"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

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..
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

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.
