"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

Don't actually know much about BB.com as a supplement provider, ie whether they are any good.

A lot of the information on it is awful and the majority of posters on the forums dreadful.

Their store might be alright.

Myprotein.co.uk is a safe bet for the UK guys, and bulkpowdwers.co.uk as well.

Trueprotein.com for the Americans.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Quagmire, which protein do you use from myprotein.com? I'm tempted to buy the rice one as its really cheap (not even £8), but in the reviews most people say it has a really gritty texture.

and also is the P+P included in the price?

Yes buy it, I use the same whey and have had no problems. Only chocolate tastes good though. Myprotein net prices are not good btw. :)

Nope just protein powder, convenient to use after workout and in any other times where it's useful. Don't go overboard on it. :)
 

"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.

Myselve being extremely lean (I burn calories like crazy and have trouble eating enough to compensate) I like the fact that creatine makes your muscles hold water, which instantly gives you between 1 - 3 kgs of extra weight (disappears again when you stop using it though). You have to have low BF for this to be noticable though, or you might just look more fat.
Also it makes you a bit stronger (not sure if this is proven but it sure feels that way) so you can train a bit heavier.

Are u kidding? of course it's been scientifically proven, it was scientifically proven before they even decided to turn it into a supplement. that is the whole premise of Creatine (Creatine Monophosphate) i.e more ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate) in muscle fibres therefore more energy available = more strength.

Show me a UK supplier that has better prices MM.
www.bodyactive-online.co.uk and H&B with their regular offers of £11. The prices on myprotein.com are NOT real. They charge you like £6-7 on top of the listed prices for P&P and that's if you live nearby. The cheapest P&P is like £6 and that takes like 4-5 days to get to your door. Why do that when you can buy a tub of whey yourself for £11?
