Hawkeye understood what I meant.
My comment is about when you ride your motorcycle. You shouldn't be putting weight on your wrists/arms/hands. Nor using your back to hold your torso up.
I know it's counter intuitive. I've been told to correct my posture for years because I have a tendency to slouch/hunch over being really tall. Then I started doing track days and my riding coaches are telling me I need to break that posture rule and hunch over supporting my upper body with my abs. When I do this, it does wonders for my riding as my arms are no longer fatigued and I'm able to ride my motorcycle more effectively.
