Human Light Bulb Syndrome

Typically a phrase used for typically novice bodybuilders or gym rats who only work upper-body giving them the appearance of a light bulb. They tend to over-compensate for aesthetics neglecting their legs sometimes entirely. This occurs until enough people have told them their legs look tiny, and they begin to do squats and other leg lifts.
