"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.

I couldn't find a better example. But this is kinda how I have to carry ladders. Im dealing with a huge one kow thus I feel like I need more power to carry it.

Again that picture isn't the perfect example as he stands still ,but imagine holding the ladder with two arms while moving.

BITG, what would be the best exercise to carry this easier?

"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.

Hmm...you mean kind of straight out in front of you with your arms extended?

The natural one that is almost the exact same movement pattern would be anterior raises where you either take a DB or cable and pull it straight out in front of you to shoulder height and then back down.

I also like woodchops and reverse woodchops for that, as it targets the front delts and core which would be heavily involved as well. Basically take a DB or cable and go across your body either starting at your waist and ending above the opposite shoulder or starting above your shoulder and ending at the opposite side by your waist. Brace your core while you are doing it as well.

Also other relative general strength movements like deadlifts would probably be helpful as well.
