"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

When I first got into weightlifting and bodying building. I took a afterschool class in high school for weightlifting/power training. Our teacher was a man of experience, winning several strong lift competions so, who not better to learn from?

I learned to do Bent-Over Barbell Rows with my knees bent and my back parallel to the floor. A more 90 degree angle. Purpose of the Exercise: to thicken the upper back and to a lesser degree; add density to the lower back.

Nowadays, I see guys bent over at only around 45 - 60 degrees. Was there some scientific change that took place? Does it not matter how much you bend over. As long as you body is over the bar?

Thoughts?

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.
