Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
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.
Well the morning is the only time you should have an empty stomachZerix said:Any time of day? I read that it's good in the morning when you first wake up and before you eat, to do some low-intensity cardio, but that's about it.
Right. I'll assume he meant the morning-cardio then.wolf116 said:Well the morning is the only time you should have an empty stomach
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.
What is an example of Morning Cardio? I thought it was a good idea to always eat something before working out...or is this more along the lines of running/walking or something before you eat breakfast, then going to the gym a little later.Quiksilver said:Morning cardio + empty stomach has been proven to be 3x more effective at burning fat than done at another time in the day.
Quiksilver said:Example:
-45 minutes on a treadmill, fast walk(4-5), at a 5.0% incline.
-30 minutes on an eliptical, moderate pace, moderate intensity
-30 minutes on a rowing machine, moderate pace, light intensity
-45 minute bike ride
If you're up above 30 minutes, keep the intensity low(no sprints, no running).
