"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

How much do they help if you excercise daily i.e. running, basketball, crunches, some dumbbell lifts for biceps with each arm.

Does the protein from the bars help that much?

How much (or percentage needed per day) protein do humans usually consume each day?
 

"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.

Read the bulking guide.

About 1.5g per lb of body weight is a good median.

Read the bulking guide.

Most protein bars don't have that much protein in them.

Running, crunches, and bi db curls ain't gonna make you big.

Powerbars are really for endurance sports like running or cycling. Like Cheiradawg said, read Diesel's Bulking Guide to learn about adding mass.

i wouldnt waste your money. if you want a real protein bar buy one, but powerbars arent going to make any difference when it comes to muscle growth. eat a lot of food, and toss in a bar/shake when you need it. powerbars have like 8 or 9, maybe 10, g of protein per bar, thats nothing.

Mustang05,

I usually carry around a protein bar with me as an "emergency" food if I'm unable to consume a meal every 3 hours. I'm on the skinnyguy program, too.

powerbars are usually used as meal replacement. Typically lunch or breakfast. although there are better protein bars, powerbars still work. Only for meal replacement though.

Ok powerbars are not used as meal replacement but as snacks. Also you have to consume them between 30 or 45 mnutes either before or after workout. In my experience they do give me a boost but you have to drink tons of water. for your own sake drink tons of water.... and the Protein Plus powerbars have up to 26-28 grams of protein. For a snack that is not bad. Having them handy when the temptation kicks in between something healthy and something unhealthy is also good.
