"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.
Guid to one armed push ups?

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
"The Naked Warrior" can be your guide
Doing 100 pushups doesn't mean you are very strong at all. First you will have to start with higher-intensity pushups.
Try doing ones with your legs elevated to make them harder.
Along with those, start doing one handers where you make the movement easier, such as leaning against a kitchen counter to give you more leverage.
Gradually add tougher moves until you can start doing one-handed negatives(come down as slow as possible).
Then in time you will be able to do a one hander
For the balance part, just make sure to tense up your entire body, especially at your abdomen
Start with doing the elevated-feet puhsups and also bring your hands closer to work the triceps more. These should be quite challenging

You have to spread your legs, turn your torso in the opposite direction of the arm you are pushing up with, and make sure to keep your legs and torso ridgid. Your arm has to be almost directly under you.
I still do those, although not as part of my resistance training. Try doing 1 armed on fingertips. THAT is hard as hell.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Apparently the hardest pushup is where you do a one hand pushup and as you come up you clap
