"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

You should go into the h&f forum, or go to anabolicminds.com. And muscles wont get you chicks, so make sure your doing it for you.

Really? Muscles certainly help out. Some girls won't even go for a guy with no muscles, though I guess that a good DJ could overcome an obstacle like that.navyseal2101 said:You should go into the h&f forum, or go to anabolicminds.com.

"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.

hmm..muscles aren't necessary but they can help...usually the problem is that most of the buff guys at school/jocks are funny too but lack the ability to mentally stimulate a girl...some girls like a guy who can get deep...but others just want a guy that can screw em hard i guess
if you want to work on your lower 2 abs...or abs in general...ive been doing this simple routine since 5th grade and it has always worked...BUT..i don't have much fat and i'm tall so it's not hard for me to get defined abs....for lower abs though, i just do planks and leg raises and pikes...for upper abs the ancient sit up/crunch....obliques i do crossover crunch looking things...and bicycles for the hell of it...running helps too of course..and basically core endurance exercises

If you want abs:
-lose weight
-lots of sit ups
-lots of crunches
They are the basic steps, and work very well if you keep at them.
It's best to work out all your muscles though. It takes time, good sleep, lots of protein, hard work, and persistence.

"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.
The only way to get abs is to have a low bf %Captain said:If you want abs:

From those pictures, all you need to do is lose weight.
Everyone has abs, most people have too much fat over the top. So if you want to see abs, lose weight. Exercising them will help increase their size, but you still need to lose weight to have them be visible.

"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.
Bro, if youre looking to bulk up, google "mark rippetoe's starting strength". It is a very basic compound movement-oriented workout program designed especially for beginners and for skinny guys looking to bulk and gain strength. This is basically what the workout is about:
Workout A
squats - 3 sets of 5
bench press - 3 sets of 5
deadlift - 1 set of 5
Workout B
squats - 3 sets of 5
military press - 3 sets of 5
powercleans/backrows - 3 sets of 5 (2 sets of 5 for powercleans)
You lift 3 times a week alternating each workout, so it would be likeday 1 - workout a day 2 - workout b day 3 - workout a -2 days rest- day 4 - workout b and so on.
Basically, you will be doing heavy compound exercises (5 rep max) and it will help you stimulate your body and cause you to grow.
I myself have been a scrawny dude (6'0 130) but thanks to this program and ALOT of eating, I managed to bulk up 10 pounds in about 2 months. My goal for the summer is to gain 15 more pounds.
I must warn you; these exercises require very presise form. You might want to ask a very experienced lifter to help you do the exercises right.
The most important thing about bulking, however, is you have to eat like a madman. Right now, my calorie intake is roughly 3500-4000 calories a day.
You have to eat at least 6 times a day. Eat alot with every meal. Eat carbs, fat and protein. For me personally, I dont care about gaining fat, I am very skinny and welcome all gains. I also do about 30 minutes of cardio a week.
It is very hard for us ectomorphs to gain dude, but it is definetely worth it. Even though I've only gained 10 pounds, I can feel my testostarone going up. I feel horny as hell constantly, I am now constantly feeling hungry, I have tons more energy and tons more confidence. Even my voice sounds more confident and deeper. Not to mention, I am a lot stronger. And I think girls are noticing, because out of the blue I now get chicks starting to talk to me.
Anyways, it is a tough road but it is definetely worth it. Good luck meng.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
