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.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
The **** do you know ? He isn't grossly fat just a tad overweight if he goes super strict lifts heavy and hard, does cardio and actually does a proper cut without giving up over the next 8-12 weeks. Then yes he can have a so called 6 pack in that time, it just depends on how badly he wants it.hamishmarshal999 said:I don't think you can make six pack in 2 month because you need to do a lot of struggle. You should avoid to drink alcohol completely.
Please tell me that isn't your squat rack...Get yourself into a proper gym.BeDJ said:So today I learned that you need to have a caloric deficit to lost fat. That means alcohol has to go. No more drunk sex with Extenze pills anymore. I'm okay with that. Doing the 5x5 StrongLifts because it focuses on my core. I made my own squat rack today, what you guys think?

I agree with everything in this post.Espi said:This. ^^^
Pay the per monthly fee for a gym. You're gonna hurt yourself with that squat contraption.
Do you have 3 plates on one side and 2 on the other????
I like your persistence but don't compromise safety.
A caloric deficit can be accomplished with or without alcohol.
Know how many calories you have to take in per day and stick to it. On weekends I like to drink a few so I adjust my calories.
MODERATION.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
I know, I wiped it down after.Epimanes said:Man... That mirror is filthy lol.
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.

Thanks buddy! I'm getting a lot more attraction from grandma cougars now than I get from fatties! I'm glad to be an inspiration to everyone!!!!ArcBound said:You still have some love handles but that's to be expected with 1500 over maintenance..I love the progress from the first picture to the current one, though not all the fat is gone, I could see the V shape starting to form and you don't look so blocky anymore.
Your Squat rack is LOL. Keep up the work and please don't kill yourself on that squat rack.
This is most bro workout I've ever encounteredBeDJ said:I've been working out everyday on a new lifting program. It mainly depends on the weather and my outfit. For example, the past 2 days I have been working out chest since it was hot and I wear V-necks. Tomorrow and Friday will be arms since I will most likely be wearing a slim fitted dress shirt both days. I go to the beach often on weekends so I reserve Saturday and Sunday for abs so they are more defined shirtless. Sometimes, I split that with a leg day or both days on legs. It depends on the activities I do on the beach.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
