With a playful smile say – "You know, you kind of look like that lady from Ms Fitness- I can't remember her name - hey maybe you are her - wow this soooo cool… a real celebrity.

Position yourself as an expert on a weight machine next to hers. Start grunting like it'sincredibly tough- with a smile. "Boy- I'm a little out of shape! What about you - workout often?"

Hey I need a female opinion - do you think guys look better in tight gym clothes thatshow off her bodies – or casual, loose clothes?

"Excuse me, but I was curious - how to you keep in such a great shape? What's your secret?" They'll be happy to talk about themselves.

"Excuse me… I feel kind of foolish asking you this - but can you show me how this machine works?" Then strike up a conversation about the exercise form.

“What you think about when you're working out?"

“I’ve been watching you and you seem to really be thinking about things.”

Do NOT ask for the #. Find out what her workout routine is and see if you’d like to share your workout time together. Then you can say, …

“I’ve been thinking about something in particular lately whenever I workout. Most people I bet just think about how they are going to have this great body and all, others think about how they are going to make their next million. What do YOU think about?”

Then talk about how You've been thinking about the way the brain works. How life is a lot like working out.

 

Gym Openers by Roosh V:

What you have to do is go to the machine she is working out on and ask if you can working. Do it early in her set so she doesn’t say, “I just have one left.” After you do a set, say something. I would go with a light sarcastic joke, like, “I can usually do ten times as much, but I’m taking it easy today.” Say this with a smirk or smile.


If she smiles or laughs, that’s your green light to continue the conversation. Since you’re at the gym, I would ask her questions. How about, “I think I saw you doing cardio. I’m wondering if I should do cardio first or weight lift first.” If it’s going well, hit her with another joke. Before you part ways, exchange names. A simple “By the way, what’s your name?” will work. Once you’ve had that first conversation and can talk to her again like you know her, it’s just a matter of finding out what she’s doing after a workout to get a smoothie, where at the end you exchange numbers and take her out on a real date with alcohol.

When to use it

Approach between sets, not in the middle of one, and only when she is not wearing headphones or clearly focused on a hard lift. Quiet hours and the stretching area work better than a crowded free-weight section. Keep the first exchange short and light. The gym is her routine space, so she should never feel she has to be polite to a man who is blocking her workout.

Follow-up

Ask one question about training and listen to the answer: "How long have you been doing this?" or "What's your favourite exercise?" If she answers with more than a few words, keep going for a minute and introduce yourself. If she gives one-word answers and returns to her workout, say "Good luck with the rest" and leave her alone. You will probably see her again, so the way you leave matters. Seeing the same people every week makes approach anxiety worse; a friendly nod beforehand makes the first words easier.

Why it works

Questions about training are natural at the gym, so you do not need a pretext. People like to talk about something they are good at, and a woman who trains regularly is usually happy to share a tip. The shared setting gives you something in common from the first sentence.
