"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've lifted on and off for years now. I'm a hardgainer. Always wanting to gain weight, muscle not fat, up to 205 like Pook in his post addressing being skinny. Only now am I really willing to put the effort and time in. I know. Should have wised up before this, but as they say. Better late, then never. The diet is settled and all good. The only problem I have facing me now is what workout to follow.

Should I follow the one from SkinnyGuy.net as Pook did. Or should I follow a more traditional workout of multiple sets of heavy weight (reps between 6-8) using compound exercises??????

I'm asking anyone who has had experience with this program to please add in. I'm seriously debating the two because I don't want to feel later that my time was wasted and I should have gone with the other one.

Thanks.

P.S.-More traditional workout looks like this:
Monday - Back
Tuesday - Chest
Thursday - Legs
Friday - Shoulders, Triceps, Biceps
 

"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.
