"Picking up" ladies at the gym

I'm one of the those guys that hits the gym to workout... not to socialize. I get to gym... put my headphones on.. and get to work.

There are many fine ladies at my gym. I do notice that they get approached a lot by various men.

To the ladies..... do you enjoy when men strike up a conversations during your workout? Would you prefer to be left alone?

To the guys.....is the gym an appropriate place to meet a potential date?

My last long term relationship was with the front desk girl from my gym... hehe.... so I guess it can happen, but my question was more geared toward that hot chick doing lunges that every guy is staring at.

I prefer to be left alone, and most of the guys do not talk to me, but stare. I give off a don't bother me vibe, plus being able to leg press 600lbs helps keep them away.
 
use your head...if you see a chick eyeballlin you or smiling of course ...go up and say hi. now if the chick is all serious , eyes straight ahead the entire time..then dont even bother with the beatch.

I dont see why the gym is not an appropriate place to meet women. Personally, when I am at the gym I try to stay focused on my workout. I normally have just enough time to do what I have to do, so I cant play grab ass. After my workout, if I have a few minutes, I may approach a woman if I think she is interested.
 
If she's fat. She'll love all the attention she'll get. Don't be a douche that starts making geigh talk to the hottest chick in the club. Not only will every guy be staring at you to see how you are doing (hoping you'll fail) -- but you're gonna annoy this chick who has to deal with this hitting-on shit all day.

For this reason is why there's "women's only" gyms.

Ya you can't say you should or you shouldn't. It depends on the situation.
 
id rather hit on a chick at the gym than in a club. most girls i know that go to a gym regularly are pretty hot and would most likely be out of my league in a club when theyre all done up and shit and have 50 other guys hittin on them all night and buyin them drinks. plus at a gym she could see that im in decent shape as well, in that in public wearing normal clothes i look like an average guy that wouldnt be overly appealing to women anyway.

Thats a good point. Plus I like women who workout and are health conscious. The only bad thing is that NOT ONE good lookiin girl goes to my gym.
 
Thats so right on Marksharks comment. My current GF met at the gym, and two previous ones, said it was such a good thing I cared about fitness that attracted them....

so sometimes they are attracted to similar goals as we are at the gym...
 
Alright... a little update. So.. of course I had a particular women in mind when I first posted. Girl is sooooo fine. Like MS24K said.... this girl always gives the "don't bother me" vibe. I haven't really tried to talked to her or even acknowledge she is in the same gym.

Okay.. so here's what happened.... TOTAL accident.... but just wanna share this with some bros.

It's leg day. I hop on the squat rack. I do a couple warm up sets. I start rackin up the bar and realize I'm one 25lb plate short. Can't find any other quarter plates around. I notice that on the Smith machine next to me there is a 25 plate on the bar and no one on the machine. I figure someone just left it. So.. i grab the plate and throw it on my bar. I do my set. After I'm done... the girl (name is Liz) comes back and acts confused cuz her plate is missing. Kind of embarrassed... I grab the plate and return it to her with an apology. She laughs and apologizes for being away from her machine for quite some time. Well... I seized the opportunity and start small talking with her.. which leads to an early dinner date.

So..... even though she didn't want to be bothered... I just needed an innocent window of opportunity.

Use this accidental tactic sparingly.... don't want it getting out!!!! hehe

You know what I like about High School chicks? I keep getting older and they stay the same.
 
I never talk to people at the gym...I'm there to do a job and not to socialize. I don't get alot of time to myself so the two hours I'm there I really dont want to be bothered. I put my headphones on and lift. :chomp:

and thats whats hard for us guys that are in good shape and work hard in the gym but look average in regular clothes. women at the gym dont want to be bothered when they can see that we are in actual good shape, but at the club only wanna be hit on by guys that are 300 lbs of pure muscle because those are the only guys u can tell are really built in regular clothing. meanwhile you may be thinking, while lifting with your headphones on, "wow that guy is in really good shape id fuck him" but dont wanna be bothered, but if you saw him at a bar youd dismiss him as a piece of shit that is just regular and not too attractive at all. thats whats tough for guys like us (which i probably speak for a minority on this board because most of you guys are on 3 grams of test a week all year and bench 600 lbs, but there are average looking guys out there that with clothes off are in great shape). just putting my opinion on this.

Well it's been about a month... been out with her several times. Last night we did the deed. Im in love. Dam.. im a sucker for firm bodies.

Took a while cuz I started liking her after the second date. Turns out she has a personality. So.. I moved her from my "just wanna bang" to my "possible girlfriend" list. Which means I had to switch to my gentleman role. It was well worth the wait.

met my wife at the gym, although i wasn't looking for her...

i think the gym is one of the best places to meet a potential mate... i mean, you both obviously care about being healthy and in shape, so you already have something big in common...

i was always too chicken shit to talk to the ladies, unless they approached me...

one quick question about this is how do you approach them?? Like what do you say? I think other people around would start staring or somethin and i would look like a total tool. The girl smiled at me and I saw her lookin at me while I was doin pullups but Im too much of a pussy to just go over and start talkin I wouldn't know how to break the ice. Plus I saw some really skinny guy try to pick up some different girl and he got shot down.

I will have to agree here however, if someone wants to chat,....DON'T TIE UP THE EQUIPMENT WHILE WE WAIT !!!!
 
wast of time for me.what i fined funny as fuck is the women that go out of there way to stick there ass or tits in my face and shit like that.there are a lot of girls that go to my gym that i can tell are not there to work out.most of them are marred to.but they go there just to get gys to look at them and most likely get one of them to fuck them.lol its just plane wrong.I just try to ignore them but some times they will go to extreems and try to show there vag to me.I made the mistake of looking at this one broud when she was bending over in frunt of me.she looked bake to see if i was and there i was looking at it.lol the bitch follod me around for like a week trying to get me to look again.then she was trying to ask me things about working out.like she gave a shit.it took awile but she finaly left me alone.what a hore.anny women that is marred and sleeps with another man gets no respect in my book.

This is a good point. Put yourself in the girls' shoes---having men hitting on them at the gym is just another way to meet them. Of course, if she seems to be REALLY serious about it, hitting the gym every day at the same time, serious look on her face, etc, then i'd suggest waiting until she's finished her workout and is about to leave....or, when she FIRST comes in the door, to strike up a conversation.
 
yeah thats good info right there...one girl that is mad hot...fabiana...does exactly that..so i talk to her when the gym is kinda empty on a fri or sat...or when shes in a non crowded area and looking over at me constantly...its like a no brainer..if u "think" shes looking at u and is at least kinda curious..trust me..usually she is..
 
thats definately good info...i know good stuff when i see it =0)

there should be more girls..."ladies" like you on the board...


myd..just outta curiosity..when was the last time you had sex?

so if you break up, the gym suddenly becomes an awkward place if you run into her?
what gym you use in colorado?
 
Okay myd, got your PM on having a bad experience with the movie "da vinci code" and an overall uneventful weekend, and you come home to read my intended "joke"...thinking my above joke was not funny (using another whole PM for that as well i might add)...

Let's get one thing straight myd...don't take your shit out on me...I dont put up with women that take their drama out on a guy because they had a disappointing "day."

I heard da vinci code was very good though...im very much into those movies...i still need to go see it, hopefully its not as bad as you thought though. It's nice you're into those movies though, I always liked the types that make you think and try to unravel the plot. I watched "See Arnold Run" on dvd last night, rented it from blockbuster...now that is an interesting movie..lol.

Well guys and gals, this happened to me this week:
Saw a girl at the gym on Saturday who is cute and new to the gym. She has only been there a couple of times when I have seen her.
We make occassional eye contact and say hello at the water cooler.
I get changed and leave and she is right behind me. Once outside, I strike up the conversation. We walk to our cars having gereral chit-chat.
Once we are about to part ways, I ask if she has her phone and I will give her my number. She says she doesn't have her phone but will give me her number instead.
I get the number and go home. This all happened Saturday morning.
Sunday evening I message her for coffee on Wednesday evening. I get a response back around 4 hours later saying: 'Hey I can't I've got my bf's sisters 21st! HERNAME'
I mean, what the fuck? Why give a guy from the gym your number if you have a boyfriend? Funny thing is, she seemed like a really down to earth sincere person.
Fucked if I know what women are thinking.
 
Maybe... but I think its more likely to be boyfriend instead of bestfriend.
I messaged her back saying - 'No probs. You've got my number if you want to hook up.'
I guess we just wait and see...
I just can't understand why the shift. I didn't speak or see her from the time she offered me her number to the time when I messaged her. I could understand if it was a nightclub situation, but it was saturday lunchtime at the gym... its not like either of us was drunk and unsure of what was happening.
 
it might be boyfriend...

she might just not be too interested in her boyfriend and she is more interested in u brotha...thus she gave u her #. Id def. persue her..talk to her over coffee..get to know her...ask her how things r goin with her bf...n whatknot..if she unravels that things r going downhill with him (which i bet they are), then u understand now why she gave u her #...she wants another man...

im no expert, but it seems like u maybe did 2 things wrong...one is u tried getting in contact with her too fast..the next day, when u shouldve waited at least a few days so as not to look desperate, and u asked her out over a text message. girls ive talked to get mad when guys ask them out over a text and see it as the guy doesnt have the balls to call them...but i could be wrong..sometimes its hard to know what theyre thinkin.

More or less the sitiuation... She knows u didnt ask for her number to be good buds.
 
Hooking up in the gym is risky. What if you do hookup, and it doesnt work - its likely not to be some mind blowing profound soul mate experience. Its so fucking akward when you are there to workout and a girl shows up that you banged and goes "why didnt u call me???". Do you all of a sudden have to start training with them if you do start something? Who gets gym rights after the break up? What if she shuts you down, its gonna be akward. Seriously, if you can avoid it, avoid it, or atleast think it through thoroughly.

Of course now and then its unavoidable and much appreciated :chomp: :chomp: :p :p

All that is way too much to consider when thinking about approaching a woman. Sure, its natural to feel some sort of anxiety to approach a girl in certain situations. But thinking too far ahead like this will just screw with your mind. And you will end up losing the courage to approach her in the first place. Your shooting yourself in the foot before you even get the chance to go hunting. Life is too short to see things like that. If the hook-up does go into the shitter, worry about it when it does. Be optimistic, instead of feeling like, "what if...?". Don't dwell on what MIGHT happen. It hasn't even happened yet!

Everyone knows at least one guy that is REALLY good with women. Ask this guy if HE worries about stuff like this. Chances are, he doesn't. Why? Because if it does come to this, he knows he has the confidence to handle it.

And if you do get shut down, big deal. Guys have way too much anxiety about this, when in reality its no big deal. It can even be humorous. One thing you and your buddies can always have a good laugh about is when you, or one of them, got shot down in flames at a party, bar, or wherever. It can make for good stories when a buddy needs cheering up.
 
I meant in general really, I am great with the women, always have too much on my plate when it comes to them. Just I always avoid the gym because of the stuff I posted. I go to the gym to workout, not to pick up girls.

I feel that theres a time and place for it, bars, group settings, wherever, just not the gym. You go there everyday to train and be focused. Its your watering hole, dont piss in it, you'll regret it later
 
I gotta be honest... i HATE guys that hit on chicks at the gym... I just think its so tacky and I know personally, im at the gym so that OUTSIDE of the gym i can have more success :)

However... In college there was this ONE girl that i had seen in the gym so many times and I just thought she was the hottest fucking thing on earth... great body, huge tits, nice ass nice legs... one day (of course on cycle at the time so i felt like the fucking man) I had just done a heavy ass set of inc db's and saw the girl abotu to head out and was like, damn i gotta go talk to this girl... so i ran up to her and started talking... got her number.. blah blah

well about 48 hours later, she was bent over a desk in my dorm room with her thong on asking me to fuck her lol

good times!
 
haha i think im just against guys picking up girls in the gym because most guys have the body to flex and show off in front of them and generate attraction whereas i dont.
 
IF the girl notices you she most likely will make it known..yes I hit on girls there, and yes I actually lift heavy and work out...I'll catch them with eye contact or a quick smile, then that is a start and go from there....if they're not interested they wont make the eye contact and the fake smile will come out...

Its not a bad place to meet people , just dont seem like a creep and keep it cool until you can read her better...
 
I am pretty focused in the gym. I don't talk to anybody when I am training, maybe a brief "Wassup" or a peace sign to acknowledge people that I know in the gym. I do talk to people before and after training though. Tough thing for me is that I can't smile unless I am laughing LOL. There have been many occuasions that I will look up and see a girl looking and me but I can't smile back because my forced smile is like Chandler's from the one episode of Friends, that would scare her more than impress her. How the hell am I supposed to hit on a chick that looks or smiles at me when I can't smile back. I always have the intense focused look on my face when I am working out. I was told by a friend that this one chick she knows says I look arrogant, even though I am very courteous to people in the gym.

- I don't like it, and chances are if man strike up a conversation when he knows fully well that I have my headphones on -- makes me so angry to know that I had sorta stop my routine because of him......... GRRR especially when I'm on the spinner.. !!!!
 
I will let you know what happens today. My story is:

Been going to a gym/health club for almost a year now. For the most part I am very very focused on working out (i do a ton of weight training, cycling and running while I'm there. My workouts sometimes last over 3 hours). However, there is this girl that has really caught my eye. She is very very cute and I can't keep my eyes off of her. She's a very intense athlete and she really runs and stairmasters hard. That being said, today I am going to:

Go up to her, say hello and tell her my name and then say I don't want to interrupt you I just wanted to give you this.

The paper will say "my number is 555-2223, call me text me whatever, but let's talk."

This is the first time I am ever doing something like this but I will let you know how it works.

i notice that girls are really expecting to get hit on all the time. for example the other day i was in the freeweight room in our gym and i went to the regular area to get a drink of water. so i did and as i was walking back to the other room where i was at before i was walking behind a girl who was going in the same direction as me. i dont know if she thought i was following her or what, but it was funny...she was doing curls with the 15s and i was just chillin until she put them down so i could do a set of side laterals, and as soon as i pick them up do do my set she runs out of the room. i walk back up after my set to get a drink and i notice her standing iun front of the other dumbell rack in the other roo mdoing the same exercise with the same weights, she just was trying to avoid me for no apparent purpose. girls are strange.

I have to disagree... The hottest chick in the gym is the best target. Most guys will avoid this chick, running away and pissing down their leg the moment she even glances at them. Just go up to her, introduce yourself and say "Hey, listen if I was staring at you earlier I apologize but it always impresses me when I see somebody that takes such great care of theirselves... blah blah blah - etc

I've been TD'd by more fat chicks in the gym then hot chicks when I approached them - I promise you that. Most fat chicks get a lot of guys hitting on them and - believe it or not - wind up quite choosy vs grateful.
