Post subject:  The gym and age issues
So I'm 18, and I'm in good shape and I'm constantly in the gym. Whenever I'm there I always see girls I want to approach. I've done it a couple times and have been fairly successful, but it's a tougher place to do cold approach. So one of my questions is what do you think of going up to girl when she's either resting or stretching and saying something like "hey, I'm josh, I just thought your adorable and had to come talk to you". This is assuming she isnt going hardcore on her workout. Also because I'm only 18, I can never quite guess a girls age, so do you think I should just disregard the age thing and just go for it. I just think itd be weird of a girl was say 4-5 years older. What do you guys suggest?

I think that direct approach is appropriate for the street, but less so for the closed-end environment like the gym. Because of this I doubt you will even use it.

Why not tone it down and try:

"hey, I'm josh, I think I've seen you here a few times".

let her proceed from there and calibrate accordingly

Go to www.askmen.com They have a guide on there about picking up girls at the gym. I had the same question a while ago I am a boxer there were always hot girls coming in. I met this one girl at the gym that I liked and I followed the guide with some twists and I ended up going out with her. I would defintely advise against the you're adorable direct approach. Check the article out see what you think of it good luck.

Gunfighter with all due respect I think taking advice from the askmen forum is one marginal step better than taking advice from a woman's magazine. You probably would have had more and faster success not reading that article.

I've picked women up from the gym before, my current gf I met from my own gym.

Don't be direct, you'll blow yourself out. Bring up an incidental "are you prepping for a competition?" "mind if I work-in with you?" "you look like you know what you're doing i cant seem to get this exercise straight any pointers?"

Just don't stare at their tits and ass as you'll come off as every other guy. In the gym most girls have their bitch guard up (headphones on, face down, walk really fast from machine to machine etc..), you've gotta come in under the radar and demonstrate you mean no threat to her. If she's non responsive leave her be she just wants to workout. You can introduce yourself and then get gone, let her be and over time intiate her bit by bit.

I know what your saying a lot of their articles are entertaining and that's about it. The reason I mentioned that is because of the original posters adorable comment. The article they have on gym pickups actually isn't bad ibasically says don't be a meathead,gym stalker, and take sometime to make her comfortable with you before you make a move. I thought it was a pretty decent article.

I find it better to reccomend things to her/tell her she's all over the place (if shes been moving around), or ask her if she plays any sports/goals. With all that being said, you'll have her open up with the help of a smile and a few jokes. This can lead to having her spend time with you and say hi. If you're fit, tell her to JOIN you and number close later. I don't cold apporach like what I bolded, there is a fine line between a gym pervert and a gym PUA. Cheers.
