"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.

Can I get some feedback and critique please.

Just started doing squats.

I'm only doing 2 reps, because I'd already completed my sets for the squats. Doing 50kg, I can easily do more weight, but don't want to add weight if I'm not squatting correctly.

Thanks

"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.

Thanks for replying.

I find it difficult to balance the bar any lower, but I'll have a go from now on, just keep at it until I get it I guess.

It looks like your twisting ever so slightly when you approach parallel which means one side of your abs is compensating for the other. Some hard ab work can help you with this.

And always remember to keep your weight firmly on your heels when squatting, don't let your weight shift to your toes or to the inside of your feet.
