As heavy as you can, lift for 5 times, then pause 30 seconds, then repeat this three, four times.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
How many pounds do you usually lift?

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I'm guessing here b/c I usually do 4 sets of 6, but I would say about 230 or so 4 sets of 5 with 30 seconds of rest in between

Are you talking about deadlifts? If so probably 296.

30 secs of rest is way too fukkin' short. This isn't cardio. It's weight lifting.
When lifting heavy especially on back, chest, legs, you should be taking AT LEAST 2 minutes... ideally around 3-4 minutes b/w sets.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I work each body part twice a week, the first time, I'll rest 3 minutes between and then the second time I'll rest 30 seconds, it seems to help me move up once a week. But ideally, I know it's too short of a rest

Short rest breaks are good for mass building because they increase workout density, but longer rests are better for strength building because they enable you to use more weight, longer.

Sometimes i go on a short intense workout where i try to rest as little as possible to keep the workout as intense as possible.

If you are lifting for mass... you have to lift heavy. period. i.e. you have to give yourself enough recovery time to continue to lift heavy on your subsequent sets. I find all this "no-rest" "intense workout" bullshyt for mass purposes... it is a fitness' rags fancy way of describing "circuit training" - WHICH WILL NOT ADD MASS.
"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.
