My favorite lift is
>The Press™©
Also a little offtopic, but...
Is there ONE good reason as to why I shouldn't just flat out tell my neighbor in my street that I find her attractive the first time speaking to her after seeing her a dozen times without saying anything but making prolonged eye contact?
if you are ugly then telling her so would be creepy
if you are not then its okay
Just ask her for coffee, dude.
For me, it's the neutral grip pull-up.
>crossing your legs
YIKES
I'm not ugly (Jow Forums even said so when I posted muh face)
I lift (6 years thus far)
I have a 6x5 peepee
She always smiles and holds eye contact with me.
I think I'm gona just try for it boys. Whats honestly the worst thing that could happen? She just awkwardly tries to reject me? Big deal, I don't care anymore. Who knows it might just actually work.
You can have a conversation and ask her out without reeking of desperation. Save your autism for another time, she'll figure it out eventually.
Best lift is the squat but I enjoy benching more.
The Squat aka KING LIFT
Just trip her and establish a prone bone position
As opposed to? Spreading them apart?
What’s the advantage of a neutral grip pull up vs chin up vs normal pull up?
As long as you’re keeping your legs together and straight what’s the issue? At least he’s not letting them hang loose
Face pulls. Love them. As for your neighbor, introduce yourself, mention you’ve seen her around a couple times, and you’d like to grab a cup of coffee or w/e. However since you don’t know much about her be on thot alert
I don't go out mate sorry, I just strictly see her on our street when she gets from work or walks her dog.
She seems like a home-body as well, never seen anyone go to her place.
>muh desperation
Is it really desperation? I've been listening to some "alternative" pick-up podcasts and they say that trying to be friendly and not being upfront about finding her attractive is a bad idea because women want to know if you find them attractive straight away so they can then decide if they want to fuck you. Also that taking the "friendly" approach is a horrible idea because women find that far more creepy than just being upfront, especially if they are already attracted to you in a way from looks.
Don't shit where you eat.
She live across the road. In her own house.
I live in my own house.
We're not in some poorfag apartmentfag yuppyfag area.
The fact that you listen to pick-up podcasts confirms your desperation.
>What’s the advantage of a neutral grip pull up vs chin up vs normal pull up?
Some people say it's better on the shoulder, I don't know. Just do which ever you like best.
>I don't go out mate sorry
How do you think you get to know someone?
Listen mate, what they say about taking the "friend approach" being fucking horrible makes 100% sense. They basically explained why so many guys failed with women. The friend approach is obviously fake bullshit that the women see through and may or may not take advantage of you while not giving you shit.
I'm not going to help her move her furniture, or help her do anything around the house. I'm going to tell her that I think she is very attractive, and if she wants to hang out to message me, and heres my number.
Maybe she'll be taken aback, ignore it and actively avoid me from then on-wards, or maybe she'll get horny enough one night and text me to go to place and I'll have a neighbor with benefits.
People act differently when they're out, so the best way to get to know someone is by spending time with them in their own space at home, as that is the real them. I'm not going to some shitty faggot liberal aboriginal hipster coffee shop
My opinion is women get enough ego feeding from men. I've never come right out and said I thought a girl was hot. Personally, I think it's better to keep the bitch unsure. But you can still make plans to see her if she's attracted to you without spilling your shit all over the place. Literally just ask if she's busy one night and have an activity planned. If she wants the D, it literally won't even matter what the activity is - she'll be thrilled no matter what.
>walk up to random stranger
>hey, you're attractive
Are people seriously this fucking retarded? Why don't you walk up and start a normal goddamn conversation, then ask her if she'd like to go out sometime. Telling a woman you find her attractive right away only loses you points. It's like guys on dating apps who open up with "OMG UR GORGEOUS" or "ughhh ur smile!" It's absolutely pathetic and offputting.
>coffee shop
>I don't go out
Oh. Well if you have agoraphobia or something else fucked going on, you should probably meet a woman through a clinic or support group mate.
So much autism. I don't even know where to start. I just hope that you start forming your own opinions when you hit your twenties instead of listening to some retarded podcast.
You can express interest without using a "friend approach" while also no going full autismo. Have a little tact user jfc.
With neutral grip you work on your biceps more but thats pretty much it.
Incline DB Press.
You should not do it the first time you meet but if you do couple times just invite her over for a coffee and if she needs help with something just offer the help.
Later you can tell her shes very atractive to you and you'd like to go out somewhere.
>I just hope that you start forming your own opinions when you hit your twenties instead of listening to some retarded podcast.
I'm 30 going on 31
Explain, there literal is no other way. Women are extremely elf conscious about their looks, and if I make her aware I think she is sexy then she will automatically feel more confident around me (or creeped out) Either way...can't know until you try.
It's not my favourite lift but it feels like the one true lift doesn't it? Putting all that weight above your head, there couldn't be a bigger statement.
Framing
"I'm not usually this forward, but you look really cute/good. Would you like to grab a drink sometime?"
Yeah you'd like that wouldn't you, you fucking whore
It is the one true lift. It would be my favorite if I hadn't fucking stalled on it.
Press or pullup. They feel really good.
>asking
No, tell. Let’s grab a cup of coffee
I really don't understand stalling. Change your programming. Do more reps/sets/variations/etc
Alan Thrall says stalling is your own fault..Eat more, sleep more, and if need be do more volue, and you'll get it up.
Wow, thanks man. It's so neato to hear from a guy who has never ever stalled on a lift.
Wtf
OMG. Stop. Own that shit. If you're going to be upfront, don't preface it with some pussy-ass remark like that.
Holy shit you're pathetic next time you see her you walk up to her and tell her you find her attractive and ask her out for a drink. But you probably wont do it because you lack confidence and dont have the balls. Otherwise you wouldnt here be whining and making a Jow Forums post. Also whats with "You can only really get to know her in her or your own personal space", yea thats maybe true but you usually dont get to that level right away
OHP is a trash lift
>t. I've got tiny shoulders
Why the fuck do you mean never stalled? For context, I've ohpd 190@180. It tool a long time to get there.
You don't ever stop making progress, you just make smaller progress.
I mean if your just trying to add 5 lbs each time that has to be the absolute dumbest method of trying to raise a lift I have ever heard of
I beg your fucking pardon. what the fuck is wrong with you. You are the worst fucking thing since sliced goddamn bread
SAYS WHO?
I feel like your expecting girls to look way more into it than they are.
In their head, prefacing it like that makes then think that you find them so attractive that you would be more assertive than normal for her.
But you do care because your a nice guy! :(
godspeed user
>nice guy
Ive never bought a female a gift or given one money
Ive never helped a female with study or work
Ive never helped a females with chores or heavy lifting
Don't know where you gathered the idea I was a "nice guy", I actually completely disregard any woman that isn't interested in me sexually, and if I don't get the sexual interest right up front then I don't bother.
My favorite is power snatch too bad it's useless
Deadlift
And OP reading through this thread, it seems there’s too much confusion.
Do you just want to fuck this chick? Because then your approach of telling her she’s attractive right away would actually be appropriate. If you’re attractive and she thinks that, and she’s a slut who’d give it up right away then you’ll be in her bed the same night.
If you’re trying to potentially date the girl then you need to entertain her. Make her laugh or smile enough and then in the heat of the moment ask her to hang out.
With neutral grip you've got the least amount of pressure on your shoulders and wrists.
U euphoric, m8?
I don't want to date her at all, I don;t want a relationship/GF at all.
Also, this chick is like 40+ years old, but shes fucking hot, fit and attractive, Thats it. It would be so fucking awesome to have a sexy neighbor that we're just using each other to get off, that's goal right there.
I'm too autistic/immature for a serious relationship , dont worry about that im well aware.
OHP, closely followed by bent over rows
dumbbell reverse curls
So you’re talking about a milf?
Ok that’s a whole different dynamic. Is she single? Previously divorced? What’s the deal? Mature woman are a different ballpark. Typically more straight forward and less game playing. Depending on her past, however, it could also be the extreme opposite.
Pretty sure she is single, never seen her with anyone besides her doggo.
Don't think prev divorced because we've lived on the same street for 10+ years and ive never seen her with anyone.
I actually had a crush on her 10 years ago when I was 20, but I sort of forgot about her, now that i'm 30 hence why I assume shes 40+, because back when I was 20 she seemed like she was 25-30
>i cant lift more than 95 lbs with my tiny girlish shoulders so the lift is trash
Oh my God, you've fallen for the PUA meme.
Dude, DO NOT do that. This is literally the fastest way to make a woman who would otherwise think you were cute run for the hills. One day you'll thank me.
For me it's the deadlift
Kek. Underrated post.
Also, deadlift. Progression is finally back on track after a couple of months of disrupted lifting because of finals.
Log clean and press.
Just ask her for coffee dude. If she says no let that be the end of it, if she says yes then who knows what will happen. What you don't want is another "what if..." for the deathbed.
Well if she’s single and hasn’t ever been married she’s likely to be looking for something serious by now. Like I said she’s mature, so less game playing. However you said you’ve practically have been neighbors for that long, approaching her like a complete stranger would actually be creepy.
You could go for the straight forward thing because I said, if you’re just trying to fuck then you want easy girls who would respond to that.
Given the context, however, if I were in your position, I’d wait for some convenient circumstance that could start a funny conversation. Maybe helping her out with something, then say something like “you know, we’ve been neighbors for years but we’ve never really spoken or go to know each other. Wanna get some coffee/breakfast/walk in local park”.
I’ve only ever been successful with the straight forward approach once. Using the context around me and the girl was always much better.
He wants to just fuck.
Girls that give it up easy are sluts.
Sluts are typically not very smart or even deserving of much courtesy.
If he’s direct (without being a dick) it would weed out the easy sluts that would fuck right away, which is exactly what he wants.
So it does make some sense
Don't corrupt a nice thread like favorite lifts with your autistic shit. There is nothing more retarded than cold approaches. Know that if your autistic ass attempts that, she's going to entertain you out of fear of what you would do otherwise, and when you're gone she's going to make fun of you with her bf or friends.
t. man whose gf keeps a running tally of all the dipshits who try this with me and a couple of our friends
That photo is shit nobody holds the bar like that
