"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.

Muscle Building - Going up to or beyond failure?

Currently on a clean bulk, most workouts I'd aim for 6-8, or 8-12 reps depending on the exercise.

Within those reps, whats the best way to train? Say failing at the 5th or 6th rep, with a few seconds break and then continue up to 8? Or should I be failing on 8?

If I've got a session booked in with my trainer, sometimes this person gets me to lift weights in excessive amounts, at times to the point I'm doing bursts of 3/4 reps.

Is this a sure way for muscle building or am I lacking in endurence?

I'm getting to the point were I'm no longer getting much DOMS or feeling pumped during a workout with the above method. Is it time to change?

I'm not following an exact rotating plan. Just various exercises and alternating each workout between upper and lower body 3 times a week without repeating the same exercise in the same 7 days, with about 15mins of intense cardio on the days in between (boxing on punch bag or padwork day after leg workout, running after upper body workout, + 1 rest day).
 

"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.

1-5 reps= strength
6-12= hypertrophy/look bigger
12-18= endurance

Find out what you want then go with the rep range you think you want..just keep adding weight to the bar and you should be ok.
