"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.

Hey guys just thought I'd post here as I've finnally resembled a good home gym.:yes: Been a number of years in the making but Now i can say I own-

Bench
squat rack
machine that includes: Peck deck, leg press, latpull downs and knee extensions (although I never use the last one)
2 sets of changeable dumbells
stationary bike
50kg punching bag
floor to ceiling speed ball
one spare barbell
Focus pads
6x20 kg plates
6x 10kg plates
2x5 kg plates
6x7.5 kg plates
8x 2.5 kg plates
2x 4 kg ankle weights
skipping rope
brand new set of running spikes also.


Feels like all I'm after now is a roman chair/ chinup bar. I do chinups however off the squat rack at the moment though so its still doable.
 

"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.

What about micro plates? 1.25kg and 0.5kg.

Do you always add at least 5kg to the bar whenever you increase your weight?

Micro plates help when your progression starts to stall by enabling you to still increase your weight on the bar but by adding a smaller amount each time.

Yes.... I dont progress until being able to complete 4x5 with proper form on any of the compound lifts such as bench, squats and deadlifts.
 

"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.

Cool, I'd skip the roman chair and get a Glute Ham Raise instead. You can use it as a Reverse Hyper and both of these units are invaluable to anyone who is serious about training.

It is said that it is hard to put a price on health and well being but it is a lot easier to put a price on the means of getting healthy. If you can not afford the annual fees of health clubs or if you do not find the local gym timings suitable or if you simply prefer to work out in the privacy of your home you can acquire the home gym of your dreams.

It is said that its harder to put a amount on ones bloom and well-being, but it’s a lot easier to put a amount on the agency of accepting healthy! If you cant allow the six-figure anniversary fees of bloom clubs, or if you don't acquisition the bounded gym timings suitable, or if you artlessly adopt to plan out in the aloofness of your home, you can access the home gym of your dreams.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
