"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.

I've thought about joining the marines before, and found this website I while back. Anyway, today is workout day, this is a 5 day workout, school starts in about 10 days, and I'm skinny as can be.

The downside is that some of this I can't do because I don't have an incline bench or bar for chinups/pullups, etc. I also only have one "heavy weight" dumbbell, which I could turn into two by reducing weight but I know that wouldn't be optimal. So what do you think of this workout?

P.S: I know I won't get big in 5 days but I think this would be a good start.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Fourteen years old... No offence mate, but you should be out enjoying your teenage years, not spending time on this forum. Up to you, though.

social leaper:maybe though I personally believe the body can handle working the abs everyday (well not every day, but consecutively). I mean US marines do cardio everyday except for sunday I believe and their in tip top shape. Plus I used to do cardio every day (not as intense as it could have been) but you get the point

Stryker: yeah I try to get out of the house more now instead of staying inside by myself listening to music and playing video games like I usually do.

They can handle it because they've done years of conditioning.
Honestly, this workout looks like this guy just threw to together as many exercises as he could think of and is using ridiculous rep ranges. Join a gym with a squat rack, do starting strength or Stronglifts. They'll be far more beneficial.
 

"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.

A 5-day workout will do absolutely nothing, especially if you are already skinny. This is not a workout that is made for gaining muscle, and this is not any sort of official Marine workout. This is just something that the guy threw together.
