What is it Like to Lose Your Children?

Friends have lived through the heartbreaking experience of losing one’s children. The problem with men is that we marry for love. Yet the love a man will have for his children will far exceed the love he will have for his wife.

We should marry with one question on our minds, “Will she make a great mother? Would she steal my children from me? How crazy or vindictive would she be during a divorce?”

To our own peril, we care more about romanic love (which wears off after a few years) than compatibility:

All of you people giving advice don’t know what it is like to love a son or daughter more than anything in the world, you don’t know what it is like to wake up in the morning and everyone is still asleep and when your kid wakes up your entire world comes to life and you start cooking breakfast and throwing them up in the air and talking about insects or snakes or whatever else devours their minds.

and then you have all of that love taken from you by some crazy ass bitch.my wife is the devil. I didn’t ruin my life, I am not some fucking apologist pussy that says, “Oh, maybe I shouldn’t have drank so much” or “now i realize that alcohol ruined my life and took away my kids”.

I haven’t been to a bar in 12 years. When my kids wake up, I am already awake. I make breakfast, I wash dishes, I throw them up in the air (at least I used to do all of this). When my wife woke up, I told her how beautiful she was, even tho she isn’t.

That man’s wife cheated on him, falsely accused him of abusing her, and kept the kids. She spends his child support payments at the bar.

Heart breaking.

How to Change Your Life: One Month at a Time

The best advice I ever heard was given to someone else.

An acquaintance was 30 years old and regretting not finishing college. He wanted to earn his degree but thought he was too old.

A wise old man told him, “In two years, you’re going to be 32. You’re either going to be 32 with a degree or without one. Which 32 year old would you rather be?”

Time presses on. Tomorrow you’ll have one less day than you had the day before. In a month, those 30 days are gone forever.

Time is an artificial construct that measures change. We are moving through time. We are changing through time.

Tomorrow you will be a slightly different person than you are today. If you don’t believe me, eat 10,000 calories today. Tomorrow you’ll wake up bloated and feeling sick.

Although we change daily, we don’t realize it because the change is subtle. If you have a good workout today, you won’t notice gains in the morning. Today’s workout won’t be noticed until several months from now.

Since you have no choice but to change, why not direct the change? Why not take control of the change? Why not change for the better?

To make permanent change, you need to develop one new habit (or eliminate one bad habit) at a time. Three or four weeks of daily practice is usually enough time to make the new habit permanent.

A change can be something game-related, or something that applies more broadly to your life. Perhaps you’ll promise to get one new phone number a day – every day, no matter what – for the next 30 days.

Two months ago, I bought this juicer and began juicing. I juiced every day. My broader goal was to eat fruits and vegetables every day.

The change stuck. I now eat several servings of kale, broccoli, carrots, onions, blueberries, bananas, and green superfoods each day. I even started using a raw protein powder and meal replacement to boost my superfood consumption. (I use Garden of Life Raw Meal and Raw Protein. Use this iHerb coupon code to save some cash.)

The change had a positive effect. My skin is clearer and has more sheen. My joints – which have been abused from lifting weights, martial arts, and contact sports – ache much less. My bending knees used to sound like scrunching cellophane. Now I hardly hear any weird sounds.

I have been making a new change ever month.

After juicing I started foam rolling and stretching before every workout. Even when I didn’t have a lot of time to train, I would foam roll and stretch for 10 minutes.

Two months later and the changes have snow balled. I now eat fruits and vegetables each day and also foam roll before every workout. The positive changes are cumulative.

Here is this month’s change: I am not a morning person. I look for every reason to stay in bed. As part of my job, I need to check email first thing in the morning. Yet checking work email often leads to cruising the web.

Two days ago I said, “You cannot look at anything on the Internet in the morning. Check your email. Make sure there aren’t any work emergencies. Then get ready for work.”

I’ve shaved 30 minutes off the time it takes me to get prepared for work. Whether this change will matter remains to be seen. But it’s a change that I will give a chance.

What change will you make?

Lie About Your Age

The nerds at OK Cupid ran the data to answer this age-old question: At what age is a man most desirable? Age 27 is the sweet spot.

Christian Bale was 27 in American Psycho. Arnold Schwarzenneger was 27 during his peak Mr. Olympia run. Jean Claude Van Damme was 27 in Bloodsport.

27 is a great year to be a man. By the time you’re 27, you’ll have outgrown your baby face. Your jaw should be square. You will also have impeccable skin. Gone are the pimples of youth and yet to be seen are the wrinkles of old age.

I’m well beyond 27 and life is still good. But if I could have frozen myself at 27, I would have.

Not every man can say he’s 27. If you’re 22, you probably won’t be able to pass for 27. If you’re 37, you won’t be able to pass for 27.

A 36-year-old man is still highly desired, as is a 22 year old kid. But try putting yourself as close to the sweet spot as possible.

If you’re 22, shoot higher. If you’re 42, shoot lower.

When I tell guys to lie about their age, they all say the same thing, “What if she finds out the truth?” Questions like that are why I could never earn a living being a “dating coach.”

Seriously, guys, that is such a gay ass question that I can’t even handle it.

Are you a bunch of fags? Who cares? Oh my god. Are you going to meet your soul mate? Is she going to break up with you after finding out the truth? Will you have to snuggle you pillow to deal with the heart ache and pain?

Besides, if you fuck a chick right, she won’t care about the earlier lies. Just run this escape tactic:

I have something to tell you.
What is it, babe?
I don’t know if I should tell you, as it would ruin everything.
[Thinking you have weeping AIDS sores and a felony rap sheet for child molestation] It’s OK, babe. It doesn’t matter. Just tell me.

She’ll tell you that all is forgiven. The escape also allows you to share an intimate moment.

What you guys don’t understand about women is hurting you. Women don’t have a firm understanding of truth and falsity. Truth is eternal. Women only understand how they feel in the present moment.

When you confess your lies, she will feel great! “It took a lot of courage to come clean. I feel that we’ve grown closer as a couple. It’s important for you to know that you can tell me anything.”

Lie about your age. And spare me any bullshit about morality. I can assure you that she’s halved her total number of sexual partners. Seduction is deception.

Also, stop asking pussy questions.

You can’t get in trouble if you don’t care.

Fearing getting in trouble with some woman reveals that you care too much, which means you’re weak.

Stop caring and you’ll never again fear the repercussions of lying to a woman.

Bang Poland for the Extras

Bang Poland is part travel memoir, party how-to-get-laid guide.

I originally planned on visiting the country for one month, but ended up staying for seven. It wasn’t because I made amazing friends or fell in love with the cities, culture, or food. It also wasn’t because I became enchanted with its mountains or natural beauty.It was because I simply couldn’t get enough of the women.

Their personalities and vaginas fit me like a glove. What was supposed to be a little visit to get used to Eastern Europe turne dout to be one of the greatest discoveries of my adult life.

Although I have no plans to visit Poland (I hate travelling), Bang Poland is nevertheless a fun read. His description of Polish girls reminds me why men must demand better behavior from American women:

Sweet, gentle, and considerate. Even when a Polish girl rejects you, she’s sweeter than an American girl who fucks you.

Nurturing. A Polish girl gets pleasure if you’re experiencing pleasure, similar to the vibe of Brazilian women.

If you don’t like American girls, go to Poland.  ”Love it or leave it,” applies as much to the women you’re dating as it does to the country you live in.

If you’re going to remain in the U.S. for a few more years to make that money before expatriating, remember that women are horrible because our culture allows it. If your girl is not sweet, gentle, considerate, and feminine, then kick her the fuck out. If every American would “man up,” then women would start behaving better.

Today is the day to buy Bang Poland. It’s half-price, at $4.99, and also comes with several free gifts. Since Roosh is very methodical, one free gift is especially useful.

If you have a college education, you no doubt had a lab journal. Your journal, although a pain in the ass to maintain, would let you know exactly where your experiment went wrong. What is game but a human social experiment?

Thus, Roosh is including:

-My raw game notes from Poland. I share my working game notes along with my post-mortem analyses from pillaging three Polish cities on weekend trips. These are personal annotations that at the time were for my eyes only. You’ll be able to take a look at the method to my madness.

The notes alone are worth $4.99, so get your copy today.

Supplements for Men: Workout Supplements

Guys have asked me to write about supplements. Your calls have been answered. I’m going to break it down into three parts. This first part will discuss workout supplementation. The second part will discussion nootropics – or cognitive enhancement. The final part will discuss general health and life-extending supplements.

(If you shop at iHerb with this iHerb coupon code you’ll save $10 on your first order over $40 and get free shipping; you’ll have $5 on your first order and get free shipping on orders over $20.)

Guys are always looking for an edge in the gym. As someone who has spent years in gyms across the country, I have a few things to say about supplements.

First, the difference between supplements and steroids is the difference between lighting and a lighting bug. Even an extremely low dose of testosterone will blow away any testosterone booster you can buy on the market. Nothing comes close to comparing to steroids, and any supplement advertisement claiming otherwise is a scam.

Some guys have asked me if I use steroids, and the answer is no. I am seeing how far I can take my shitty genetics. Nevertheless, steroids are extremely safe and there are excellent Internet resources and communities discussing them. But that’s not my thing.

Second, supplements won’t make you swole per se. Supplements will help you have more intense workouts and will speed recovery. Gains from supplements come indirectly. If you’re not training hard and frequently, you’re wasting your money.

Third, my rule about everything that appears on this blog applies to supplements. Namely, I only write about what I do or have done. Your experiences, needs, or wants may differ from mine. What works for me may not work for you.

For example, I lay on body fat easily. I thus avoid high carbohydrate beverages. If you’re a skinny guy, you may want to throw some waxy maize into your pre-workout drink.

Finally, I don’t care to debate supplements in the comments. Any nerd can go on PubMed and debate confounding factors. Go into a jacked guy’s house and you’ll see jugs of protein powders and dozens of pill bottles. Maybe all of those guys are wrong. Regardless, I don’t care what virgins have to say about game and I don’t care what geeks have to say about supplements.

With that said, what are some supplements that will actually improve your workouts?

For lifting: The best pre-workout supplement by far is VPX NO Shotgun. It’s has stimulants to give you a buzz. It has arginine to boost nitric oxide levels. Arginine stimulates blood flow to the muscles and was originally developed to treat erectile dysfunction.  So NO Shotgun gives you good boners in addition to good workouts.

NO Shotgun also has fatigue-fighting beta-alanine, creatine, and protein and BCAAs to aid in recovery.  If you’re trying to gain weight, mix in a little waxy maize. (How much? Who knows. Add it to taste; experiment; and after a few sessions you’ll be able to answer the question for the only person it will be true for – yourself.)

The taste isn’t great. It tastes artificial.

Also, if you’re sensitive to caffeine or other stimulates, get NO Synthesize. It has all the benefits of Shotgun without the buzz.

All of the muscle magazines say that you need a post-workout shake containing carbs and protein at a 3:1 ratio and no fat. It’s supposed to spike insulin.

I’ve had NO SyntheSize post-workout. I’ve taken waxy maize and other exotic supplements. I’ve also eaten solid meals.

In my experience, if you nail pre-workout nutrition, what you do post-workout doesn’t matter all that much. NO Shotgun and SyntheSize are loaded with easily digestible proteins (casein and whey casein hydrolysates) and brain chain amino acids. Amino acids are already circulating in your bloodstream, aiding in recovery.

I usually order a shake from the juice bar and then eat a solid meal. Muscle Milk is also a mainstay. A large hamburger and a beer works, as does a huge plate of nachos. Whatever I do, I don’t sweat it.

For cardio: If you’re doing cardio, you’ll probably want to take a thermogenic (commonly called “fat burner) 20-30 minutes before your session. There are dozens of thermogenics on the market. The best one in my experience is VPX Meltdown.

It raises core body temperature. It also releases catecholamines, which are mood elevating. (Thermogenics may present an issue for guys on MAOIs. Always check the warning label.)

Even though there are hundreds of supplements that are supposed to improve your workouts, in my experience, the ones listed above work the best. They are also the most economical.

5-MeO-DMT

“I don’t like this,” I said after almost dying.

About two hours earlier, I had found myself in a room with a bunch of people wearing colored clothing clothing who talked a bunch of mystical bullshit. They compared 5-MeO-DMT to dimethyltryptamine – DMT, or the spirit molecule.

I’m a man of science with little patience for people who treat drugs as anything other than chemical substances that cause the body to undergo various physiological changes. If I inject testosterone into my deltoid, I’m not going to reach out and touch the Masculine forms of Plato and Michelangelo.

So if I smoke some 5-MeO-DMT, don’t fucking tell me that I’m about to “communicate with the divine,” or that I’m going to undergo “ego death.” Just let me take my drug in peace in quiet.

I thus went into the drug without any expectations. If anything, my expectations were premised on scorn. “These movement idiots are all the same. They need to make something seem larger than it is, as a way to give meaning to their own small lives.”

The smoke was harsh and metallic. It tasted like a lick from a Duracell 9 volt battery. Just as I was about to cough, I was gone.

Unlike with DMT, a person using 5-MeO-DMT isn’t supposed to see fractals. People on DMT come back with reports of conversations with aliens and gods. People who come from from 5-MeO-DMT come back with reports of…not much of anything.

When you fully commit to a 5-MeO-DMT trip, your ego dies. There is no “you” to observe and remember. There is no “you” to tell your story.

Your ego – another way to describe consciousness – is the self-knowledge that comes from knowing that you exist separate and apart from your material world. “I think therefore I am” is the ego. 5-MeO-DMT kills the “I.”

It’d be wrong to say I fell backwards. My body may have collapsed, but that was complete uninteresting.

My “soul” began moving at speeds that I cannot comprehend. It felt like my soul was moving through outer space.

As my soul ripped through the air, angelic-looking wings overtook my field of vision.

“I am dying.”

“No, I don’t want to die,” I kept repeating to myself. “I am not going to die.”

I was able to open my eyes and stare at the ceiling. The ceiling tiles started coming into focus, but I was still on my back, helpless.

I looked left and right. I knew I was in a room. But I did not feel present in my body.

I kept fighting to come back. I remembered a trick from lucid dreaming. If you want to take control of your dream, ground yourself by looking at your hands. Looking at your hands puts your consciousness in touch with its embodiment.

I kept staring at my arms until they seemed real, until I seemed real.

Finally able to sit up, I looked at my legs. My legs had not returned to me, or I to them.

What does it mean to say that your legs exist in two dimensions rather than three? What does it mean to say that your legs are as connected to the floor as they are to your body?

Finally able to reclaim my body, I ate a piece of fruit. No, that’s a lie.

When you put a piece of pineapple in your mouth, your senses process data. Your tongue feels the weight of the pineapple resting on it. Your tongue tastes the tartness. Your teeth press into the fibrous shell containing citrus-flavored water.

When I bit into the pineapple, the pineapple ate me as I much as I ate it. The pineapple and I merged into one.

Mumbo jumbo? Maybe. Or maybe some experiences truly do go beyond language as we understand it.

Although present in my body, my ego was still dead. I felt a deep sense of love for the people I sneered at only moments ago. “I wonder if any of these people need help? I wonder if there is anything I can do for them?”

After coming to my senses an hour or so later, I was again fulled with hate. I was a wolf. But that day has stayed with me for years.

When we no longer view ourselves as separate egos – when we destroy the distinction Us and Them – we open ourselves up to an infinite source of compassion and love.

The ego, a mystic will tell you, exists to protect ourselves from the pain that comes from loving others. The ego above all else fears injury. The ego fears death. The ego is a pussy.

Although a wolf, I was too afraid to go deep into the woods. I was too afraid to let go. I was too afraid to die.

I must therefore go back. I must die before I can continue to live.

Fat Acceptance: The Time is Now

According to recent CDC data, 67% of Americans are overweight or obese.

  • Percent of adults age 20 years and over who are obese: 33.9% (2007-2008)
  • Percent of adults age 20 years and over who are overweight (and not obese): 34.4% (2007-2008)

Although we might disagree over tastes great, less filling, or Obama or Romney, we as a country have made a near-unanimous decision. Being fat is OK.

Can two-hundred million Americans be wrong?

I think not.

Yet I see so many of my brothers-in-arms openly attacking fat women.

Who do you guys think you are? Do you think you’re special? Do you think you’re better than 67% of the country? If so, why?

Have you won a Nobel Prize or an Olympic gold medal? I think not.

It it time to embrace fat acceptance. I use embrace literally and figuratively.

By accepting fat people as they are, you are showing compassion for all of God’s creatures. You are choosing not to be judgemental. You are adopting a positive mindset based on love and tolerance. You are deconstructing the socially constructed, anti-fat artifices that confine our mind.

Open your mind up to new possibilities. Once you destroy the house that a Westernized, materialistic, oppressive society has created, you are opening your home up to millions of women.

Most women are “fat.” By assessing women under the false consciousness of fat hate, you’ve disqualified the majority of women from consideration. Imagine what would happen if you stopped being a “Shallow Hal.”

How many more women could have you have meaningful relationships with? How many more millions of women could you have hot sex with? Is hot, sweaty sex not appealing to you? Imagine the temperatures created from sex with a 300 pound woman.

Fat acceptance is my new religion. I owe a heartfelt thanks Nigel Davis of Nigel’s Big Game Blog for opening my eyes.

Like all men, I rejected his truth. As another great humanitarian wrote, “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”

Thank you for opening my mind to the destructive toll judging has taken on my brain, and for opening my eyes to the beauty of fat women.

I would encourage all of you to base your life on one of love and fat acceptance rather than meanness and hate.

“If not us, who? If not now, when?”

The time for fat acceptance is now. The only question is: Are we man enough to love women for who they are?

What is Sex With an Older Woman Like?

Fortunately this is not my first-hand report:

Yes, she did seem like she had a pretty face at one point, and her hair and all that shit was nice, which would lead me to believe she dressed to impress; at one point anyway.

Her pussy was all loose, like pealed chicken skin or something.

It took her a good while to get wet also, and some saliva had to be used.

Shudders.
