Flexibility

[-:Undertaker:-]

So a question for you all.

I noticed something lately, and it is that none of my friends (same age) can sit with their legs folded underneath them with bum sitting on their feet. I often sit like this as I find it comfortable. So I got them to try and... they just can't do it.

So I wondered how common is this? Can you do this? Do you do it? Have a go!

I'm an asian. So, it's easy for me. I think XD

[lawrawrrr]

I can and love sitting cross legged, and with 1 leg underneath me, it's how I usually sit in fact!

I also can get my leg behind my head

so i'm quite flexible yes

[despect]

This is literally how I sit anyway, I find it comfortable but others always seem to ask "omg how are you not uncomfortable?!"

I used to be a gymnast, competed all over the world.. so you'd think I'm flexible.. well once upon a time I was, stopped gymnastics when I was about 15 or so, and since then have lost such flexibility.


I can still sit as you are describing, and sometimes do, but often not for long before it becomes uncomfortable for me, mainly because my leg decides to go numb and i get pins and needles
