<\/p>\nEveryone knows that gyms can be great places to meet other singles.\u00a0 They can attract, healthy, sociable people who care about how they look and you’ve already got something in common. But things just aren’t that easy!\u00a0 For starters, most people are plugged into their Ipods which makes conversation almost impossible.<\/p>\n
However, if you know the secrets then you soon start having much better success rates. Here are some of my top tips to help you :<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1)\u00a0 Keep an eye on people’s\u00a0 jewellery.\u00a0 Stay clear of wedding rings, but other jewellery like necklaces and big watches can work as\u00a0 a great icebreaker. Just ask them “doesn’t that get in the way?!”<\/p>\n
2) Join a class. People don’t wear headphones and you’ll get to talk and get to know the other class members, both before and after the session.<\/p>\n
3) Never ever be sleazy or take things too far.\u00a0 There’s a fine line between catching someone’s eye or leering at someone in tight spandex.\u00a0 If you want to be able to go back, keep things low key and friendly.<\/p>\n
4) The best time to approach someone is when they are “between” sets or machines or by the water fountain.\u00a0 I’d never recommend interrupting someone when they are on a cardio machine.\u00a0 It’s dangerous and if you stop them they’ll just get annoyed.<\/p>\n
5) Here’s a great tip to break through the dreaded Ipod barrier. Lots of gyms have free postcards, so find one and write “Hello!” on the back in big letters.<\/p>\n
Walk up to someone you like who is wearing earphones, smile at them and hold out the sign.<\/p>\n
Most people will be amused and intrigued enough to stop what they are doing and chat to you.<\/p>\n
6) Watch out for the people who aren’t trying to hard. They are there for the attention, not for a serious workout so they’ll be more open to talking to you.\u00a0 They are easy to spot as they’ll be walking on the treadmill, lifting extremely light weights or stretching. They are usually also watching out to see who is looking at them too!<\/p>\n
7) Smile. Yes,\u00a0 it seems simple, but many people at the gym don’t bother smiling. When you catch their eye, instead of blushing and looking away –\u00a0 smile.\u00a0 You might just entice them to come talk to you.\u00a0 If you look friendly and approachable then other people will want to come and chat with you too.<\/p>\n
8 ) Go during weekend evenings. If they are at the gym at that time then there’s a pretty good chance they will be single.\u00a0 Anyone in a relationship would probably be with their partners as this is peak “couple” time!<\/p>\n
9) Take time to befriend to the receptionist when you enter and leave the gym.\u00a0 If you bond with them, they’ll often have the inside scoop on who is single, who is dating who and what times the members are usually there.<\/p>\n
10) Become a Regular. Exercise increases your libido and you’ll look better.\u00a0 So, the more you go to the gym then the fitter you’ll get and the more people you’ll get to know.\u00a0 If people see you are popular this acts as “social proof” and they’ll want to get to know you too.
\nGood luck!<\/p>\n
