"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.

Thanks so much for the help.
 

"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.

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.

OK then mate, start off with 3200 calories, 230g protein. Right now with the diet on the opposite page I think you're getting about 200g. Instead of 5 eggs per day, make it 12. Have your 5 at breakfast and then spread the rest over the day. you can cook them or mix raw eggs into your whey shakes, for example. :)

I was under the understanding that those last sets (1-3 reps) were necessary to ensure 100% IIB muscle fiber involvement and ultimate strengh gains.

3-5 reps = strength development
6-8 reps = power development
9-12 reps = hypertrophy
and here's another couple of "cop-out/bullsh!t/useless terms in lifting circles". :D
