You’re at the gym, working on your gains doing some weighted dips and in the middle
of your last rep you see THE hottest girl walk by in those tight Nike leggings that
all girls wear at the gym.
She starts putting weights on the squat rack in front of you and now you’re awkwardly
staring at her in between sets worried that you’re not pushing enough weight to impress
her.
Now if you’re not subscribed to my channel you’d probably stay in this awkward situation
and just make weird eye contact with her through the mirror before quickly looking away, yeah
you know what I’m talking about, don’t even lie!!
How to get girls at the gym is a question I get asked AT LEAST 3 times a day which I
actually find to be a good thing since that means you guys are actually going to the gym
which already puts you ahead of the large percentage of guys who don’t.
My advice for getting girls at the gym is similar to all the other advice I’ve given
about approaching girls because it’s all the same once you boil it down, and the exact
specifications of each scenario don't really matter all that much.
The reason I address this is because I’ve been reading a lot of questions from you guys
on my Instagram lately and this one comes up A LOT - oh, and by the way, if you don’t
follow me you should at "i am based zeus"- but seriously since I don’t wanna be like
those bullshit pickup artists who drag shit out and don’t give actual advice, I just
wanted to remind you guys to stop overthinking shit and just do stuff.
Most of the questions I’m asked can be answered with a simple “just make a move,” or “just
ask her out,” or “just do it”.
When you’re faced with a girl problem, or problems in general in your life, just ask
yourself, what’s the worst that will happen if I just do it?
Damn ... this just turned into a life advice episode

Damn, I like it.
Speech over, now it’s time for the actual advice.
#1.
When you see a girl you want to talk to at the gym, the number one most important thing
is to make eye contact with her.
Eye contact with a girl is a really good indicator of whether or not she’s interested and wants
you to talk to her.
Her body language is important too but don’t spend too much time thinking about this since
it starts to remind me of those nonsense 20 minute videos PUAs make about the tiniest
bullshit, like "count the number of times she puts her hair behind her ear, then divide
it by the number of times she looks at your lips and then take the square root of that"
like bro shut the fuck up with all that!!
With body language, just stick to the basics, if a girl has looked at you a few times, and
she's standing in a way that she's angled towards you looking like she's open to you
approaching, then it’s a sign she wants you to go ahead and talk to her.
Making sure a girl makes eye contact with you at the gym BEFORE you talk to her is important,
because a lot of people like to be left alone at the gym, so if she isn’t really giving
you any signs, you may end up just annoying her.
(example about TV show pickup)
#2.
Choose the right time to approach her.
Now this may seem obvious, but being a frequent gym-goer, I regularly see guys approach girls
while they’re about to start a set or even in the middle of their set.
I don’t think I need to explain to you why this is a stupid idea.
This is BY FAR the easiest way to piss the girl off and make her NOT want to talk to
you since you’re just interrupting her from doing what she came to the gym to do, which
is to workout ... I mean imagine you're hitting your squats, you're going for a set of 6 and
you're coming up on rep number 5, you're pumped up, you're listening to music, and you're
really into it, and then some dude you've never met before just strolls up and is like
"hey dude, I love your shoes!
You seen Wonder Woman yet?"
Like what the fuck?!
A good time to approach is if you happen to be working in on the same machine that she’s
on, because this way it’s a natural and organic way to start a conversation with her.
This doesn’t mean to just go work in on the machine she’s using JUST TO TALK TO
HER, because that makes it obvious that you're only there FOR HER.
Like if you were doing some incline bench, then flat bench, then cable flys, and then
you walk over and ask to work in with her at the pussy machine, it’s gonna be really
obvious to her that you’re just there to talk to her.
Talking to girls at the gym is all about choosing the right time to talk to her since it’s
really easy to catch her at a bad time in this setting.
Now, in my other videos I've recommended that the right time to approach a girl, is whenever
you feel like it.
BUT, in THIS specific scenario, if she's at the gym, she's gonna be distracted and in
the middle of something, so you do want to time it right.
So some of my favorite times to talk to girls at the gym are:
• If I happen to be using a machine next to them.
I’ll just go ahead and make a funny comment about the TV show they’re playing on the
screens, the music that’s playing in the background, or the wannabe Arnold Schwarzenegger
dude grunting loud as dick in the open area.
• Or, if your gym has a smoothie or snack bar at it, it’s really easy to talk to girls
there since they’re usually just waiting for whatever they ordered and are more open
to talking to guys in that scenario.
Don’t overthink an opening line too much, it’s pretty normal to make conversation
with people at the gym, in fact people do it all the time, so just say whatever comes
to mind based on what’s going on around you.
For example, one time I asked a girl "that looks good, what flavor is it?"
she told me, it led to us talking about fruits, and diets, and "oh yeah my mom is trying this
new vegetarian diet.
oh yeah are you and your mom close?
yeah, just last month I actually went skiing with my entire family and it was great.
oh shit you ski?
I bet I could beat you if we raced.
well I don't think we're gonna be doing any skiing around here, but how about some racquetball?
loser pays for smoothies next time."
BOOM.
Easy.
All you gotta do is start the conversation and let it flow.
#3.
Getting the girl’s number.
So, sometimes you may not want to get the girl’s number the first time you talk to
her, if you see them at the gym a lot and you know you’ll see her again the next time
you go.
Often, just starting the conversation the first time is enough, because the next time
you see her you can say hi and it won't be weird to talk to her again since you already
had a conversation.
So it's basically like the floodgates have been opened.
For example if you’re talking to a girl while working at a machine and you were only
able to talk to her for a really short time then it’s probably not best to ask for her
number right away since unless you're just REALLY hitting it off, it'll just seem forced.
This is a time when it’s best to wait until the next time you see her to strike up conversation
again.
But if you DO get to talk to her for longer than a few minutes, then you should try to
get her number and relate it to something you guys were talking about, for example if
you were talking about this new healthy food place around the area then you can say some
shit like “i’m gonna head out now but give me your number and I’ll text you the
next time I’m going there” boom you just got her number.
If she seems really into it you can even see if she’s free right after and say something
like “i’m heading out to go there now actually, you should come” ... or “you’re
free to come with me” ... and boom you’re on a date right there.
#4.
Don't forget: you're at the gym to work out.
You shouldn't be approaching a bunch of girls every time you're in there.
First of all, you'll screw up your own workouts by constantly focusing on girls instead of
your own lifts, and second of all, if you do it over and over and over you'll just become
that creepy guy who hits on all the girls.
If you're gonna do it, don't overdo it.
And that’s basically it.
In summary, make eye contact, read her body language, choose the right time to approach,
and then go in and make the move.
