How do you walk?

Post Reply New Topic

I walk tall. I don't want to be a target because I walk funny.

Plus, it's natural for me. I retain good posture.

Up straight, sometimes fast.

I walk with a bounce- always have. Been teased a lot when younger. I guess I tend to walk on the front of my feet and my toes.

Funny thing is when my son was only two, my mother-in-law noticed he walked just like me (most of the males in our family are on the spectrum).

I walk strange, at least that is what people have always told me, as if "my legs were attached in the other way around", what ever it means. Somehow opposite, I guess. I had to follow rehab for it age 3, but I still walk strange and 20 years of classical ballet made me find a solution for it, but I constantly have to think about crossing my legs more and "release the hips", but since I am conscious about it, I stumble more than before.
My arms are or stiff (the left one more than the right one) or I just "attach" them both to my handbag or one at the handbag and the other one in a pocket.

I walk on my toes a lot. I don't know why.

I have been told that I walk like a lumberjack, a caveman, and a man from 3 different people at different times in my life.

I tend to walk fast, because I feel more stable that way. I feel more likely to trip on my own feet when I walk more slowly. I have a determined walk. I have to get where I'm going before I forget what I'm going there for.

Interesting....I think I would look like the opposite of a lumberjack. I feel like my walk is androgynous because I keep my upper body and head as stable as possible instead of swaying naturally.....like chicken head tracking.....I also walk fast, I have mini competitions with people behind me and usually win

My walk isn't incredibly unique. I have long legs so I take very long strides when I walk. My feet are parallel while walking. My arms also tend to naturally swing. On occasion, I'll pick up my feet when I walk.

I walk

- Fast
- Without swinging my arms
- I curl my hands up when I'm overloaded; usually near my shoulder. If I'm really overloaded one of them will end up curled against my chest.

When I was a kid and a teenager I walked with the supporting weight on the outside of my feet, and I was quite laughed at. The outside part of the sole of my shoes were very used in the process, enhancing the effect.

Now I corrected the position but I walk with a slouch and a forward head syndrome, I have back problems as a result.

I walk a bit awkwardly thanks to my dyspraxia, but otherwise just normally

What do you mean by curling your hand up? sometimes I find it very comfortable to hold a shoulder with the opposite hand, it this what you mean?

Kind of hunched over with my hands in the pockets of my hoodie, walking kind of slower than average, depending on whether or not I'm wearing my backpack (that things super heavy and extremely unorganized) I'm very small though so I don't look as much of a Tim Burton character as I would if I were tall.
