"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.

I've been on the 5x5 program for awhile now and I think I hit a plateau.
I have to squat 330lbs for 5x5 but when I get to the last set last rep my legs and body give out on me.

I train Monday, Wednesday, Fridays

I failed Monday had 2 more reps to go.
Failed Wednesday, had one more rep to go.

My boy considered I do a deload. What do you guys reccomened I do. And how should I go about deloading?

Quality form/depth is key in my opinion.

I wouldn't concern myself over failing to lift a certain amount of weight and reps. If you're sweating and winded and feeling like you've pushed your body to the max after a squat set then consider that an accomplishment.

The gym features very few squatters, and in my experience most of those who do squat aren't coming close to doing them the right way (i.e. depth).

If you're squatting knees to parallel and cannot get 5 GOOD reps then rest-pause or simply reduce the weight and do the 5th rep with minimal rest/pause.
I actually have a video of me squatting.

I didn't take it nor did I tell the person too but I got the video. If you want I can some how send it.
I'm famous lol
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Sarcasm. Would you consider that exceptionally muscular though?
