Alright lads, here's something that I've encountered a fair few times now, some input would be awesome. When I'm flirting with girls I've just met, i.e. cold approach a group of girls, I encounter them telling me I'm arrogant, "full of myself" and that "I love myself". For example, this...

So my favourite vertical pulling exercise is underhand lat pulldowns, i.e. pulldowns with a chinup grip. Are these pulldown machines made for tall people btw? I'm pulling more than my bodyweight so I have to put weights in my pockets and then kinda dangle off the bar until I fall into a...

Hey, OK, a little about myself, and why I've decided to start this training log. I've just turned 18, living in the North of England, and I'm 5'8, and under 120lbs. I'm cut, but quite underweight for my age and height. In pursuit of self-improvement, I'm making a real start with lifting this...
