"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.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

There is an on-going argument over the legitimacy of 'lower abs'. It is said that the abs are one muscle group and there is no separation between the upper and lower portion. However if it makes you happier, any excercise that requires your legs to move towards your chest is generally considered a 'lower ab' exercise.

Use google or youtube. This isn't new.

A better place, a better time.
High rep (100, 10x10) front squats tear my abs apart.

Was doing them for quad growth, obviously, but I was ****ing amazed by how much my abs hurt after. Used 125 pounds for 10x10, the time I did this before with about 95 pounds I didn't get that though. Probably a weight issue.

That and the Full Contact Twist ****ing tore me apart.

Fun exercise if you despise sit-ups.

Sprints. Do something like 40m 60m 100m max. Full speed. I guarantee you'll be out of breath by the 3rd run and hurting the next day. Quads, abs (on the side too) and hamstrings at least.
 

"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.

Definitely agree w/ the front squats working the abs, but I find they hit my upper arms and sides mostly. Nevertheless, they are an excellent ab/core stability exercise. Personally, I prefer heavy weight and low reps (100-110 kg x 3-5 reps) for 3 sets. This workout fries my abs.

I also find leg raises from various hanging or parallel bar positions help as well. If you want defined vascular lower abs you have to have low bodyfat, so that's where, diet, cardio and conditioning come in.

The OP can't make up his mind. He wants to bulk, or he wants to cut as you have seen his previous threads. He's already an ectomorph and asking questions like 'hay guyz, how can i see my lwr abbbzzz'

He's not going anywhere with this. I can still see him in the same condition years from now doing bicep curls in the squat rack and crunches wondering why he's not ripped.
