"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Are Hack Squats meant to be this easy?

just did my workout, and completed hack squats, 5x5, 57kg.

I did it with ease, and am at a bit of a problem due to the fact my weights go upto about 60kg.

The only body part i can feel being worked when i'm doing these is my abs on the 1st set, then it all feels really easy to me, and i dont feel as though im benefiting from it.

Am i doing these wrong? Will post up a form check vid in the near future if required.

post might not make a whole lotta sense, its late.
 

"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.

I recently started 5x5s on squats, and I didn't feel like they were working. I'm switching back to 3x10s, but I can keep my heart rate down with the 5x5s easier. So, maybe you need more weight or switch to 3x10.

With 5x5s you do the most you can, but you do 5 reps per 5 sets and increase 5 pounds when you feel like you can do more the next week. You don't go up in weight during your sets, so try doing more weight, but stay at that weight for the 5 sets.

I did 5x5s on leg extensions and saw a huge difference because I forced myself to do as much weight as I thought I could do.
