"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

focus on shoulders.
few front squats cos I had to - fine ass chick in the squat rack, so i needed to get a convo.

ended up OH press front and back 50kg. and just did bitsnpieces all over - bit of abs, planked a bit too and did pressups.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

So, chilled for a bit then ran some errands.
Enough of that shiit though - had a meal and went - Fvckit! CHEST DAY

Havent put in a proper one of these due to that nagging elbow, so since it was feeling pretty good I went for hypertrophy but no Isolated tricep work so as not to irritate it enough to cause Inflammation.

84 kg x 10
84 kg x 9 - pushed and failed :up:

Flat Bench

Straight to the Flat OH DB Press
Only 30Kg for this - but threw extra sets.
30 kg x 12
30 kg x 12
30 kg x 12
30 kg x 12
30 kg x 12

Weighed myself post workout
14 stone 9lb so 93.4 kg

12.1% bodyfat according to electrolysis

so technically Ive lost a kilo of fat and gained 3 kilo of muscle.

Thats picked up 3pounds of muscle a month Badazz mofo!!

"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.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Wow yeah holy sh1t lol, I think I'm eating between 3000-3500 now (depends on the day), and I'm definitely not losing weight. From January til now I think I may have lost 10 lbs total (was 235, now 225), but I've lost a significant amount from my body fat %, and gained a lot of muscle.

Good job stiggy :up:

Bench day!!

Been looking forward to a heavy bench day for a while now.

4 x 119 kg(full stack on the chest press machine, just a feel good start ;))****Gainzzz


up to the bench - there was a lad already on it, so I joined him - he was struggling to lift the smallest weights though, so my planned go for a new 1 rm was cut loose.

anyway

120kg x 3
120kg x 3***Gainz(second set is gainzz)
120kg x 1 (the lad clearly had no clue about spotting and snatched the bar and pulled as soonb as I started to struggle - I had to have a word and explain how to spot cos this kid was stealing my gainzzz :box:)

Dropped to 110kg for 3 sets of 5 - 6 - had to keep shking my head at the kid - dont snatch the ****ing thing - use two fingers each hand and youll probably be taking like 10kg off the rep and I can finish the set!!! :mad:

down to 100kg for 1 set 7 and one set 6

dropped to 90 till fail (7-8 cant remember)
80kg for 10
70 kg for 12
60kg for 12 - 15 i think

then decline only light just did about 5 sets light here varied weights up and down each set, just to play the muscles a bit.

Cable fly - decline 19.3 kg each side 1 set 7 - failed 8th so
3 sets with 17 kg each side followed:)

then shoulders rear delt fly decline for 4 sets, the flat for 3 sets then incline fro 3 sets

oh press 1 set 8 on 60 kg

goodmornings and lateral raises to finish.


****ing picke dup a coffee directly after and my arms were so weak they were shaking, and i sspilled a load of it :D:D:D:crackup:

Good job. There's nothing more annoying than an overzealous spotter i.e. racking the bar for you at the first sign of struggle. Whenever I lift with someone I've never lifted with before, and they spot me, I make it a clear point before I do my set, that they should ONLY help if I stall and start going back down, and even then, guide the bar up instead of grabbing it.

Just wondering, do you like a lift off or no? I don't.

they lift it off - it feels like theyre stealing from me. THATS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE WHOLE WORKOUT YOU ****ING *******!!!!

2 fingers, thats all i ask for :mad:

Thats how it feels anyway :(

Back day just done - nothing special, kept it kinda light and was outta there in about 45 minutes
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
