"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.
How much ya bench?

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Yah the barbell bench press restricts your shoulder movement by keeping your hands stationary on that bar. The dumbbells allow free movement and rotation of your shoulders.
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

lol and where do you get this information, flat bench should be the focus of your workout, although I do stress the other exercises for isolation after the bench part is done, but that is like the other guy said, it would be like saying squats are mediorcre, and we should do leg press instead, although dumb bells are good for bench press, you need flat bench, cause dumb bells are more for your triceps, cause you keep them closer to the body

Well, both BB and DB bench press both have their place, but as far as functionality go, I prefer the DB. Also, when I do DB presses, my pecs really feel a burn. You are allowed to stretch them more, increasing the ROM (Range of Motion) in your pecs which in turns causes more TUT (Time Under Tension). This all leads to an increase in muscle break down and an increase in compound strength. However, you are correct in the fact that you can use a much wider grip when using a barbell.

I am training for overall performance, and endurance... not strength. Running, situps, and pushups are my staples.

"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.

Ah correct on that one. Never really understood why people like distance. Me? 100 and 200m only please.

I am training to join the military soon. That is why i am particularly focusing on endurance excersises...
I dont want to get my butt handed to me during PT.
I think im making good progress so far... since im going to wait about a year or so to finish up my associate and go rotc...
started out barely able to do 20 situps, now i can do 60 after 15 min of countless crunches, bicycle kicks, flutter kicks and such. ( i probably should measure myself while i am fresh for an accurate reading)
2 mile run was a dismal 22.43... now im down to 18.12... not too bad after a month.

After only a month? That's actually quite a large improvement. Overdistance (running at least 25% farther than your target distance) often helps with endurance aspects of running.
