23 28 Things I Really Wish I Did or Didn't Do in My 20's (and What Might Have Been...)

updated November 1: social media shares/url was reset, no comments were lost - I will reply to comments when I get a chance. Thanks for reading! 

The past couple months have been busy (I have some surprises for you soon, I'm the owner of 2 other new businesses), it's been a while since I published a discussion on Good Looking Loser, so I'm going to try and make this one count.

In December of 2013, I published a popular series called "30 Things I Wish I Knew in My Early 20's" on Lifestyle by Good Looking Loser. The series details a list of unique insights that I learned in my 20's - most of which I learned on my own and many of which would have greatly accelerated my transition from an isolated insecure bodybuilder without a sex life to a confident douchebag with more options than I ever thought possible.

This discussion, "20 Things I Wish I Did or Didn't Do In My 20's", is going to focus on actions that I wish I took (or didn't take) rather than insights I wish I knew.

The majority of this post is based on what I learned in 2005-2006, the 'Bodybuilding Junk Food Era'.disclaimer: Many bodybuilders exaggerate just how much fast food they eat by posting pictures on Instagram of their huge cheat meals. Not very many serious bodybuilders eat fast food more than 1 or 2 times a day however.

I often rip on the Bodybuilding Lifestyle (for non-competitive bodybuilders who are solely trying to look good for chicks). Most guys who spend over 10 hours/week in the gym (and an additional 25+ hours in the kitchen) just don't Get Laid much. Some don't even have any human contact other than the handful of people that they nod to at the gym.

I've been there.

But the fact of the matter is - 

Most bodybuilders/gym rats actually have VERY GOOD potential with women - they are already in better shape than the average guy, they already look masculine, they have a strong work ethic and an automatic "in" with cute fitness girls.

So What Prevents Bodybuilders From Fixing Their Shit?(Pride, Pride, Pride x 10,000)

In Part II of our series "Plight of the Lonesome Bodybuilder", I discussed the most common problems that "The Bodybuilder" faces and offered first-step solutions.

In this section, we'll discuss why most Bodybuilders will not make any effort to fix their sex life, but also offer hope to the small percentage that are willing to admit that the antisocial lifestyle is keeping them undersexed and that their body is not scoring them tons of hot girls.

Let's begin -

With solid potential and beatable 'problems', we would think that this Bodybuilder character would be willing to make the necessary changes/social improvements to have a good sex life that he actually yearns for.

The Main Problem(s) With Bodybuilders

In Part I of our series, "Plight of the Lonesome Bodybuilder", I discussed who "The Lonesome Bodybuilder" is and why he actually has pretty good potential with women if his emotional problems don't run too deep.

In this section, we're going to discuss the common mindsets, tendencies and self-imposed roadblocks that The Lonesome Bodybuilder faces.

More importantly, we'll offer a first-step solution to all of these.

Many lonely undersexed Bodybuilders aren't ready to hear this.(I'm plenty qualified to give advice on bodybuilding and how to escape it - I've done more juice than 99% of guys that are reading this. It was my entire life for 5.5 years.)

Why "Bodybuilders" Struggle With Women(and what to do about it)

Welcome to our 3-part series specifically aimed at "Bodybuilders".

If you consider yourself a "Bodybuilder" but can Get Laid a lot or you don't want to for some reason (and you aren't lying), you can largely ignore this.

If you consider yourself a "Bodybuilder" and have a slew of hot fitness girls trying to go out with you, you can largely ignore this.

You are not among the majority.
