"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.

Hey guys

Last week, April 2nd, was doing squats and I pulled a muscle at some point.

Took the rest of the week off, no weights, no cardio, no gym period. Had some tightness just over my left knee, sort of the teardrop muscle, don't know what it's called.

Anyways, came back this monday, stretched it and whatnot, didn't feel tight or sore at all, so I moved on to the squat rack.

Doing the pyramid sets, yadd yadda, all is well. Then I get up to 225 and on the 2nd rep, I feel the injury again, so i finish the rep and rack the bar. I did some low intensity, 40 minute cardio afterwards.

What should I be doing to best heal the obvious injury I have as fast as possible? And how long should I expect to be avoiding legs?
 

"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.

At least you didn't dislocate your knee 2 weeks ago like I did. I can't do anything remotely bending my knee beyond a few degrees. Yet it's completely stable to do things like SLDL. But i can't do any form of cardio.

It's just generally pissing me off. You probably don't have to do anything but rest it for a week or two.
