"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.

I dont know if this was brought up on this forum yet but here is a great documentary about an average joe getting into contest shape

I highly advise you to watch this, it's about 85 mins long and packs a ton of information and inspiration

http://www.zshare.net/video/7242795833d6b204/

the best part is at 8:30 about training


for those who think it's impossible and those who are discouraged.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Thanks for posting this! I've been trying hard to find this documentary for a while.

I'm currently bulking for a show later this year, and man, sometimes its tough to stay consistent with all the other things in life. I'm a little worried about the dieting phase... but I'll cross that bridge when I get there.

Bodybuilding is an expensive and brutal "hobby", but at this point in my life, its the only way I can take my physique to the next level.

the "expertise" wasnt really all that

he showed him proper form
gave him a typical split
drew up a basic diet focusing on calorie reduction

all of those things can be easily be done!

now, finding the will-power to consume 1300 calories is really tough
