"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.

"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.

I guess its part of the learning curve,as we progress,we tend to find d stuff that works for our bodies and make adjustments to it.
Like ive found that all pressing movements with a dumbell,give me shoulder problems,whereas barbells are fine.
Or my scapula doesnt like dips.i like dips but i stay away from it.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

love that momoent when you notice your gainzzzzswitch said:
my medial delt is lagging, but I cant do lateral raises for it - bone catches on the inside. I just do the things I CAN do, that engage it a little.
Rear delts - I hit a standing row with wide grip, you'll feel them tear up. then do rear delt fly to finish them - get a good ole pump.

hmm what about a press? i simply hate dumbells so i was thinking of a behind the neck press or a similar variation to hit the rear delt...Purefilth said:love that momoent when you notice your gainzzzz

"FVCK OFF ASSHAT, IF I SEE YOU HERE EVER AGAIN,THAT GYM BUNNY HAS TO STITCH YOUR ASS WITH DUCT TAPE"

My personal best with a 20-rep breathing squat was 105 kg x 20 at a bodyweight of 77 kg , and I had a 200-210 kg DL at the time.
3 plates for 20 is an amazing feat though... I don`t think I`ve ever seen anyone do it and I`ve been around world-class athletes!!!!
Also seems funny that your gym squat record is 110 x 1... I`ve cleaned that before at a bodyweight of 82 kg. Haha maybe you should find a new gym, doesn`t seem like you belong there!

parallel squats. just below parallel. i make sure to hit the safety bar thingies.Purefilth said:
depression.depression and more depression. ive been down pretty badly lately since i HATE THIS FVCKJING SH!THOLE.Fuglydude said:
i have to bear up my BS job for another year. the locals here are absolute retards.my family has abandoned me , friends are assh0les...lots of things.
on thursday i was in a good mood after a very long time,... hence the PR.if you notice ive been sitting on 100-110 for like 4 months now...
so i have had the potential for a very long time,hell i could even compete but its my brain thats holding me back.
the people here suck at pretty much everything. ,my gym is full of faggots which ive started to refer to as "gymboys", .anyway its near my house, like 5 mins away so its convenient.but the people in it are weak as a kitten.
actually the 110kgs PR was boasted by the trainer , but seeing his frame i doubt its a parallel even,maybe he had done it as a partial...no joke, these people are like twigs. the rack is of low quality and at weights above 130 it literally "bounces back and forth like a cradle".
the local campus has a gym and a supposedly talented faggot...he squats 500lbs while looking like a sweat towel soaked in molten mars bars and smelling like athlete's foot pickled in mayonnaise. its pretty far away and there are even more "gymboys" there.
i should check it out though.
edit : my current weight is 85 kgs

Awesome work man. I'll be proud when I can get 140kg for 1, let alone 20. And you already did 5 sets before AND after.switch said:
You can't help these people, best bet is to ignore them. Once the "interaction" is over, put it out of your mind. Don't let it stew inside you, you'll feel worse.switch said:
"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.
