waist bender

Definition

The compromise move of aging metalheads and concert-goers who still want to headbang but lack the spinal flexibility and neck durability of their younger selves, so they bend at the waist instead.

Example Usage

I used to full headbang at shows, but now I'm stuck doing the waist bender move because my neck can't take it anymore.
