"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.

Right after I do a set of dips, I feel pain in my shoulders for a couple seconds. Its never during a set, its right after. Last for 1-2 'alligators' (time is takes to say 2 alligators).

My shoulders are pretty flexible, and I never have pain during any other shoulder exercises like upright rows (when I used to do em).
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Get to know and listen to your body and when you get to know your body you will realize that their are different kinds of pain, so why suffer, do another exercise for triceps / chest.

Yeah the same thing used to happen to me. I just ignord it until it went away after a few months. I've had many rotator cuff problems with others sports (swimming mostly). Your shoulder will get stronger, I just wouldn't do 10 sets of dips until it starts feeling better

Same thing used to happen to me with my forearms while doing straight bar curls. I had no problems during the set but as soon as I set the weight down I got really sharp pains.

Dips are not a tricep isolation movement like so many people think. It is a full upper body compound movement. Your shoulders are most likely the "weak link." Maybe try lowering your head while you do them, this will put more work on your chest.
 

"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.

dips can do a number on your shoulders once your weight gets up there..
