Is there a more beautiful exercise than the pullup? This thread is nothing more than a tribute to the simple chin.
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"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.

I do pullups on everything. On the bar in my closet, on holds at the rock wall, on rafters at Safeco Field, hanging from railings..
I love the pullup.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Do you have a bar at home? There's a technique called "greasing the groove" that can help a lot. Let's say you can do five max. Every time you walk by the bar in your house, do two or three easy. Since you never get tired, you can do as many as a hundred a day like this. Some people have doubled their max in a week or two doing this. I went from not being able to do any one-legged squats to two or three with each leg by greasing the groove.mrRuckus said:
Pavel Tsatsouline's "Naked Warrior" covers this well.

Good idea. Ima Grease the grove too... Sounds funny.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Yes. The Squat. The Deadlift. A chick with a banging ass and sexy legs doing straight legged deadlifts. IMO anyways.doctoroxygen said:

Hey fool you're hella stupid. He was right. CHINUPS PALMS IN. Pullups palms out.[S]alvatore said:

Wide grip chin-ups with palms facing out? What category would that fall under with your logic?
"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.

Workout 2, 4th exercise down. This guy has been training for more than 10 years, now are you going to tell me it's poppycock? Bottom line, who gives a fu<k whether they're called chin-ups or pull-ups?
