"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.

I tried to incorporate power cleans into my routine, but couldn't nail the form. I dont need them for any athletic purposes, only as part of a powerlifting routine, without a coach the learning curve it just to steep.

From my experience using dumbbells, the learning curve is much lower, I was easily doing DB snatches and swings though only for conditioning and coordination.

Can these movements be effectively incorporated into a mass routine? Like low-rep heavy DB snatches, and cleans and push press for example?
 

"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.

I guess i'm not the only one interested.

I tried DB snatches today from a book I have called Infinite Intensity. Low-rep, high weight. Really felt it in the side shoulders, upper back and legs.

Briefly tried DB cleans, those felt great as well, though with less trap work than BB. Going to try swings, though they seem almost entirely for conditioning, and not appropriate for high weight.

I can see progress coming quickly, it's a lot easier to gain the strength benefits from DBs without mastering the technical aspects of olympic lifts.

Ross is pure gangster. He's more crafty than McGuyver, his videos are filled with 'holy shiit!' moments.

Kerpal, how has the routine been going for you? I know you're focused more on conditioning then size, have any of them worked great for pure strength?

Some of the exercises he lists are pretty hard, especially the 2-handed split lifts. How was the learning curve?
