"She's Out of Your League"

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.

maybe that's a stupid question but i want to know. my body's in a good workout mood in the middle of the day. that's the time when i'm at work of course. i'm considering working out really early in the morning around 5 or 6 am. (the evening time is usually too busy.) i'm wondering are there any dangers because the body's sleepy ? or is there some suggested time to be awake before workout ?
thanks, who knows and shares thoughts
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

As long as you are aware and you do your stretches to avoid injury, it doesn't really matter what time you work out. Generally if you workout early you have more energy throughout the day.

I know some guys on Iron Addicts have complained about working out in the morning and how they aren't as strong in the morning.

I have also read an article by a spinal expert who said you shouldn't workout until a few hours after waking up, as your risk of spinal injury is greater. (Something to do with the fluid leaving your discs/spine).

So the middle of the day or late evening it is!

Does this include running also? Should I not run in the morning?
 

"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.

I remember reading in a couple places that the body is physically strongest 4 and 11 hours after waking.. Something to consider for you.

On the other hand, if you do workouts like 95% of the population then go ahead and do it first thing in the morning. If you're into heavy lifting and are lifting up to and beyond 2x bodyweight, then I'd stick to the afternoon for a number of reasons, of which Quagmire pointed out.

I work out @ 6:15am, about an hour to an hour and a half after waking up. And, yes, I'm well above 2x bw for squats and deads. Whatever, I'm happy with my strength gains, no problems. I think people try to rationalize not working out in the morning cause they are L-A-Z-Y :) I used to work out at night...I can't imagine that now. After a full day's work, weights are the last thing I want to touch. The human body is quite adaptable. You will get used to the time of day you choose to lift as long as you stick with it.
