Interactive Bootcamp, Ep. #3: “Things Begin To Click”

CONCLUSION
In this Entry I try to get Mentalist (Zack) over his sticking point of being able to stop moving Targets. My second aim is to get him to keep a short conversation going with some strangers so he can realize they’re not all mean, and they’re not out to get him.
Out of the 5 sets he approached, all but 1 stopped for him, and all but 2 gave him their opinion (if you saw Vh1′s “The Pickup Artist,” take note that in the Second LAST episode of the season when the men were supposed to be almost “PUA’s,” they could hardly get ANY moving targets to stop).
Of course the next step after getting their opinion is KEEPING the conversation going for a longer time. Mentalist is relatively new to the game, and the steps I provided for him (and you, the viewers) are intended to be applied one at a time. This means not jumping the gun until each step has been mastered! This is the exact reason why you are to eject and not keep talking (if you’re more advanced feel free to continue the conversation, however) Following these steps strictly WILL transform you from an everyday frustrated guy, into a guy who’s able to have Option over what women he allows into his life! The steps work so wonderfully because they build a SOLID foundation of learned skills, whilst easing you into formerly awkward social situations, instead of tossing you into a pit of sharks.
The next episode will include the following: How to start building attraction with a complete stranger.

In my opinion Mentalist has that happy demeanor naturally and It’s an asset for him. He’s not like that friendly, happy vibe that’s cool for guys to have as long as they don’t ever act needy. Awesome job Mentalist!
I MESSED UP THE FIRST POST OPPS
Yesterday….. I was doing my normal runs … shopping and seen a girl that was honestly listening to me and my friends convo.. as we left I turned to the side, and in the middle of talking to my homie. Told this girl “you are a cutie” exact words, went on to walk… stopped a few seconds after saying that because my balls dropped haha, turned around and spoke to her for 2 minutes… for a closer I asked her for her number and she said she “doesn’t have a phone, its out of minutes”… I quickly replied with “wow” but she must of been thinking like me.. this was the first time ive ever got a myspace lol from a girl.. i didn’t even have to ask.. she handed it to me.
But the reason of me writing is to see if you can do a bonus video of you getting a few girls myspace just for shits and giggles.
and give a shout out to CAMCAM from detroit
Yo Jack!
We need to see you do more approaches
its fun watching you pick, your body language
is cool, so lets see some more-
great job
excuse me, where has this video been shot, mall location ? tx !
Great job Mentalist!!!!! You should me really proud of the work you are doing as an up and comming PUA it great to see you in action. Just a word or two about your approach technique.
When you go into your approach watch your speach pattern, slow your speach down and really punch each word, this might sound a little weird but you will come accross much more dynamic in your approaches.
Also watch your video tapes, you rock a little too much when you are engaging your target, try to anchor yourself more and like Jack says only rock or act as if you are leaving when you feel the target starting to lose interest.
Keep up the GOOD FIGHT, you really are doing GREAT!
Thanks Vision, I’ll keep your tips in mind.
“that’s great” … and great it is
Hey wassup guys!?!? Just wanted to say i’ve seen every epsiode of your expolits and you guys are totally an insipration to me and others like me. You gentelemen give hope to those who have no hope and courage to those who dream but dare not to fullfill their dreams. I know it sounds cheesy, but hey its the truth.Thanks for all your information and material, you gentlemen have help me to become a more rounded PUA and Person. Thank you again.
P.S, the 9 in 10 drill has helped me alot.
Wow jack! I know I’ve been a little abrasive in some of my earlier posts, but you’re really developing nicely! LOVE this new format of teaching / providing examples. The callouts of the girls body language in response to your actions is GREAT too. What a lot of people don’t realize about game is that so much of it (the majority) is body language and tonality and reacting to quess given out by the girls. You’re doing a great job with demonstrating this – wish we could know the general way you handled the girls that you stopped on the street when you were unmiked.
mentalist, great work man, you’re on your way and I’m thoroughly enjoying watching you grow!
Jack’s game is tight now; he’s confident like T.
Mentalist, You are one kickass dude, no joke. Like other posts above, you’ve got a cool avatar and a cool vibe. All those asians are yours for the taking, and damn…they were money
Agree completely with your statement at the end, about the fact that the girls are not really rejecting YOU, rather your APPROACH. You did really well to see that, you handle approach anxiety and you’re not influenced by the reaction of the girls, even if they carry on walking like who the hell is this guy, you still plow on with the opener! That’s money man.
I noticed you go for the asians though, all the time, perhaps you find it a bit easier because you feel more ‘at home’ with them. If you’ve got a little sticking point with that, plow through your AA with all races of girls, there’s no question you can do it.
But damn…some of those asians were smoking, just my type too (Im not asian myself) and I probably would have opened the same ones ha
Jack!! Whats up with it man? Great site, but my challenge to you is, open a set and hook it brilliantly like you do, but this time wear a baggy sweater/hoody or something to conceal your guns. FFS!!!
A MINUS
“…by commanding them to stop, not asking.”
Jack: “Excuse me guys/girls?”
I’m pretty sure that’s a question. Nice try. Jack broke one of the most fundamental rules by saying “EXCUSE ME?”
Yeah r34ct… but it worked anyway.
Rules are not set in stone man, they’re guidelines. Even big time PUA’s who espouse stricter rulesets contradict themselves and break their own rules when it suits (Mystery, Sinn, Future, Savoy etc. – listen to their audios closely and you’ll spot what I mean.) and they still pickup like crazy. The goal isn’t to follow rules, but to get the girl. Jack and Mentalist have proven that they can open sets and Jack has shown his ability to spot IOI’s (whether he’s induced them or not) and to react to them appropriately. It will be interesting to watch the next few videos as he covers his methodologies to garner attraction. IMHO that’s a true test – how to get a stranger truly interested in you and to then move that to a higher level.
Excuse me isn’t a question, it’s a demand for forgiveness for the intrusion you’re making.
Besides, it’s not even a word that has meaning anymore, it’s just an arbitrary phrase to use when talking to someone.
hey , i noticed in this video that you are in Toronto, near the eaton center. This is one of my prime sarging venues, for day sarging. Listen, I’m going to keep this short. In the past several months I’ve only been sarging with ppl that are equally as good or still in the beginners stage. I’m looking for someone to go out with that is better to up my game some more. Since you teach this I’m assuming you’re pretty good.. but i guess i won’t know if you’re actually that good until i meet you
if you’re still in town, I’d love to meet up.. leave me an e-mail or something.
peace –> jo
ok.. forget the last post. LOL, i just realize that Jack is pretty much a PUG now that he’s charging for admission.. umm, mentalist
if you’re seeing this. I’m also chinese (u seem chinese bro.) 24 live in Toronto. and I would say your game and mine are about the same.. maybe yours is better now that u can afford Jack to be your trainner. But i would love to get together and sarge with you if you’re down for that.. give me a shout “mysticknight3684@hotmail.com”

Hey you guys, whats up? Im wondering when is the new video gonna be posted up? Or did they decide not to post them anymore? Hey and Jack keep doing your thing, playa! Much respect to you and your crew, you guys ROCK!
Oh when i said new video i meant as in the mentalist part 3, and nitro part 2
Not to sound ignorant, but is there a reason why you’re only approaching asian women?
Hey im not being a hater but how can you say that ur not after the money when ur charging 875 for 8 hours with u lmao. I know youre pretty good but based on your video’s i dont think ur a guru.
Eizmo – I’m asian and I noticed that too – Asians (at least here in the US ) are stereotyped as not being very dominant so I think mentalist was just going for what he perceives are easier pickings. I’d say add 2 points to any girl if she’s white (so going after a white chick that’s a 7 for a white guy, for an asian it would be like going after a 9 – much tougher). this primarily because we asians (in general) have to overcome the self imposed belief that white chicks don’t go for asian dudes. Very rare couplings if you ever see them.
Good stuff!
For the love of god, make a new episode.
What did Jack say when he stopped the 2 girls in the beginning?
When will you restart to record?
Pax
Did you quit or what? Really like your vids, but as more people might be wondering: Is there gonna be another episode at all?
Good luck playing the field.

God dammit Jack where are you???? You had a GREAT thing going here and now it’s all fucked up here. Have fame gone to your head or what??
damn Jack what happened to the site? where are you?!
Yeah what happened!? I was just getting into these
GUYS!! Jack is a PUA now… you gotta understand this: PUA’s are BUSY ALL THE TIME. They have things going on EVERY day of their lives… The site, the forum, the coaching, a full time job too… You now have all the basics man! Stop pissing in your pants and DO the shit
Everything you NEED is right here on the website! Maybe it would be good for US to continue his work from now on… WE CAN DO THIS !!!!
Naw, somebody tipped me off that PUA watchdog is on his case about his experience. They say he wasn’t really an AFC and that he is therfore a fraud. (although they say his videos are legit) I personally disagree with PUA watchdog’s assualt seeing how Jack was clearly inexperienced in the beginning, but I feel that their accusations and Jack’s sudden dissappearence are linked. I just hope he starts cranking out new videos soon. These have actually helped (in combination with other videos) and I have conquered my approach fear (or atleast reigned it in). Jack would gain much support if he did new, well documented, legitimate infield episodes instead of just sort of putting everything on hold. Anyway, good luck Jack and get this show on the road!
ive been doing this shit, pick up is natural i didnt find it really hard, its probably cause i dont care about what people think but im asian, why is this guy only going for asian girls!! that shits too easy. ive been having a lot of sucess im glad i got off my ass and started doing this i can enjoy life and now im always busy! thanks jack you da man
Did you die or something Jack?!? These videos have really helped out a lot so far!
