Just wanted to give props here to Stronglifts for all the wonderful advice hes been giving here.Its always nice having some new experienced people here posting. (Even though we may disagree on some stuff we generally preach the samething ..Eat, Lift, Sleep) This forum obviously doesn't compare with Ironaddicts, Intensemuscle, T-nation, and the likes. But the quality of information here is really improving due to people on this forum learning more/seeing the light and with the help of more experienced people posting/ clearing up confusion.
"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.
Thanks Stronglifts

"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.

Glad you like my posts.
We will never agree on everything. Some don't like low carb diets, some only like high carb diets. Some take sups, some not, whatever.
The fact is, and that's what all succesful athletes have in common, we claim the same basic rules:
* Lift hard
* Lift smart
* Fix your diet
* Persist
* Live a healthier lifestyle
The rest (supplements, what kind of diet,...) is tuning. Too many pay attention to the details vs. the bigger picture.
On this board:
Sosuave was my red pill some years ago, made me understand lots of things in life. This is why this board makes part of the forums I contribute to.

Stornglifts, your blog is great too.
Actually, I have posted there on asking about one of the lifts and you answered my question's and your video demonstrations are excellent too very,very helpful.
Also, the glute exercises have made me more limber and the stiffness is gone now but I am going to see how it goes after my next mowing. I have been taking joint supplements as well which now going on two months but I believe the combination of the two has unlocked me but I believe the glute exercises was key and if I can wean myself off the supplements and still be limber that would save me bucks an added bonus but I'll have to see.
It's amazing how one excercise can make that much of a difference and to know now I had sleeping glutes so actually my butt had been alsleep lol!!

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
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.

Agreed - I've yet to find a post of Stronglifts' that I disagree with. His nutritional ideas are awesome and his training routines are brilliant too. Definitely an asset to this and any other board!

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
