"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.

The smaller your wrist, the larger your forearms will look once you put some size on them. It allows for more of a "slope", creating the illusion of size.
 

"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.

Yeah, what everyone said.

I have tiny 6.5 inch wrists.
I use to do 160lb wrist curls, and still no growth in the wrist.
I do have 12.5" forearms now, though.

Grip training is about the best you can do. You'll notice the difference.

I would say from your forearms being that size and your wrist size I'd say your arms properly look big.

I've only just started wearing short sleeve t-shirts during the last six months.
I use to have a real complex about my twig arms. I'd always wear long-sleeve shirts and stuff.
The girly wrists still bug me though.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Well that's some **** if ever I heard some.

Small wrists, make the forearm look silly in comparison.

Aw man, I'm cursed with that same condition, skinnywristitis :mad:

Used to think I could do something about it through weights...uh no. Anyone who tells you that you can increase the actual size of your wrists substantially is blowing smoke up your ass.

All you can do is lift and lift heavy, compounds, and build up the parts of your arm that you can affect...this will make your wrists look "bigger" when in fact they are the same skinnyass wrist you had before. It's an illusion dude.

But wrists attached to a muscular arm look much more impressive than the same wrist attached to a spaghetti noodle. Quit fixating on the girth of your wrist, it's a useless waste of time.

Go to this link there is a guy with 6 inch wrist but has 14.4forearms and his looks massive.

Just go down the page and you'll see the picture of his forearm plus it gives ideas on how to build your forearms.

That's pretty wild.

Anyone know what a good exercise would be for the area between the forearm and the biceps?

there's no muscle between the forarm & your biceps, only your elbow.

You obviously cannot increase the size of your elbow, as you cannot increase the size of your wrist.

You want big arms:
*Squat
*Deadlift
*Press
*Row
*Pull-ups/chin-up

It's so simple & effective, most people don't want to believe it.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Forget everything you've read in this thread.

Punch a punching bag-a fairly heavy one, for thirty minutes 2-3 times a week.
With this take two 16 lb dumbells and do half uppercuts and make it burn.

I should know, my wrists grew out of my watch overnight.
