"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.

Hi,
I've never worked out before (have good height and right weight) but I lack strength. I want to increase my stamina and strength. How should I begin ? Should I join a gym or is swimming a better option ? I don't want to quit/do anything half-heartedly and then quit. Any help would be appreciated.

"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.

No more keyboard jockeying . Action is the place.
look into 5x5 programs. strength is the best way to start out lifting, endless bicep curls will infact NOT give you large biceps. heavy pulling will though. do some research, stay away from bodybuilding.com and welcome to the journey.

If your looking to build strength as well as muscle I would look into a "5x5" program like others mentioned. Theres a few of them out there... I went with Reg Parks program because that is the one Arnold Schwarzenegger followed as a beginner.

Heres a link: http://www.seriouspowerlifting.com/1738/articles/

The next key thing for you is going to be learning "Form" and technique when performing these lifts. Some people will say "X" exercise is bad for because, blah blah blah. Exercises can only turn out bad from going too heavy or using bad form.. Keep it simple and learn as you go.
