“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Then after my workout they go back to looking like I barely workout

And yes, I eat healthy and do cardio, so what's the problem?
 

"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.

You train too much volume, I'd say.
So you get the pump afterwards, but you do too much.
What's your routine like now?
Try training with lower reps.
Take a week off.

Basically you don't have much muscle...how much do you weigh (height as well). After your workout you have a pump, that's why your muscles look better. What's your routine?

I'm about 6'2"-6'3" and 170 lbs.

I usually do chest/triceps one day, legs/shoulders the next, and then back/biceps another day, and I do abs/core, swimming (10 laps), about ten minutes of basketball, and five minutes post-workout treadmill cardio all three days

I also do outdoor running about two or three times a week (2 or 3 miles)

I do 6-8 reps of chest/shoulder workouts, about 8 reps of arms and back, and 10-12 of legs

I sometimes do my shoulders alone because I want them to be the biggest (not sure if this is the best idea)

as MrS and Shaun have said, you have a pump after your workout which makes them look good, but they're just full of fluid which goes away a few hours later.

your workout split is fine, but choose a couple of exercises for each muscle group and go as heavy as possible in a moderate rep range for the compounds (deadlifts, squats, rows, overhead press etc) and higher for stuff like curls and laterals.

cut back on the running, feed your gains (and not with chicken breast and brown rice either) and check in six months, I bet your muscles will look good all the time. :)
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

What do you mean by feed your gains (and not w/ chicken)?? Feed my gains with eggs/protein shakes then?

And I have a little bit of a belly left, so I'm not sure if cutting back on the running is a great idea.

Alex just means eat lots of food, including lots of protein, but don't just stick to clean food like chicken. So go for beef, eggs etc..

Well you can cut a bit of fat whilst gaining muscle+strength...See The Vault

Until you are up to around 200 pounds at 6' 3" you probably won't look that muscular. I'm 6' 5" 190 and I can lift as much as some of the bigger guys in my gym, but you can't tell because I don't have the mass. I read somewhere that you have to put on 20-30 pounds of muscle to see 1 inch gains on your biceps. So it will just take some time and persistence to see the results of your work.

^what he said

*Also consider taking supps if not already to maximize potential (creatine for one) and get your sleep in.

I doubt you have any sort of belly at 170lbs at 6'3". I'd concentrate on muscling up for now.

You won't get fat if you do it right.

Shaun - eggs and beef are not 'unclean'. What they should be called, if anything, is 'anabolic' .. chicken breast is anything but anabolic.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

haha, I do have a belly, no lies, but that's pretty much where the majority of noticeable fat on my body is, I guess you can't really notice when I'm clothed but you can see some fat when I'm shirtless
