"Hey... I like the way you ride. How about some dick?"

First of all stop worrying if girls mind getting "hit on" or not. David Wygant said it best and I'm paraphrasing they "never mind getting swept of their feet".
Ok now onto your question. From experience I think the gym's a really easy place to start talking to girls, but really hard to get past a 5 minute conversation, at least the first go around. What works really well for me is situational openers. If a girl's squating/deadlifting mention how your impressed she does "real" workouts. Or ask what kind of work out she's doing if she has something printed out. If you're comfortable with it you could play around with it. If you're lifting really heavy and she's really small jokingly ask her to spot you. If she's using that one machine that works out the inner thigh ask her if you could work in with her. Ha ok the last one is kind of joking unless you really have some balls.
Anyways there's a million ways you could open the conversation but what I think the most important part would be not to drag it out to long. In the end they are there to workout. What I've done is end the convo, maybe ask if they come around often, and then tell them I'll see them around. Next time you see them at the gym its game over.
A couple points. -The second time around I'd try to to catch them either before or after their workout (so you can talk longer if you need) -Avoid starting a convo mid set/cardio (i.e. while they're on the treadmill or whatever) -Start talking to everyone at the gym. Social proof god in gyms and it'll make it a lot more natural (for both of you) when you start talking to whichever girl.

NEVER USE THE "COME HERE OFTEN?" LINE

Yeah I'm no expert yet so pick at anything I said, but I feel like when you talk to them confidently missing on one line doesn't matter too much. It hasn't for me yet.

You probably just say something normal and conversational. It's not easy to recreate that sitting in front of a keyboard.

Be the 'mayor' of the gym. What does that mean? Talk to EVERYONE! Not just the HBs. Talk to the staff, the guys working out, and just be friendly.

Ok so I'll give you my example... Saw this like HB 9 on a bike when i walk in (spanish chick with blonde hair looked damn good) I go into the locker room get changed and come out and she is getting off the treadmil so I pass we make eye contact I smile and say hi but she has her headphones on and didnt really hear me but smiled a waved back and we went our our ways... later like maybe 5 mins after that I go to get some water and I see her on bike right near the water... so I go in front of her make eye contact, kinda wave and she takes her headphones out and then i say Hi I'm ++++ what's your name? She gives me her name and then I ask very generic questions like if she lives around the area and suggested she come out that night but said she had work... I asked if she had a boyfriend and she said no then I said she should give me her number to hang out some time. We exchanged, I think I actually made her text me, and went ways. Later I was waiting for a smith machine and she came up and asked one of the peoples to go next not even realizing i was waiting. When she walked away I made eye contact again and said something like ohh trying to cut the line and smiled. She was apologetic and was like no no no you can use. I used. And then after I texted her and was like I'm done if you want to use. She said no she was about to leave but thanks :). I tried getting her to come out the next weekend but she didn't respond to text, maybe shoulda called. But I was out the week after and saw her at the bar with some dude so I stopped the follow up... but after this post I think I might have to follow up again!
