Ok, I don't wana know how much you do on the flat bench. But, How much do you incline?
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Are YOU strong???

"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.
misunderstood??

for how many reps?

What angle incline? 30 degree or 45 degree? What's the difference between this tread and the "max bench" tread?

what does a Quad weigh and does pushing it off of yourself count? I've never done incline lifts.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Too answer your questions Dee-Zy:

225 is a pretty serious incline press
"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.
not really, don't mean to brag or anything but i'm 80 kg and my deadlift is around the 150 kg area the last time i checked (4 months ago) it should be more but anyway, that's not the point. even with that deadlift i dont consider myself as strong, i'm not weak, no not at all, that's pretty good at 16 years old but im not as strong as i would like to be.
i think its a combination of flat bench, squat and deadlift. just like powerlifting. AND adding olympic movements in there, the person who moves the most weights there is the stronger man.
Oh, absolutely. Deadlift is by no means the be-all end-all of measuring someone's strength, but it's certainly a better measure than incline. Squats are a better measure as well.
I was simply pointing out that having a high incline press doesn't necessarily mean you're strong. I've got vain friends that go to the gym and just work their chest, bis, and abs... and you know what? They can probably bench more than I can, but I'll still throw them around like rag dolls if it ever comes to it.
I wasn't saying "deadlifts = strength." I was saying that "deadlifts = strength" is a less erroneous statement than "incline = strength."
