Hey all...my knee has been giving me some problems lately so I was going to lay off heavy squatting for the next week. Any good replacement exercises I can do to get the same (or near same) benefits of squats?
"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.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
If you're getting pains on the insides of your knees, you need to work your core (abs). I got that so I started training abs frequently, sometimes nearly everyday of the week, and I rarely experience pain there anymore.
If you're getting that cracking or grating sound in the knees as you squat with or without weights, u need to strengthen your quads. So possibly try out deadlifts, leg extensions, farmers walk, leg pressing, possibly lunges (first try this one out, see if it doesn't bother your knees). Even if you aren't getting any of those problems I mentioned, try these other lifts out.

I've been upping my the weight on my squats a lot recently, so I'm probably losing proper form at the sake of higher weights. I'll drop some weight and see if it's my form thats off.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
