Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Well, this is my new training journal, I hope you enjoy following it.

I've had a training journal before, but I've always had interruptions just as I was gaining some pace, and as a result I moved slower than I really should've.

I'm now at Uni and there's nothing standing in my way :)

I have the privilege of being trained by EFFORT. My goals are size and strength via eventually working my way up to big squats, bench and deadlifts, hopefully over the next 3 or 4 years.

I hadn't trained properly for 6 weeks due to settling into Uni and my diet's been horrible, so I've lost quite a bit of strength. I currently weigh 147lbs, I was about 152 before Uni started. My maxes at that time were:

Squat, 65kgx3
Rack deadlift, 115kgx3
Bench press, 60kgx3

Overall small numbers at the moment, but I have the dedication to have fun working towards my goals, and a fvcking great trainer.

The current routine is gonna last for the next 6 weeks.

Cheers,
Shaun
 

"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.

Cheers Tom, Quag.

Aye, it's a westside mod :)

There's no interruptions now like there was before (i.e. two weeks out of the gym out of nowhere), so I won't be doing two steps forward and one step back like before. I'm looking forward to it.

It's good to see your training is going REALLY well Quag, it's fun following your lifting :)

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

I'm curious, were the first two squat sets primers for the 20 repper?

:up:

added to training journals thread.

Don't worry about the numbers you have now.. spend your energy on the weight you'll be adding to it next workout.
 

"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.

"Squats, 47.5kgx4, 47.5kgx4, 40kgx20"

Just baffled me slightly. Can you shed any light? 7.5kg drop to add 16reps? What's going on :confused:
