I've been weighting patiently until I could bodybuild the courage to try a pick up line on you.
Would love to say Gym will fix it but, that phrase has been ruined forever.
Squat on my face is too forward too, ignore that.
Say she has a lovely set on her.. Then point to the machine she's on.  |

I would clock an exercise which you both have in common e.g. training traps ... then engineer a "bump into her" moment at the water refill station or if you're training on a bench next to her just say "excuse me, i'm having trouble with my posture/form and don't feel like i'm getting anywhere with it, do have any advice on best form and repitions?"
Most likely shes not a knobhead and will either say she struggles with it too and there is your conversation ... or she will give you some advice.
Say thank you and leave her to her workout .. If you cross paths when leaving you will have a "bye and thanks for the advice" quick second chat.
You've now got at minimum a hello, hows your workout going/what body parts you doing today/your advice worked and i can feel it much better conversation and develop it from there.
This is just something quick which come to my head, hope it helps. |

Tread carefully on this one, if shes interested you'll catch each other's eyes, just smile, look away and look back. If she is still looking and smiling suggest a friendly hello is in order. And if that progresses to a poditive response, maybe I've seen you here a few times, training for anything, etc. If shes responding and smiling then its either bite the bullet and ask her out or a friendly see you again and keep the conversation flowing next time you see her. |

Don't 'engineer' anything.
Unless I'm in a life-threatening situation I don't want anyone approaching me during my workout. Though of course if I'm resting between sets it's ok to ask me how many more sets I've got to do if you want the machine I'm using.
If you happen to bump into her in one of the social areas in the gym, then you could strike up conversation, but keep it very bland and vanilla. Her reaction will let you know if she'd like to engage further. Remember women have very few safe spaces where they can just 'be' and you have no idea what she may have had to go through just to get into the gym every time you see her there, so be mindful that she may not view interaction with you (or anyone else) as welcome. |

"This is true and apologies if "engineer something" sounds terrible .. didn't mean it to come across like that .. bas choice of words. "
That wasn't aimed at you specifically. I was simply trying to emphasise that if any approach is to be made it needs to be done naturally and without any obvious intent. Clearly OP has observed the individual in question so may well already understand whether (and how) they interact with others in the gym environment, so will hopefully factor that in to his decision over when/how/if to approach the object of his desires. |

You know it won't go down well but you still want to do it?
Have a think around that for a minute or two. |

As I was scrolling, I was thinking how to formulate a reply. You typed it succinctly 😊 |

"Sad to say, after typing this I haven't seen her in the gym again but dont worry people im still motivated. 4/5 days a week gym sessions.

I was expecting this to be the beginnings of something romantic |

"Think this is where autism changes are noticed...what is wrong with just saying hello, I like you and can't keep my eyes off of you...
"
That would be likely to make the woman feel extremely self conscious while working out. |

"Well thats a reflection on her not me. People get to choose how they respond to things. "
You might consider how your words might make people feel under certain circumstances and when it's appropriate to voice them. It's worth remembering that people also have a choice in what they say.

"And you don't see how all of these so called rules are only put in place to control peoples ability to connect to each other?
"
It's not a rule.
There's nothing wrong with saying hello to people in almost any situation. It's what you say afterwards.

it certainly has, a lot of things are seen as less appropriate than they once were
