"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.

Lower Abs

"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.

Lie down, raise your legs up slowly. Then lift them back down, but never let your legs or feet touch the floor. You will feel burn on your lower abs if you keep doing it. You can intensify with ankle weights.

If you're trying to get a visible 6-pack however, you have to do cardio (ex: running) in order to burn the fat and let the muscles show.

Along with leg raises, you can do reverse crunches. Remember though, you MUST have low bodyfat. For most guys, the lower abs are the last thing to come in as you lose fat.

Do crunches in which you do not "curl" up. Keep the spine straight. This forces the lower abs to do more work than the upper pair.

search http://forum.bodybuilding.com for more details. if you're too lazy to use the search function, feel free to post your questions.. lol.
It's more complicated than just blindly saying you can't train part of a muscle.

It's true that the abs are one muscle, and you can't isolate one part of a muscle. However, you CAN work one part of a muscle more than other parts.

Cool that you're posting the link to bodybuilding.com, by the way. I'm a regular poster there.

You have your abs. You have fold lines in your abs which help you bend. Is there abdominal muscle below the 'four pack'? is there any muscle there? Yes. Then there are lower abs. Technically.

However, it's agreed that they hardly do much. It's hard to work definition into it, just a bit more strength. Theres your vague average answer.

True, but then... Basically, most people think they need to work their lower abs when actually, they don't.

It's just that there are more fat in the lower abdominal region that the upper and middle abdominal.

So if they cut, most will find out they really need not work it after all. :)
 

"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.
