todays workout (finally)
sparred with dragan for about 30 minutes
1 mile
1000 situps
100 curls with each arm with 30 lbs
200 pushups
I’m trying to implement kino more than I used to. I need to find that fine line between doing it when it doesn’t make sense and doing it when it does make sense in context. The problem is sometimes the context for kino doesn’t happen naturally in conversation, so you have to create that context.
Here is a good example: The HUMAN LIE DETECTOR Routine | SoSuave Discussion Forum
Todays work out for me:
Sat in a computer lab typing up an essay all day and not finishing it.
Had time to eat a cup’noodle when I woke up at 7:30 am, then ate a bagel at 12:00 pm, then a small 1 dollar cheeseburger from Wendy’s at 3:00 pm, and then I’m gonna have free chile and cornbread at a sorority event. I can only afford to spend $3.00 a day on food now.
I’m not working out and I’m eating less than Mahatma Gandhi. I’m afraid I’m gonna lose all of what I gained over summer.
3 BUCKS?!?!?!?! WTF???
Okay maybe 3 bucks is an exaggeration. But I make about $400 every month working at Island’s. I have to throw down at least $200 every month for the portion of the rent my dad is having me pay.
Then every quarter I owe $175 for my portion of fraternity dues (So split up into 3 months thats approximately $60 per month. I also spend about $30 on gas every month (I save a lot because I usually take the bus).
So that leaves $110 for food. $110/ 30 days = approximately $3.66 per day. But sometimes my mom helps me out with money so I have a little bit more to spend.
So I found a new program that might work for me given my busy schedule (I never have time to go to the gym 4 times a week). This is of course not going to be started until next quarter when I can afford to eat 5 meals a day.
Full body workout:
M/W/F: 5x5 Back Squat
5x5 Bench-press
5x5 Deadlift
5x5 Pull-Up (weighted)
5x5 Military Press
I have been told that this kind of workout is well suited for my body type. Let me know what you guys think, as you both know a lot more than I do.
wow that is a really really harsh budget. i dont know how the hell you do that everyday. thats gnarly. that was kinda the same program i was talking about with david last summer that we both wanted to do. just basically your doing all the basics.
i really like that as im sure david will too. i think you should also include dips to hit your triceps. another thing i would do is to switch between doing different squats and deadlifts.
what i mean is on one day you would do a normal back squat but another day you would do front squat or hack squat. same thing for deadlift… romanian deadlift, sumo deadlift. just keep switching it up.
if you do this program you gotta let us know how its going cause im really interested. make sure you include atleast dips though.
david… this weekend in san francisco when dj and i came, dj totally got with that lily girl you liked. i mean dude, if you like her you should have tried to get with her that night, but no. you let dj have her even though you wanted her. what are you gonna do about that?
Ya, I’ll be sure to let you know. But like I said, I probably won’t really start the program until next quarter. And your right, I forgot to incorporate triceps (besides secondary). Your mentioning of DJ made me remember something DJ does really well with girls.
He’s bold as fuck. He does not give a fuck, he will hit on a girl in front of everyone and not make it subtle at all. When I was up in Santa Cruz (the night you weren’t there Perry) there were 2 girls that came back with us (1 of which DJ was going after).
I was sort of flirting with the girl too just to see what would happen (I knew I couldn’t out-compete DJ) and she was actually responding a little. Then we all went to the couch to watch Dane Cook (DJ’s classic move) and the girl sat next to me and David on the couch.
To combat this DJ literally walked over to the girl without saying a word and picked her up and sat her down in his lap on a separate chair. I nearly shit my pants on cue when this happened. I was baffled by how bold that was. Lesson learned: being upfront about your intentions (through actions not just words) can be very successful.
And question: Assuming you did like that girl David, did DJ know you liked her? If so, that’s pretty fucked up of him.
Yeah Emi your fucking gnarley. I dont think I emphisied to DJ about her enough, but it really comes down to this… There are Winners and there are Losers… I did learn alot this trip though and honestly have seen my game improve drasicly for the first time in a long time.
I can feel myself moving in the right direction, all the factors are present, modivation, desire, and a plethora of HB’s to spit game at. Having DJ as a mentor I really think is something I have benifited from the most.
As for the DJ thing I told him Kaley was off limits and he didnt go for her so I resepect that… I should have finished and fucked Kaley while he was in room fucking Lilly, this would have been the most ideal scinario.
This brings me to point 2 of why I train, because there are finishers and there are people like Henry (who cant finish).
And I appologize for my inconsistantsy posting and will try and do so more frequently.
love you guys.
this story is really funny and nasty, but its great. yeah david i dont really remember you saying anything to dj about her in front of me but we cant change the past. i hope to be posting more too. its good. its strange, i know where i want to be with girls and in life but its tough to get there. i know what kind of person i want to be but the hard part is becoming that. test your might
Perry, just keep doing work. Work on improving. You know the path, now walk it.
Perry I enjoy your posts and I do know that we cant do anything about the past so fuck it… I learned from it and thats what matters.
Emi, Mrs. J just gave me a care package with a shit ton of easy mac, hi chew, abba zabba, fruit snacks, protein bars, donughts, and various other muchables. If I could I would give you alot of it. But im starting to relize how valable money and budjeting is (something I really need to work on). If you dont have the funds life can be a bitch and getting women can be alot more difficult. So hang in there big guy your probally learning alot of lessons about working hard that ive never had to learn (not yet). and I honestly envy your work ethic. you understand that in this life we have to do shit we dont want to get to be able to do shit that you do want.
TYM!
test your might (said in a will ferrell tone of voice) emi, the reason i said that and will say that everyday is cause it is supposed to motivate david to not let that happen again and so he can have that fire within him burn even more. dont worry david, it will get even harsher as it goes along so dont sweat it. by the way, dj just totally fucked that girl you liked. you gonna go out there and fuck another girl or what?
thats very true about dj. i dont give him enough credit but he pulls. he fucking pulls. i am 100% sure a lot of it is from looks but he does definetly definetly have game to back it up. hes a good guy to learn from for the most part. there are some things i notice about him that i would change in a second about him to become even more of an Alpha Male but for the most part hes golden. i think djs best quality is his ability to have the conversation to be controlled by him at all times, no matter if he knows the person or not. if i had to take one thing from dj that would be it. a lot of times i pass up thay opprotunity just because i dont want it, dont feel like talking, or dont know to include everyone at the same time.
so another thing… at the party this weekend, i found this to work really well. going up to a girl and saying “i noticed something interesting about you when i first saw you” she will immedietly be hooked. i kinda fucked up by using this line to get a celeb shot in beer pong. after i missed she called me a bitch for missing and for not telling her what was so interesting. there wasnt anything interesting about her so go figure. my recommendations for a good follow up is to keep her hanging a little then tell her that you and i would look great in that corner over there. lol (main joke of the weekend). im actually not sure where you would go after the interesting line. any ideas guys? maybe you could go into the palm reading thing and how the lines on her hand say that deep down shes a sexual girl. thats what ive read about atleast. but most importantly…
i just found this on sosuave. i think of it as the don juan’s state of mind sort of.

There is so much mystery, so much magic to this life that we all miss out on because of our lack of love for ourselves and us being controlled by our minds instead of the other way around…
i really really need to find a passion in life more than anything else, but im not sure how to go about that. i feel like once a find something i really love to do life will make a lot more sense and the pieces in life (pieces = happiness, school, girls) will finally come.
fulfilled life > passion > happiness > flocks of girls
fucking awesome quote from sosuave.
“If men knew all that women think,
they’d be twenty times more daring.” --Alphonse Karr
wow thats a fucking powerful quote, good find Perry. and I feel your struggle to find a passion but I do feel your need to have one and can personaly say that when you have something in your life thats more important than girls, getting girls becomes alot easier.
Nice I’m glad to see I’m not the only one posting now lol. I seriously look forward to checking the base everyday to see what’s up with you guys. I talked to DJ today and he said he used this line at that party to 100% success: “Hey you can come home with me, but only if I find out your a good kisser”. That is fucking brilliant because it combines the apocalypse opener with the concept of making yourself the prize. Obviously these type of lines only work when you have the right inner game. I have been reading up on a lot of inner game shit and have concluded that I’m not quite there yet. I still feel like having a girlfriend is my top priority, and this is totally backwards from how my thinking should go. My biggest problem is lack of ambition. Some people have had in mind what they wanted to do with their life from the beginning.
I was never that type of person. I’m at my 3rd year in fucking college for Christ sake and I haven’t narrowed it down yet. At this rate I am bound to graduate with a general education with nothing that stands out in job applications. If I have advice for either of you, get involved in a bunch of shit and make grades your top priority. I have gotten to the point where I am realizing how much my peers are above me in terms of what is on their resumes. This is scary shit that will not hit you guys till about your third year. I am about to be unleashed into a VERY competitive job market at a point where unemployment is rising. And to top that off I don’t even know what I want to compete for. I am going to make my ambition for this year to strengthen my resume and really get involved in stuff that will apply to my major. Ultimately I need to score an internship, and sadly that might mean I won’t see you guys over the next summer. This would be the ultimate sacrifice, because honestly my time spent with you guys includes some of my best memories.
To bring my last post back to my main point: INNER GAME is the most important thing to improve, and that requires the mind set that girls are not top priority. Like you said Perry, this is easier said than done. But I have had an epiphany that focusing all my energy on girls is counterproductive because A.) It keeps you from obtaining other goals, such as developing a path for a career and B.) It reduces your chances of actually getting girls.
This of course does not mean giving up spitting game to girls at parties and cold approaching, but it is rather attaining a new sense of yourself.
I used something new the other night that was kind of useful (I’m not sure if its effective yet). Go up to a girl at a party (that you know on a first name basis or not at all) and say “I’m making it your job tonight to remind me to/ of __________.” I stumbled upon this when I told Brian Woo that I would go surfing with him the next morning at 10 am.
For my own benefit I went straight up to a girl and said “I’m supposed to get up at 10am tomorrow…I am giving you the responsibility of reminding me of that throughout the night.” She smiled since this was an unusual approach, and this did 3 things: A.)It gave me a risk free/ funny opener B.)It gave me something to tease her about if I saw her again throughout the night: “Hey, your doing a shit job of reminding me. I’m gonna have to give this responsibility to some other cute girl” and C.)Its almost an automatic indication that she is interested in you if she does come up to you later and says “Remember me? I’m supposed to remind you to get up at 10 am”.
But you can make your own variation of this to make it even more effective (perhaps adding cocky/ funny). For example: “I’m making it your job to periodically remind me I’m not in college just to hook up with girls. Can you do that for me?” There’s probably something better, but that’s just off the top of my head.
Dude the world is getting Gnarley. Inner Game is Key. Girls may not be the center of your life but relize that they are a major part of it. You need to understand the ballance between the two. dont think that girls arent worth anything because thats anti productive just as it is if you think girls are everything… just my 2C’s
I like your opener. I feel like we should all share potental openers and closers. becaseue ultimately everyone is differnt and should open and close differntly. also I feel like oprening and closing varies with the girl in question. there is no universal lock.
good articles today, Emi I belive I have been telling you about this book for a while. Its focused on looking good and getting Poon. Just like the superhero program, I feel like this one is a good mach for you.
