approaching at the gym?

1) there are tons of good apps for Reddit on the play store / iTunes where you can Edit your post (and the experience surfing on reddit is great on them).

2) NEVER interrupt a work out. Not a set, a work out. Get your shit done (important to show value. You are there to do your business, not pick up girls) and wear dehodorant (as friend of mine told me once: "If we can smell you from the other side of the gym, better not approach").

3) Make eye contact and smile if you/she walk/s by.

4) Good moments for approaching - > the end of the work out, when she is gonna get out you could make a casual running into her // drinking water or filling bottle. I don't think there are many more good moments.

5) be casual. Please don't be too direct at the gym. Starting a conversation on the lines of "hey, good work out you did there. I ve seen you around here before. Are you a regular?" is more effective than anything.

6) Don't patrionize. Don't you dare correct her on any exercise UNLESS she is putting herself in risk of injury (if that's the case please let her know in a simple way).

7) For future questions about a specific situation, go to /r/askseddit and ask there

Edit: just in case, unrack your bloody weights once you are finished.

Edit 2: I will add something. Even if you think the gym is a bad place to pick up, you are wrong. Working out produces endorfins, adrenaline and other bunch of stuff. People are excited and, physiologically speaking, already aroused. It's easier to create positive responses IF YOU KNOW when and how you should approach.

And I really REALLY REALLY recommend that if you have a date with a girl who works out, you both go to run /do some kind of sport.

Kino opportunities (hundreds), mutual - self arousment, endorfins, excitation, etc. With a little bit of playful conversation before doing it, some jokes and kino while, and good eye contact and good game in the end, most of times you will end up making out.

Start by saying hi, good morning etc if you see her regularly.

Don't interrupt her set. If she is on a treadmill comment on the news or show that's on. Establish minimal rapport. See you again sometime.

Next time ask her what she is focusing on, query her exercise regime. Say you come every monday arvos after work etc give her an option to attend when you are.

If she shows up and is responsive she is probably keen.

The gym is not a good place to pick up others. Most people are too focused on themselves/their workouts. As a result, there's a larger chance for things to be awkward if you interrupt or approach others or come off as too enthusiastic.

Most people here are basically saying try to make your interactions as casual and natural as possible and build your "relationship" with her from there. This is pretty much the only way, but its also somewhat counter intuitive because you already have a goal in mind. However it can be done. Just come off as genuine/kind/funny and you'll have a shot.

Some girls venture into the free weight section. This is typically "men only" by the hulk-like dudes groaning for hours in pain to get huge. You can offer to spot them or something. I've talked to a few chicks like this but never really gotten a number here, even though I've picked up chicks pretty much anywhere parks school work the beach amusement park, train ,etc.. Most wear music so it's hard to approach. Seems like the best place. they show up in yoga shorts you can already see they're hot as fuck no need to go to a stupid dance club or bar spending all night trying to find a hot girl.

Never found out how, but I know people use that as a getaway from problems and situations at home, and many times people are on supplements that don't make them so friendly, so I've never tried also a lot of people including me like to use headphones to ignore people. If anyone has a good answer other than at the end of a workout, walking out, or refilling bottle of water I have nooooo clue haha seems like the hardest place to pick up actually.
