"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 Much do you Exercise?

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I go somewhere between 3-5 times a week, usually spending an hour or two.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

MWF I will do one hour of cardio and then 1 hour of weight training. TT I just do cardio for one hour. On weekends I don't go to the gym but try to walk everyday for about 2 hours.

It's not difficult to do this. The hardest part is simply getting into the habit. Once you get into the routine it feels weird NOT to go to the gym.

I can't imagine hitting any gyms when I'm an old man...all that bulk the 'do you even lift' guys are putting on, will likely end up as flab.

Try some kind of high intensity interval training.

I’m focusing less on bulking and more on toning. In my line of work it doesn’t make sense to be mega ripped.

Having energy though for long shifts in the medical field is more important when I will have to be on my A game and sharp. With kickboxing, I feel an endorphin spike immediately following a work out and I have energy to study after that.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Toning makes more sense...

Imagine 'the rock' (Dwayne Johnson) as an old man....

...more like 'the blob'

For the past year I've worked out a lot. I work out almost every single day.. Maybe one day off every couple weeks. Mostly weights with the odd day jogging a few miles.

Right behind you
I work out when I feel like it. There’s no set schedule. There was a period of time where I was overtraining to such an extent to where I was only able to handle it because I invoked a ‘do or die’ mentality, but that was super hard to do. It was about 2.5 years ago and I’m only now starting to recover really. My CNS was fried. I don’t think I had adrenal fatigue though, I had that one from overtraining when I was 14.

But yeah, right now I exercise whenever I feel like it. I just listen to my body because that will help me recover. Sometimes I’ll be active for almost 5 hours, other days I don’t do jack ****. I’m active at my job too, so there’s also that. But for the most part, when it comes to formal training, I’m very fluid. I don’t have any specific exercises that I do in a specific way with a certain number of reps or sets (though I do typically keep it more formalized when I do actually do them). I stopped training like that now.
I’m only like this right now because I’m only trying to maintain right now, not necessarily get a whole lot better in particular. When it comes to improving and getting in better shape though, I exercise like a nut. At the end of August, the season will start back up again for me. For the 3 months after that, I will be exercising anywhere from 27-33 hours a week. The 3 months after that will only have to be more than 20 hours (although the vast majority of those days will likely be over 25 hours a week). It’s gonna be very rough for me. But hopefully I can get in ridiculously great shape and do better than I could have imagined. Through God’s will.
 

"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.

Also I do battle rope exercises usually about 5 days a week for 4 sets. Also, I’m recovering from a total knee replacement which I had November of 2017 so I do certain knee bending exercises at the gym Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday. This takes me usually 2 hours. I started working out in 1992 so I’m 47 now and I’m 5’11 and 200 lbs and I’m between 15% to 20% body fat I was the last time checked.

Have a solid breakfast, on the off chance that you practice toward the beginning of the day, rise sufficiently early to complete breakfast somewhere around one hour before your exercise, estimate matters, be mindful so as not to try too hard with regards to the amount you eat before work out, nibble well, Smoothie, eat after you exercise, yogurt and organic product, drink up, Water...








Life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans
