People stare..and its really annoying

[Deleted member 33117]

There are not many big guys where I am, so I get alot of stairs at the gym too. I think its the weights I use though. Alot of the regulars comment to me about that now. I just block it out though, because if I notice alot of guys looking at me in the middle of a set, it breaks my concentration.

BBF - thanks for the kind comments.
we have quite a few big dudes at my gym (especially between 4:30 and 6:30pm) but, i try not to stare because i know it will only go to their heads>>
"ha, look at all these bitches checkin me out. im a PIMP"

There's only one woman in my gym that has some impressive muscle.

I'm SO jealous. Everytime I see her I think "Wow, look at her! That's awesome!! I wanna look like THAT!". She's very inspiring! And though I DO always look at her, I don't openly stare, that's rude, so I just sneak peeks.

.. funny thing is that in over 2 yrs, i have had maybe 2 or 3 people come up to give me a compliment (not that im looking for it) so that leads me to believe that they are probably just intimidated or prolly thinking "i wonder what that chick is trying to do"

I'm too scared to go up to the muscle-woman at my gym and tell her I think she looks amazing. I feel like she's gonna look at me and tell me to F off. But, I'm pretty shy too, so I don't often bust on up to new people and start talking.

She would prolly not mind at all. Most of us who lift and look like it like to help other women get a handle on it. Cause normally most women won't lift and don't want muscle.

Hopefully I'll get a chance to talk to her sometime.. and hopefully she'll be open to talking back.

It was so exciting for me to "discover" her, after months of working out and not seeing more than 2 people total (both men) squat or deadlift.

Hi Smurfy. I hear what you're saying. My husband notices guys staring at me when I work out. BBF is probably right about the "fantasy" part. I think they also look at me like "She'll fall on her ass if she tries to lift that." But I don't & keep adding weight! LOL

We have one big guy at my gym & he gives me the nod when he sees me. I've told him before to not bother to put the weights away on the Smith machine after he got done & used them myself!

Smurfy - are you kiddin' me? You ARE NOT TOO BIG or TOO MUSCULAR! My wife's more muscular than you and I find it totally awesome!!!! Guy's are checkin' you out because they want you. Girls check you out because they wish they had your arms, your abs, your butt, etc... Plain and simple.

Now come over here and let me spot you on that next squat, from behind of course! LOL!
