"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.

It's been done.. Some pro athletes (football players) have done it.

They were able to get their size without the use of major weights and such (meaning they would use their own body mass against them)

I forget what it's called, but what would be the best exercises they did?

I sorta hate the gym and lifting weights, ill use a dumbell and stuff, but I'm mad small as it is, when i get to be buff, i want to try to do it sans most weights, and do it on my own plan. It's a personal goal I'd have to say.


So, what is it called and what are the main exercises used when doing htis?
 

"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.

Dream on. Get your ass in the gym.

Oh yeah and Bo Jackson and Herschel Walker DID lift weights. They are full of shyt for saying otherwise. So basically you are naive enough to believe that they went through 12-15 years of organized football (HS, college, pros) WITHOUT EVER HITTING THE WEIGHT ROOM?? I wonder how many D-1 football coaches let their athletes get away with that.. oh yeah.. NONE.

Wake the fukk up, dude. Big weight = big muscle.

LOLOL Diesel you kill me!

Maybe, this might possibly would work if you were on the most potent steroids your body could handle. Otherwise, from what I've learned, your muscle has to be stressed and breakdown then be repaired to grow bigger.

Yeah that Herschel thing was always pretty suspect. But I can tell you one thing, I sure as hell don't have the genetics of a Herschel Walker and most people don't

What's the mean, hit the F ING Gym and quit looking for the easy way out!

no, i hate going to the gym and watching people ****ing drool over their own muscle.

I have a reason i want to get bulky, and it has somewhat of a reason of me being so small, but it's also a personal reason that will affect my future greatly in a certain way.



I did kinda think that it was Bull****, Hershal walker was the guy who i aw on an interview about it, oh well... Ill get a weight bench for my birthday. I cant find my damn weight for my dumbell, and im getting tired of lifting weights that are too damn light.
