“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

ATG Deadlifts?

I was at the gym today, and some guy who I see there often sees me warming up for deadlifts and offers some suggestions.

He pretty suggests starting deadlifts in an ATG squat position, but with the spine perfectly vertical. Then, you drive your feet into the ground and push until you're fully standing. He also suggested filling the bar with only smaller weights (6 25lb plates instead of 3 45 lbs plates, for example) so the bar can be lower and you can squat down that far. Supposedly, this is so your lower back doesn't get injured.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but deadlifts are meant to be a lower back exercise (to some degree). Any thoughts on this guy's ideas?
 

"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.

atg deadlifts are not deadlifts-they're goon lifts! don't listen to the guy who's loading the bar with 25's to deadlift.
stick to conventional
deadlifts are a full body exercise.

I went on about this in Quagmire's log.
I won't bother, seeing that your other two threads are of the same ilk and you seem to know everything.

Yes you start it as a squat, no it's not a lower back exercise.
 

"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.

Don't be snide, MrS. I'm asking a question, not looking for a flamewar with you.

I disagree that the deadlift starts as a squat, and so does Mr.Rippetoe.

Yes leg drive is important, but it is a pull.

Nice link Quagmire, you saved some poor sap from taking MrS's incorrect (go figure) advice.

I'm glad I've been doing them the right way, it's tough getting used to a new form on a lift like this.

I won't bother replying in depth, suffice to say have fun with your deadlifts.
