Cover your head with a bucket or something. If you can't see them, they can't see you
You don’t because they are watching you.
Imagine everyone at the gym but you is a soulless NPC.
nobody gives a frick about you. here’s a photo of a shit I took last week
they are always glancing around. I remember when I complimented some guy on a lift one day and he told me he says he thinks my lifts are really good. Had that happen a bunch of times when I had a conversation with randoms or future gym bros.
If you're ugly no one pays any attention to you. Just like everywhere else you go.
Most of the people at the gym are thinking the same thing. It's ironic. Nobody is watching you and judging you.
Pretend their not wearing any pants.
I don't mind. I mean, I too a. concentrated on my lifts to care if somebody watching me squating (if they dont distracting me ofc).
Also, it is nice to get positive attention sometimes, like a last leg day, some regular counted weights on my leg press after i finished the set, complemented me and gave me a first bump.
I workout in public outside now and only have had 2 mockery incidents in the whole year I've been going outside
You embrace it
me on the left
It doesn't matter. Can you remember the faces of the people you saw last week? They can't either.
>Can you remember the faces of the people you saw last week?
I am not op but yes? Maybe not all people, but most of them, especially at the places which I frequently visit (like a gym).
I know they stand by the rack and watch me lift for an hour and a half like someone waiting for a parking spot lmao.
Put music in and turn up to 110% like an adult

Just remind yourself that nobody cares about you and wouldn't notice or grieve if you killed yourself as you are a useless waste of space and a burden on everyone.
they are watching, just stop giving a shit
I always seek out obvious newcomers, people lifting beginner weight, people who I don't recognize, people who don't talk to anyone and just look at their phones out of insecurity, skinny dudes in big hoodies, etc and stare at them. usually they'll notice me and look awkward as they realize I'm watching their mediocre form. Usually they leave in a hurry, sometimes they'll do like one set and keep glancing over at me to confirm that I'm watching them.
On more than one occasion I never saw them again, and I vary the times I go since I have a home gym anyways. It's a thrill to discourage newbies and make them self-conscious.
what would be the best thing for me to do in this situation? ask you something like "is my form good?"
shout "STOP WATCHING ME" as loud as you can. make sure you're not making eye contact with anyone while doing it
I lift huge numbers so that they're impressed with my strength
Word..
Saw some girls look my way. Mirin... so I hopped on the pec dec so they could mire some more.
By realizing only incels go to the gym so literally everyone there has the same fear.
They're just mirin because I have good genetics.
You have paranoia
I have the opposite problem, I feel like I dont exist, I'm invisible
Lift more than them. Works for me
do you care about some random guy in your peripheral vision? well, he doesn't care about you either
Home gym until you mog
