"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.

not telling :P
Ok i posted earlier asking what i needed to work out at home etc and you said all i really need is a weight set and squat rack however my parents feel that this is porbably dangerous and they dont want me to kill myself and i appreciate my parents point of view, they showed me a 'multi gym' in argos. I'm not very familiar with these and want to ask what is your opinion on these, are they good for building mass efficiently? Can they do all the excercises needed for a full body workout?

For more details on the multi gym i wish to purchase here it is http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3354193.htm

Thanks!
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Get a power rack along with the bench and weights.

Power Racks were built to keep you safe - mine saves my life every time I workout! :p

Yeah. Machines is never a substitute. It's just arguing for a week until they say yes. =)
 

"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.

Your muscles don't know the difference between machines and free weights. I wouldn't just use all free weights or all machines. Variety is key.

It depend on the way you look at it... machines will use much less muscles than free weights. I see no problem using only free weights as long as you change the exercises around. When it boils down to it, machines ****ing sucks. :up: I only use them for calves raises. Show me a machine which is better than the equivalent free weight exercise.
