As heavy as you can, lift for 5 times, then pause 30 seconds, then repeat this three, four times.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
How many pounds do you usually lift?

"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.

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.
"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.
