"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Some people claim its great for building mass and to be more aesthetic, is that true? I was under the impression that you can get stronger without building that much mass (at least not much compared to a hypertrophy split)

its not the matter of which routine is better. The problem is not focusing on eating and staying consistent...
 

"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.

While consistence is good, I believe progression is also important. The issue here is which one will be better in gaining mass?

I was under the impression that muscle growth is different from a hypertrophy split and strength training, but now its kinda blurry to me...

Imagine, ever saw a guy with 12" arms Bench press 225? Me neither.

But then again, did you gain mass because you got strong? Or will you get strong by gaining mass?

Also Kerpal you remind me of this website I used to go to :D
