"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.

This morning I was at my gym, stretching and waiting for the womans' yoga class to get finished their class so I could practice my martial arts. And as I walk into the room to beat the **** out of the heavy bags, who do I see behind me. A big tall white guy with a shaved head, I think to myself, "Where have I seen this guy before?" So while I'm hitting the bag, he asks me what I train in, and then I recognized him from the show on the History Channel called, "The Human Weapon", for those of you who have never seen it or aren't interested in MMA, this means nothing to you. But for those of you who do, I had the opportunity to speak with him for a little while and he is a very cool dude. Apparently the filming of that show was some intense ****, he shared some crazy stories with me about his journey across the world learning various disciplines of martial arts. If I see him again I'm thinking of asking to interview him for those of you who are interested, please post any questions you have for him and I'll see what I can do!
 

"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.

I enjoy watching the show as entertainment...but I hope those two guys have a tongue in cheek attitude about their own abilities after two weeks of training.

Did you ask how much time they actually spend with each martial art?

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
Bill's a big guy. In a real fight, he's not going to be using a lot of the finesse-arts...he's going to be taking full advantage of his size and reach.

That's got to be an interesting show to work on, though. The travel, the culture, and each martial art offers something to everyone.

What martial art if he had to choose one would be best for a streetfight?
 

"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.

Ask him

Which martial arts styles most impressed him and which ones most disappointed him. (personally after watching the Ninjutsu one I was disapointed, but the Cambodian and Malaysian guys I felt stepped it up more than I had inticipated)
