Hey people, What muscle do we use to twist our torso around the vertical axis. Are that what the side stomach muscles are for?
"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.

Those muscles are called the obliques and they are used to stabilize side to side motions of the upper body.

where are these muscle located and how can I strengthen them?

You can strengthen them by doing any one of these exercises:
1. torso twists (stay in a half sit-up position, arms extended with a medicine ball in your hand, then twist from side to side.)
2. side crunches (lay on your side with your hands behind your head and move your top elbow towards your feet, squeezing your sides. Remember to do both sides.)
3. Any other variations to sit-ups where rotation is involved.

Your Obliques are your "love handles", or on the sides for your stomack.
"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.

Use the following two exercises to strengthen the obliques (use dumbbells for the second one if you have no kettlebell access)

It's like u hold a db in one hand (let's say left) N u let your torso go sideways (so the db goes down) then u 'pull the db up with your upperbody.
