"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Question about cardio
- Thread starter Pakwah
- Start date
"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.

Dude, just look up High Intensity Interval Training.
Its a type of cardio where you only have to put in 16 minutes a day I think four days out of the week and you're good to go.
No long ass numbing hours on an exercise bike or marathon running races needed.
HIIT takes good conditioning to do though and for a guy in average shape it will probably take you a month or so to work up to doing the 16 minute cycle of it.
Basically it consists of doing moderate paced exercise for a minute and a half and then the next minute and a half or whatever you go as fast and hard as you can with the running or cycling and then basically repeat the cycle until you reach 16 minutes.
Check out the online sites about it for the exact correct instructions on how to do it properly.
I think they don't recommend more than a four minute cycle for a beginner.

Doing some boxing incorporating HIIT is great, it's fun, raises heart rate quick, and you don't have to do it that often.
If you are about working out the heart and reducing weight lost, crank up the carbs before a cardio workout. This means it'll take longer for the body to burn up the glycogen as a fuel, which equals body taking longer to burn fat, protein etc... All the meanwhile you're still getting a fantastic workout for your heart.
