"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I was doing it the other day and I felt where the forearm and the biceps/triceps section join (the opposite side of the elbow) like if I had cords inside my arm that were snapping.

I have no pain today except the usual after a hard workout (same muscular pain in the other arm that didn't have the "snapping").

It's weird... it used to happen around 2 years ago when I stopped training, but now it's stronger, maybe because I restarted training.

What do you guys think it may be?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Not sure what you mean, were you using a sensible weight, or throwing your whole body into the movement?

I was using a high weight for me with very good technique, using the bench, you know the one where your arm ends up being almost perpendicular to the floor? You do the excercise sitting.

thats not hammer curls that is preacher curls, and its normal on that to feel funny, personally i find that exercise useless.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Yeah I have the same problem. The ligaments and tendons kinda "vibrate" at one point in the movement. It feels weird.
Could be overstress or improper arm alignment.
