"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Worlds strongest man.

I know this is a bit late, but it was kept pretty quiet and the family didn't want much publicity. Had no idea until I did a search on him today.

Apparently he dropped dead from a heart attack after a high rep squat set.

Great athlete, great father, pretty much just a great man.

Spectacular video.. No one should have to die at that age, least of all a true champion like him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-YuI1bYmdI

I think this is a good time to say that this forum is dedicated to Health and Fitness. In that order.
 

"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.

Damn man that sucks.

Reminds me of that one young soccer player.

I don't remember the guy's name but he had shoulder length blonde hair and just had a heart attack out on the field and died instantly.

If he's the kid that was on MTV True Life, I feel really bad now.

NVM, now I see who it is. He almost beat MP in the strongest man comp lately. Sorry to hear.

In hell. I'm Satan's lover.
rip Marunde. I hope his family will be alright. Anyone know if he had previous complications that could have aroused his cod or was it just the workout? And p.s. his form brings a second tear to my eyes, so good =). My condolences.

"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.
