"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Right elbow started to ache yesterday, I thought it would be fine today, but apparently not. Really started to hurt after a few sets on the bench and I had to cut my session short to go and ice it up.
There's always something ..... :-(

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Sup fellas. Still about, just having a week taking it 'easy' kinda..... Well doing legs only.
And some bench
A few deadlifts...
Heavy rows.
Super heavy shrugs.
5x5 on 235 lb on the bench.
Couple of pull ups.
Then stopped cos of my elbow causing grief.
Ok, so that doesn't really look like I was taking it easy.... But thinking about resting is kinda the same as doing the damn thing ... Right guys?

Good squats man,

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Frontsquat Session
knee hurt like mad last night, but luckily it was ok when I woke.
Quads still aching from backsquats 2 days ago, I went in anyway.
bar x 12
60kg x 12
80kg x 10
100kg x 6 - *****REP PR*****
120kg x 2 - almost got stuck on the second, but grinded through that sticking point.
125kg x 1 - love that I can still hit that PR - will try to beat it in a couple of days
as a session, it was good - definite strength gains even if no pr got broken, getting these heavier ones all in is an achievement in itself , especially with DOMS.

I could honestly have done another set on 120kg but I'm doing frontsquats in 2 days and I wanted to be as fresh as possible.
Quads still hurt just above knees.

I wrap my knees, just mad doms lately from legs every day. I think the elbow is tendonitis, so rest and anti inflammatories.

ok, after a few lighter training sessions I came back through for DEADLIFTS.
its been a while, but I wanted to see what the craic was.
Missed breakfast and really missed out on calorie requirements yesterday - bad day, bad news and all that, so therapy time.
70kg x 12
120kg x 12
170kg x 6
190kg x 3
200kg x 2
210kg x 1
was gonna go for 220, but wasn't feeling it after 210, and I didn't need to add a missed max to my list of woes
so dropped to
170kg x 3 - double overhand grip
30second rest
170kg x 6 - mixed grip
150kg x 10
a few pullups and stretches and off outta there.
elbow was fine and I hit a decent weight for having not eaten in a while (like 14 hours)
feel better now

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
