"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.
Your max bench press.

"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.

I'm not going to say what else is wrong instead I think you should remake the poll using these options.0-49
50-99
100-149
150-199
200-249
250-299
300-349
350-399
400-449
450-500
BTW I'm taking Stats now and I couldn't resist making the chart
"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.

Stats sucks...good luck with that. I can throw up 250 and i weigh 190. I had hand surgery 7 months ago...one day my hand will probably snap.Maxtro said:Sorry bro but this is a bad poll. First of all you shouldn't make the names public. For the record I can't bench 450+ but I'm not going to seem like a wuss for picking anything lower

And EFFORT, niceeeeee.
My best bench so far is a poultry 192.5lbs. Not tested in two months though so hopefully I'm over the 200 by now. Shall see in 4 weeks or so.
I'd like to see some video's people
Many are guilty of not using a full range of motion...I'd also much rather this was a deadlift poll
"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.

playa99 said:lol i dont i can only deadlift 150lbs 1RM lol but my bench 1RM is 205lbs and my squat 1RM is 264lbs,so yeah need to work on deadlift a lot
Let me guess, you used to do bench only and you squat to parallel?
Either that or your just proportioned that way. Btw if you squat to parallel, don't. Just incase you do...going all the way down is where it is at.

Hmm.. is squatting to parallel wrong? (so far I've been going to parallel or slightly below)

i can bench what 72kg? (at least i think the bar was 20kg - that's what someone told me) and 14-15 year olds are benching 160lb+ , damn i'm behind.
my squat and deadlifts are also appalling, lol no wonder my gains were small.

:crackup: really????.....now tell me something. Do you bring the bar to your chest and don't bounce the bar? Can you do it without a spotter upright rowing 50% of it?? How much do you weigh? how long have you trained? What do you eat? I BET your so full of crap. Stop posting, we don't need little kids around here with no knowledge dogging people who work hard. I hope your mom gives you a spanking. :box: :box: :box: :box:FiNs2BeCaUgHt said:
BTW I've always done incline. My max on that for 1 rep is about 200 lbs. I don't know what that translates into for regular bench but must be pretty good.
EFFORT........HOLY FREAKIN CRAP MAN. ughhhh haha

Also FiNs2BeCaUgHt: Idk where you got that 190+ stuff from. Theres a chart at my schools weight room. Its based on Light, Medium, and Heavy Weight people. That 190 pounds your talking about is for 230+ pound freshmen. People over 6'1 should reduce lift requirements by 25% I think, maybe less.
"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.
