"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

So I've been Crossfitting it for about 1 1/2 months now. Prior to that I followed a pretty consistent training split.

One of the workouts of the day (WOD), was 135lb Clean and Press, 30 reps for time. I have done this workout 3 times now, and my times are improving each time. Last night I managed a 5:30. I know it doesn't sound impressive but please don't knock it til you try it.

Just a sample of the ease and simplicity of CrossFit. Like I did some more after that, but that was the core of my workout..
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Has it translated into increased power? In addition to the endurance rise.

A clean and jerk is a high coordination exercise. Using it in EDT (energy dense training aka crossfit) is quite dangerous in my opinion.

Definitely an increase in power.. I am down to just under 4 minutes for the 30 reps of clean and press.. Also started off setting the load so its 50/40. For instance do 5 reps, jump over bar and do 5 more. Alternate until you have completed the total of 30 reps.

Just a warning, this is rough and I do not recommend starting heavy.
