"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.
Just how much weight can I expect to put on on the skinnyguy prog?

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
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.

Anyway, in the end it doesn't matter because everyone is different. There was a guy on the skinnyguy forums who had to lift for more than a year to reach his goals, but in the end he went WAY farther than he ever thought he could. Then there are guys like Anthony Ellis who can gain 32lbs of muscle in 12 weeks. The point is you have to set a goal (example: reach 170lbs @ 9% bodyfat ) and then DO NOT QUIT UNTIL YOU REACH IT. That is the secret for success in anything, not just weightlifting.
The skinnyguy program is awesome though, definitely worth the money and it will get you the best/quickest results possible as long as you follow it. You will get out of it what you put in. Half ass effort = half ass results.
dlight, that's great man. 150-180 within a year- my new aimOriginally posted by D'light
I woudln't try to worry about how much weight you gain per week. Set a goal, say at the end of the summer, for a certain amount of weight you can gain. That's the way I did it, and I went from 150 to 180 my freshmen year of college. This wasn't the fatty freshmen gain, but muscle, as I lifted the entire time. Just set a larger goal, and it won't be as discouraging if you don't gain any weight a particular week! Good luck, it can be done.
ofcourse it does silver. the best way of looking at it is that if you have the mental ability to follow through on a goal such as bulking up, you have the mental ability for anything. - and you can look down on all of those weak guys who sit about all day doing nothing to improve their healthDoes going to the gym give u a massive boost in confidence too?
you also get a boost through the endorphins your body produces through working out. you'll feel more alive and happier and others will notice this new aura of energy around you.
"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.
