"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'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.

Are you warming up? Are your kness following your toes when you go down? Do you stretch post workout? And you lifting with the glutes and legs and not with the groin and lower back?

I'd say too much weight and not warming up. If you're not breathing correctly that would affect the stress on your abdomen as well.

Try going a little lighter, inhale on the way down and then exhale on the way back up, then take a second or two between reps and don't lock your knees.

Stretching quads, hams, grion (doing splits type of stretching) inbetween your warmup sets really helps your flexibility and form on squats.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

You Should Never Stretch Before Lifting
some people have different views on that. I need to do dynamic leg swings before squats. And I have read an article on T-nation about the benefits of static stretching before weights. Whatever works best for you.

Dont come up with some bull**** answer. I squat the same aount of weight with better form and less pain, so yes, please do explain. What ... research showed that you're muscles are fiering 16.23% slower on the first rep or something? Basicly loosening up the muscles is only good. Im not talking about a 15 minute extreme stretch session. A brief ten second hold is enough.

DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS FVCKING NEW JERSEY LOUDMOUTH IDIOT. HE IS FOREVER PUTTING HIS FOOT IN HIS MOUTH IN OTHER THREADS AND IS KNOWN FOR POSTING CRAP.

THIS MOTHERFVCKER WILL CAUSE YOU TO HURT YOURSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE.
 

"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.

You should absolutely do a light warmup and stretch before doing anything with any significant weight. Your joints need to be lubricated and warm so you don't rip/break a tendon or a joint.

Don't do fvcking gymnastics before squats though :yes: .

I don't know about stretching helping performance, but doing so beforehand does not decrease chance of injury. Warming up does. Actually you're not even supposed to stretch a cold muscle.

Karmic Law #4: I do all those things to women and i get them all the time. If anything it plays into my hands because it sets up a precedent of me taking my sweet ass time replying back to them. What the heck? Who courts women anyway? And what's the deal with everyone having laws now?

Karmasutra ?? aren't you the guy trying to lose weight by eating 3 cheeseburgers a day. Do the research, stretching before ANY heavy lifting increases chances of injury.

Your joints need to be lubricated and warm so you don't rip/break a tendon or a joint.
thats why warm up...or the same range range of motion with lighter weight.

Stretching after heavy lifting is recommended, good luck karmasutra you fat bastard.

No you don't. But it's funny to have guys try to be contrary for spite. I use the term courting rather than dating because it has no conotation of expectation.

Regarding my Laws, I set precedent rather than follow the herd. These are thoughts and paradigms which I follow and have led to my success. If you like them great, if not go about your business and go another way. I could give a fvck less.

I'll say that there are vastly more brothers who inquire about following The Laws rather than get their panties in a wad or try and flex a muscle.

One can try and try to be learned and still be regarded as a joke. Why is it that noone here takes your "advice" you stupid c0ck?

Re-read or have someone read to you what I said. Jesus Christ you're fvcking ignorant just like every other New Jersey clown.
