"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

It's been 1 week.

My BF went from 17.1% to 16.3% and it feels great!

btw, here's a tip. Don't like check your %BF and even weight everyday unless you're like...obsessive compulsive. It will feel like you're making no progress but weekly checks feel awesome!
 

"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.

Cool. What is your routine?

I like to check mine everyday just because I like to graph it and see results. OK, I'm a dork :)

Oh graphing is a good idea. I do my weight daily, but %BF weekly and my height monthly. Let me drag up my routine one second.

Full Body Workout 1
(weeks 1-6)

Tuesday - Friday - Sunday

Crunches 2x20
Leg Curls 2x12
DB-Bench Press 2x12
Lat Pulldowns 2x12
DB-Shoulder Press 2x12
DB-Tricep Overhead Extensions 2x12
DB-Curls 2x12
DB-Standing Calf Raises 2x15-20

Cardio 30 min. (elliptical/treadmill/bike/tennis)

I usually use 25-30 lb dumbbells for my exercises and maybe 50-60 lbs for the pulldowns/leg curls.

Yes, I know that is weak, but I am a noob and I'm getting better. :)

I'm going to graph it. Good idea mate! :up:

I read on BB.com that newbies should do fullbody workouts. I do a fullbody workout 3 days a week, with 1 day rest in between and 2 days somewhere in there.

Basically, they said this is the most basic way and it is better to do this at first than to do splits.

Before this, I had a 3 day split, but I was seeing little progress so I'm doing this and I think it is working for me.

Oh btw, I do cardio too. I used to be able to run for 5 min and friggin feel winded on the treadmill set at 5.0 mph (max...the thing is old).

Now I can run a good 10-15 min without stopping and I don't feel super winded either.
 

"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.

So since I'm not seeing big gains, and I'm 14, I should do all that on 1 day 3 days a week?
