Same boat here man. Love that stuff. I can just take off anywhere with my pack and know that I could survive. Very freeing.

On the topic, any good advice on keeping phone opsec? I pw protect my phone currently. All of my MRP stuff, convos with other females, are on my phone. Also, if she asks why she cant look, any suggestions? I have full access to her phone - i used to snoop but lately I dont anymore. I dont really care to. She never brings it up but I'd like to be prepared.

Awesome, thanks for the tips. I also like the style shirt that you can wear tucked or untucked. I can think of worse things than having to buy some more shirts due to getting too ripped. Good stuff man.

Are those the “easy iron” shirts that you are talking about? If they look nice without ironing, that is a huge plus for me.

Read this post earlier and it pushed me to do a couple more sets at the end of my workout. Cheers bro

I'm currently reading MMSLP and this seems to jive really well with what I'm reading. Curious to see what the MRP vets think, but this seems to make sense to me.

Agreed. Years ago I told PF to go fuck themselves when they replaced their olympic bench, squat rack, heavy freeweights with smith machines and dumb bells for "non-lunks". Their business model just didn't support my goals anymore.

Second this opinion too. The other strong men will push you to get on their level (or better). The sexy, fit women will inspire you too. Their presence is a reminder that you better get your ass in shape if you plan on fucking higher quality women in the future.

Well, I'd probably have to evaluate the options and figure the best way to incorporate the workouts that I need to get done. Locally, I have a couple gyms (YMCA, Golds) that offer childcare during your workouts, but the childcare option is not open 24/7 obviously. That might be an option if it works with your schedule. Ultimately, if I wasn't able to use a commercial gym regularly with the kids, I'd figure out a way to get my work in at home. My plan is to someday have a full home gym in my base…

I was in a similar situation. I left an apt complex which had a gym and I had to decide whether to build up a home gym or join a commercial gym. For me, I decided on a commercial gym based on the cost / benefit. I also find that the environment helps me focus on the task at hand, without distractions like the wife/kid/dog nearby.

The more I learn, the more I realize I knew nothing, haha. Appreciate the schooling from you guys.

Lol, yes this is what I meant. I found a solution that works for me - read it via kindle app. How did your wife react to that? That's hilarious...

I mentioned it prior, but that was the big difference for me. I have always struggled with covert contracts. NMMNG and you guys here have helped me realize and correct that.

I'm very new, so take this with a grain of salt...but it seems like everything went alright. You are asking how to maintain frame and STFU, but you just explained how you did exactly that. It almost sounds like you answered your own question. I may be missing something, so I'll just follow and see what I can learn from the pros here. Edit: shows how much I have to learn. I’ll leave this up as a reminder for those as new as me to STFU

Plus there is a popular co-ed sports league in my town where people typically go out for beers afterwards. Physical exercise, socializing, doing something I love, giving her time to miss me...I feel so stupid for living the way I was living. All these golden opportunities squandered. Time to turn that around.

Already done now, but I agree. You guys have provided a good perspective. Thank you.

Can’t disagree with that. I think that’s how I got myself into this mess, lol. I have no clue how to handle the inevitable questions. I’ve got some reading to do.

I meant overall volume (# of sets) rather than reps per set. The program typically starts with compound lifts, heavy weight but ends with finishers (isolating smaller muscle groups, drop sets, higher volume sets, etc). Don’t worry - I KNOW the important bit is lifting heavy. I just like to follow the bench press with flys, incline bench, triceps pull downs, etc. Speaking of sports, I played in a charity football game last weekend and signed up for a local basketball league just now. Excellent su…

Lol. Shit test incoming...I like that idea but I’m going to give it a little bit more time before I use those tactics. At this point, there is no dread bc I’ve been a lazy bitch, and living in her frame.

Ahh, that makes sense. There’s that 1000 foot rope again.

Not sure I follow what you are saying? Are you referring to fixing the messy house (not a big deal) Or fixing myself? In my reply to you, I meant that I need to fix myself (body, mind, frame) before I can make decisions on which relationships to keep or throw away. I realize that I have a lot to learn. If I misunderstood you, please let me know what you meant.

I’ve done strong lifts before. I love the focus on compound lifts but disliked the low volume. I am on Kris Gethins 12 week trainer (also done this one and had better results than SL) and then I’ll pick something else (I also like Stoppani’s programs). I was an athlete and have spent most of my adult life in good shape but I’ve let myself transform into a dad bod lardass. What is 1 month per year of being beta though? Not sure what you mean there: I agree that the physical is the largest compone…

Were you lifting regularly before you had your T levels checked? I haven’t been tested but feel a change when I lift heavy regularly. I’d be interested in seeing how much my T levels change based on the workouts alone.

If it wasn’t important to me, I wouldn’t care if she did it either. I do agree with you though...if I want it done, I’ll just do it. I’m not at all worried about being on my own - I’m with her because I love her and I want to provide the best upbringing for my son. Divorce isn’t off the table but I think I owe it to myself to fix my own shit and see how it goes first.

I’ll look up the chore wheel and Extreme ownership. The sidebar material will likely take some time, but I’ll have that one on deck. Appreciate the feedback.

Good read and very relevant right now. I must regain control of my ship.

That’s what I’m thinking. I’m still out of shape, I’ve built a history of not living up to my potential and vomiting all over what could have been a great situation. First things first, I need to become a man worth following. Maybe she follows, maybe she doesn’t. I realize that I’ve let this happen (she was a plate in the very beginning and things were great. My own dumbass created this environment).

Those have been problems for me in the past - covert contracts. I am realizing how fucked up I was. Appreciate the feedback.

Definitely a light bulb moment for me, during my reading.

I discovered RP within the last month. I started lifting 5x per week 2 weeks ago. Read most of Rational Male sidebar posts, currently reading NMMNG. Very new still. Things make a lot of sense and I’m angry at myself for being so stupid before. No use crying over spilled milk. I can only improve myself for the future.

She works about 35 hr per week, I work about 50 hr per week. I make about 80% of the family income. She doesn’t tell me that it’s my job, in fact she usually cleans up without prompting - but does a pretty crappy job about keeping it clean. She isn’t always lazy but I find that she often rationalizes spending hours per day watching TV or playing on her phone. The house cleanliness isn’t a disaster but I had decided that I would like to keep our house cleaner and looking nicer. I’m going to just …

Just starting out here. Goals for this week: -Lift 5+ times (Kris Gethin 12 Week Trainer) -Read 1 hour per day (currently: NMMNG) -STFU (a consistent weakness for me thus far) -Initiate sex with more variety (and don't get butthurt if I get a hard no) -Prioritize being the captain for my wife and son -Help son with math homework -Sit at the head of the table -Become more decisive -Lead with actions and by example (remember to STFU)

I'm going to just download the books and read on my phone - the same way I am reading the other sidebar material and reddit posts. Thanks for the perspective guys.

I will likely go this route for now. I prefer hardcopy but this seems like it will be a better option for now.
/r/askMRP02/01/18 04:34 PM

That was my thinking - that my main goal for now should be to improve myself and STFU. If I am reading books in bed that discuss game, PUA, spinning plates, etc...it's likely to at least prompt a discussion. It's likely that I have some work to do to establish frame and change the overall dynamic before approaching those things. Thanks

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
