"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.

I'm VERY interested in how some pro athletes workout(mostly NFL players). Examples include: Adrian Peterson, LT, Shawn Merrimam, Reggie Bush, Kobe Bryant, etc. I've tried looking on youtube for some videos but i'm finding zilch. Does anybody know where I can find some information and videos?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Men's health magazine is a pretty good source for this. They'll often have workout plans from professional athletes.

I know off the top of my head that A-Rod always works out at 6AM. And Johnny Damon does his running/jogging up steep hills and mountains.

:down:

Most of those programs are made up.

@TS why do you wanna know? Every pro athlete trains differently, because every pro athlete IS different. Think weaknesses, muscle imbalances etc. Your best bet would be to find some well-known trainers that train pro athletes and ask them.

I'd go with the MMA workouts, more cut and less bulk. Plus the MMA body looks better than a NFL's body in my opinion.
 

"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 for those videos. Notice the heavyweight fighters are the ones lifting weights, even light amounts and high reps. The lighter guys are doing mostly everything but traditional weights.

I tried to look up what bj penn does as a workout, since he kicked Sherk's ass. I found this video:
http://www.mmascraps.com/2008/05/bj-penn-trains-for-his-upcoming-fight.html

It's just running through mountains at high altitude and mat time. In the second video, you can see that those mats are wet with sweat. They roll a lot.

GSP kicked Penn's ass. He does lift a few weights.

Im thinking most here just wanna look good

NFL players and MMA fighters train for what they get paid to do. Speed, strength, endurance etc

I dont really care how fast I run the 40 meter dash. I just wanna look good at the beach .

Bud_2005: Pro athlete's work outs are specialized and tailored for their sport, their abilities and the results *they* want to achieve. Unless you're a clone of one, you shouldn't be trying to use their workout.

For instance, most heavy weights in MMA lift a lot. That doesn't mean that lifting a lot is necessarily the way to go for everyone. Fedor hasn't lifted iron in years, he just does bodyweight and still beats up on people.

If you're a beginner, you should do a basic workout that works for beginners. Once you're past the beginner stage, then you move on. Suddenly jumping on some random pro's workout isn't going to help achieve the best results you can.

Also, you gotta figure what your goal is. NBA players and NFL players have completely different goals when they train, and you wanna know how they all work out. The question is, what do you want to achieve?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
