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.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
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.

sorry mate, i meant crunches, a bit late in the day for me. 
"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.

cunches, is that anytihng to do with lying down with your legs raised off the floor and trying to sit up or somtihng like that? im not really uptodate with all this stuff.

crunches are,
you get in the same position as sit-ups but you only raise your top body about 20% above the floor instead of going all the way up in situps, also put your hands across your pecks instead of behind your head so it puts the strain on your abs and not your neck,
try it mate, it works the abs a lot harder and brings out your 6 pack a lot better than sit-ups

you will find it's harder to do as much as you can do sit-ups, i could only do about 25 when i first did them but i'm upto 150 a day at the minute

when i do 40 press ups its hard for me so it goes quick...
with situps i find it incredibly boring because its hard but not as hard, you do not need to concentrate at all so i find them increadibly boring to do.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

It's the "I Dream of Jeanie" pose.
Are you doing these situps in sets or just 150 reps from beginning to end? Really, sets of 10-20 reps should be enough to exercise your abs. If you're not feeling the strain, try doing them much slower and/or hold a dumbell as you do.
Oh and yes, your shoulders should no hurt. Make sure you tense your muscles and make sure you know you are using your abs to pull you up when doing situps. A lot of people use the wrong muscles in the gym to do their various exercises, and thus, they make slow gains!

Put some music on.
"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.

Go to skinnyguy.net, click on Mass Tips, then "How to Reveal Your Six-Pack of Abs," or something like that.
you sound like you are doing your sit ups wrong? the reason your neck is sore is probably because your pulling on your neck muscles with your hands behind your head straining your neck, try doing your sit ups with your hands on the side of your head so you dont yank your head forward with each sit up and concentrate on using your abdominals, dont cheat by trying to swing your body up and not using your abs.
I also like to do my sit ups in 125 - 150 sets, I usually do 125 then rest 5 or 10 minutes and do another 125 -150
