Just a general question. I notice a lot of guys in my gym tend not to do them, especially the heavier guys. It's rare to see a 200lb+ person do them where I go.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
Chinups........how many in a row can you do?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

They are much easier for smaller guys. I remember having a pull-up competition every year in junior high school. The kid who won was always nearly the smallest kid.
The Marines have pull-ups in their physical fitness test, at least for men. The points max out at 20 reps.

I hardly do chin ups as the extra extension required to get chin above the bar hurts my shoulders. This is exacerbated by the fact that I usually do weighted pull ups w/ 90-100 lbs around my waist and have shoulder problems. I do pull ups on a regular basis... where the bar gets to around eye-nose level during the pull phase.
My record for pull ups is 27 in a row. I believe I was in the high 160 lb range at the time. Right now, when I'm fresh I can usually cork out 23-24. Currently body weight is 172. Being lighter definitely helps a lot.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
Max I've done is 3 sets of 8 at the end of a workout. Dead-hang, no hip swing. Maybe 12 in a row if I'm fresh. BW 80kg.
My Dad is very good at this. I saw him pumped out 40 at 56 years old. He said he could do 100 at my age. He's only about 63kg though. That was one of his main exercises as he's never had access to weights or anything fancy.

I do at least four sets when I hit the gym and I average about 13 reps in a set. My max is 17.
