What are your best daygame techniques and openers for using in a gym?

[Greg007]

Putting aside that many women dislike like being ogled by guys in a gym, so attend a female only gym, or attend a 24 hour gym so they can go at odder hours with less people around and also that even if you're in a gym at night, it's still very much like daygame, gym daygame is easily the hardest type of daygame to do successfully and is definitely only for guys with more advanced skills.

Hence why I want to ask what guys with much more advanced daygame skills (who like staying fit and in shape), what successful, field tested techniques and openers they've used and use in a gym during the day, or even at night.  In my case I've had an off peak gym membership (where it's cheaper if I go only between 11 am – 4 pm) and there's a separate room for women to train in, that you wouldn't want to enter, as it'd tick the women inside off.

Trying to open women who are on a treadmill for example, is next to impossible, not just because most are in a zone, listening to music on an iPod, but even if they aren't listening to something, the idea of being tapped or trying to talk while focusing on what they're doing, will be highly irritating to almost all females approached like that and you'd get sworn at, to leave them alone. 

With regards to waiting till a lady has finished her treadmill cardio workout, the gym I'm at, doesn't really have anywhere where you can sit and watch who's on the treadmill, in the treadmill area.  Also standing outside a gym waiting for women to leave, then approach, isn't wise as it'd weird most females out.

I don't know if I agree that its advanced game in the gym, only because I'm not and do it alot.

I have openened a few girls on the treadmill but my main concern is Health and Safety so I mainly go for cross trainer or bikes etc,

Ones I have used.

1) Are those headphones any good?

2) If I am working out alot I grunt sometimes. "I know I grunt but I hope there was no bad language"

3) I walked up to one girl said I like your red top a blue trousers it says to me your a creative who likes to work out....

4) What muscle does that excercise work out?

These may not be great lines but they were all genuine questions/comments at the time.

Basically though I just try and talk to everyone in the gym....

Alright this shit is so good, I only share it with my students but FUCK IT. I love the forum so here' goes:

Sasha - "Excuse me, how much do you charge?"

Woman - "What???"

Sasha "You know, for personal training sessions. I'm looking to get buff!!"

Woman - "Oh, haha, i'm not a personal trainer, but thanks!"

Sasha "Oh, my mistake... you just look so amazing, I assumed. So..... (either go direct, or make fluff talk, whatever you wanna do"

I'd just ask her out after that ...

Sasha "I know this is a bit forward but... I'd love to get together with you sometime. When are you available?"

BOOM!!!!!

With the annoyance of interrupting her concentration (as a lady would have to stop, or some may not and may give abuse for hassling them and/or complain to the gym about you), if a lady is on a treadmill, where others could also overhear what I'd be saying, I don't think most guys would have the balls to be that direct. I personally don't think Mode One methods are workable for daygame, for guys who are just starting out.

I agree it's good to be friendly to people in a gym, but I've found the larger the gym is that you're in (compared to a smaller sized one), the more the majority of people (both men and women) are almost all like zombies for some reason, in that they don't really want to talk, be disturbed and respond coldly, when you try being sociable and say hi.

-  I know this is a bit forward, but I'd love to get together with you sometime. When are you available?

A couple of things, when others overhear what I say (not that I notice), I reckon they would be impressed that I had the guts to talk to this girl.

The concern about a women giving you abuse or complaining is something I have thought about, I leave it there in the back of my mind.   You can't push it as far as the street perhaps.... As it is more like gaming at work.....  But I have never had anyone complain or give me abuse, confused looks is about the worst......

I understand that it can be difficult in a large gym... I found that myself.
 I train in a really big chain called "The Gym"  When I first started there talking to people I explained that I come from a small gym and found it difficult to speak to people in big one, most people feel the same....

I have gone direct the worst response was a women was slightly shocked, even though she said "No" to my day 2. I catch her looking at me sometimes now.

I asked a trainer if she does one to one 30 minute coffee sessions...... She said yes.

I really am not advanced, but have developed a certain amount of social Balls mainly from these guys.

PS: I tend to aproach after I have been on the cross trainer for 30mins cause I'm in a good state.

Dude!  Sasha, I have been looking for a great ice breaker at the gym that didn't involve something lame like "What music are you listening to?"  Why the hell should I care, she probably likes shit like Justin Bieber!  I love the way that your line basically compliments her after she originally thinks you're calling her a whore!  Then sets up perfectly for arranging a date.  Awesome.

I'll write my own post as payment!
