"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.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Hey dave, how much do you weigh and what are your lifts for the big 3 lifts? (squats, deadlifts, bench press)

Ultimately big arms come down to overall amount of muscle mass you hold. Therefore if you add some serious muscle mass using the mass building exercises (squats, deadlifts, bench press, barbell rows/pullups/pulldowns, shoulder press), and do your bicep curls as well, you're gonna increase the size of your arms. :)

gain 40lbs of overall musculature and your arms should have another couple of inches on them

Focus on the core lifts: squat, bench press, deadlit, rows,... & eat more. When you got those two your arms will look big.

the general rule is for every 15 pounds you gain (of quality muscle) you will gain 1" on your arms. the arms make up a very small portion of our bodies in terms of muscle, and truthfully, the best way to build the arms is to work on heavy compound exercises. i know this isn't what you wanted to hear, but this is the truth.

I would do bench presses, squats, dead lifts, hanging cleans, and other heavy, mass building exercises.

Let me tell you what you should NOT do:
* lift arms everyday
* lift arms more than twice a week
* spend 10 hours in the gym doing 1000 different exercises.

be smart about your training and diet.
 

"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.

Remember, that we all have different genetic traits. Some guys have more Type 2 fibers in theiir chest, back or whatever, and won't have much of them in their arms, or forearms, etc.
Don't beat yourself up.
You're a kid. Just 16.
You've got plenty of time.
Just don't be so over zealous and eager that you do everything wrong, andnever get results, and eventually injure yourself.
Don't become one of those guys that always say :"Yeah, I used to work out. I used to be buff, dude."
Do all the things the guys say to do on here, You'll do fine. Don't try to hurry up the process.
