"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.

I know this kid, who loves basketball and has the idea that he can make the ultimate workout that will enable him to get into top form. He has3 day splits that looks like this


Mon
squats
front squats
good mornings
stiff legged deadlift
and weighted calf raises at a bunch of different angles

tues
30 minute biking
20 minute stairs
3 diff ab exercises
3 plyometric exercises that i dont know the name of

WEdns
bench
inclince dumbell
dips
military press
skull crushers

thurs
same as tues

fri
deadlift
powerclean
barbell row
pullups
chinups
barbell row.

then sat and sun he has agility speed drills and basketball drills which i imagine an intsense 3 to 5 hours



Now from my point of view it doesnt look that bad but the fact hes doing somethin everyday wouldnt allow time to rest and when i told him that he says he gets 9 hours of sleep.

hes 6 ft like 180 lbs and rather lean like me.

what could he expect from a routine like this? any increase in strength or vertical?
 

"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.
