"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.

for most time until 3 years ago i was in the gym pumping iron.
i find it is excellent way of training and i would reccomend it
to everybody.
only that i think that you should substitute the bench press
with pushups from every angle.
sub db flyes with no weight flyes and
db side raises with no weight side raises,


when i started training at home without the iron,naturally i
had to switch to pushups.
after a long experimentations i found that the best (for me)
are decline "sink" pushups and top half partial"pump" pushups.
for a quick arm pumps a high reps wall pushups is great.

for my lower body i use hindu squat and half squat.

i dont have much free time so my training is like this:
monday to friday

when i get up
1 set 10 reps pushup
15 min after
1 set 10 reps pushups
1 set of squats

before work
1 set 10 reps pushup


after work
2 sets 2o reps pushup
1 set of squats

eating

before going to sleep
1 set of 10 reps pushup

whenever i have time i do neck stretches


now i am on hollydays
my training is the same (sets spread through the day)
only that i do from 300 do 500 pushups a day
i got bad knees so i do 50 hindus a day.
no weight side raises and no weight flyes(standing)
and isometric exercises.

my upper body got a decent shape and got even better
with 300-500 pushups a day.after two days i see the difference.


1-if you never trained before do a medical checkup
2-dont do 500 pups the first day,build to it through months
3-you can even start with isometrics than slowly adding
pushups and squats
4-the principle of spreading sets is called greasing the groove




opinions,suggestions,critiques


cheers and good training

alex



pp.s. i bought my self a 20 pound dumbell and during the day whenever
i pass near the dumbel i lift it 5 times.
it should be around 50-75 lifts a day
 

"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.

If you like this type of training look into Pavel Tstatoline(SP). His website is www.dragondoor.com. He has a few good books too. You should add one legged squats into your workout.
