Just heading out to the gym, i did chest and shoulders monday, wondering if it would hurt to do chest again today maybe with diff exercises (wednesday)?
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

twice a week maximum IF you do all the necessaries to help recovery (cardio, stretching, LOTS of food, glutamine if you believe in it etc, etc)
otherwise just stick to once a week
your chest depends on your back and legs getting bigger to grow anyway

It depends on your goals. If you are trying to get ready for a BB comp, then you might lift chest twice a week. If you are just trying to get into shape or are trying to bulk up, hitting each bodypart HARD once per week should be more than enough.

You can make excelent gains by just working each muscle once a week (abs and calves can be worked more, but they're the exception). Divide it up into three sessions a week.
"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.

How many times you work your chest in a week depends on the intensity. You could hit it once a week and annhialate it. Or you could train it 3 times a week, but with less intensity.
Hitting everything HARD once per week should genereally work for everyone if ur doing everything right. I'd recommend at least 2 days rest for chest, more if its still sore.
I used to do once per week for everything but now I'm doing full body twice a week to switch it up: heres my current program (using Brandon Curry's), I'd recommend it to ppl with a couple years experience to shock your body-
Day 1: Chest & Back & Shoulders (Hypertrophy)
Day 2: Legs & Arms (Strength)
Day 3: Rest
Day 4: Chest, Back, Shoulders (Strength)
Day 5: Arms (Hypertrophy)
Day 6: Legs (Hypertrophy)
Day 7: Rest
On Hypertrophy days I do about 7-12 sets per bodypart, using rest-pause techniques on some exercises. On Strength Days, I do 1 HARD exercise per bodypart (e.g. Legs-Full Squats, Lats- Barbell Rows, Chest-Bench Press) 5x5's or 7 sets of 4 reps.
Throw in some abs and cardio when u want to. Getting results from this after only 1 week!

Your chest is the minor 'big' muscle in your body, and relies on your legs and back growing to grow itself.\O/ said:
Want a big chest? Squat and deadlift.
While we're at it: Want big arms? Squat and deadlift.
Want big shoulders? Squat and deadlift.

how long have you been training!?
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
