"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.
Excess sets or just right?

"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.

Sets & Repsinsidious said:What is the point of 4 sets vs. 3?
Is that 4th set really worth it, or can you accomplish in 3 what you can in 4?
Sets x reps = volume
Volume stresses your body, forcing it to adapt (GROW)
How much volume do you need to stress your body so it grows?
Beginners can't handle volume well, therefore start low:
-bodybuilding: 3 sets of 8
-strength/mass: 5 sets of 5
Both equal ~25 reps.
Next
The more you advance, the more volume you can take. Where a beginner will have heavy soreness from squatting 3times a week, advanced trainees can handle daily squat sessions without feeling much soreness.

They tried 1 to 6 sets.
The magic number was four sets per exercise for optimum strength and mass.
No joke.
I wish I could scan the article. But I feel comfortable at four sets.
"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.

Your body adapts to stress. Stress = reps * sets * weights. When it adapts, you'll need more stress to progress.Interceptor said:I did read an actual scientific study that compared number of sets to results in strength and mass.

That's why olympic weightlifters do 7 workouts a week with two sessions a day.
