A member asked:
What sitting or standing position can lead to poor circulation in the foot?

Probably neither one: Sitting on ones leg may cause numbness due to possible compression of a nerve, but it will not cause "poor circulation".

None: At 35 you should be able to be in any position without losing circulation to your feet.
