"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.

do you people do any isolated exercises for forewarms or does it just grow with the compound exsercises you do?
 

"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.

my forearms grew alot from doing chinups and curls. I never did any direct forearm work or nothing though. But you gotta remember everybody is different yours might grow from doing heavy deadlifts.

Wrist rollers are AWESOME for forearms. You'll feel them pumped up right after you use it. It's a great exercise and I highly recommend it. Use heavy weights so that you can only finish the up and then down with the weights. Check if your gym has it, otherwise buy or make your own.

Deadlifts.
 

"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.

Personally I do not.

My forearms have grown plenty from doing exercises such as deadlifts, shrugs, pullups, and stiff legged deadlifts.

I have to do isolated exercises for my forearms or else I can't work with free weights at all.

you have to work the wrist flexors, the brachioradialis, and the wrist extensors to get proportionate forearm growth.

excercises:

2 sets wrist curls - 8 reps
2 sets reverse wrist curls - 8 reps
3 sets of hammer curls - 8 reps or reverse curls with barbell

some parts of the forarm need isolating because deadlifts and chins and other compounds dont stimulate the whole forearm.
