"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.

Has anyone had any trouble doing squats or deadlifts using a smith machine. My gym is getting one and I am getting tired of doing dumbell squats. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

How about barbell squats? the king of exercises. I would only suggest the smith machine if there is absolutely no way of doing the exercise with free weights. The fixed range of motion on the smith prevents the use of your stabilizer muscles.

Thanks for the advice but my gym does not have a squat rack (or even a barbell!). It sucks cause my uni gym was great it had a squat rack two bench presses (incline and normal) and a smith machine. Plus loads of bumbells and flat benches. My home gym is mostly machines, and to top it off I signed a 1 yr contract!

I will see how much form I lose by doing dumbell squats vs smith machine. But I understand what you mean about stabilizer muscles not being used with the fixed motion of smith machine.

I really want to add more compound excersizes to my workout but dont have the capability at my local gym.
