I say bring your female friends to the gym often to let that girl know you are female friendly and then go in for the power point presentation about yourself and why she should pick you.
Thank me later for this. If you don't have living female friends blowup dolls work also.
I love this thread.
You could also try working out in nothing but a Speedo. Or maybe have a custom tshirt made that says "Wanna Hump?".
Maybe you should ask her if she's Kara Goucher. To which she'll reply "No, Kara is busy in pnw ultrarunner's bedroom right now".
I cringe at the oblivious lameness of the OP. If a girl had the slightest interest in having you come up and talk to her, she'd make eye contact, and remove her "iPods" for a while.

And what is the difference between the trainer guy and you? Pecs, deltoids and biceps bigger then a can of tuna.
Bigger than a can of Tuna..... who says that?
So? How'd it go? Have you talked to this broad yet, or are you still deciding for the 500th time how to approach her?
My buddy talks to anyone in the gym, even one's with IPODs. We call them SPDs - Sammy Prevention Devices.
If anything, she prob hangs out at bars in the hood (what's your hood?). So when you stop running at the gym and go home. Get your emaciated ass off the couch and check it out. Otherwise SAC UP and go with any suggestion off of here.

I agree with this advice. Just spend a few hours making a powerpoint presentation of yourself. Make sure to use all the cool powerpoint tricks you know because girls dig that. Have pictures and words coming in from all sides of the screen. Have flashing lights and sounds. Try and take a picture of her face. Photoshop her face and your face onto a picture of two people getting married. Make this the grand finale of the powerpoint. She will want you.
I say hurl. If you blow chunks and she comes back, she's yours. But if you spew and she bolts, then it was never meant to be.
Just found out tonight at the Y from a trainer there, that the young woman is getting MARRIED next month!!! Then she walked in! And I heard her talking about trying on hair extensions for the wedding and it was so much fun!
Well if that is true, then you had better make your move soon. And I mean REAL soon. Sounds like she will be off limits in not too long.
Nice job............a year and a half and you still couldn't talk too her. You will now be single for the rest of your grown man life.
It's not that I never talked to her for the year... I remember I held the door for her once and I was like "oh here you go," probably mumbled that actually. And she never talked back.
And I stare at her a bunch. Never got the "oh I see you looking at me and I'm interested in getting naked with you too" look.
Bullshit!
It's a bummer this didn't work out for the OP, but how to talk to iPod-treadmill-gym girls is a valid question.
My suggestions:
Pull the fire alarm at the gym. Everyone will evacuate except her, since she won't be able to hear the alarm over the iPod. She'll then realize that you and her are all alone in the gym. She will then be overcome with desire. Then sexy time will come.
Sneak up behind her and unplug her treadmill, then catch her as she falls backward. Look at her with your best "WTF just happened?!" face. Being held there in your spindly arms, she'll be overcome with desire. The result? Sexy time. (Warning: In the event she falls forward and slams her head into the treadmill display, then just casually walk away. This could be construed as assult.)
Get a friend of yours to go over and start harassing her. Then go step in. Challenge your friend to kung fu fight for the girl's honor. Proceed to kick the crap out of your friend by utilizing a series of devestating roundhouse kicks (Note: Don't use a good friend for this.). Seeing such a chivalrous display, she will be overcome with desire. Sexy time will be inevitable.
Show her you're culturally sensitive! Stand directly in front of her treadmill and begin studying your Rosetta Stone. Which one? You should customize this for the girl. Asian? Then Chinese. White? Then Russian. Black? Then Jive. Seeing how worldly you are, she will be overcome with desire. At this point, sexy time will be unavoidable.
There's a Rosetta Stone for jive? Damn, I need one of those.
You just wrote 2/3's of other (not funny) given advice. Not very helpful in this situation.

So, you're saying you can already speak jive?
Well then, it is I who should be coming to your for advice, good sir!
However, I refuse to believe that anyone who has mastered the complex and beautiful tongue of jive has any difficulties getting women. Something isn't right here.

That's a horrible idea.
You know in Love Actually where the flash mob symphony pops up at the wedding? Do that with all the old ladies on the ellipticals whipping out trombones and clarinets and shiz, then ask her to marry you.
Live happily ever after.
I would just run on a threadmill beside her and just go all out until you literally collapse in front of her. When she comes up to help you ask her is she an angle and tell her you think you have run to heaven. Talk about your running and tell her you are training for a big race. Bonus points if you are wearing a marathon finishers top. She will respect you straight away and know you are great. Compliment her. If she was also on the threadmill tell her she looks fast for a girl or if she was lifting weights tell her she looks strong for a girl. Girls like compliments. You don't have to mean it of course. Find out what music she is listening to and tell her that you bet she is a better singer than x(x been whatever crap she is listening to)
