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.
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.
Protien farts from whey protein are caused by taking it with carbs or while having carbs in your system, I think they act as a buffer. When I'm cutting I can take whey protein all day long and not fart once, but when bulking, it's on.Originally posted by DJ Wez
for those who say the side effects for whey protein is the farts, farts farts....
wouldn't taking half servings help w/ that?
for instance, instead of taking two servings a day, how about 4 half servings, therefore more stable?
does that help any
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

You're not asking the right question. It isn't about whey really, it's about PROTEIN. Take a look at those stickies at the top of the H&F forum, Diesel recommends anywhere from 1 gram to 2 grams of protein per bodyweight. That means a skinny guy like me (at 150 lbs) needs 150 grams to 300 grams of protein per day!Originally posted by Jimbo2k
all this about WHEY...what if you use WHEY without working out? What will the results be like?

hmm, everyone always tells me WHEY is USELESS without working out, thats why I asked..so if its a supplement for protein, it should be effective even without working out, correct?Originally posted by OddTech

In order to get that much protein, I need to eat hypothetically like 25 eggs (each egg has 6 g of proteins), not to mention I also eat a lot of fat (5 g of fat from the yolk). Still, that's a lot of eggs. The purpose of whey is to provide a low caloried and low fat alternative to supplement our daily protein intake. Yes, we can still get our protein source from natural food, but whey is just more convenient.
Also, people say whey has much higher absorption rate and whatnot. That's not really important. I buy whey because it is cheap and effective in supplementing my daily protein intake. That's it.
that's why you get some whey for before/after and a long term protein for mornings and off-days. I prefer Max Muscle High 5 Protein. It stays in your system for 4+ hours (whey only last 1).Originally posted by Jimbo2k

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Hey would that be something like avant-labs in-rage product? http://www.1fast400.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=17&products_id=447Originally posted by Redg v2.0
Company - bodyQUICKEN
product - cognamine
PROS - this stuff makes me so focused and aware of myself and my surroundings that I feel zenlike. I've bumped my 3rep bench max from 120 to 200 in 8 weeks (I have a mesomorphic body type, plus I've radically revamped my diet and workout routine, so it may not do the same for you). Muscle memory is outstanding! My proficiency on nunchakus has vastly improved, and virtually every other aspect of my training has skyrocketed. Again, I started taking these concurrently with adopting a vegetarian diet, studying some of Tony Robbins nueroassociate conditioning, and adopting a very physical lifestyle, so how much of my total improvement is actually based on this stuff is hard to accurately measure
CONS - $50/bottle, about 120 for three months. Also seems to be very synergistic with stimulants. When taken around the same time as MET-Rx ExtremeDiet FX (caffeine, DP-phenylalanine, L-carnitine, taurine, L-tyrosine, salacilic acid) I felt almost stoned, but more of a zoning in kind of feeling, which wasn't really bad, just intense.

these guys definitely have at least one repeat customer on their hands
Hey where can I find this product, because I really need that super focus in the gym these days with work and school it's hard becuase of stress on me, anyhow...can you relate it to any other product such as GNC brand or something becuase that link you posted is not working.Originally posted by Redg v2.0
enkai, that looks to be more of a host of specific amino acids and CNS stimulants. Cognamine's most important chemicals, at least in imho, are the nootropics, chemicals designed to increase cerebral blood flow and nueral activity. Check out vinpocetine, huperzine A, 2-DMAE, phosphatidylserine, and ciwujia on the web. If you happen to stumble upon something else with the same ensemble of chemicals, please do drop me a line.
