Anyone here experience elbow pain when lifting heavy? It seems to be related to exercises that require a strong grip like deadlifts and pull ups. It's not debilitating but it does seem to be getting worse.
"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, 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.

Do you lock or wrap your thumbs around the bar when you lift?
If you do, stop that.

Take fish oil and be sure to do warm up sets. Warm up sets wet up the joints so it will prepare you for your heavy sets.

Go see a doctor man, sounds like you have tennis elbow. I developed tennis elbow back in early Oct from lifting too heavy with bad form. Now my elbow hurts when I squeeze and lift stuff.

If it hurts, STOP! Either your doing the exercise in-correctly, going too heavy or the exercise isnt meant for you, pick another. Sometimes, there will be some pain and you just kinda push through it and go on with your training. Depending on how you feel.. maybe you need some time off to heal, do you have an injury?
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Yes, try using magnesium oil along with higher doses of Vitamin D and K2...mine was related to soft tissue calcification and went away completely within a few weeks of starting this after having dealt with it for almost a year and a half...
Also my hair has started regrowing where my bald spot was...apparently calcification of the capillaries providing blood to the hair follicles is a major cause of hair loss very few realize...
