"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.

@ Kerpal you dont need a source for anything, your smart enough to understand the point i was trying to make.
 

"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'd still like to see some kind of source that squats overdevelop the inner thigh & glutes and cause the hamstrings & quads to lag.
You truly must be naive. He was merely setting an example of what happens for some people. No one is exactly the same when it comes to body mechanics. One person could get decent overall leg development from squatting, the next guy not so much. Nice red herring (haha yes I just said that) bringing in my numbers. Also a logical fallacy saying I bash peoples strength training routines. When I haven't. I've only criticized the biased, close minded and at times dogmatic thoughts I've seen here many times.

and

I could shove this in your face; I incline barbell press for reps what you pretty much are flat benching , whilst being much, much lighter.


LOL@ J. Darko bashing Drum&Bass. The guys lifts and numbers in his log speak for himself. He's one of the few who actually has vids and you're in here rambling about a 315/320 lb squat and ankle injuries? I'm squatting that right now and I feel it's petty weight when my buddies are hitting 405 + and deadlifting 600+ lbs for reps like no ones business. Oh they always did some isolation work alongside their main lifts too through out their years training OH NOOOO!!!?! Don't even think one of them has touched a full body routine like rippetoes. Some of them don't even know who Mark Rippetoe is.

Squat doesn't develop your quads and hammies? Wow, that's news to me.

That'd explain the lack of quad development on Olympic weightlifters: http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1106/1410872951_27bc2c3002.jpg

Those poor guys don't have access to any leg press machine or hamstring curls, therefore they have tiny legs, but huge glutes and inner thighs... Because all they do is squatting 3 times a day.

They also have a weak back because they don't do bicep curls.

lol I never thought D&B's post was going to be taken out of context like this. It is all pretty damn funny, just to say the least.
 

"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.
