Does anybody else flesh gets bruised when using certain machines in the gym? When I use 2 machines in the gym that involves placing my shoulders underneath them such as "Hack squates" or "Standing Calf Raises" I noticed that it leaves deep red marks in the flesh of skin on my shoulders and it takes about a week or so for it to heal. Anybody else experience this? or knows why it happens??
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"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.

It's nothing mate. Temporary battle scars - wear them with pride!
If the machines dig into your skin uncomfortably you could try putting a towel there or something to cushion the blow, so to speak.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

deadlifting leaves my shins sore and hack style deads left a really nasty bruise on one of my calves about a week ago. It happens but you get used to it.

quads should feel most burn from squats... not lower leg so much.
