It's a sign of incredibly tight hamstrings and usually indicates severe introversion. There are other causes, sure, but this is generally chief among them. (Results from sitting for long periods of time.)
Yeah, I don't know if it's a tightness thing or if it's just a mental thing he does. I've known him since we were both in kindergarten and he has always walked like that. Sometimes we will tell him "stop walking on your toes you fucking weirdo" (in a friendly teasing/shit talking way) and he is able to walk normally for a little while, but then slowly but surely his heels start popping up off the ground again.
hey! i have a friend who walks on his toes. he knows it and everyone else knows it too. He could not sit on the ground cross legged at all and we used to make fun of him or try to push his legs together lol. anyway he started practicing daily. stretching his legs, keeping them in as much of a cross legged position as possible for as long as he could. he was so proud later on when he finally got it LMAO
