"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

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.
 

"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.

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.
