"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.

Ok, it's really hard to explain, but I'll try:


day 1 I train Legs.

day 2, I rest.

day 3, there are 2 possibilities: If I am sore yet, I rest, otherwise I train Chest.

day 4, if I trained on day 3, I rest, otherwise I do what I should have done on day 3

day 5, if I'm not sore, I train Back, otherwise I rest

and so on....


I'll try to make it clearer:

I train every other day if I'm not sore, otherwise I rest for 2 days in a row.
Every time I work out, I train just one body part


What do you think?

Consider that I want to bulk a bit, I'm 65kg more or less and I'd like to get to 70-72 (that is around 15-20 lbs, if i don't mistake)
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

why would you not train chest if your legs are still sore? Last time i checked you dont need your legs when doing flys or db presses.

I think i'd lift about 1 day a week using this method.

Why modify the base 3way split? You've more or less got got a MWF workout. Add shoulders to leg day, triceps to chest day and biceps to back day and you're there - keep the weekend free for your two full days of rest which should make sure your body's ready for the next week.

As for being sore, I agree with the other posters, having sore legs doesn't mean you can't train your chest. What if you do a really hard squat set and feel it in your quads for a few days? Do you just stop working out?

Having said that, exercising a muscle group which is still very sore can be dangerous. If you're lifting and it hurts, stop before you do some serious damage.

Otherwise, I can't see a reason why not to do the basic 3way split. It's more or less what you described anyway.
 

"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.

i read somewhere that if you work out while your body is recovering, the recovering will be longer and less effective, i don't know if it's true or not

i noticed that when i concentrate just on one muscle group per day, i work it out far better. plus, when i let myself rest for longer times, my muscles grow more
