“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
leg excersise without jeopardizing my growth
- Thread starter eax5
- Start date
if you squat with heavy heavy weight for prolonged periods, your spine will compress to bear the load of the weight, if your plates are still open you will prematurely cause a fusing of your spine reducing the chance of growth in your torso.
legg press is a good alternative to squats while you are still growing but not perfect.

Don't worry, squats won't stunt your growth. But if will make you feel better, just go ahead and hang upside down from a bar after your squat workout.
****, if anything, squats will probably make you taller, being that when you workout hard like that you are circulating a lot more growth hormone.
I lifted weights all throughout my teen years, and I ended up 6-2 at nineteen.

Differing Oppinions
This is definatelly a touchy subject and there are many different views and oppinions when it comes to stunting your growth but what i've grown to believe is: no it does not stunt your growth.
All the tests that have been conducted leave no evidence that lifting stunts your growth, but then again, finding evidence of such a thing is a very difficult process.
There has been studies which attempt to say that lifting (especially compound movements) have the tendancy to prematurely fuse your bone plates, which ultimately leaves you smaller then if you never lifted.
Personal trainers told me this, but still i believe it doesn't stunt your growth b/c of the lack of evidence to support their claims.

Just because a woman listens to you and acts interested in what you say doesn't mean she really is. She might just be acting polite, while silently wishing that the date would hurry up and end, or that you would go away... and never come back.

Lifting absolutely does not stunt your growth. There are an abundance of scientific studies out there that support this statement.
