"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

If you just started out, go full body. Will make you learn the exercise technique better.Spade_1 said:Hey, I'm 16 5'8" and weight around 117lbs....I started lifting 3 times a week and my question is should I do full body or split workouts. Any other advice is appreciated.
Train 3 days a week, alternating between these:
Workout A:
Squat 5x5
Bench Press 5x5
Pull-ups: 3xfailure
Workout B:
Squat: 5x5
Overhead Press: 5x5
Deadlifts: 1x5
Start light, increase the weight on every workout for all exercises.
Good luck.

Starting out, you can make good and study gains doing only 2 or even 1 set per exercise per workout session. You will see steady increases of 1.25-2.5 lb increases to your PR. Also, recovery is quicker since you are doing low volume. Since you need very few sets per exercise to improve, a full body is best for beginners.
Another reason for the full body for beginners is that you will learn form faster. Some exercises take several sessions to get down, the two most complicated being squats and deadlifts.
do make sure you get the form right, and recognize that diet & rest are more important than the specifics of your program (presuming you pick a solid one).

Dude, maybe I'm totally off, but I think I can give you some solid advice, though not what you asked for.
I'm your same height, give or take, and I weigh 40 lbs more than you, yet I don't worry about routines and this kind of stuff yet. Shìt, I don't even watch my diet, though I'm a hardgainer. Unfortunately most people overanalyze bodybuilding rather than just doing some hard work. You don't grow by asking questions all the time or reading books. They can help, but you grow in the gym (and in bed, and in kitchen).
Unless you are a pro (which is not the case, since you should weigh at least 60 lbs more), all you need to know is "Lift, Eat - Rest, Repeat", nothing more than that. When you are over 150 lbs, you may come here and look for some info on how to reduce fat amounts, but until then just bust your @ss in the gym and in the kitchen and try to sleep 8 hours a night.
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
