i friend of mine that i lift with walks around town a lot in his free time and he has huge legs. i like walking around and i think it would probably help my legs as well as just help me get in better shape, but im trying to put on mass. would walking a lot going to keep me from putting on mass/muscle?

yes, distance walking and other endurance activities can impair muscle building.

I would say due to low intesity that walking would not affect muscle gains.
