Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

I've weighted in the evening, about 4 hours after workout and then again in the morning as I always do. The difference was in the morning I lost 2.5 lbs of muscle.


Is there anyway to prevent this muscle loss?


Now, my program is targeted at loosing weight and body fat, which Im able to do well. I'm working with understanding that I'll loose some muscle as part of process, I have no problems there. My weight lifting, cardio, and diet is so that I metabolize as much as possible. In 2 months my muscle mass stayed pretty much unchanged, fluctuating up and down, up after workout, and down the day after, when I'm about to begin my next round 48 hours later I have pretty much same amounts of muscle, BUT my muscle tone is improving. I've been able to loose 6% body fat, and some 30 or so lbs.


Besides the diet, is there anything else I can change that will help me build muscle. Does glycogen or creatine gives me what I want? If I don't loose that build up muscle, I should be able to have more of it, which will increase my metabolism even more.
 

"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.

My scale shows muscle mass along with body water %. Under MM it showed that I lost 2.5 lbs. Is it possible?

Everyone's weight fluctuates throughout the day.

Also, how can a scale possibly accurately tell you your muscle mass? It can't.

Calm down.

Muscle/fat/water scales are **** unless you get tested in a lab. Trust me, you're not losing muscle.
 

"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.
