"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.

Got my calipers...ditching the scale

My bodyfat scale gives me anywhere from 29-33% bodyfat. I kinda suspected it was full of sh!t so I purchased some electronic calipers. It measures weight like a champ, BTW.

With the calipers I take a three site measurement three times and average it out. I pretty consistently hit around 24.5%. (I know, gotta get the fat under control)

I'm gonna see if I can get someone at my new gym to measure me to see how accurate I am.

Anyone else had bad luck with the scale?
 

"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.

I'm sure glad I don't LOOK that fat.

Some carry it better than others and fortunately I'm one that wears it well.

Gonna look REAL good when I get down below 12%.

Is it accurate if you measure the bodyfat on your own self, or do you need someone to measure it (like on the back)? I might be interested in getting one.

The three site method takes measurements from the chest, belly, and leg. Although it takes some practice you can measure yourself.

I bought mine (FatTrackII) @ www.bodybuilding.com for under $30. I've seen them elsewhere for closer to $50.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
