"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.

"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.

A common misconception many people have is that in order to get great abs all they need to do is sit-ups...training your abs will make them stronger BUT in order for you to see them...you have to lose fat...therefore, you have to do cardio....no way around it man...run for 20 minutes a day...6 times a week...and get on a good diet....and you will see your rock hard abs before you know it....good luck to you...

Crunches will build your abs not help you lose fat. To lose fat you must go on a diet that creates a calorie deficit meaning you burn more calories daily than you consume, I would also recommend some HIIT cardio 4 times per week.

Like my bro str8flexed from bb.com says "Ab's are made in the kitchen."

hey newbie, whats your nick on bbing.com's forum?

I agree with the above said that diet and cardio are the key to having abdominals. You may want to look into Lipoderm-Y or Absolved by avantlabs...i used lipoderm precontest with good results. Suggest you look into it. www.avantlabs.com

Note: for the lipoderm to work, you MUST be in a caloric deficit or else the fat will redeposit itself again. Lipoderm is only used to mobilize fat into the blood stream, not burn it.

The thing is i work and i wake up at 8.00 and leave work at 18.00., then i go home have something to eat then at 19.30 i go to the gym to workout and arrive home at 22.00. I wonder if i can go running after having dinner, let's say, at 23.00 or 23.00.

What do you guys say??
 

"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.

The best time to do cardio is on an empty stomach. The reason why is because there is no food in your stomach and it will start to burn fat for fuel. If you run after you have eaten your body will use the glucose in your blood stream from the food for energy and will never get to the fat.

Also, really you should do cardio 3-4 times a week and lift some weights. this is because if you do to much cardio your body will also start to eat up lean muscle which is bad because lean muscle is what burns off the fat.

You workout/lift different for fatloss than you do to get bigger.

as it was said, abs are made in the kitchen not in the gym. you can have the strongest abs in the world but if you have a layer of fat on them they wont show. America is hung up on a quick fix and spot training which is all BS. Your body doesn't loose weight that way. It doesn't loose it off your azz just because you spend 45 minutes a day on a stairmaster. Getting in shape is hard, trust me i know, if it was easy, everyone would look great.

Read this post and this article in their entirety http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=99420
http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/satter2.htm

They discuss the whole "cardio on an empty stomach" topic. Bottom line is that cortisol levels are high in the morning after a state of fasting ... throw in some cardio... and if muscle is what you want to lose, then this will get the job done. If you think protein will counteract the cortisol then im sorry to inform you that protein does little to counteract cortisol. Insulin is the one that does the suppressing of cortisol.

So basically i need a diet to lose weight right?, despite of working out. What diet should i follow to lose the fat around my waist and stomach? What kind of food should i eat? im really lost here guys, because i work and at lunch i dont have time to go home and prepare something, all i have around here is fast food, mac donalds, pizza hut, etc. I also have a supermarket but i dont know what to buy.

Vegetables??

Fruits??

meat? (what kinds of meat)

fish?? ( which types of fish)

Should i take out carbs from my diet for the moment??
I read that carbs are if you workout a lot. I do workout a lot but i need to lose some localized fat also. Im not fat at all, just in some localized specific areas which i mentioned before


Thanks
 

"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.

You cant localise fat loss, it is synthesised from all over your body,
You have no control where it is lost from, let your body decide, it will do a better job anyway,
get your shoes on and "run forest run"
