Every man is approachable at the gym...or anywhere else for that matter. If the guy ends up being rude, then he's an a-hole and you should forget about him immediately.

I don't approach anyone in the gym. Let alone guys. I'm happily married, and I work out with DH's co-workers and even bosses.

Been there... done that... wouldn't do it again.
I won't use the gym as a pickup place. Once you start dating inside your gym, it can make things uncomfortable if it doesn't work out in the long run. Then it can be even worse if it doesn't work out and either one of you start to date another member at a later date. I don't like drama and/or distractions at the gym. I'm there for one reason... to workout.
If my boyfriend wants to come and workout with me... that's a totally different story. (although he wouldn't)

The gym is "me time" - a place to work and focus on myself. Time spent ogling other gym members is energy and money wasted. So, headphones or no, forget pick-ups. I avoid social club style gyms like the Plague.

I don't approach hot guys either because I'm married.

umm i think its pretty understandable if ur married, u wont be picking up guys in the gym.
Well i really dont see how hard it can be. You could start off with maintaining eye-contact with the person your interested in. If he responds back with a smile, ur set. Otherwise u could smile too n hope that he gives a positive response. After that either he approaches u, or u create a situation where u could initiate a conversation like standing behind him at the cooler or waiting for him to finish a set.
As far as rejection is concerned, its better to be rejected than to ponder on "what may have been".

I never have/never will approach guys at the gym. I just don't have the balls - plus I personally don't think the gym is a good place to pick up on anybody. I'm simply there to pump up and get out.

I saw this hot guy once and I asked for a spot benching. We've been working out together ever since so I'm glad I asked. Working out with a guy seems to psh me harder for whatever reason. It took a while for me to approach him but I'm so glad I did

i ain't a girl but the headphone rule don't mean he don't wanna talk. so even if he got headphones on don't mean nothin. if he's doing a machine ask him how many sets he got left and continue the conversation from there.

The best advice I have for you is that if you feel he might be interested go for it. I met my boyfriend at my gym. I was always checking him out and I caught him giving me the eye a few times. I am attracted to muscular guys and the gym is really the only place I find attractive muscular guys. I figured why not and went up and introduced myself and a year later we are still together. I wouldn't approach a guy who never made eye contact with me, but hell lifes short...do it!

I don't approach guy at the gym either since I am happily married. I go straight in there put on my headphones and get to work.

Don't be so superficial. Looking hot and being hot are to different things. You could have the body of Adonis and still be a total jerk.

Well I too am happily married but I do notice those yummies at the gym and I cant say that I would be comfortable ever talking to them, even if I was single and looking. I just like having something nice to look at while I workout, some eye candy so to speak, hehe

I don't approach anybody in the gym... The gym is my "me" time, when I relax and unwind, and I'm there solely and only to work out, not to chat or socialise or get dates - I do that elsewhere. Tho LOOKING at some meat never hurts! ;-)

I don't like talking to anyone at the gym, nor do I like anyone talking to me. It disturbs my "zone".

Not all men are chasers. You are missing out on the best - the ones that will not stoop to slobbering around some girls feet, in line like a hormone driven dog fighting his way to the top of a pack of like minded males for a piece of the action from a female (in heat) who doesn't really care who get's it as long as she is taken care of.
I'm probably going to get flamed for this - to cause offense or to show disrespect for girls that enjoy "holding court" is not at all my intention. This is simply how I feel.

Actually Geno I agree with you for the most part. You can choose to sit around and wait for a man to approach you b/c that is what we are 'supposed to do' or you can get off your a$$ and meet some new people. My boyfriend is not one to approach b/c he is shy...even though he was interested in me, we wouldn't have ever gottan together if it wasn't for me approaching him.

Yeah yeah I'm a guy in the Female Forum but I figured you could use another guys' point of view.
I wouldn't suggest approaching guys at the gym. When we work out we get into a zone and it's annoying to get out of routine and what not. It all depends on what mood we are in. Watch for the eyes, if we keep giving you looks but just don't want to come over because we are working out...that is about the only time you should talk to us when at the gym.

Gyms
Since were talkin about gyms i figured i might as well ask. Should i join a gym? I love the way i have it now cause im all alone when i lift. Im a guy by the way and im about 6'2 225. Im making great progress no doubt. Is it worth the money to join one? I can do pretty much any exercise at home except leg presses and i never bothered with gyms cause i get no distractions. The only people that watch me lift are my two cats.
