"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Well I'm just about to get started on working out. I have a membership to the local gym and I'm trying to decide where to begin.

I'm about 5'8", and I weigh somewhere between 135-140 lbs. This is heavy for me, as I'm a textbook skinny guy who, at the same height, once weighed 125lbs. At that weight, however, I had a six pack. Now it seems that I have gut and my pecs are dangerously close to becoming man boobies. Even so, I'm still a skinny guy.

Should I start right away bulking up, or should I drop some of this extra body fat first?
 

"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.

Let's make a new law. Anyone under 180 lbs who considers 'cutting' should be castrated.

Okay, more constructively.. if you're only 10lbs off having a six pack then you don't have to lose this. Get a nice structured workout at the gym and in a coupla months I bet you'll've got your sixpack back more or less - the bodyfat being burnt solely through the body's new exertions.

So at 150 pounds I should still bulk despite being at 25% BF?

I'm only 5'6", BTW.
 

"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.

At 150lbs and 25% bodyfat you've got better things to worry about than whether to bulk or cut, my friend.

bulk first... when you have more muscles... the fat will be easier to take off.

In the case of a skinny guy at 25% bodyfat, wouldn't the body be predisposed to storing fat over building muscle? What sort of diet would a person in that situation go on?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
