  1. 1

    Keep your heels off the chair. You can rest them against the back of the chair if you want. The key with this position is balance.

  2. 2

    Balance on the balls of your feet.

  3. 3

    Lean forward and put your weight on your thighs.

    • This can get tiring in the arch of your foot.
    • If you do it wrong, it can cause your calves to tense.

  1. 1

    Put your rear end on the chair, sliding your feet forward slightly. This is the most comfortable of L's positions, but not one he uses very often.

  2. 2

    Focus your weight towards your middle. This position can make you tense, and you may want to only use this position while you rest your feet and legs.

  3. 3

    Keep repeating the cycle, switching position whenever you feel uncomfortable.

      Tips

      • Have a few chairs that you use most of the time, if possible. You will find sitting like L hard in some chairs, as they may be too soft or may not have a back.

        Thanks

      • If anyone asks you to sit normally, give them the excuse L uses: "I have to sit like this. If I sit normally, my deductive capabilities would immediately be reduced by roughly 40%."

        Thanks

      • If you can't balance, or are on a bed, lean your butt against the heads board or wall next to it. If you are in a chair without a back, simply balance on the balls of your feet. This may take practice, because it is common to fall off, resulting in injuries if you fall.

        Thanks

      Warnings

      • Be aware you won't be able to sit like this in some places, like in a car, or at school or work. You could try using the second tip, but sometimes you will have to sit normally, whether it's because of a fussy teacher or boss, or if it's for your own safety.

        Thanks
