"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I was wondering, it's true that using compound exercises like the Squats, Deadlifts etc., releases growth hormones but my question is the weight used in order to release this growth hormone.

Lets say for example you have a guy whose known as a skinny bones and weighs soak in wet 120 pounds and is 5-10 and his Squat is 90 pounds his Deadlift is 100 does this release the growth hormones for that person in comparsion to say someone who is much taller weighs more and deadlifts close to his body weight?

Or does it all depend on how the weight feels to the individual deadlifting, squatting and the challenges the individual feels with the weight used that releases this growth hormone and then his diet I guess plays a big part in this too?

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.

Don't over think it. Get on a good routine, get your diet together and increase your squat and deadlift, you'll get the growth benefits for sure.

you do YOUR 5 rep max on deads and 8 rep maxes on squats and it will release large amounts of hormones. Diet is EXTREMELY important, eat lots of whole unprocessed clean foods and you will be putting on mass in no time. By a lot, I mean A LOT like 6 good meals a day, NO JUNK!
