"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Is there anything wrong w/ consuming raw eggs w/ protein shake? I just remember someone saying a long time ago that raw eggs weren't good for you. Just figured I would ask. Thanks.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I prefer to eat them raw too, mostly because cooking them stinks up my apartment to hell, even hard-boiling them.

You do it whenever you'd normally take protein. And yeah, you just drink it down. Don't chew!
 

"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.

WBA says raw eggs are more anabolic that regular eggs.

I have paranoia issues with salmonella so this is how I prepare em:

bring small amount of water to boil. Turn off heat and crack eggs into to water. Stir. Put in freezer for faster cooling. Enjoy.

Organic eggs supposedly are salmonella free due to the ultra-pasteurization process they need to go through.
Eh?

You guys actually drink the eggs without mixing it with anything? If I tried to do that I'd probably throw up.
No they blend them into their shake. No taste.

2 days of spewing from both ends. The gains are worth the small risk. Raw eggs are the best diet thing that I could actually see results from. I'm on 24 a day.

raw (liquid) will certainly hit your system faster, particularly if you're taking them post-workout.

cooked is supposedly more bioavailable (you get more protein out of each egg).

WBA claims that raw eggs are more anabolic.

salmonella sucks, but i've never gotten it from raw eggs, only cross-contamination or food left out too long.

I use to eat my eggs raw, I even posted about it, but now I prefer to cook them.

I talk with my co-workers (all certified trainers who have been in the biz for years) about alot of the nutrition topics mentioned here and I have a totally different view about everything on these forums.

raw (liquid) will certainly hit your system faster, particularly if you're taking them post-workout.
much easier/better to have a whey isolate supplement.

it worked before anyone figured out how to isolate whey, and it's still worthy in a pinch. but, granted, that it comes with fat you'd rather avoid postworkout.

i'm sure your certified trainer friends have different opinions. that's the beauty of opinions -- everyone has one.

Yeah, man. Salmonella comes from filthy cages and filthier hens. Since organic eggs come from hens that are treated much better and live a far cleaner lifestyle, the risk of salmonella is almost nil.
I understand that, but that's not ultra-pasteurisation. You can't pasteurise an egg in its shell without cooking it. But yeah, I only eat organic eggs raw.
