“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.

i am doing some mass weight training to get bigger.


I do intense cardio. I grapple/wrestle and do muay thai. I want to bulk. Will i have to stop these intense cardio sessions in order to bulk?

i am literally shattered after a 2 hour session of grappling/wrestling so alot of calories will be wasted.. Will i not bulk if i continue this?

I am a hardgainer as it is and my body shape is ectomorph.

What must i do?:box:

Very difficult but not impossible. Focus on shorter workouts with an emphasis on heavy weights and compund movement. You're body is being put under a lot of stress, so you need to maximize what you do.

I'm going through the same issue right now. I train MMA at least a couple times a week and lift a couple times too. I've been keeping my size of about 180 lbs at 5'8 but my strength hasn't gone up too much. Not too worried about this because I have good numbers.

Also, be sure to REST..and EAT a lot.

I wouldn't worry too much though. I'm going a 3 month MMA training thing, then I'm gona focus on lifting for a cycle.

MMA is fun and it feels great. You can always cycle them and train in your offseason harder.

Basically the only way your gonna bulk properly, is lift hard and have a high calorie intake (obviously the right calorie intake, high carb and protein diet).
If you immensely train MMA, you're gonna be burning alot of calories, so you won't bulk as fast.

As workerouter said, it can be done, but you'll only grow slower. Although, the perks are instead of puttin on the fat with bulking, because of your intense cardio you'll look leaner as you grow. works for me.
 

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.

You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

the issue with weight gain when doing combat sports is more the CNS strain. you're walking the fine line of overtraining if you try to combine MMA and strength training, and if you do much you'll just go backwards in both pursuits
