Casual sitting

Post by Psilocybe »

Lately I've noticed that when I'm just casually sitting I put my feet into their cranked position. Strangely enough, I find it comfortable. Does anyone else do that? I'm guessing footbag is the cause but just how widespread is this?

ha i was about to explain how at least half the time when im sitting i have one foot in the cranked position (non xbody) and the other foot just sits on top of that one. i've always done it without knowing why. its just comfortable for me, even barefoot.

Haha, I was sitting at my desk while reading this post with my feet crossed under me in the crank position. Weird.

I think its a footbagging thing; cause I do the same thing as well. I even find myself alternating each foot in and out of crank position while I'm standing.

When I play guitar sitting down, and get to a really pumping part of a song, I will stomp on my foot/ankle whilest it is in the cranked position :? . But I have been doing this for like 10 yrs so it has nothing to do with footbag other than the fact that I have mashed my ankle into a nice and plyable state as to get maxed out crank :P
I also do the alternating crank standing thingy mer bob.

I do this a lot. For both feet.

I even walk barefoot with my ankles cranked. It has been a habit for me ever since I was a child.

Casual sitting is so lame. You ankle crankers might be primed for some freestyle sitting. Seriously. Google it.
