"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.

Maybe the caffeine in the green tea extract helps to mobilize the fatty acids from the adipose tisssue to be used as fuel source.

Green Tea does contain EGCG, a very potent antioxidant. It also contain a ****tail of other polyphenol compounds similar to EGCG.
The caffeine has a negligible effect on fat mobilisation since decaf green tea provides the same thermogenic benefits more or less - it's all in the polyphenols. :D
 

"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.

After a week of taking these, I can honestly say that green tea capsules are perhaps the best supplement I've ever spent money on.

Unlike caffiene, you can take several of these a day without getting that crash & burn, high-blood pressure, jittery effect. These things seem to crank my metabolism as much as a session of cardio. Highly recommended. :up:

What about for weight gain (trying to retain all the fat I can get.)

it'd still be in my 'must have' supplements list regardless of your goals.

weight gain will and never be attributed to a supplement (unless it's super supplements).

Spes, why would you want to retain bodyfat? Weight is just a number. I'd rather be 150 at 10% BF than 160 at 15%

(I'd much rather be 190 @ 9% bodyfat, but hey, thats a long ways off.)

"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.

Won't it eventually aid in muscel gain? something to do with excess calories. . .

My body fat is probably in the single digits.

Well if it's in the single digits, then no worries, but bodyfat (as far as I know) doesn't aid in anything really.

Now, adding healthy fats to your DIET, thats a whole different story.

extra bodyweight, either through fat or muscle, will make you stronger quicker because of the extra leverage, but the payoff (it'll be harder and take longer to take the fat off) isn't worth it unless you're a powerlifter/strongman going for pure strength.
