"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

My friend said creatine is not the same thing as deballs so my question is then can you take them both and get twice as big at the same time?

Also whats a smith machine? Is it like a bench press?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Weight lifting won't stunt growth. READ the following:
http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?threadid=151548

creatine and dianobol are very different, dianobol is steroids, don't even think about taking it. Creatine article is here::

smith machine is crap, its basically a machine that holds the barbell in place so you can only move it in the vertical plane ( up and down)
this is bad for stabilizer muscles as they dont get worked out, and bad for form on a lot of exercises, keep away from smith machine

No, the Smith Machine is not crap at all. It has it's place like many other pieces of equipment. The very fact that it is a stable piece of equipment is it's advantage. You can position yourself to isolate or emphasise certain muscles that you couldn't with a free barbell. Altering feet position on squats for example - placing them forward or further back which you can't do with a barbell. If you don't have to contend with balance you can focus on the specific muscles more directly. Same principle for chest pressing.

Naturally, Smith exercises would be incorporated into a routine with plenty of free bar moves so the stabalizer muscles are worked anyway.

Hardrock - I'm willing to bet that if you only worked each body part once per week [you can still keep your three a week schedule], and increase the intensity, you'll see even bigger gains. Overtraining is a serious hurdle.
 

"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.

de balls are between de anus and de ****.

A smith machine works the Smiths - a whiny indie band from the UK..

A bench press is like a rabbit only more aggressive.

For a first cycle I recomend no less than 100mg of halo taken ED
 

"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.

Smith Machine is useless. Free weights trains muscles around that hlep balance it, so overall it trains more and builds more. Smith machine is for pussies, seriously. It takes like, 20lbs off anything you do, and then takes off 3/4 of the point in the movement, cause thers no balancing involved. If you can't reposition your feet for squats with a barbell, then you suck, and need to drop the poundage, cause you really don't know what your doing.

No offense to anyone, but seriously, READ.
 

"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.

Three people for 230?! What?!

Now, there was this guy at the gym today benching persay 310 at least, with ONE guy spotting him, that was taking off like mbey 20lbs on the last 2/3 reps. THAT'S hard work, but the guy your watching, isn't lifting that heavy man.
