"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Hey guys, I am not doing squats right now because I was playin basketball and a huge fat dude ran into me from the back, i have had a lil back pain...givin time to recover. In the mean time, if i do leg press? would that be sufficient enough to squats? I know squats are essential and i have to get back on track i just dont want to injure myself right now.

What are some machine exercises that equate to squats, if any?

Thanks All,


Zaraza
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Maybe try machine hack squats, they're back-supported. Leg presses are decent but be careful not to make your injury worse with them, people can injure their back with sloppy leg presses mate.

Yeh be careful like Shaun said. I'd also try and do Glute ham raises if you can, failing that just use a hamstring machine. The ones where your heels go backwards towards your hamstrings.

So something like 3x5 leg press followed by 2x10 for hamstrings.

Do high reps on leg press with light weight, were talking 35+ rep range. Stay with that for 3 months and you'll like what happens.
 

"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.
