Is the gym a good place to meet girls?
ad
Usually when I'm at the gym, I'm in the "zone" and don't don't really think about anything else but to get bigger and stronger
.....there's this one chick that has caught my attention tho, she's also a fitness girl and she's pretty, caught her staring at me before, but me being an idiot pretended like I didn't give a fuck and went straight back to lifting
- I just recently got out of a relationship, so I'm looking for a new girl.....and I don't want to talk while I'm working out, or when she's working out
Need some answers from some ladies here!

Not sure I go to the gym to lift. Lol but on the real you should try dating sites or what not. It's becoming more and more common meeting couples that met online. Also they have phone numbers where you can communicate with other singles in your area. I know it may seem weird but you never know brother.
Marcel1229Lmfao I like real girls, no online bs, I just got out of a relationship, so I'm trying to find a new girl
I have to say this question is like anything else...is walmart a good place to pick up women...most of you probably said all hell nah...but it depends right...just because a girl goes the gym doesn't mean shes good for you and it works the other way too you might find an amazing girl at walmart. I've dated two girls from two different gyms in the last few years...One was amazing we broke up for mutual reasons but we still go get dinner and chill all the time...the other was a nightmare had to change gyms broke up with her because she was like a stage 50 clinger and went to the gym everyday until we got together then she almost stopped and tried to control when I went...bottom line any place is great to meet girls it just depends on which ones are there
You guys realize you can just pick a diff time to go if you break up withem or ignore them and lift.. I mean you might be hit over the head with a pink dumbell or medicine ball then found days later lifeless in a dumpster with an ez curl bar protruding from your ass but in retrospect that extra cardio in bed really made your ass tone for the crime scene photos
pink??? I use the big girl dumbbells... some of the small boys can't even lift them ... I save the pink ones for them
LOL we dont get many strong women at my gym.. mostly cardio freaks.
Marcel1229What are your maxes? Mine is.....
Bench: 360
Deadlift: 455
Squat: 405 ( don't train legs that much )
Shoulder Press: 245
I don't know my one rep maxes but here's what I got ..
bench 225 x 5 legal
deadlift 315 x 3 legal
squat... I don't my knees are fucked
military press 170
lat pull downs 225 x 8 ..
hittin 2 plates on bench wah!
Wholy hell, I dont even lift some of those numbers. Nice!
thanks winning ;-)
That's a damn good lat pull.. We've got some big boys that struggle to do 225.. I suppose it's what you like to train because even those fuckers are bigger than me.. The most I tried was 280 for 8 or 10 but bumped it down to 220 the past few weeks due to a back injury.. should be ready to hit it heavy next week hopefully >
gracias om.. it is all the pasta I eat ;-)
omg I just had a back day yesterday.. two giant mofos came over to the pull down I even heard one say he's at 252 so they're big boys.. one guy was barely hitting 220 for 8 reps before his head looked like a cherry and he had to drop the weight while the other couldn't even make it to 180.. All I could think of was... "If grrrl was here she'd slap the shit out of them take their pull down away and rep out their max" LOLOL
That is very respectable. Most men I see have no chance of doing that. I would bet better than 80% of men cannot do that.
I out lift most of the guys at the gym... I imagine that's why they don't talk to me .. lol.. rather afraid that I might not put up with any of their bs ..lol..
After looking around the gym I am raising my guess to 90% of men cannot lift what you do.
Marcel1229LOL I'm curious what you look like, and what are your stats?
A wise man once told me there are fourplaces where you should not pick up girls:
neighborhood where you live.
I ve been kinda hanging out looking at the responses and I have to say while I want my partners to be healthy and fit and into working out ... I would NEVER try to pick one up at the gym. Not only that, but I don't go to the gym to socialize.. . I go to the gym to get bigger. I am there with a purpose .. that purpose is not to find a date. Given that said girl was "caught staring" doesn't mean that she wants you to ask her out. Maybe she was just admiring the scenery .. if she wanted to talk to you and she isn't into playing games then she would have spoken to you .. and since she didn't, I say she plays those stupid "oh, I can't talk to him he might think I like him .." games.. you want a girl that who isn't afraid to talk to someone .. you want a girl who if she interested will go after what she is interested in .. not some game playing chic.
To be honest no one talks to me at the gym. I m bigger than most of the guys and lift more than most of them too.. plus I have gothic tagging along so if I don't scare them off he does ..lol...
NO IT'S NOT! First off.. If she focused on her training the last thing she's thinking about is impressing a guy. Second... One of the most unsettling feelings has to be a guy creeping on you while you're in the middle of doing dead lifts or squats. Finally, think about the bigger picture... You go out a few times.. It's great then turns to shit.. Maybe she's a phyco bitch (which 92% of all women are) You will be stuck seeing this chick everyday... Just sayin! Think about it!
Mrs Ice works the front desk and personal trains. I may get and give a little flirting but it is just that, plus they know Mrs Ice will track them down and claw their eyes out. Ain't nobody got time for that!
Now, if I was a single guy I think it would be just about the best place to meet women.
ClassyChassisThere is no right answer. If you want to talk to her, then talk to her. Otherwise you'll never know. I tend to subscribe to the "Don't sh^t where you eat" theory and stay away from the members as well as the girls behind the desk. Because I don't need any potential drama where I train if things go south.
But if you "don't want to talk when you're working out", sounds to me like you're not ready. because if I wanted to talk to someone, training's not going anywhere. It'll always be there, but she may not. And if she's staring at you, that's as clear a signal as you'll ever get that she doesn't mind you interrupting her training.
I've met a few of the men i've loved the most at the gym...so yes absolutely! there is no better place to meet a woman with the same interests.....EVERYONE of my friends has dated a guy from the gym...most women who are into fitness want a man that is too of course its natural.....believe me we NOTICE you all far more than you think....we even create names for you to identify you to our other friends i.e. fireman guy, hot guy, metro guy, dopey guy, shy guy, t shirt guy etc.
p.s. stop playin those stupid games unless shes a teenager shes not gonna find it attractive....just smile at her one day and say hi....then workout near her and either ask to work in with her or just strike up a small relative conversation.....take a few weeks get to know her a bit then ask her to go for a protein drink or grab something to eat...dont be a dog just keep it honest and casual...compliment her say " yr in really great shape and you workout hard.....no "you're hot" crap...be a gentleman....beautiful is a great word too....
k now dont screw it up...keep us posted :0)
the gym is there for one reason only.. lift ..lift ..lift .. and lift some more.. if you wanna chase poontang go to a weight watchers meeting ... all kinda females there that are insecure about themselves RIPE for the picking ......
I don't know about you but for me it is a great place to meet younger woman and to learn about the effects of pepper spray on the eyes and respiratory system.
Hmmmm....I wonder if pepper spray has any anabolic properties.
Once you stopped retching and coughing, how were your lifts? ;)
It would prolly be a great ab workout.
ROFL I too am curious about the effects and the long term damage it may cause.
I try to go when the gym is empty for this reason.. I went two normal hours last week and meet two goregous blonds.. I dont even remember how istarted talking to either of them.. now they just track me down and talk to me when im lifting.. complete distraction but damn its tempting
such problems! so awful!
;)
When you're trying to be a good boy friend it is =p
Makes my brain want to explode
I go to the gym - my girl goes to yoga... I LIKE IT!
I don't date girls from my gym. The gym is my place of peace and I'm not trying to fuck that up. Kinda like the old saying don't shit where you eat!
I think the gym is a great place for people to meet. Sure, you want to stay focused on your workout, but taking a few minutes to chat up a woman doesn't have to spoil your workout.
You can learn a lot about someone by casually onserving them at the gym. You can spot things like laziness, lack of self discipline, sluttiness, etc without even saying hello.
But like rustyhooker mentioned, you might need to change gyms if the breakup is ugly.
I go to a "family" oriented gym, and my 16 yr old daughter almost always goes with me. She has dated a couple of guys from the gym, and says she likes knowing they probably not into drinking or drugs, and she can see if they are respectful before ever going out.
I like it because I can get to know the guy ahead of time and he can see I am big enough and mean enough to rip off his arm and beat him with it if he misbehaves.
RustyhookerGym girl dating. Then when ya break up the drama of her in there with you at same gym time. It'll suck.....
I don't think you have to have all of the same interests. What's important is having the same goals. As far as where to meet women..... Lol I haven't got a clue. I met mine in high school and have been married 24 years now. Good luck bro! I can say however I do get hit on at the grocery quite often....
valhallas bestwhenever she is doing an exercise go behind her and correct her posture and form. Remember to always adapt your workouts to workout by her and make sure she see's you lifting more then anyone. lol just kidding
dude stop being a fuckin pussy and go to talk to her already, even if she rejects or doesnt like you which i doubt, then you my friend have bigger balls then like 96 % of the men on earth, u can also flip the script on her and be like yo im just trying to make freinds at the gym. Also not only is the fear of rejection psycological is biological its in our fuckin dna and the reason is so we wouldnt rebel against the tribe for fear of being rejected.. The gym is just like any other place on earth, at an given moment you can get laid..
General gym talk is a good start, it helps break the ice then take it from there. There's a girl at my gym who has a body to die for, gym chat helped me break the ice now I just need to go in for the kill, lol. Its a shame I only see her now n then.
I think if your bang into your training, having a girl with the same interests is a good idea.
3PUMPCHUMPCompliment her on one of her excercises good form or w/e introduce yourself and take it from there. The good thing is you will see eachother again and again so you can slow play it. The best way imo.
