Dude no, that’s a creep move and I do t talk to guys at the gym at all. The fitness club I belong to is amazing!
We have many studios with various classes, cycling, outdoor programs, a private lake and private trail. We have outdoor and off premises classes that run the steepest hills and what not.
BUT THE WEIGHT ROOM IS NOT A SOCIAL AREA.
Everyone respects this unspoken rule. I mean, if you have a trainer or you go in with a friend and socialize that’s fine. What I mean is it isn’t the creep zone like at most gyms where guys try to hit on women or stare a woman while she lifts.
Earbuds in means leave me alone. No earbuds means okay to ask the person to tell you when they are done with the machine.
People pay a lot to go to the fitness club and most people are pretty serious about at least one concentration so it builds a house of respect in the weight area.
When I joined I was a long distance runner who picked up Yoga as a serious habit to make sure I had muscle balance and lined it.
I had to start lifting weights to strengthen my arms for arm balances which frightened me because, even at the best gyms, men stare at you in the muscle pit.
I would take weights into an empty studio to workout. But eventually I needed pull ups and just thought it was fun to see how much I could press on the calf muscle equipment.
Since I ran long distance, and uphill 5-6 days a week my calf muscles could easily lift twice my weight.
POINT IS- Guys that talk to you at the gym that you don’t already know are probably being creepy unless it’s a general question or help.
Spot me? This question has to be a joke or question meant to teach younger girls based off of a 1990’s sitcom?
LOL, spot me so I can look up your shorts?
I’ve spotted a guy or two in yoga, being if they fall off their hands I can catch them or help them not fall.
Those are guys that don’t have more than 50 pounds on me.
I would never spot a guy when I don’t lift because it isn’t safe. I’m not qualified to spot. But he knew that when he asked you. He was hitting on you which is gross.
I have figured out their trick.
They make sure it isn't more weight than they know they can lift while enjoying the eye candy and showing off that you are there with them and not any of the other guys... lol
Nope. Which is a good thing because I'd wouldn't be a good spotter.
Nope😘
