"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I started moving weights 2-3 month ago & got very encouraging results.
I want to do squats in order to achieve an overall bulking.
Due to retrictions of time, place & money I do not have a two-handed bell (yet) (barbell ?) & do not go to the gym.

my question is: what's the shortcoming of doing squat-excercises with two one-handed bells (dumbells ?) in you hands, arms hanging down? Since the weight is connected to you shoulders you should have the same effect on the back-muscels etc.

any way to do it better?

right or wrong?

thanks,

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

The shortcoming as I see it is that you get a smaller rate of movement and you can't do ATTG squats. Grip will be an issue too, especially when you start climbing weights.

Well first off, dumbell squats have some advantages.

They will be similar in action to trap bar deads, taking the strain off the lower back.

It's a fine way to build grip strength, balance and co-ordination.

You don't need a squat rack.


Now the bad news. As someone has mensioned, your grip won't keep up with your squatting progress, so you may want to start using straps when you really get into the poundage.

They can be ungainly and difficult to manage, you may even run out of space on your bells if you really get going.

Don't forget you can do other similar exercises with dumbells.


Lunges, step ups and most fave hip belt squats (the dumbell is on a chain attatched to a lifting belt.

You can progress no end with these, but sure at some stage a barbell will be the ticket.
 

"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'd imagine you'll have quite a bit of trouble picking them up at the ground.

Remember to keep your back straight.
