"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.

This summer I am going to be working in research at my University. As part of the compensation package, my room and food are paid for. I can eat at the University food court and in the dorms. I need to make sure I select the right foods to meet my summer goals. I do have access to a good fitness center with lots of free weight stuff. I will be lifting 2 or 3 times a week.

I am 6'0 and currently about 185 lbs. I lifted in high school and had good results in the upper body. I've lifted on and off since then but I would like to lose about 10 or 15 pounds of fat and put on some muscle mass. I'd really like to get good definition in my chest and arms and get rid of the fat on my belly and the love handles. I know diet is going to play a big part in that.

So what foods should I be eating? This is your typical college dining service. Food isn't all that great but it's edible.
I need to figure out specific things I should eat and what I should stay away from.

What nutritional supplements should I be taking to help add muscle mass? I've looked at the stickies; I'll take another look in a minute. Where do you get this stuff? GNC?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Some people really like this Atkins diet out there. I never diet, but have heard good things about it but some people just don't like it. Others recommended a book called Body for Life as really excellent too.

Read the cutting guide and do a search on cutting or cutting diets. Good luck.
