Very based, normally I spend the first five minutes after walking in with greeting the regulars (from boomers to cardiobunnies) to ask how they are doing and to catch up, if they are not in a set or anything.

Gym is good for social gains as well

If you don’t talk to your regulars you’re an autist. Like not much but just a bit here and there in passing, shit about form or exercises. If you don’t talk to them you open yourself up to ridicule, avoiding interaction entirely with people in your immediate vicinity screams weirdo and that’ll bring attention to the actually weird stuff you do in the gym.

Does this apply if I've been walking on the same trail for months, and see the same people constantly, but avoid eye contact and act as if I don't see them?

I have talked to some of the regulars before
One of them wasn't happy and after that started leaving me alone and he made sure so I would see him go and talk to other people

One of them made it clear he wants nothing to do with me. The others are chill
The women are afraid but they walk around me freely like a lioness in front of a lion

I consider myself to bit of a regular at my gym. I always fist bump the front lady and always see roger at the elptical he loves that thing haha.

This is the most feminine thing I've read all day

Yeah you're that guy. They either think you're self absorbed and other people are beneath you, you're an asshole, or a weirdo creep.

You can change this by simply nodding at people for a while. People like to know that they're acknowledged. Try it for a couple of times and see if they respond. You can escalate from there if you want.

meh
i talk to some of "bros" if i see them since i see them like 2 days a week maybe,
but its not like i spend hour talking
quick chat for 30 second and get under fucking bar

some jokes here and there or convos between sets
but yeah gym is a place where you exercise body not your social skills

>walk into gym
>shake hands with everyone
>some small talk before working out
>say goodbye when leaving
This is what people do in my local gym. I love my gym.

kek, I saw this two girls giggling looking at me squatting and OHPing in squat rack, they then came closer and sat to a legpress machine which is near squat rack, all they did was looking into their phone, chatting a little and checking me out when I wasnt watching. they were like 17 though, but it felt great anyway

Exactly the same with me

"Ay! Roger! How's the wife?"

Like a fucking sitcom, kek

You have to stop your workout everyone time someone enters the gym to shake hands and chit chat? Sounds shit to me

>they were like 17 though
What's your point, faggot?

This is retarded. There is no base requirement of familiarity with regulars. You wouldn't just be friends with some dude you see in McDonalds or whatever frequently. I'm not saying don't make friends in the gym but you're not obligated to.

>walk into gym
>"eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"

>>“Ay roger, how’s the wife!?”
>>“She’s dead”
>>“Atta boy!”

I don't want to talk to people in the gym you retarded faggot I just want to lift.

absolutely Based

You sound like an 18 year old sorority girl.

i worked out at a small cellar gym when i was a teen
everyone knew and recognized everyone. Small talk was common. Apparently me and my friends became known as "the guys who only deadlift"

Now I work out alone at a commercial gym. No one speaks to anyone and no one cares.

where to find guy heaven?

i laugh at normies like you that just talk and talk and talk and talk and make no gains

t. powerlifting elitist

All those alienated urbanites ITT
Get over yourselves, make friends, connections, get job offerings and talk to the qts

>”Good to see you again mr. Bond.”

If this is not your gym experience, you are an autistic fag.

or just someone who wants to get their session over and head home

Most people at the gym are tradie boomers and Zoomer in uni. Who tf is giving out worthwhile job offerings at a gym??

Found out I’m known as the mean looking guy at my gym. Feels good mane

My gym is full of absolute mongs who shout their conversations, have no consideration for anyone around them, throw dumbbells and leave shit all over the floor.

Literally why would I talk to any of them and why should I care about ridicule?

The only person in there I like is the dude who sings to himself.

I Know every single regular that comes to the gym ,trainers and receptionists included. and am on talking basis with them. its natural to talk with people who share similar hard work on the same place with you. You are just autistic if their greetings annoy you.

>walk into gym
>shake hands with everyone

was a good one today boys

My gym is full of niggers and wannabe chads trying to compete in who's fucked the most women.
They have nothing in common beyond liking pussy.

minute worth of greetings interuptining his routine
stop, get some help

>walk into gym
>weeb guy who had a broken leg is doing chin ups
>operation werewolf guy is screaming while doing deadlifts
>roided 40 year old is looking straight at his own eyes in the mirror

How the fuck am I supposed to make friends here

Unironically know a couple people that do that. They’re still dyel and skinnyfat

>walk into gym
>take a lap around the cardio area
>tell all the bunnies "Ladies you are looking good today!!" then just walk away

>tfw fucking love boomer memes
>tfw starting listening to out of touch every day now
boomer life is good lads

I've never been a fan of this. I don't mind people nodding to say hi but I'm not a big social person, especially at the gym. I don't want to have a full blown conversation with you, I just want to get my lifts in and go home.

Why wouldn't you listen to Out of Touch even if you weren't a boomer? Great song

Front lady says bye.


I say HI
Panic ahh I mean I mean bye. Bye.
Walk away awkwardly hitting my head.

All three examples seem nice

Only if you barebacked it

shout "bye" when leaving gym, people shout "bye" back

I go to the gym to distance myself from every day bullshit, small talk is the last thing I want.

I’ve been going to the same gym for 6 years and have never talked to anyone

This is why one of the reasons why I moved from a mom and pop gym to a big commercial one. I want to get in, do my business and get out. So annoying to be beraded by people who have 3 hours to spend at the gym somehow.

Noice

how do you know they were 17?

>two finger salute
Living in the country I learned to do that out of habit and now I always do that even when people are waving at me.

100% this.

kill yourself beta faggot

>then just walk away

Get a load of this guy. Like you need to give people on this board more shit to be insecure about. I'd say the vast majority of people at my gym just focus on their workouts and don't talk.

you got one as well? We have two really buff fuckers that punk around the skeletors

bullcrap, nobody gives a fuck, if you're the type of guy who doesnt say hi or talk to anyone then people leave you to your training, no one ever talks shit on the autists that go to my gym who don't say anything, because no one cares. Fags on the other hand, everyone makes jokes, gym bros, PT's random chicks. Pretty funny jokes to

kek, based

Sublime post. I admire your skill in farming (you)s

Of course nobody bothers people mid set

I give everyone a firm handshake at my gym
My home gym.
Where I lift alone

youtube.com/watch?v=4JwBaLrgzUY

I chat with the PTs and talk shit about the gym mongoloids or the swarthy indian guy that works out in jeans and smells like shit.

My rule #1: dont talk to people
I dont care if they think im a weirdo, i dont go to the gym looking for friends.

>the dude who sings to himself

Thank you, I'm glad someone appreciates me

Damn he cute af, would eyeball furtively inbetween his sets

That's not your hand you're shaking...

I live in oakland and half the black guys hate me cause im white and the other half are total bros. If youre one of the haters, get over it. I didnt do anything to you.

Mog them niggas to the max, bro...

In my gym it's common for regulars to nod at each other. Those who train mma or boxing also touch hands and chat. Young fellas respectfully great the older guys. But it's highly unusual to berate, bro-science or give unsolicited advice - unless someone does utter bullshit or an old regular shows some 16-years old newbies some basic form. It's a gym with a lot of working class/blue collar guys, some tech/IT-students and almost no women.

>I enjoy the unwritten etiquette of a fight gym whose owner competed and teaches basic values to his trainees

Fucking lol

i literally started because of that stupid
>walk into boomer gym

I have (formerly) paranoid schizophrenia (they removed the classifications for schizodisorders and lumped us patrician paraschiz in with the other freaks), AND general anxiety disorder, and the gym and also the dojo is the ONLY place i can function as a normal human being. It's like being patrick bateman only when I hurt people I get into trouble :(
