“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

First I was a track athlete, and did little lifting.

Then: Started lifting

After lifting for 10 years but ignoring cardio for many of those years, I have decided to do both now.

What would the best compromise between lifting and doing cardio be?

I want to be very strong and built but I also don't want to suck wind when I play sports, or even run a 5-K with a couple of the hot girls I know that run.

So how have you achieved the best compromise?
 

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.

You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

Well when you want to gain muscle, you have to feed your body a little more calories than your Daily Caloric Requirement. These extra calories (CARBOHYDRATES) go to the generation of new muscle. Protein just aids in the rebuilding and healing process. When you do cardio, you burn off calories.

So I would do cardio on the off days when you are not working out--at least 20 minutes. Just make sure you eat enough food to make up for the loss of calories. Cardio is healty for your body.

I have long been skeptical of the whole burning up muscle deal. I guess I became more skeptical after "bulking" and obtaining this small but unpleasant beer belly.

If I can't burn off this small beer belly after hours of working out, I'm not too concerned about losing muscle either!

My hopes are that I have high cardiovascular fitness and high strength, not unlike a decathlon athlete would have to have.

I've seen way to many "bodybuilders" that huff and puff up the stairs!

"Hours of working out" or hours of cardio? Cardio is better at burning calories than lifting weights.

yeah, that huffing and puffing is evident when they're at like... 2-3% bodyfat. You feel like absolute hell when you're that low.

Could be water retention.

You can be 210lbs and still have a way better than average cardio system - just eat a bit more to compensate what the cardio burns :)
