"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.

I like the "old skool" olympic lifts. There's nothing better than doing snatches & cleans in a workout... NOTHING!!!

Anybody else do these?

Apparently they are the best exercises an athlete can do.

Cleans and deadlifts are AWESOME exercises. You will build
your core strength doing these which for some reason just makes you stronger in every other exercise you do. I think they also make your muscle thicker or denser if that makes sense -- all good.

I actually prefer deadlifts because there is less movement and I worry about injury when I do cleans. And, obviously, you can pile on more weight with deadlifts than cleans. I never do snatches (although I'm a huge fan of snatch in general) again because there is too much movement and I'm worried about back injury even though I've never injured my back. It just feels like I might when I do snatches.

"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.

They're awesome. Right now though I'm not doing either, I'm only doing grind exercise routines (chins, dips, squats) and kettlebells, and workouts with a 100 pound medicine ball.

Power cleans are definately up there with squats and deadlifts for sure, they will not only build you a great looking body, but will also give you fantastic strength in the future. It is no surprise that all three are events in the world strongest man competitions.

If you just tried the snatch for the first time, you're not much of a DJ are you?
