Ask HN: Kneeling Chairs?
Has anyone had any bad experiences with kneeling chairs? I'm looking into them as a way to alleviate the long days of sitting, and I'm not sure if I'm missing the 'balance' or there are only positives to see.
In the last few days I started using the full lotus position as my "regular" sitting position. It has a centuries-long track record of enabling one to sit comfortably for long periods, so I think it's a more likely candidate than most "alternatives" out there. Just a matter of getting the workspace adapted to it and getting used to how it feels. I'm cheating a bit using my bed as a backrest, and propping my computer on the rounded footrest of my regular stool chair.
