"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.

To reiterate my sordid history:
<2005>Fractured neck, broken ribs, subdural hematoma, lacerated organs...coma

Since 2006, worked my way up, now I'm BP/DL/Squatting 160lbs. I'm 5'6", 150lbs...

I work out at home and adding plates each set is a pain in the a$$.

Is it a big deal that I leave 160lbs on and simply increase the reps for leg exercises? I know I could DL and squat well into the 200's but I resist cause I'm too lazy to move plates back and forth :confused:

I see you guys DLing 300lbs and I suspect I could have pushed that by now, but I'm more concerned with my own development over pure numbers.

It this a big deal?
 

"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.

There is no correct way of working out,it all about different strokes for different fokes.

Yes you are 42,you need to push yourself the hardest you can,you aren't getting any younger. You aren't a teenager anymore take advantage anything available to you,creatine,multi-vitamin,whey protein anything short of steroids.
