Walk Like A King

Very based advice.

Every single one of you should apply this to your walk until becomes natural. You will notice a difference in not only your posture, but how you interact with the world and people around you.

Keep at it Kings. We’re all gonna make it.

Thank you for this

Bump. It’s amazing how many “chads” walk with on hand on their phone and the other in their pocket with terrible posture.

Protip: when walking, your shoulders should be over your hips. Doing that does all of this

While standing take a big deep chest breath , this will correct your sternum to completely upright, if your sterm/chest/ribcage is upright your shoulder girdle will follow Try to tuck your shoulder blades into your back pockets, try to keep them against your body tight and not winging

First, puff out your chest.

Then say "TAX EXEMPTION"

Now you must develop a taste for... Freeform jazz. 🤔

hats are good at correcting posture, pull that bill down until you only have the bottom half of your vision, then raise your head until your vision is no longer obstructed.

also, something that OP left off is that bad posture restricts your breathing, that extra bit of air will do more for you than daydreaming about being bigger than you are.

Losers walk like losers because it feels right; because they are.

There's no chicken-egg thing here though, if you start doing better in one area you'll bring up the rest of you to match. Works with wearing suits, for instance.

Thanks, King

Always walk like a man on a mission. Always BE a man on a mission. When you have your head down, maybe listening to your headphones, you are not really living in the moment. You think you are, but you're not. You're living in a replaceable, manufactured moment. But that walk you're doing will never happen again.

You will also just feel better, better posture helps you breathe better, gives you less muscle soreness, makes you more attractive, it's one of the easiest and most important things to change.

I've found that making sure my palms are straight, facing my body really helps. If you're walking with bad posture your palms will face backwards.

No headphones in public is the way to go. It’s way to easy to isolate yourself even outside amongst other people.

I want your hands out. Swinging, they should go straight behind you about half a foot, and cross in front of your abdomen in the front by about the same length, making an obtuse angle at your elbow. Try to swing them with the weight in your arms, don't force them with your muscles or else you risk looking like you're speedwalking/have to take a shit.

Fuck this is the one part I straight up can't do naturally

I’ve been working on this for a while but I feel like an idiot when my hands aren’t in my pockets

This is so true, and something I’ve been focusing on specifically recently! Pump that chest out. Walk like a fucking champion, because you are one.

Currently trying a back support to improve posture and it’s having an impact - both through the actual item and through my increased awareness of my posture. For $10 it’s worth a go.

tl;dr: fix your posture.

Here's another way to help with this advice. OP please add: When you are walking or learning to walk like how OP recommend, you should often look at mirrors or any reflective surfaces while you are treading the street. Stop, take a look at the mirror, watch your stance, posture, if anything's wrong, fix it then move on walking

I've gotten alot better at walking like a king, one time was walking down the street and caught the eye of some cute girl walking in front, she smiled and played with her hair, I kept on walking because I have a girlfriend but that shit never gets old

Hey I'm on this sub too

What’s with the Jew stuff? Since when do we blame all our problems on a projected source? That’s some defeatist shit right there. Work on it.

proper posture makes sense to me, but why hands swinging? if I'm wearing just a shirt of course I'm not walking with my hands in my pants pockets, but when I'm wearing a jacket if I swing my arms they keep hitting the jacket, or I could hold my arms further out to the side of me and look like a dweeb. I like having my hands in my jacket pockets when I walk.

also, if I were CCing it's perfect to have a little jacket pocket snubby. I don't, but it seems like the perfect place.

Any tips for general posture? I spend a good amount of my day sitting at tables and desks.

Do this a couple of times a day if your posture is really bad, it's helped me immensely.

We're all gonna make it, kings.

Posture is incredibly important kings, I used to slouch like 3 inches. Kings, its not a good look at all, and you'll be thankful for the change

To add to this, keep the width of your gate to about a foot apart. It becomes very obvious if you're walking on tile. It will naturally cause your shoulders to swing and your heel hit first. Gives a very confident looking "strut" if you have your shoulders up.

I am reminded of the descriptions of a Bodhisattva. In Buddhism, a Bodhisattva is someone who has attained enlightenment, but chooses to not go to nirvana, and instead stays here to help out (as I understand it).

A Bodhisattva is treats the world as if they are the host, and the everyone is their guest. When you host someone at your house, you don't beg and grovel, you offer kindness and help. You don't bow your back, you open your arms. A hosts never makes their guests feel guilty or like a burden.
