"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

My arms don't seem to be keeping up with the rest of my body. I was thinking of increasing my arm workouts to 2x/week. I usually do arms on fridays (bicep, tricep, forearm).

Would it help if I started doing arms on Mondays (chest) as well?
 

"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.

Well I started doing arms 2x/week.

Apparently nobody here has tried this yet? I'll update in a few weeks and let you know how it's going.

I used to do arms 2x a week, but that was before I started full body workouts. If you're working out all of your body, you should be getting some tri work on chest day and some bi work on back day.

But hey, it's good to try new things.

GUYS, you can train a musclegroup 2x, even 3x a week. there have been countless studies on this to confirm that frequent, low volume progressive exercise can create more hypertrophy (expanding of muscle tissue) and put less stress on your central nervous system then a typical "train each muscle group once a week with several exercises" routine.

I Work out arms 3 times per week in a split routine.

Moday and Friday - Bi's

Wednesday Tri's.

Seems to work well for me - although I'm not doing a lot of sets - or exercises. But I lift heavy - 5 or 6 rep range.
 

"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.

Everybody is different, Period! My muscles respond better with more exercise. If i work each muscle group one time per week, i see little gains (and vice versa).

Keep a journal, try different workouts, and find out what your body responds best to.
