"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.

I am thinking about trying this thing were you take 10 seconds up and 10 seconds down per rep. Does anyone have any good links or experience with this?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I've read about that sh1t in bb magazines, but I think it's pretty much BS. As long as you have a comfortable, controlled movement you should be fine.

what are you hoping to gain from this? previously you indicated you wanted to gain 45 lbs. of mass.... that will take a very, very long time, and right now you should be building a base, not mucking around with this sorta stuff.

Progressive resistance training and eating correctly is the only way to go Yake.

Stick to the basics and you can't go wrong - if you chop and change what you're doing constantly in regards to diet, training, exercises etc because you read a new article or heard about a 'new, cool workout', it's gunna hinder your results big-time.

Stick to a proven program that consists of mainly compound movements. Don't heave the weight up fast and there's no reason to go ultra-slow.. just controlled all the way up and down, not sticking or 'resting' at the top or bottom.

Stay away from bodybuilding magazine articles - they serve only as a distraction to someone who'se serious about putting a lot of mass on.

"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.

Ah. I got carried away there in my usual pre workout frenzy to find the "perfect routine" or something. I did, after all, stick to my basic compound medium speed routine, increased my reps and I felt great! That should teach me not to run after any new "philosophy" I find.

Oh, and now my goal is to gain 22 pounds. I don't really want to be huge anymore, and this is a lot more attainable.

People are too worried about time under tension. Load the bar. control it on the way down and bust your ass to get it up.

if you train your muscles that way your going to be one slow mother fker. I hope you don't play any sports if you plan on training that way.
