"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I'm 5'6 and can lift 35 lb on each side but thats my max. Does my height have anything to do with me having a harder time to lift more weight?
 

"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.

No your lack of strength has to do with you not lifting more.

Height plays a role in weight, and your weight plays a role how much you can compound lift.

So yes, it does play a role, but it can be fixable.

Numerous things can affect your bench press. Without seeing you bench or have any knowledge about you... Check your form, make your you are setting up correctly and using proper technique. This could instantly increase your bench. Or maybe your over-training. You could need to gain weight, it can be lots of things....

What are you currently doing for ur bench?

Being short (5'6) and thus having shorter arms actually gives you an advantage over taller people with longer arms in benching since your range of motion is much smaller.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
