"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.

"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.

it's a machine for fake (usually incline) bench presses. nautilus is a brand, any machine will give you the same (fake) bench press. removes stabilizer muscles from the equation.

Do yourself a favour and replace that for flat bench press, or incline press. If you don't have a spotter/ power rack/ or you're inexperienced than use the machine until you feel confident enough to put weight over your chest.

Unless you're doing 1 rep on all the presses, thats way too much. Who gave this workout?

Here's my reccomendation: take out the machines presses, do two sets of the bench and two sets of incline bench, then do 75 pushups. Push ups are meant more for endurance. Weightlifting is meant to get you stronger, and best done when you are 100%.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

okay, so you pre-exhaust your pressing muscles with a stupid amount of pushups.. meaning less weight on your main compounds, meaning less overall growth. wonderful! :D
