        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

        You know, I feel like heels would make this even more awkward than it already is. How do you get any leverage?

          You have to do kind of a combination of pushing down with your butt to get upward momentum, then pulling up with your abs. Then you keep it going with the two.

          It’s hell. And to get up, you grab the edge of the desk and pull. 0/10 Do not recommend.

        I had an abusive ex who had one of those. The times I tried to sit on it, lost my balance, and landed painfully on the floor were, in retrospect, a pretty accurate microcosm for the rest of the relationship.
