"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.

I was 115lbs yep lol

Now I am about 140lbs...still got abs so about 10% bodyfat.

I feel as skinny as always anyway.

So whats 5'10 150lbs like? how about 160lbs.

I am genetically ecto fast metabolism my body doesnt wanna gain weight. I have to eat loads all day long and I hate eating.

So I doubt ill get to 160 lean anytime soon and it will be hard to maintain.

is 5'10 150lbs still skinny. Aint bradd Pitt 5'11 155lbs in fight club?

My arms were 10 inches now they are near 12.5 flexed. I hope 14 looks ok and possible 14s at 150lbs
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I was 140 at 5'8'' and skinny as ****. Now I'm 165 and I think I'm too heavy. 155 is right for me you just gotta push it to the limit and see how it looks!
 

"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.

Seriously, who cares???

There are many factors to consider when considering the ideal weight apart from height including; bone density, fluid retention, and internal body fat, just to name a few. Your ideal weight is not going to be the same as the next persons.

Always go by what you see in the mirror (well ideally go by pictures as the mirror can be decievingly flattening), use weight only as a ROUGH (read again: ROUGH) guide to indicate wether you are gaining / burning.

I'm 187 at 5'8" w/ a 32" waist. I still wanna get bigger... 210 would be nice as long as my body composition stays optimal for the bulking season (hopefully around 12%).

As Jax said, weight doesn't really mean a whole helluva lot by itself for individuals who are training purely for aesthetics. Its a different story if you're training to compete in something w/ weight classes, but otherwise who cares? As long as you look and feel good, and you're strong and lean you're doing fine. I was 165 at my aesthetic peak, and I would definitely NOT like to be like that again as I know I'll look way better next year when I'm cut down for my comp.

Once again, weight means nothing unless you take into account body composition and overall appearance and health.
 

"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.

220lbs for your height is actually perfect. I'm 6' 4" and going for ~260lbs.

Yeah, 220 pounds is a good weight for 5'10...

Are we being serious here? Layne Norton is a lean 220 pounds in the off season at 5'10. Layne ****ing Norton. Let's not be extreme here people.

I'm with cuzza here.... 220 sounds insane to me at 5'10". I'm currently 5'10" 175 at 14-15% BF. I'm trying to get down to 10-12% BF and get up to about 180 after gaining more muscle. I can't imagine an additional 30 lbs of muscle, especially when the OP is at 140 and struggling to reach 160.

The answer is easy: it depends. Going for looks, athleticism? I am 5'10" and my ideal would be 180-190 lean. Most professionals in the sport I play ( hockey) fall within this range. There is a point of diminishing returns for someone of my height and gaining too much weight - you lose speed/ agility. However, this comes down to my specific situation. Yours won't be the same, so you really have to set the bar for yourself.

180 is a healthy weight which will get you attention from girls. That much I can promise you. Even at 180, one can always do better.
 

"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.

Somewhere north of 200. Men these days seem to be either fat or tiny. No one gives a sh1t about your six pack when you are 150 lbs.

"No matter what your body fat is. You should weigh at least 1kg for each cm above 1m. Anything less you’ll always look skinny. Some goal weights depending on your height:

1m70/5″7″ at least 70kg/154lbs
1m75/5″9″ at least 75kg/165lbs
1m80/5″11″ at least 80kg/176lbs
1m85/6″1″ at least 85kg/187lbs
1m90/6″3″ at least 90kg/200lbs

Note that these aren’t ideal weights but minima. If you want to weigh more, go for it. Best is to aim for 10lbs/5kg more to make sure. As always: age & gender are irrelevant, GOMAD works for everyone."
