In this short YouTube monologue, fitness influencer Eric Roberts sarcastically attacks the claim that holding onto the treadmill while walking on an incline somehow “holds on” to body fat and nullifies calorie burn. He jokes that this idea is the "dumbest thing" anyone could do, then clarifies that using the handrails for balance, injury recovery, or fear of falling is perfectly acceptable. Roberts also criticizes online “butt sniffers” who shame people for using the treadmill’s rails, positioning himself against body‑shaming and misinformation while maintaining a tongue‑in‑cheek, influencer‑style delivery.

If you're holding on to the treadmill during your incline walk, this is by far the dumbest thing you could do, and here's why. Most people don't know this, but when you're holding on to the treadmill, you're also telling your body to hold on to your body fat as well. No, seriously, I'm an influencer, trust me. It also makes any steps that you're taking not count. My feet are moving, but this is just imaginary, and I just hope to God you know that I'm kidding. If you have to hold on to the treadmill when you're doing your walk, Whether it's because you need to balance, whether it's because you've had an injury, whether you're just scared to fall, that is in fact okay and not the dumbest thing you could do. Because the dumbest thing you could do is listen to these butt sniffers on the internet trying to shame you for holding on to a treadmill. Give me a break.
