What about the late 90's kneeling chair fad?

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 16 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Wow, first time I've seen that! I'm currently half-kneeling on my chair, so I'm kind of intrigued.

It's shit for any prolonged sitting.

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 19 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Yes, but they were excellent for kneeling on backwards, with your chest on the seat when you, uh, had need of that particular position for whatever reason.

Or so I've heard.

From a friend.

...this is the solution to a problem I've been looking for an answer for. Thanks!

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 11 points 5 months ago

It really does work well. Just make sure you're facing a wall or can grab onto the desk. Otherwise you squeaky scoot across the room a little bit with every thrust

With ass on the knee part or backwards bend over, shoulders on the knee part?

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Knees on the knee part, chest/stomach on the ass part, palms flat on the wall, special friend behind you.

This is the answer to questions I didn’t know to ask

These things are great my coworker had one and it looked interesting so I got one for myself. It was great for gaming as it puts you into a more power pose like if you were riding an Enduro motorcycle and since you get tired sooner you are more inclined to get up and be productive maybe
