"She's Out of Your League"

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.

WHats the ideal weight for my height. Right now I am bulking up, and I plan to stop at 152 (currently 137pounds) Then I will begin cutting. What do you guys think?
 

"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.

Sounds good, but don't rely on "ideal weight." It's complete BS. According to it, I'm almost obese, and so are some guys at my gym who are super-cut.

172cm is about 5'8" right? Obviously there are a lot of variables, but I would aim for 160-180 depending on your build etc.

Less than that... for 5'10 it's 156lbs... I'd guess under 150
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Since I am short, I dont want to bulk up to the point where I look short and stocky.

I want to get those lean cut build, so that I can "appear" taller. I am also aiming for <8% body fat.:)

If you're an ectomorph (skinny extremities and limbs, small waist, narrow shoulders), it will take a LARGE amount of weight training to look "bulky and stocky". So don't worry about that too much. Your main focus should actually be the opposite -- 'filling out'.

I am an ectomorph too, and although I work out religiously, I see no need for worrying about getting stocky. I would need to weigh at least 185 to look bulky, in my opinion. I'm 5'8.5" right now, and am shooting for 165-170.

Hey there,
I'm not sure about what the ideal weight fo ryou would be. When I did my medical, I was 143lbs, which I was told was good for someone my height. So if you are around 140 I guess that should be ok.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I am about 1.72cm as well. It isn't necessary to bulk excessively. Marky Marky is a great example of someone in this height range. His weight range is around 160-170lb. Scale weight is very generic, I think it would be fair to say that I am carrying a similar amount of muscle as him. I am not saying I am Marky Mark, just that that is a realistic body at that height to strive for. Just enough so you don't look too barilly in clothes.

It really depends, there is no right or wrong answer. What size your frame is, how dense your bone structure is, how much muscle you have, etc...

I would say probably somewhere between 150 and 180, but I am the same height and look good at 200 lbs because I am broad and muscular. I want to get down to about 185 or do for bodyfat reasons, but I am fine at this weight. Some football players at this height weigh 220 lbs...so it really depends on the amount of muscle you are carrying...
