"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
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.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Bench Press, Incline bench press ( bench press works chest but also triceps), push ups, cross cable press, hell there are a ton of exercises that work the triceps. Just do a google search.
Many people do not work their triceps enough and just focus on biceps. You can gain quite the arm size with defined tri's.

Lt. Dan, STOP LIFTING.
DO NOT LIFT ANOTHER WEIGHT.
Now that I've got your attention, you need to educate yourself before you lift another weight. "Lifting a weight over your head" is not only gonna do JACK for your muscle mass, it's gonna get you hurt.
When it comes to lifting, the first rule is to always practice proper form. If you're not, you're wasting your time...you may as well be eating Krispy Kremes on the couch. First, go out and get a book, or better yet, join the Fitness Forum @ Menshealth.com. It's a great place for the beginner...I've been around there for a while now.

it's an AMAZING site. Learn proper form, it's lame to get hurt...and then, when you know what you're doing, back to the weights

"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.

I believe the name of the lift you're talking about is the seated tricep press. Does this sound like it:
"Sit on a bench with a straight back, feet flat on the floor, and back firmly against the bench. Grasp one end of a dumbbell with both hands (palms up) and raise it above your head, locking the elbows. With your elbows held in place and squared, slowly lower the dumbbell behind your head until you feel a stretch in your triceps. Press the weight back up, following a slight arc until the elbows lock and the weight is once again about your head."

It was one of my favorites for the triceps, but I had to use a lot of weight. If you're doing it right it will hit them well - there's a picture of it on the site Neo mentioned. Having a spotter is definitely a good idea on this one if you're using much weight.
