My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 04-10-2026
Start Date: 07 April 2026
After 2 months on PRA, jumping on the AM7 train felt like the most natural path forward to focus on. I’m at that point in life where enough healing has occurred, and I need to focus on cultivating action, decisiveness, courage, core confidence.
Listening pattern: 4 loops Ultrasonic, 12/16 volume on iPhone
Stage 0
Day 1
Sudden motivation to tidy and arrange things around the house.
Inner anger at my dating life, feeling I am not living to my potential. feeling I should be able to attract good looking women consistently and have sex more regularly.
Date night.
Days 2-4
More frustrations coming to surface. Mostly regarding to women and dating life. Stuff I’ve numbed or repressed now asking my attention.
Even though last couple of years I’ve been with many women, I always relied on needing their validation and permission to allow myself to make a move on them.
This year, I’ve hesitated too much and wasted many opportunities.

First 4 day ON cycle completed last night. Last night, I did something I rarely do and have some anxiety when doing it.
I’ve been in contact with a woman recently through messages, we haven’t seen each other yet. I asked for her number to have a phone conversation to hear her voice, see how we vibe.
So last night I called her and we had a 30 minutes voice conversation and it went very good, it felt natural to keep the conversation going without awkward silences.
Also noticed I needed more sleep than usual last couple of nights.

After a couple of underwhelming past weeks in terms of new matches on the dating apps, last couple of days I’ve been experiencing a surge of new matches, I’m talking dozens.
I don’t think AM7 state 0 has a manifestation module, but still I thought I should mention.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 04-21-2026
Going through a period of frustrations, regret, lower confidence with women. Not pleasant at all. But I guess it’s better than indifference and anhedonia, which were the dominant states for so long.
Looks like I really needed Stage 0.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 04-24-2026
Had some realisation last might when reflecting about my current low levels of self confidence. Objectively, I am getting a lot of matches on dating apps, I’ve been with close to 100 women, so I should be more self-confident about my looks and my masculinity and ability to attract women.
Yet I still have a lot of approach anxiety and doubt myself when I go through periods of less success.
And you know what? Choosing to feel confident, to feel entitled as a man is a self-fulfilling prophecy. It’s literally your choice, you can allow yourself to do it and be as confident as you want.
Because perception is everything to women. How you perceive yourself is what she will think of you.
So if you think you’re the man, and you can back it up, women will think the same. It may not be the case for every woman, but enough women will be attracted to your perception of yourself as being The MAN.

Really dialled in currently with my physique goals. I’m currently in a leaning/ cutting phase for the summer, I want to reach 11-12% body fat with defined abs. Last couple of days, I’ve been really motivated and focused with my nutrition, ensuring I reach my goal target.
Usually, in the past, whenever I would set a goal to get lean, I would either quit too soon, by convincing myself that the nutrition part is too hard or that I’m getting too skinny. And them I would bulk up again.
This time, I can feel my mindset has shifted. i have tunnel vision of where I want to be and what it takes to achieve it. In 2026, lean is law.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 04-30-2026
Just to recap on my dating life on AM7.
Last weekend, I’ve had my first lay since being on this sub. She came over straight to my place for a night of fun.
Tonight I went out on a first date for drinks. I could tell that she was into me. At the end of the night, I grabbed her hand, brought her close to me, and she was actually the one who initiated the kissing by saying “you can kiss me”, and leaning in for the kiss. We had a short make out session and said goodbye.
I wanted the night to continue and thought about proposing to go back to my or hers place, but I played it safe, and she was telling me she is sleepy and such.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 05-03-2026
Found myself this weekend mourning my most significant relationship, even though we broke up 2-3 years ago (but stil kept in contact). A big part of that emotional processing needed I did while running PRA 6G.
Seems like Stage 0 AM7 is helping me heal further.
What I realised is that in the moments when I’m imagining the happy memories with her. I’m missing the version of her that existed at that moment in time, that was loyal and faithful to me and hasn’t betrayed and hurt me.
But that version of her is gone forever and has been replaced by the version of her that betrayed me and hurt me a lot.
That’s the tragedy. I’m mourning a state, a connection, closeness, and a side of her that is gone forever. Because since those happy memories, ugly and unforgivable things have happened that I haven’t been able to forget or get over.

Noticed myself more proactive today at my work/ job, instead of passing responsibility into other people, in situations in which being proactive and showing initiative is the right thing to do.
Also, I’m more eager in running errands and doing them on tine instead of avoiding or delaying them.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 05-08-2026
1 month of Stage 0 completed. I’m feeling a lot the PRA/ emotional healing component. It feels like I’m making leaps in processing my ex-relationship (not the last one, the one before that), in the sense that I’m finally accepting of the fact that it wasn’t meant to be and my life has to go on without her.
Last 2 weeks, I’m also experiencing progressive increase in motivation to meet new women.
Also, my cutting/ leaning phase is going according to plan, I am really dialled in with my nutrition and making steady progress on the scale.
Also, finally made the last payment on a debt that I’ve been dragging for years. I am at the moment relieved to be debt-free. I guess realising the need to pay it off asap is a sign of maturity. Because for years, I’ve tried to avoid its existence in my head, I’ve only made smaller payments and just dragging it on for many more years than needed.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 05-21-2026
Last night, the girl I was infrequently seeing casually the past few months came to my place. And the pillow talk discussion we had a discussion that made me have an important realisation.
She said something along the lines of “we’ve known each other for a couple of months, and you still feel like a stranger to me, it’s weird”.
Also “you are so quiet most of the time”. And it made me realise something that has always been a problem of pattern of mie. I’m afraid of opening up to people, to express myself due to fear of being judged, ridiculed, made fun of, or having my self-image exposed and people realising that I’m lame, instead of the stoic, misterios front that I out out.
I’m talking even with stuff as sharing what I’ve been doing with my days, I’m very protective with what I share, I’d rather not be perceived as boring.
This is 0 me from connecting on a deeper level with both women and people in general.
Also, on the news of Stage 1 being released in 6.5G, I’m going to skip it. I’m doing the sub through a subscription, I will do a full run through of Stage 0 in 6G, and then move to Stage 1 in 6.5.
Also, I am sensing shifts in maturity, decisiveness, realistic/ objective thinking. The sub is doing the deep work underneath.

Nearing 2 months on Stage 0 6G. PRA component working hard and deep. Been going through a lot of emotional processing. Like old scars healing and being patched.
Memories of my past 2 girlfriends came up recently. They come in waves.
A wave of nostalgia just hit me tonight. I remembered some childhood moments, reminisced about good times. Also remembered my father, who passed away 13 years ago. Still miss him, but this is a wound that will never be fully patched in this life.
Financially, I am in a good place. Finally debt free and able to build up my savings fund month by month.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 06-22-2026
A lot of emotional growth and maturity happening.
Seeing my ex again triggered something in me, I realised that I still have some feelings for her and will always have. And that’s fine. But everything that happened between us in all these years affected my confidence in a if way. And I need to regain that back.
I’ve been handling it in a stoic way so far.
But it’s also the first time I’m really considering seeing a psychologist. Before I would consider it a failure to see a therapist, Thinking that as a man, you should power through and get over something through sheer will, action.
But now I’m more open to try it.
Also, getting a bit “tired” of Stage 0, having thoughts at completing 3 months, and I’m looking forward to Stage 1.
RE: My AM7 Journal - Masculinity Maxxing - GreekGod22 - 06-26-2026
Events or heartbreaks that in the past would take me months or years to shake them off and recover my confidence, I’m now able to process them much faster. The pain is still there, but I don’t let it destroy me and derail my life.
I’m looking forward to Stage 1, especially the Primal masculinity, self confidence components.
