"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.

Boys,

Last night in the gym i was doing my regular 'lat pull-downs' when i decided to increase the weight to 90 kgs (i have been doing 12 reps of 85 for the last 2 weeks) when in the first rep i got quite a twinge in my back from a muscle....undeterred by this i carried on going and got another one with the next rep but a bit sharper, i decided to take it back down 5 kgs and the twinges stopped!!

does this mean my back muscles can't stand the weight because my biceps easily stand this weight but it appears the muscles in my back cant...

any advice??
 

"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.

Can you maybe explain what a twinge is?

Wide grip pull-ups are more effective than pulldowns in my opinion. But I guess it all comes down to personal prefference.

no way your biceps can take a weight your back can't handle.

it's a form issue - when doing pulldowns (or pullups) there should be an arch in your back, sternum out, lats flared during the motion.

also you may not have warmed up correctly.
