Running
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
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.
cross training is not just running its a mix of aerobic and anaerobic activity such as running and lfitingOriginally posted by Boricua_33015
this might be a stupid question but.... what is cross-training?
it depends on what you are trying to accomplishOriginally posted by Boricua_33015
do you guys really mean I shoudl RUN or jog? Ive been JOGGING for the past couple of days in the morning for 15 minutes non-stop. After the 15 minutes is over and I stop, about 15 seconds later I feel like I can do more...... please clear this up for me.
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.
though wht he is talking about is true regarding form, doing crunchies, situps, and othe abs excercises will not give you a 6-packOriginally posted by Microphone Fiend
just find a time that works best 4 u and stick to it. For me, I do 2 sets of 50 crunches right before I get my shower to go to sleep every night. I started out at like 25 a night but after a while your muscles adapt and it isn't as much as a workout.
Things to rememeber when doing sit-ups are:
Use your stomach to lift, NOT your neck-This is how most people mess up. When I do crunches, the key is to try and raise my whole upper body at once, not just in sections, you just have to foucs on using you stomach muscles and conciously tell your mind to use them.
If you think you might be using your neck too much: do crunches with your hands on the back of your neck. If you can feel the muscle in your neck bulge a lot then you know you are doing it wrong. Just focus on your stomach more when doing them. At the end of a set or two you should feel the burn in your stomach, not your neck or arms
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.
