What's up guys,

I'm making this post to get opinions on workout partners, I've moved pretty far away from most of my friends who seriously lift and working out alone is a bitch, i mean i go in and handle business but i miss the motivation and competition of having a workout partner.

How do you guys stay on track and motivated in the gym? I mean i have no problem pushing myselfand getting what i need to get out of a workout but theres just that element missing.

I'm not a really social guy i don't really talk to random people in the gym so i haven't had any luck there with getting a workout partner and all my friends are about an hour+ away now since i movedfrom the bay to sacramento
I don't mind solo workouts but from time to time i like to have that push and challenge, its motivating and you can really see where you stand against others... my question i guess is how do you approach strangers to lift with them without being a fucking weirdo? Lol
