"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
I haven't spent any money on whey yet. You may not know this but flaxseed oil and vitamins are good for overall health of the body. I want to be healthy and fit not some bodybuilding freak. I am eating REAL food, just look clearly at my diet, chicken, eggs but i also added some pork, beef and tuna so get your facts right buddy.Mad Manic said:

MM is telling you the truth...a little nasty about it maybe...but the truth none-the-less. Your aren't just trying to be fit. You are trying to gain weight, and you do it by eating a lot. Although i think your diet is pretty good, and if you are gaining 4-6 lbs a month from it, then its perfect. Don't change anything. But if you aren't seeing any more than a pound or two a month, you need to change it.gtownjuan said:Today i confirmed my weight,120lbs. My height is 5ft 8. I really wanna bulk up. Is my diet allowing max bulk????
invest in whey immeditately. Get a 5 lb jar and have it before and after lifting. including 3-4 real meals, you will get big in no time. But at your size, like everyone says, there is no room to be picky on little details. Just 2-3 whey shakes and 3-4 real meals will do the trick.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Often beginners aren't able to squat low because they lose their arch (for the above reasons-of course you can't change your torso/limb ratios). In this case you can try box squats or front squats. Then whilst you are doing that you work on flexibility until you are able to get to the lowest depth you can.
So I would try and get a video of you squatting to see whether or not you maintain an arch and to see whether your lower back rounds at the bottom. If so, you will have to do what I mentioned above. I lay out everything to do in JohnnyIrish's log if you need to do it.
Keep it up.

Week 7 Day 1 Workout A
Squats
95@5 there is this guy(he's always says "what you have in limited supply you must you as economically as possible") that points out where my technique is wrong and explains how to do it right. Quagmire911 i have good flexibility, its just that i hold too long when i at the bottom and find it hard to push myself back up. Anyway he started to explain all kinds of scientific theory of how a workout should be structured and how the different must part work and all kinda complicated stuff. Anyway, he says the weights im using is too light and that i can do more(cause i haven't reached failure). So i give it shot.
115@6 (the guys then helps me to perfect my technique)
125@5
135@10 failure @11 (i actually did these much better than the previous sets with even better form, they also weren't that hard for me to do)
I couldn't feel the strength to continue with any more exercises for this day. I will rest my legs for this week(the pain is starting to kick in) and only work my upper body.

Alright seriously thinking of switching to High Intensity Training to failure in one set. This is making more sense that just following a routine that i don't completely understand. HIT i understand and plan to switch to it Friday.
