"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Getting one of these.

Already have 7ft Olympic bar and bench with plenty of dumbbells. Only problem is the equipment if kept at my workplace in a spare office, drilling into the walls for a pull up bar is not an option, neither is using a bar that fits into a door frame.

Has anyone has attempted pull ups this way? By putting the squat rack on the highest setting with a couple of weights to keep it balanced.

Have considered a power cage, but again equipment must be easily moveable then I've got the hassle of selling my current bench and missing out on leg curls/extensions.
 

"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.
