    People stare at me, not sure why. Sometimes it makes me feel self conscious like im doing my workouts wrong. I'm fit, but im not rippes like other people. So why would they stare otherwise? Not sure.

    Do people look at you at the gym when you work out? How do you respond? Are you one of these people who just stares at people at the gym? Personally don't like it when I notice people looking at me. So many things to do, so many things to look at, don't stare at me.

    This is one reason I don't do gyms. I have a treadmill at home. I was always too intimidated by people in the gym and it seems like the area where the treadmills and climbers and bikes always are just overlook the areas where the weight machines are so I would feel like all eyes were on me when I'm sure they weren't, lol. :D I always hated that. I prefer to work out alone.

    Nope. If they are I don't even notice because I'm concentrating too much on not falling off the treadmill.

    :D:D

    Lol this feels like one of those YouTube story time videos. "The day I nearly got assaulted at the gym!". In reality: A dude looked my way, turns out he was waiting to use the machine I was using.

    You never know until it hits you. I was on elliptical and then noticed something in the background. I turned my head and almost fell off the machine. A dude was standing 3-4 feet behind me, staring directly at my butt. The identical machine next to me was empty

    When I'm at the gym, I don't mind people staring... I could careless... just block them out.... You have a pretty face, take it as a compliment!

    It wouldn't bother me if someone looked. The next time this happens to me would actually be the first time!

    I'm totally oblivious if someone is checking me out. I'm usually focused on my treadmill session or lifting.

    I just don't see how one can train with a ring getting in a way unless ofcourse it's a cardio session.

    This is true if you are lifting a decent amount of weight. I had to take mine off after a couple weeks of starting to lift weight for serious.

    I glance around the room between sets. Whomever is in the area gets a look. Not on purpose or with intent it's just what my eyes do. Sometimes a woman will glance at the same time I'm glancing, it happens. I did catch myself staring once, I was measmerized by her shoulder definition while she was doing a lift. It was unintential and I didn't even realize I was doing it, but if she saw me in the mirror probably would have thought I was creeping.

    Stare back. It's the only way. Like a creepy stare.

    Yesterday there was this super hot girl at the gym... Like super hot... So fit, thick bum, thick thighs... and these huge fake boobs and damn did she look good (I might have been drooling and I'm straight)

    She was wearing a super tight tank top and no sports bra. The tank top did little to hide her boobs and after a few muscle ups she was slipping us the nipple...
    I couldn't help but stare.. damn that girl should be famous she was that hot.. and now i wan't big tits like hers..

    But this is the first time I've stared at a girl.

    There's a girl... I would characterize her as fit... cute... the way she moves through space... pure grace... watching her on the stairmaster...as she cranks it to like 12...and ends up running up the steps... and the way she runs on a treadmill... I can't help but watch the way her gait...her legs move in such a way I can only describe as fluid just the right amount of extension and heel kick ( I used to be a middle distance runner in school)... I would have never thought that I could be attracted to just how a person moves... I can't help but stare... meh... I see people looking my way all the time... I always make eye contact and smile at people... sometimes a woman will look back and smile... sometimes that split second flirt occurs for both of us... sometimes I get the "what are you looking at creep? look. I find that sooo freaking hilarious. We're all just strangers to one another... even here... saw a coupel of women a couple weeks ago... one was a regular... and can only be described as smokin' hot, long thick brunette hair...impeccable tan... long neck... she knows her *kitten* in the gym... anyway... how do you NOT creep on that? ... anyway... her and a frined were wearing matching Tank tops... that said 'F off I am training... That was sooo hilarious... because like who wears THAT much make up to the gym? to a wedding okay... NO.. I get it.. some women don't leave the house without at least eye liner...


    So... the moral of the story... what does it hurt if someone looks? they aren't stealing your soul... it would be like caring what strangers think about you...and the truth of the matter is they/we actually don't. and even if they did... that doesn't change the world you see.

    I am a people watcher at the gym. I don't get caught staring much. Just a glance is all I need.

    I don't mind if they glance, but not staring, maybe they are interested in learning. I had one guy approach me to ask where I learnt some of the exercises I was doing because he had never done them before. There is a staff member who actually brings a seat over and sits watching what I'm doing and I told him last week he gives me the creeps so unless I'm doing things wrong and need advice, can he stop lol. So yesterday he walked past with his eyes covered trying to be hilarious

    Sometimes at the gym, like when I’m doing dumbbell curls facing the mirror, there is really nothing to look at during or between sets.

    Two days ago was back & bicep day. There was a girl working out parallel to me. I could not help but glance over a few times at her. She wasn’t what one would call “stunning,” but there was just something charismatic, charming, and graceful, about her. She wasn’t dressed to the 9’s, but she had beautiful dark eyebrows and dark hair, she had some slight acne scars, but that only made her more alluring/intriguing. Her body was blessed with curves, but her gym outfit did not try to exploit any such feature (though she was wearing tights, which is how I noticed the curves). I could not help but to glance at her a couple of time through the mirror (no stares though).

    I guess it’s just because I’m a guy.

    I hope this doesn’t sound too creepy.

    I know people look at me at my gym bc I'm one of very few women who lift, so I stand out among the slew of guys curling and grunting when I head for the squat rack. They don't stare, but they notice me enough to compliment me on how much I've increased in strength and cheer me on. I saw a newer guy one day last week who clearly didn't expect me to be able to lift as much as I did, but I could see his face in the mirror and saw it shift from skeptical to surprised to definite respect. That works for me! By and large though, everyone's busy doing their own thing and the only people who get stares are the ones who are taking tons of gym selies without actually working out or the ones farting around while people are waiting for the equipment they're lounging on. Fortunately there aren't many of those.

    I stare at people when they have insanely poor form, when I'm trying to figure out what they heck they are doing, and that girl with the tight *kitten* and legs doing squat in tiny little shorts (she smiles when she catches me).

    I think it's mainly because I'm super self-conscious at the gym and that's maybe the reason I think people are looking at me? Idk.

    You're beautiful. They're checking u out. :)

    When you're doing a couple of dozen sets and you've got 60-90 seconds between sets, it's inevitable that many of us are going to be glancing around just out of curiosity and to pass the time. I'm a people watcher wherever I go so I look at everyone for a few seconds here or there including the women, and readily admit that if you're in good shape I'm going to linger a little longer. I am always interested in the types of routines people are doing, whether their form is any good etc. I do catch people looking at me too once in a while and I'll give them a little smile and they usually nod or smile back. I hope my buttcrack isn't showing during those deep squats :o

    To the OP, my apologies, but if you were in my gym I'd probably go for a second or third glance...human nature and all that... o:)
