"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.

Is it true that you need to change how you lift every so often in order to keep gaining strength?
 

"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.

You do, however, have to switch up the exercises you do every month or so if you're trying to grow your muscles.

It's a badly-kept secret.
Fiction.

Your muscles aren't as smart as many people give them credit for. Doing a machine curl instead of a barbell curl won't *shock* your muscle into growing. It will hardly even notice the difference. The only think you'd be doing is isolating your bicep more by doing a machine curl (not good in my opinion).

Generally, don't chop and change exercises.

Only change them occassionally to stay motivated.

You don't need to change up exercises to keep growing, I find it helps me to change the excerises adn their order as well with the amount of reps and sets I do. It's all about what works best for you though. Just experiment and see what works, the same stuff doesn't work for everyone.
 

"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.

Yeah, if you want to shock, it's best to do it by upping reps for a couple workouts, or by taking a week off.

I beleive changing your workout helps in a variety of different ways....

every now and then change the order of exercises, the exercises themselves, the reps you're shooting for, and the sets....

it's just something different, i notice gains in myself with a switch things up a bit.

Running and varying your workouts are the perfect solution to most fitness problems.
