I've been working out in the morning before work and really putting this into my daily routine so I can be presentable to mature women. I've seen a couple cougars at the gym that I'd like to approach, but I don't want to seem like a pest. Sometimes I see the same ones unplanned for just happened to be working out at the same time.

What do cougars think of being approached during a workout? What do I say to let her know I'm interested and looking for an older woman and not just one my age? I would think you're really in there to exercise and get out, but that's not always the case. Is this a thing to strike up a conversation here without being awkward in order to set things up outside of the gym? Do any cubs have experience with this and advice? Open to both cougars and cubs.
