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.
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.
Probably. But I've tried plenty of flax meal in my shake. Seems to prevent tihs. Slower absorbtion since flax is full of fiber.simon said:The BCAAs in the whey trigger an insulin response which I guess then leads to you going hypoglycaemic for a while ---> headache.
Yeah, I'm thinking of switching to egg white powder now as well. Iron Addict recommends it over whey now (tho maybe not PWO). The only problem I can imagine is that I'd need to find something to mix up with it, so the shakes have a flavour. Or is there some egg white protein powders that come with flavourings in mate?simon said:Yeah that's one way you can prevent it. I just have a shake with a meal instead of on its own. Making a switch to egg white powder now though.
Yeah some other guys from IA's boards have moved or are moving over to egg protein too. Another problem with egg protein is the higher price. I'll be sticking to whey PWO.shaunuk said:Yeah, I'm thinking of switching to egg white powder now as well. Iron Addict recommends it over whey now (tho maybe not PWO).

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
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.
So you're telling me that if he liked using really light weights, but wanted to pack on some serious mass, that it's okay, because after all, he likes lifting light...blinkwatt said:Dude lift however you want,as long as you like it that's all that matters.

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.
