Getting Laid During a Bootcamp
People often ask, what is a typical success rate during a bootcamp? And I always answer, it depends on how you define success. I would define it on how much someone grows as a person, and as a pick up artist, then how much they are pushed out of their comfort levels. I would also rate it based on how many of their sticking points we break through, and how much they improve overall. But of course, people always ask, how many people get laid? Well here’s my answer to that…
The guys that get laid during our bootcamps are generally ones that already have things going for them in life. If I had to estimate some numbers…I’d say a three day bootcamp advances your game an average of 10 months of self studying and field work.
What that means is if a guy is already decent in other parts of his life, as in his career is on track, he’s healthy and in decent shape, and he has good conversation and relationships with friends, family and co-workers, he comes into the bootcamp with a good foundation and some positive points. A guy like this will do well because:
1. By signining up for a bootcamp he admits to himself that he wants to improve and is open minded to learning.
2. He commits to a weekend of “the suck” knowing that he’ll be pushed far past his comfort zones and become a new man.
3. By seeing instructors demo, especially if the instructor is shorter/chubbier/uglier than them, it instantly conquers self limiting beliefs and gives them the “if he can do it, I can do it mentality”
4. The lecture portion gives the student structure, so instead of them trying to use 8 different methods that they’ve half read on the internet, they now have complete training in one.
5. He is pushed harder than ever, and critiqued on the spot, just to be pushed back in again.
6. In a group bootcamp, he learns and grows along side of his fellow students, which often accelerates the learning process.
However, if a guy comes into the bootcamp with low or negative social skills, and doesn’t have the other parts of his life handled, he’ll still grow by an average of 10 months, and his game will improve drastically. But starting with -3 points doesn’t make you a 10 over one weekend…if anything you become normal, or average even. But you will have the skills and structure to keep working on yourself to get to a point where you can be great.
Getting laid during a bootcamp isnt’ that common, it happens maybe 1 out of 5 bootcamps, which gives for a nice FR or review, but coming to a bootcamp with the sole intention of getting laid isn’t the best way to learn. In fact, we had one student who pulled around midnight, got laid, changed clothes, and came back an hour before closing so he could complete the rest of that night’s field work with us. Now that’s dediction!

Thanks for the breakdown. I was always curious about Bootcamp lays. Btw, you mispelled laid in the title of the post ;-)
