"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

During my time as a tennis player, I used that thing:

(well, not exactly that one ... omg forget these fvcking LEDS and sound effects plz ^^)
it became pretty mainstream some years after I first used it, but I think it's worth the money... at least for improving your grip strength when playing tennis.

easiest & cheapest way to beat up your forearms is to do farmer's walks (pick up the heaviest pair of dumbbells from a rack, walk away until you can't stand it, pick 'em up again and walk back).

grippers develop crushing strength, not grip strength. they're not the same thing at all unless you train with grippers in a particular way (rather than doing reps you do a full or partial close and hold it for a minute or two).

if you want to develop grip strength you can do heavy DB/BB holds, plate pinches, farmers walks, etc.

for me, the only thing I do is NOT use straps on anything. eventually your grip will develop on it's own once you start holding on to heavy weights for a minute or more at a time.

honestly most of my grip strength and forearm size came from raw deadlifts. like this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=vEVMDIRHe9A
