"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Hi I'm Trying to bulk up while I'm training mma. Finding it very hard because of the intence cardio. I'm 19 and weigh 80kg and 185cm tall

My training.
most mornings i do situps and skipping

Mon:Weights eg. 120kg squats, 85kgbench, rows,chins ect
Tue:Thai boxing. one hour
Wed: weights
Thu:Thai boxing
Fri: sparing
Sat: BJJ and MMA. 3 hours
Sun: sleep all day with painkillers

I eat well. all the good sh!t. oats, tuna, chicken, wholmeal rice, rye bread,flaxseed oil,fruit veg,kangaroo,fish, eggs,protein shake.sweet potato ect.

but I can't eat too much then do hardcore cardio because i'll feel sick.

How do the pros do it. I just can't budge from 80kg.
Any magic pills. HGH, Testostorone, steroids

My goal is 90kg. I got to 84kg once when i was off mma for a while. then got food poising from raw egg, i think(i still eat them raw tho) and never got it back.

anyone doing the same thing?
 

"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.

You eat kangaroo? SUHWEEEET

How expensive would it be to get that stuff here in the states?

And if you want to see a buff UFC guy....Jeff Monson, interestingly enough, a submission guy...

As well as I can recall, 5'9 240 something pounds (175cm, 109kg) if I did the math right...

Man kangaroo is the the most healthy red meat you can buy at the suppermarket. All natural, very lean, game meat. I killed my owne once.

Not like some fat ass cow or lamb. kangaroo is pure muscle.

I'ts cheap too.Some people dont like the taste but i love it.
Tastes like cow but with a richer meater flavor.

I'll send you a joey(baby kangaroo) over and you can raise it till it's big enough to eat.

that sounds like a great plan:up:
 

"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.

Wow, you can eat kangaroo in Australia? That's awesome, I gotta try some one day.

We've got bison around here, it's pretty lean.

Kangaroo is the shiznit, tastes kinda gamey though. We run them down in our cars and then take them home for dinner.

So there's nothing I can do. I'm going to look into steroids. Seems to be the only way. Or maybe eat more kangaroo

instead of doing weights on wednesday, do meditation. take a 1 to 2 hour walk outside with music. its still a workout, and you dont get tired, thus making you feel relaxed. then once sunday comes along, you wont need any painkillers because youve given your body a chance to relax. seriously, thai boxing tuesday + thursday, and sparring on friday(which has the same effects as thai boxing because it is combat + cardio) really puts a strain on your body.

pushing yourself too much is almost as bad as not pushing yourself at all. try creating a medium.
 

"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.

then thats only weights once a week. how is that going to make me big. I don't feel I'm overtraining, after sunday im good again. The painkillers are also for the massive brusing on my legs and they let me sleep with pain. My schedule is pu$$y compared to some guys. But I may have to cut down on the cardio. maybe less muay thai

You have to eat more and lift more to put on the muscle. That may mean cutting back on the martial arts until you reach your desired weight.

Are you recovering properly?

I don't know why you want to bulk up. In fighting sports, the lighter you are the better shape you have. Hypertrophy should be avoided, since it slows you down in fight.

Maybe increase those squats to 200 kilos and you'll get there. lol

You're overdoing it if you're trying to gain weight.

Lift big, eat big, rest big is the key to gaining weight.

Then you can work on your cardio.
 

"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.

This is true, don't confuse muscle SIZE with muscle strength.

Sure, getting bigger will look more intimidating, but getting STRONGER will BE more intimidating. Granted, you're going to get a little bit of size as you build in strength, it's hard not to, but size shouldn't be your main focus.

Size is not my only focus, thats why I'm not bodybuilding. But those that think size dose not matter are kidding themselfs. The reason they introduced weight divisions is because good small guys were getting there a$$es kicked buy big $h!t fighters. Heavy weight fighters that are muscily (not sumo style) will normally beat a fast middleweigh.

"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.
