"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.

How do you keep from withering away after injury?

Well guys,

I'm pretty devastated about my immediate-lifting future after suffering what feels like a significant shoulder injury playing basketball yesterday.

Long story short, I was blindsided by a 290lb bowling-ball of a man who was attempting to intercept a long outlet pass which was heading my way. I didn't even see him until he plowed straight through my left shoulder and the next thing I knew I was spinning down flat on the ground.

Today, I can't even lift my arm without excruciating pain shooting through my shoulder. I'll probably give it one more day and then get it checked out.

It's pretty apparent at this point that I won't be doing anything overly strenuous for a while. My question is, how can I keep from shriveling up and wasting all the nice gains I've been experiencing over the past few months?
 

"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.

Just do what I would do, just keep protein intake still coming every few hours. This might be a time to utilize machines more and just take it real easy and light, yet I imagine you can still hit legs real hard. If you could shed a few lbs of fat, now is the time to do some morning cardio and if I were you I'd at least call a good physical therapist. Hopefully you have insurance. Yet it's too hard to judge over an internet forum.
