I have a new job this summer, in which I'll be doing physical labor for about 10 hours a day (landscaping). Will it be unhealthy for me to workout also during the day or should I just count that as my workout?
"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.

"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.

landscapers have huge forearms, but i hardly ever seen buff ones. I've only ever seen buff ones on tv. Should u work out? I'd say so if you wanna get big.

It's not like lifting rocks, but digging holes. Its with an irrigation group, so I'll be digging holes. I figure my triceps will grow a lot, and my shoulders. Im gonna drink 3 protein shakes a day. Ill probably mix some carbs in there too, for energy. Any suggestions?
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
You wont get bigger at all. Long, hard, stenuous labour doesn't do anything except make you more scrawny and endure more. It will be hard to get big and have a physical job, you would have to eat a lot.
You may want to invest in weight gainer/meal replacements to up your calories as much as possible.

yea you will burn a TON of calories. So the key is going to be eating atleast 4,000 calories a day, honestly. Its tough enough gaining muscle/weight when you are just trying to eat every 2-3 hours, almost joblike. With this type of job you will have you will need to eat a ton of calories, but I say if you can do that daily then YOU will decide how well working out goes. You can work out and get big while having a job like you will be having, but it all depends on how you stay with it. It will ne tough, but just look at it like you are looking forward to your workout everyday, it should pass the time better and keep you motivated. Its all a mind game, and the game is tricking your mind into doing what you want it to do.
You should have no worries about your job effecting your muscle growth, unless your job begins to effect your amount of sleep, your diet, or your motivation to get in the gym 4-5 days a week

It'll be pretty damn hard to bulk up while doing that amount of labor.
But why worry about it man? You'll learn a lot about landscaping, and you'll definately keep in shape. You might not be bulked up, but you'll definately be lean and cut (keep on lifting as much as you can still).
After summer is over, start a bulking plan.
I am naturally around 150-160, and I currently am trying to get bigger.
But in this next year, I would like to train for a triatholon, just for the hell of it. I know that my weight lifting is going to change dramatically and so will my body. I'll be going from bulky to a thinner, leaner look. But, it will be cool anyway.
