"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I just finished this workout I'm fond of: Gain 10 Pounds of Muscle in 4 Weeks

Granted I didn't actually expect to gain 10 pounds in a month, but I like the 4 day split and needed a new regimen for a month. Now that I'm finished, I'll replace some of the workouts (push-ups instead of dips, decline bench press instead of regular, etc.) and continue.

Also, don't skip legs when trying to add muscle. That's ridiculous.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I had very big gains after half a year. But I was really dedicated, going strong, eating a lot, little experienced (but more than most newcomers), even overtraining myself (which is bad but i got gains anyway, imagine if i didnt overtrain myself).


after that half a year women were staring at me shocked.

however dont expect this quick gains @RichardTheFrog . newcomers dont know much and they arent dedicated, example @bigneil goes year for gym and no little change

How many days per week did you lift? And how long per session?

You've asked this before. The answer is still the same. Compound, multi-joint movements lifted at a relatively heavy intensity, a solid plan of progressive overload, follow up with high rep isolation movements, eat, sleep and repeat. Look into Jim Wendler 5/3/1, Paul Carter Base building, Christian Thibadeau Best damn workout for natties, Josh Bryant powerbuilding, Westside for skinny bastards, etc and find something you think you can stick to.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
