Why do meatheads all walk like robots?

[Jfew44]

My lats are big in comparison to my chest, but I cant stand when guys walk like that. I got a buddy who walks like that all the time, I hate to walk with him because he looks like such a tool. No women like a guy who walks like that. Keep your arms in (if you physically can!)

[Z-Ro]

Also, I know for a fact and just for future reference to the guys who do this...that most girls I know laugh at guys like this and totally rip on their ass.

I mean sure you may (may not) be big and cut but if you walk around like a robot and then stop and do some arm pose, it just looks goofy in a non-amusing way. More of a chuckle--pin drop goofy. lol

[jada64]

damn, so puting my arms up doesnt make me bigger? you guys caught me! Kidding, I see it too, i laugh my ass off its great!

[majorpecs]

I for one, get made fun of all the time for walking with my arms out, but in 100% honesty, it's just the way they fall. And yes, it bugs me, but the only one to stop it is to walk with my hands in my pocket or clasped in front of me. So for those of you who have this problem naturally, I feel ya.

ILS = Dudes walking like they are carrying a huge log under each arm

[Bojangles69]

i know the kind of walk you're talking about. whats funny is how obvious it is when someone is putting effort into the way they walk, no matter how it is. honestly the walk i find by far the most ridiculous tho, is the gangster like ankle weight on one foot shoulder drop walk. (obviously im talking outside of the gym now) this walk is usually accompanied by open timberland boots with the tonue touching the toe. that shit is ridiculous.

YES!
The one footed kangaroo hop skip.
And yeh they drop their shoulder too forgot to mention that part. I think they want the world to think they just got shot in the foot is the whole idea.

[Bojangles69]

And for the record dudes who do this naturally people can most of the time tell its natural. People have turned this towards ILS syndrome and by all means feel free to bash these guys.
But I was actually talking about something a bit different. Maybe its really the "guido walk". They don't always have to put their arms out.

I got class right now but I'll try and think of a better way to describe it, although I think some guys know what I'm talking about.

Damn I never realized how popular the inner thigh chafe thing is.
Recently because I've upped my cardio hardcore for the last month, I literally get blisters in between my thighs.

Things I've tried to stop the chafe:
Switched from boxers to briefs, thought too much fabric was the issue. Didn't work.
Shaved my upper thighs, thought hair might be having some abrasive affect. Didn't work.
Changed work out shorts all kinds of different types.

Runners use deoderant stick to lubricate the inner thighs. First time I saw someone before a race rub speedstick on their thighs I thought WTF?? I guess you could also use some KY and the sweat would keep relubing. LOL

[Dukkit]

cuz my massive legs rub against my shrunken nuts. so i have to walk a certain way so that i dont irritate them. i.e...robot walk

[J431S]

this is the best thread of the week; it speaks to anyone who workouts.

Maybe they thought speedstick would help them go faster?

[majorpecs]

I saw a guy in the gym yesterday putting right guard on the back of his neck...WTF?!

I don't walk like a robot but when you get to a certain size and you're working say back and bi's when I'm pumped up with blood my range of motion is very little. I can't hold a phone to my head and can barely take my shirt off so I must look stupid walking around like that but just on certail days. Leg days I can barely walk out of the gym..Oh well I'm not compaining...

Haha I never got big enough to not be able to put my arms down but i have gotten bicep pumps where it is painful to hold the phone to your ear from having them in a flexed positon for to long after a hardcore bi workout.

[MATTMAN01]

Ya I get forearm cramps brushing my teeth after doin bi's!

[Puffader]

I can't inject my glutes anymore. LOL

Life is GREAT

when i was younger, i used to get shit alot for ILS, although to be fair, i never recall actually doing it on purpose, and put it down to the fact that my lats were the quickest thing to respond, so my arms hung 'out' alittle bit. because the rest of my body wasnt developed, it probably did look like i had ILS.

I lived in Magalluf afew years ago, working security right out on the main strip, and id see all sorts of crazy walks, usually the perpetrators were infact meatheads. One guy was small, had a nice physique, and most people would likely have been impressed, and not thought of him as a complete and utter tool, if it wasnt for THE WORST case of ILS that i have ever seen. I mean this guy was practically lat spreading every time that i saw him. I could spot him almost literally a mile off, just because of his walk. One night him and his friend came over to talk with me, the typical "what do you use?" bullshit questions, and for the 15 minute conversation, he never once stopped with the lat spread.

Oh and bojangles, you think about walking far too much lol!

[Puffader]

I always ask them why they keep it flexed all the time. (ILS)
I then spread mine and ask them if it's ok if I walk around like that too. It normally pisses them off or makes them laugh.. I get a kick out of this every time. Problem is they won't leave me alone after that..Whack Jobs!

[J431S]

u guys are great....keep this thread updated with new more observations..

[SnaX]

I see plenty of guys who walk with the air lats, but I'm not sure about the robot walk.

Lol.. AIR LATS!!!

[Red Ketchup]

I don't walk... my nubile virgin slave porters carry me everywhere

Oh wait, I think that was just a dream...

I walk like a robot, but not because I'm a meathead. It's beacuse I'm very awkward.

[Puffader]

Yeah ok...MEATHEAD....Pencil Neck or Meathead???? Hmmmmm, this one is tough…….. I think I’ll take meathead ANYDAY

these are just metaphors..don't be oversensitive....:-)

but the truth here we need to find ways to walk normal again....keeping your hand in the pockets all the time is one to way to go...but it is =becoming ridiculous...any other ways would be welcome...:-0
