"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'm a beginner to working out and can't understand some terms here. Can anyone explain what they mean? And also recommend some excercises?
 

"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.

A repetition(or rep) is one "movement" basically. An example would be doing 1 push-up or pull-up. Most of the time it is used when talking about lifting with weights though.

A set is a number of repetitions. If you did 10 push-ups, it would be considered one set of 10 reps. If you did 10 push-ups three different times, it would be 3 sets of 10 reps.

Any other questions?

Thanks.
How fast would you do each rep in exercises like bicep curls and chest flyes? And how many reps and sets would you recommend?

If you're trying to build muscle, i'd say 2-3 sets of 8-12 reps with about 80% of the total weight you can stand.
