Working out in skin tight garb

I see so many looking at their asses in the mirror, or that being the center of focus on social posts.

The good news is, it's only a matter of time before men start doing the same "because it's so comfortable." Then we'll see how easy it not to stare at the cucumbers in the tights...

+1 exactly.

+1 I feel so sad for those women who show up at the gym in full makeup and botox butts. I always assume they are hookers looking for clients.

Aw, is that you, brunch granny?

Are you the girl that pretends to read while standing on the corner?

She is very attractive, and I honestly find it distracting. I don’t want to leer but it actually means if I’m just looking in her general direction, I kind of feel like I have to stare away from here (versus if someone normal looking is in front of me while I work out I don’t pay them any mind).

Is this actually comfortable to work out on, is she trying to dress up for attention? It’s a bright silver color, so very eye catching.

Im an old dad, I don’t want to be checking her out while she works out, but I’m only human. I don’t know what answer I want, I just find it frustrating!

Keep your eyes to yourself mister. She isn't dressing for you. Howegotistical. It isn't always about you. Would you like it if someone told you what to wear?

Most of us know what's appropriate attire for exercising in public.

A lot of woman like the judgement and want to be the one on top of food chain. So basically it is ok for a woman to publicly compete for social status with other, but men aren’t supposed to notice at all?

Just as much a woman issue as a man issue.

OP, did it look something like this? Just a female version?

As a man, I have to agree with this. Don’t make women feel uncomfortable at the gym by looking at them. You’re in control of where and for how long you look. Focus on your workout. What she is wearing is not your business even if it is ridiculous.

Dude here, and I agree with this.

On a related note, a young and very fit/strong woman at my gym was doing power cleans (an exercise I was thinking about adding to my workout). I was totally watching her to see exactly what she was doing, then felt like a creep when she noticed me watching b/c I'm sure she thought I was ogling her. Oh well...

That's when you ask a question: "I couldn't help but notice you were doing XYZ. I'm interested. Can you tell me more/show me?" You avoid the creep factor by focusing on the action and asking for her advice. When she tells you whatever, you say thank you, and walk away.

Yeah, don't do that.

I would disagree. I love lifting and happy to talk to anyone who asks me questions at the gym.

This woman is way too wordy.
I have seen a shorter version of the second video before but this full one is really something. That gal is a legit nutcase. Just wow. Really makes me feel bad for men at the gym. It also pisses me off because men are the majority of people at any gym and I like to have friendly interactions with other gymgoers. I do not want men to be afraid to talk to me just because they will be worried I will accuse them of being a creep.

She is gorgeous.

DHs favorite is the baby blue one, mine is the blush one.

I'd be noticing and picking favorites too.
