"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Alright I want to change up my routine. It seems like going every other day to lift is working wonders and I want to keep it that way. But my shoulders and chest are the biggest looking muscles on me so I want to get my legs and arms up to par, and strengthen my back also. Taking priority over my shoulders and chest.
I know squats are the best leg execise, but would you guys rank as second and third most effective?
In order to really develop my arms should I hit tri's and bi's on the same day?
and finally what are your guys money execises for the back?

"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.

if you want wings and a cut look then swim butter-fly and do pull-ups. added bonus: you won't slip a disk on the free-weights

w&d -- my coach used to say, "curls are for girls" but cut triceps rock

"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.

You probably ****ed up your back because you did them wrong. ALMOST all people including myself do deadlifts wrong in the beginning or because someone does not tell them the absolute essential secret.

No matter what you do, DO not LOOK down during a dead lift. You absolute must look forward and keep your head up the entire time. If you look down, your back will round and arch and it will damage your spine. This is the most common cause of spinal injury/neck injury on the deadlift. Be careful. Good luck recovering =)
