"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.

"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.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Hey KingDoughnut!
Yeah its a good idea to train your rotator cuffs to prevent injury. I had pain in my right shoulder too. Prevention is better than not be able to work out for a long time. Right now i'm doing only one exercize. I don't know the english term, maybe something like greet with both hands?
Anyhow it would be better to ask a trainer to show them to you, because it's hard to describe.
Bye

There was a post on this earlier on this board. Look that up and also look up info on a google search. There is plenty of good info on strenghtening your rotator cuff.

Then try this split. All complementary muscles:

Chest-Delts-Tris
Cuff-Bis-Lats
Hams-Quads-Lower Back
Abs-Calves-Forearm

Or something to that effect.
