"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

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?
 

“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.

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 :)
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
