Any gym goers with tips?

I have literally watched guys attempt to hit on or simply talk to women as they work out and be completely ignored. Hitting on women at the gym is a fools errand.

Do. Not. Try. To. Pick. Up. Women. At. The. Gym.

Most of them want to be left alone. At best they want to be your bro. If you "have to" try something... No, nevermind. Don't.

I’m interested in what others think but to me it is a slow play situation like a coworker. Make a comment about something and see if she wants to talk a few times. See if she ever initiates. I don’t think trying to get a date or number on first conversation is the best move.

I feel like it's super important not to hit on people in their safe space

You’ve got to look out for IOIs. Some sexy girls only are there to workout and others are open. See if they hold eye contact and respond to a smile or two by reciprocating or moving close to you.

What NOT to do when you spot a hot girl in the gym: 1) Don't stare at her/ while she's working out. I've had a group of three men staring during a 90 min workout while gossiping about my clothes/my body.

2) Don't interrupt her in the middle of her reps.

3) Don't forget to make eye contact (smile optional) before you approach. If she doesn't make the eye contact back, she probably wants to be left alone.

Tips guys in my gym use: 1) I've been seeing more and more guys coming to yoga. In fact it's now a 50-50 split. Pretty easy to talk to people before and after a yoga class as there's a good team spirit and it's a social practice. If yoga is not for you, a hot guy asked for my number after a circuit training session where I was paired with him.

2) some guys chat to women in the swimming pool: "Glad the pool isn't packed today", "It's been ages since I last swam", etc.

Good amount if them I've seen on tinder during lockdown but that makes sense. Usually I am not paying enough attention because I am doing my own workout. Also hard to exchange smiles while everyone has to wear a mask lol

Yeh I'm not the wierd type to stare at people. I keep to myself. Honestly I am there to workout, I couldn't careless what other people are doing. I've had a couple girls look over and purposely pick a treadmill beside me and once they took a picture of me which was weird. But I was just curious if its worth pursuing or are they just looking randomly everytime I look over or in the direction lol.

I feel like Not trying to be a creep is like a serial killer saying I'm not a serial killer. 😂

Thanks, but most women dont like the slidong in the DMs approach and creeping on social media isn't my thing :p

You just need a convo starter. For example, ask her if she can spot you. Say she spots you on dumbbell shoulder press or something. After your set, say thanks. She'll say no prob. Then just ask her name and go from there. This one is easy, but it won't work for everyone girl because not all of em can spot heavy weights or they don't know how. If she's a real fitness chick who knows what she's doing and can tell she can actually spot you it'll work. Don't expect this to work if she's a newbie or a yoga chick who just does cardio. Another way is to ask her if you can jump in and use the machine she's using while she rests. This can easily transition into an ice breaker without making you seen weird. Only issue, this can only work if the gym is packed or something. So key thing is, you just gave to find a way to introduce yourself and learn about her, without coming off like that's your intent. These are examples of simple excuses to have a convo.

Here is an unique answer. Alot of gyms in big cities can be tagged on Instagram. So if you look up that location tag on IG you can see everybody who take pics at gym. So you can search through the pictures and see if you see a cutie you've seen at the gym. Then you can check out her IG page and do your homework to see if this is someone you'll like to slide into the DMs with. Agree with comments that you leave people be while at gym. If they are publicly sharing their page though it gives you a window to say what's up through IG.

Now, if you wanted to cross the forbidden line you could approach someone post workout and say... "Hey, I am pretty sure I follow you on Instagram". Make small talk for a short minute, and then follow up with sliding into DMs. I wouldn't do it right away but when she post something of interest, like visiting a new restaurant. So then you can follow up by showing interest with restaurant while breaking the ice for conversation.
