"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.

should i cut my fat or should i bulk up??? plz help me cuz i really dont know what to do... im a newbie so i dont know anything about this - only read few threads. so: i cant see my six-pack (and i really whant to so i need to cut my fat) but still i can see my ribs when i breathe deep and i can see my chest bones always so that means..? plz help... i'm 15 soon, so is it normal not to have strong chest cuz i do all sort of workouts (75 crunches 75 pushups in a row and that stuff are no problem to me) i know i should go to gym to increase my muscle mass and i probably will (even if i dont whant to) so if it is normal not to have strong chest with so much workout in my age? i should probably cut the fat if its normal, right?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

if you're just starting out, lose ALL the fat first and get down to 8% bodyfat.

then from there, start a clean bulk. for precise numbers, use somewhere inbetween diesel's cutting and bulking guides.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

id go down to 10% man, to me 14% is too high to start a bulk on. 14% is what you should be after your bulk is done.

Well, I have already started bulking. I have gained about 20 lbs in the last 4 months. But, i have gone up from about 17/18 % bf to about 19/20% bf.

Sounds like you are saying I should drop to 10% before bulking again.

On another note, how accurate are those body fat scales anyway. I have a 5 yr old tanita body fat scale that i am using. I am wondering if that is giving me the right reading.

Ok so where can I find those bf tests <question mark> So basically what you're saying, is that I should first cut to 10 % of bf then bulk up to 14%, right <question mark>

One more thing, when I'm bulking up I need to constantly put more and more wight on my muscles so they could grow, could I just take a bottle of 10l of water and do crunches with her on me <question mark> I mean that would add 10 kg on my weight so my muscles would need to work more <fullstop>

p.s.
:rolleyes: Hope you like my fullstopes now <fullstop> :p
