"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.

The one hour max rule

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

These days I do a 3 day split for weights - Legs/Push/Pull - Mon/Wed/Fri
But from Mon-Sat I do a 3km row and a 6 km jog

If its a weight training day then warmup on the air rower for 3km do weights then a 6km jog on the treadmill.
If non weight day then I go down to the rowing club and try get out onto the water and do the 3km row and jog in the evening.

I"m 37 ,180 cm between 86-90 kgs very lean solid shoulders as I can shoulder press more than I can bench. Never was a very strong Bencher.

3 km Row and 6km jog 6 days a week? That's a lot of cardio. What are your goals with this program?

I'm 37 years old 90kgs and have maintained that weight for a good 10 years now, I don't want to get unfit as I've played multiple contact sports since I was 6 years old Rugby/League and some Grid Iron. Done Muay Thai from 16-26. Rowed and done Sailing at an almost professional level from 19-now.

So a very active last 18 years or so right now my goal is to maintain the same level of fitness as I have this absurd goal to Climb Everest before I die. If I ever do manage to do it I'll post up a writeup about it.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

the philosophy we stand by where i come from is if ur doing serious heavy lifting, no more than 35-45 mins a workout

but if you're doin calinsthenics, 2-3 and sometimes 4 hours is fine.. with heavy breaks and chit chat in between.. (ie: think your NYC park workouts)
