"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Anyone here experience joint pain doing skull crusher with an ezbar? I feel like only my joint area is getting all the workout. Now when I use my dumbell, its a differnt story. It work much better for me.

I bought the ezbar just for skull crusher but I think I'll just stick with dumbell :(
 

"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.

i stopped doing them years ago because of similar pain. I am not sure if my form was off or if its just the nature of the exercise. There are so many tricep exercises that finding an effective substitute is painless.

Dont do them with a bar. Always do them with a Dumbell and dont bend your elbows past 90 degrees.

Is this when you're standing? Or the skull crunches?

How are you doing them??

I had some joint/elbow pain and shoulder pain until I rotated the exercise back a little with some reading I did. In essence, push the bar straight off your chest, and then with your arms straight, move it backwards (toward your head) about 6 inches, so that your arms are at a semi-angle... this is your starting and ending position for each rep. Takes a lot of direct downward pressure off the shoulders and the elbows.
