"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

chins works bis as a secondary muscle.

Bis exercises are much better because it works them as a PRIMARY muscle.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

what that means is that in chins your back does more of the work than the biceps....so in doing heavy barbell curls YOUR BICEPS WILL BE WORKED MUCH HARDER THAN WHEN YOU DO CHINS!!!
Replace chins with pullups and you got it down pat ... but when I do chins I always feel it in my biceps a LOT more than in my back, even when I do other back workouts in the same day. Not to mention, the hypertrophy in my biceps was quite a bit more noticeable than in my back.

A back workout, even if done properly, is going to exhaust or come close to exhausting your biceps too. I only do a few biceps sets to finish off my bis after a back workout.

Probably the latter. I have done primarily olympic lifting for the last 3 years but no bicep training.

Agreed with Bigforearms. Another thing, the fact that it is multijoint will cause a larger surge in GH and testosterone, which in itself will help promote size building.
 

"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.

Where I be at
I don't know what it is called but there is one bicep one a frined told me about where you start at the hip, and then curl towards your chest on the opposite side, and you hold for a second or two and the release. Anyone know what it is called?

Also I do the normal curls and the ones where you tweak at the top. Can anyone suggest any other ways (w/ descriptions, # of repetitions and sets) to build mass? I usually do 1 set of 20 normal biceps curls, with 15 lbs but that hasn't seemed to help me too much
