Just no.

Girls usually aren't into it - they feel sweaty and gross and unattractive.

A gym is a man's personal space for getting fit. You don't need some girl fucking it up.

You don’t. Unless you already look stage ready mr olympia classic physique you need to spend every minute in there focusing on building yourself up to look better outside of the gym.

Even if she offers to suck your dick point blank right there you should be weighing your options if it’s worth losing the workout, because she’s nothing compared to your potential.

Don't.

The only guy I ever saw do it successfully in real life was a guy that just went up to them and had normal conversations with them and got them on dates after that

He didn't run game. he just got them in his orbit and then proceeded from there

Still, it's a shit idea and most girls hate being approached in the gym

Everyone I have ever asked about this says don't do it. It would appear to have very low success rates and quite high risk of getting a ban from the gym. Women love nothing more than walking around in barely nothing (thirst trap) and then when a man approaches, they 'dont feel safe' (despite being in an environment with CCTV and a million witnesses) and report the guy who then gets a ban (#believe all women). Just don't do it.

My observation of hawt chicks in the gym is that the display that they put on is for the mirror, not for you. They just love the mirror. Their only concern is getting a better angle at which they can ogle their own ass. In their heads, they're dreaming of new shots that they can take of their ass when they get home so that they can post that to IG, and all the likes they are going to get from thirsty simps and bots that simulate thirsty bots to keep the traffic alive. Any dude talking to them is taking away from time that could be spent admiring themselves. This generation of women has gone full psycho in terms of narcissism and vanity.

TLDR: Don't.

Caveat: I haven't done any pickup all the way to fucking since 2004. Married and faithful (so far).

Gym is like work: if you can't be without it, don't do it.

Much like the loss of that job, you risk getting banned from that gym. 99.999% of the time, it's not worth it.

I've seen plenty of guys do this at the gym. One guy in particular, he would approach girls, 'help' them with their exercise and put his hands on the girls shoulder/hip while explaining it. You could tell some girls were uncomfortable with it, others didn't care. He was actually hitting on one of my co-workers who's 17 years old, which was kind of weird.

He's a friendly guy though, and he's dating one of the girls at our local gyms now, so good for him, but I can't help but label him as a creep/weirdo. Personally I won't ever approach girls at the gym, and I advice you to do the same.

Don't.

Although I'm analysing at the moment possibility of 'strangers'. Some gyms give away free tickets to member to share it with friends or have one off access. If you're at given gym 2y it is pretty possible you know most of the faces and by looking at exp level of someone new you can say they are 'strangers' coming only one off. Then you need to analyse behaviour while exercising and off you go. Instead of 99% chance of being reported you will get 50-80%*

I'll put it in simple terms: You have to be Gigachad, otherwise it's a bad idea. (It can work but chances a girl finds an average looking guy attractive while there are greek gods right next to you are quite small.)
