"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.

“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.

full body workouts are what constitutes strongman training, so i plan to do a lot of them in the strongman style.

"Lets try to pretend for a minute we're actually intelligent people here. Elaborate. Tell me why."

first of all i will pretend you didnt just call me stupid, if that is what you were getting at.

second it is just personal preference

i find that when you do a full body workout, you will not be able to hit everything with an adequate amount of sets and energy for optimal growth (for me becuase at this point this is what im used to). they take much too long if i were to do the same amount of sets if i were to make it equal to waht i would normally do.

putting legs and upper body together is a killer, especially if you are doing squats, deads, bench, or what ever you want to do. i truly feel that a split is necessary.

of course this is my opinion, i havnet lifted that long, getting close to 2 years now, but for me a full body workout has never worked as well as anyhting else.

Refer to my first post in this thread.

Then come back and tell me why a full body workout would 'suck' for a newbie lifter.

a fully body workout is best done with 2-3 sets and 1-2 exercises per bodypart, and only 2-3 workouts per week, also using as little failure as possible
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
