Question

One person says it will improve leg strength, another says it hurts in the long run. Which one is it?

Community Answer

It will make your leg muscles stronger, but the lack of blood over such a long time will give you "jelly legs".

Question

What is "jelly legs"? Is it temporary?

Jelly legs is when you can barely walk because your legs have been in an uncomfortable position for a long time. Yes, it is temporary and usually lasts at the most half an hour.

Question

Will this be bad for your back and feet if you sit like this everyday?

Community Answer

It won't be bad for your back considering that all sitting positions will make your back "suffer" the same. It's okay for your feet, but it'll be very rough on your knees. Keeping your knees squeezed like L will damage them in the long-run. Also, your legs' blood flow will decrease by roughly 40%, which will cause discomfort.

Question

Will kids in my school stare at me if I'm sitting like this?

January Miller

Community Answer

They might if they don't understand what you're doing. If people happen to understand, then they might still stare, but smile as well. I sit like L all the time and I do get stared at (and reprimanded by the teacher), but I just ignore them.

Question

Is this physically possible for some people to do? For some reason it is impossible for me to do this.

Community Answer

You may not be doing it correctly. Just try, and if you can't, just sit normally but pull your knees up to your chest.

If I sit like L then my blood flow will decrease by 40% but my ability to deduce will increase by 40%?

Community Answer

I'm not so sure about your ability to deduce increasing, but your blood flow will definitely decrease. I don't recommend still like L for long periods of time.

Question

What do I do if my chair is too small for me to sit on and put my feet flat on at the same time?

Community Answer

Use the other positions or get another chair. Only the third position involves actually sitting on the chair.

Question

If it hurts when I sit like L, does that mean I'm doing it correctly?

Community Answer

It might be slightly painful at first when sitting like L but if you do it on a cushy chair or on a couch then it will be very comfortable. L has been sitting like that for a long time.
