Surprisingly often I see guys in the gym, which have a totally jacked/trained upper body but untrained legs.
The first times I saw a guy like this, I assumed perhaps there are some medical reasons to not train the legs, but by now I saw too many guys like this, even sometimes in a group, for explaining this.
These guys know obviously how to train and I just wonder why you would invest so much time/energy in your upper body w/o doing a minimum for your legs. It also seems not too functional; what good is your upper body strength in real life if you cannot use it for lifting something heavy, because your legs are too fragile? Further, it looks very unbalanced to my eyes and usually the stars/models have a more balanced look, so I don’t even understand where these people get the inspiration/trend.

They do it for the looks. They think others don’t care about legs and they don’t like training legs so they don’t. Truth is exactly how you said it, it looks extremely unbalanced and most women/men I know actually prefer people with a nice lower body.
The flip side are women who only train lower body and it’s the exact same thing. They look lopsided.
As for you mentioning using strength to lift irl stuff, very few people these days lift for functional strength. It’s for health and looking good 99% of the time now. Usually that’s mentioned by people who don’t really work out which is interesting now that I think about it.
Women who focus on lower body, even to extremes, don’t look silly like men who focus on upper body to extremes.
They all look silly regardless of gender or area focused. When one part is lopsided it’s incredibly noticeable and silly
Thank you very much! Really a strange tribe of people, who only ‘care’ for one half of the body.
Funnily enough I do strength/cardio primary for health and functional reasons, that it looks better is just a nice bonus on point of it. :-)
Cause they only work out their “Glamour Muscles”
Woman like big arms.
