"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.

A2g was never meant literally. As low as you can go at whatever feet width you use. It's just generally doing the lift in the full range of motion like most every other lift.

And of course like other lifts, sometimes it is smart to train 'parts' of the lifts in order to strengthen the weak points of the full lifts. Like different height boxes for box squats, 2-3-4-etc board presses with bench press, and rack deadlifts.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

mark rippetoe says if you are truly doing ass to grass for real, you are splitting your knees apart :)
Sure it is.

And loading the bar with 1200lbs and doing 1 inch squats is a great idea. :crazy:

what gave you that idea? i think you misinterpret what i wrote. if you think you have the credibility and background to argue against rippetoe, you truly are a master of the barbell.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
