Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

What, right NOW?! Implants.

Otherwise, flat or incline/decline db press, incline/decline barbell press, boatloads of food, and patience. Give it a month to see some progress, give it six months to be filling your t-shirts out considerably more than before, give it a year to perhaps get another couple of inches of thickness there, 3-5 years of constant progress and food intake to get MASSIVE pecs.

a couple of years ago, i had average pecs and i started doing lots of pushups (100 a day or so every day) and after a couple of weeks, everyone in the restroom during physical education asked me how i pumped my pecs that much. anyway, i was 16, at that age you need to be a bit more ripped than average and you are considered muscular:)

anyway, with bench presses, you should start noticing considerable results after a couple of weeks, if you work hard and eat enough. after a couple of months, you'll be really content about yourself, but in order to get massive pecs you have to work out regularly for at least 9-12 months.

Depends what you mean by massive. What I call massive takes a good 4-5 years of training to achieve.

For your beach boy pecs maybe a year's all you need.
 

"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.

I have had problems with my pecs alot and the way which works best for me is incline db presses, alot of them. I can recommend dips leaning forward too. Don't abuse the weights, keep good form and they will start to grow. Mine are finally growing now. I'm so happy.

Along with the presses it's vital to do squats and deadlifts. It will pump those suckers full with GH.

ye, incline/flat bench + db presses

i used to bench the same amount every week and couldn't break through, until i got a spot who'd help me on the last 3 reps til i absolutely couldn't press anymore. a lot of guides say it's wrong, but i gained about 10kg on my bench that i otherwise wouldn't have gained
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

For me bench pressing dumbells works the best. Having to keep them straight works your arms better, plus i can bring them down farther then i can a bar.


If your just starting off pushups is a good place to start.

pushups are great. Heres how to take it to the next level:

1. get 2 of those red bouncy rubber balls and do pushups with your hands on top of those. It seems to isolate your pecs a lot better.

Push ups? You got to be kidding.

Heavy compound movements, like bench and dumbell presses. Pullovers and Dips also good. Heavy weights, 6-8 reps. Aim for 12-14 working sets, once a week.

Up your protein intake.

Funny thing is I don't feel my PECS getting flexed when I do incline movement. That seems to work more of the anterior delt then the pecs, but only slightly works the pecs when the bar is down fully.

As far as I've discovered, DIPS are the best exercise for the pecs.
