What is the best way to go about speaking to women at the gym? I have come across situations where I believe I was invited to talk to a group or at least one female. This occurs all the time when I go to the gym but have no sense of experience when it comes to this type of environment. Am I overreacting and overthinking?

In general there is this women I am attracted to, and I think her to me also. She looks over time to time when I am in the mat/stretching area. I assumed she realised I looked at her once and we looked at each other for a few seconds. Until I noticed when I was stretching and looking forward. She looked at me a few times whenever she and I were in the same proximity.

In the grand scheme I am confused, how do I go about proceeding with saying hello? Do I go over when she is finished with her set or when she is finished overall? And do I act like I am going downstairs to get something or be fully straight?

I am confident and secure. Just lost on what to do in that atmosphere.
