Your best option is bodyweight exercises. Chins, dips, pushups, squats, crunches.

To become a textbook blocker and tackler you need lower body strength. Go intense with squats and supplement it with calf raises. Strong calves will give you added balance to follow through on your blocks and tackles.

Hope that helps....
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Individual bodypart training is for bodybuilders not athletes, so doing a 5 day split like you suggested isn't the best idea. As an athlete you want numerous muscle groups to work in unison, not in isolation, so a combination of muscle groups into a 2 day lower/upper split or into a 3 day push/pull/legs routine is a better idea.

Here is a good training program for footballers. It covers all parts of the conditioning required: http://www.defrancostraining.com/articles/archive/articles_westside2.htm

Read around the site as well, especially the ask joe section, it has some top quality information.
