Had a friend come over and she was doing her morning stretches. And ended up doing a handstand, just posted for fun. I got tons of likes on the story, messages and, a few girls I’ve been talking to reached out more when I posted other stories. (Posted photo of one liking my stories) Meeting up with a Ukrainian woman on Monday (Next 3 photos) and she saw these and when I asked her to hang out she gave me her full availability for the next 3 days with times. Pre-selection is so powerful. Still have the trip this coming Wednesday and hoping to get more photos showing pre selection with the girls I’m taking as well. This program is working for me and I no longer have to go on stupid dating apps.. to meet women and the women I’m meeting now are much better looking.

@Ayo A that’s right Brain Morris
Intro
Hi, I’m Santosh. I live in NYC right now and moved here after working a crappy job in PA for a few years post college. I came across Michael Sartains podcasts and subsequently discovered the Men of Action group. I wanted to join this community for two reasons: 1. I don’t know what I want to do career wise and am looking for ideas on that front. 2. I know that I am interested in two things: building a social circle here in NYC and making more money. All the other steps in this journey are still up in the air for me right now.
Importance of Fitness
I wish I knew this when I first started working out. Your diet is the most important thing for an Aesthetic physique. My first year of working out I just thought that I can eat whatever as long as I get enough “protein”. I went on a (dirty bulk) for 8months straight from 170lbs - 193lbs. For lunch I would eat Fried chicken with gravy and mashed potatoes or 2 sirloin steaks with mashed potatoes, I would eat 5 burritos from Taco Bell for dinner or a large pizza. Sure I got strong, however not Aesthetic at all and body fat was stupid high. A couple years later I just finished my cleanest bulk from 183lbs - 230lbs I’m currently on 3 weeks of the cut I am now at 217lbs. My body fat is at about 17%. I will get to 10%. 1. Count your Macros. Depending on your body weight you need to know what your maintenance is and judge your physique. If you don’t have abs and that’s your goal then you need to start off at 250-500cal deficit. If you want to put on size then the same in a surplus. 2. Be consistent with a split, an example is the Arnold split: Day 1: Chest, Back, Abs Day 2: Shoulders, Biceps, Triceps, Forearms  Day 3: Legs, Calves, Abs Day 4: Chest, Back, Abs Day 5: Shoulders, Biceps, Triceps, Forearms, Abs  Day 6: Legs, Calves, Abs. This is great for those that want to put on some size if they’re just starting to hit the gym. If you’re more advanced I would look into Charles Glass routines and strategies. 3. Get a training partner. This seems like it’s not necessary but if you’re looking to train to (Absolute) failure, having someone with you will push you further than you’re able to push yourself beyond your limit! I hope this helps some of you gentlemen 🤝

I think you’re right but it also depends on the limiting factor in a persons life. For me, for me it’s sleep. All the clean eating goes to waste on 2 hours of sleep so I would say the most important part of being lean and building muscle is fixing the biggest things you’re failing at first.
Looks, money or social skills?
What’s most underrated for dating and networking: looks, money, or social skills?

Looks aren’t as important when it comes to dating as people think. It’s more about sociability in general. Social skills matter a lot but “social skills” aren’t just about what comes out of your mouth. The non-verbals matter as well. Good advice would say to go record yourself talking to someone, see what you can improve, and create habits which do that. Money is important in that it is a reliable indicator of the person’s desirable qualities. If you just got a million dollars out of nowhere, you’re not just going to become immediately more attractive. It will open up opportunities and what you do with them will matter more. The point is that the person behind the money does not become more attractive by having more money. It’s the traits and characteristics related to getting all that money which do that. Status matters a lot but again it’s because it indicates the kind of person you are. If you sat in your mom’s basement for 10 years then you’ll justifiably have 0 status. People who have status have habits which were more likely to make them popular. Status does make you more noticeable however so you’re more likely to find your match. It’s easier to find someone when thousands or millions of people know who you are. But believe it or not, there are women who’ve dated celebrities and later cheated on them some other, less famous guy.
can be confusing
Last night I met someone on a dating ap & was in her apartment within 30 min. Today i'm talking to a lady i met through social media and she tells me she doesn't understand how a man can think just because they have drinks, that he can touch her at all. I got divorced in 2015 and on one of my first dates i tried to hold a lady's hand and she said I was moving too fast - I think the very next lady I went out with, we had sex in my car... I've found there is no right by or wrong way to date - there is just behavior that works or does not work for you. What attracted me to Michaels content was his articulation of the experiences that i have had - I'm pretty sure i've dated close to 1000 women and right here in this community you do not have to go through that level of volume to get the results you seek - good job engaging in this community just my thoughts on this Sunday evening.

Same experience here. Women are way more likely to respond sexually when you actually go for what you want. You just can’t perfectly know what every woman wants so some will just get bothered by a guy who takes risks
