"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.

Im 16, i currently rep 175 - 5 times on the bench press. I last maxed out at 205. Do you think I can have a max of 300+ within 2 years?

(i want to go for the school record, its somewhere above 300 lbs)

Is this possible for me to do?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Well its more than 300, its possibly 330+ I want to break that record! I know I can if I train hard enough!
If your goal is strength, you are going to have to train for strength. Make sure you realize this. Also too, it's great to have goals, but dont set yourself up for failure by shooting to extremes.

Take it one step at a time or you'll be disappointed. At the same time too, you'll probably have to have some size on you. There aren't too many 18yr olds pushing out 330lbs. There are only going to be a select few who can do this.

Lots of this goal will be genetics and training. Some people no matter how hard they try wont ever be able to get to something like that. I've seen guys who struggle to put up their own bodyweight at 175lbs or 200lbs.

What ever the case my be, FIRST AND FOREMOST concentrate on just beating YOUR personal record and going at it that way. Shoot for 5lbs a week or every 2 weeks. And dont think that every couple of weeks you will just keep going up. You will plateau and you will then have to change some things up.

Thanks man, great post. My goal has been to raise 5 lbs every couple of weeks, thats how I raised my bench from 155 to 175 in less than a month. Rippetoes program is pretty legit if you ask me...
 

"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 man, I hope u got an alright bf%. Because at 16years and 300lbs, that doesnt sound too good. :eek:

Good luck on the goal. If you're really 300lbs with a lowish bf%, then benching ur body weight + 30lb should definately be possible.
 

“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.
