"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.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

i was doing a close grip bench press yesterday, doing like 8 reps. i was doing it fast and all of a sudden my left shoulder cracked and shifted into a different postion. immdiatley i started feeling alot of pain and had to rack it up as my shoulder popped back into place. i now realized that this happened because i didnt position my elbows against my side. but now when i attept to do a military press my shoulder hurts coming down and when i do like a tricep pushdown my shoulder hurts, but there is no pain when i lift it up. anyway everything is fine, its just soreness now and everything feels back into place. but has anyone ever expericned this?
 

"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.

sharp, shooting pain is nature's way of telling you to cut that the **** out.

stop all upper-body lifting, immediately, and investigate what really happened to your shoulder, take the time to make sure you know what happened & what will fix it. i suggest a doctor, this is the sort of thing they're good at.

if you insist on self-diagnosis, start here:

ask crazyasian why trying to lift your way through a shoulder injury is a Bad Idea

I know what your talking about. The same exact thing happend to me when I was doing incline dumbell presses a while ago. it scared the **** out of me. I stopped lifting for a while and after 3 weeks I resumed lifting. I say warm up before lifting weights.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

i agree with guaya although 3 weeks might be long if you're on a strict regimen.

the next session (try to give yourself a few days break, seems like it's been 2 days since this happens so maybe another day or two) start _really_ slow with low weights warming up, and start to up it from there. if everything seems normal, you should be good.

if it still hurts like a *****, i think a doctors visit is going to be worth it in the long-run so you dont seriously **** up anything and take months to fix
