"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Hey everybody!
As many of you already know, I stopped lifting in June due to a pretty serious incident with my MTB. During the summer, I was too busy with the exams and moving to a new town. Then I went on holiday and when I came back, I noticed I had grown a bit taller, so I decided to stop fooling around with weights in order to see if I become taller.

Anyway, during this period, I've started Thai Boxing at home. Well, it's nothing serious, I train 45-60 minutes a day from Sunday to Thursday (I spend weekends at my girlfriend's in my old town, so I consider them rest days).

I started about a month ago and since then I've gained 5-6 lbs with no visible fat gains. My shoulders look broader too and my legs are definately bigger. Although I've completely stopped lifting, I'm still eating pretty much (mostly milk, I drink 2-3 liters a day).

Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced muscle gains by Thai Boxing, when not a newbie anymore? I mean, if I was at the beginning, it could be very understandable to gain some muscles. But, thanks to weightlifting, I had already gained 20 lbs of mostly muscles in a couple of years.
 

"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.

Yeah, that's normal... you started new type of exercise and your body had to get used to it, which in your case was through slight weight gain... I doubt tho that you'll keep on gaining weight... rather you'll probably stay at the same level or maybe get even more ripped (which will make you look more muscular)... I'd recommend doing some lifting tho for the power/explosiveness...
